IN MEDICINE AND SURGERY
Professor Magic Has a device for Use With
the Roentgen Ray.

Philadelphia, Pa, Feb. ia novel
experiment with the Roentgen rays has
been made by w. F. Magic, professor
of physics in Princeton college. The
results will be set forth in a paper
which will appear in next Sundays
issue of the Medical News of Pensylva,
MIA.
Professor Magie's efforts are to give
TO the world a discovery which will
vastly widen the usefulness and avail
ability Of the process for medical and
surgical purposes. It is in the shape
of an instrument which he thus de-
scribes:
"A sheet of black paper coated on
one side with platinum bar cyanide, is
placed with the coated side inward
across the end of a tube or box into
which the observer looks, and which is
so fitted 10 the face or so shielded by
cloth that the eyes are protected from
ell eXtraneous light. If this tube be
presented towards the excited crookes
tube, giving the ROentgen rays. the
phosphOrescent paper in the tube CLOVIS
and the shadows of objects interposed
between it and the crookes tube APP
pear upon it. The advantage of this
arrangement consists in its avoiding
the Inconvenience of working in a dark
room and likewise the delays involved
in the process used by Roentgen.
Through this instrument the phenome-
ma of the Roentgen rays can be most
conveniently investigated. Its OBJ
vious applicability in diagnosis has led
to his giving an account of it here. A
more detailed account will be a report
of cases in which it has been used in
the March number Of the Medical
Sciences

BICYCLE SADDLE NEEDED.

A well-known physician, who has
given some attention to the bicycle and
has learned how to ride one, although

wonder in my mind is that more injury

On a radically wrong principle and

where it ought not to be. There Is
one saddle quite widely used for which
the claim is made that it Is constructed

that is true to only limited extent.

Dunrayen's Case is Continued.

New York, Feb. BIT was generally
understood that at a meeting Of the
New York club which took place to-
night, the Dunraven-Defender case
would be settled for good and for all.
Final action, however, was again de-
ferred for two weeks. Captain l.. Cass
Ledyard offered resolutions reciting
that Lord Dunraven had charged that
foul play was practiced by those in
charge of the Defender, and had no
apology, and requested his resignation
as an honorary member of the club.
At this point Secretary Oddie read
cablegram from Dunraven saying that
forwarded letters Rives Saturday,
Phelps today"
As soon a. this cablegram had been
read J .Pierpont Margan said: In
view of the dispatch read by the secre-
tary, it seems unwise that the club take
any action on the resolutions offered
by Captain Ledyard."
He moved an adjournment for two
weeks, which was carried.

BEGINS WITH FREE SILVER
Nebraska Prohibition state Convention
Embroiled Over the White Metal

Omaha, Feb. ia special to the Bee
from Lincoln says: The Prohibition
state convention was called to order at
, O'Clock today at Red Ribbon hall and
free silver fight was Immediately pre-
cipitated. The amendment was to the
effect that no delegate present should
be allowed to cast more than five woes.
There were counties having an accred-
tied representation of twenty-five votes,
like Douglas, and twenty-five, like Lam
caster. There We're other counties in
the extreme northwest portion of the
state entitled to but one vote and rep
resented by but one delegate At the
last state convention Delegate Wolfen-
barger attempted TO get a free silver
plank into the platform and alleged af-
ter its defeat that Delegate Woody of
Omaha defeated the plank by casting
the entire vote Of Douglass county del
eE2tion after another delegate had gone
home. 1t was in the furtherance of the
free silver idea that Delegate Wolfen-
barger now strove to fix things at the
kickoff. Previous to the convention the
state central committee met and adopt
ed set of rules 10 govern proceedings
This was ignored and he free silver ele-
ment Won its fight. This means a silver

HAWKINS MEN AYE ABOARD
New and Better Equipped Filibustering
Expedition on for Cuba.

Expedition On for Cuba.
Philadelphia, Feb. 13-Another Gu
I ban expedition, including about 100 Of
the survivors of the Hawkins expedi-
ton, sailed from New York last Mon
day. 1t was made up by Cubans from
this city, New York and Boston. A
steamer which the Cuban leader here
call by the name Of Englewood. hail
ing from Nova Scotia, is the vessel.
She was leased through a New York
firm of shipbrokers and brought on to
Long Island sound, where she has been
lying at anchor for the last few weeks
She carries to the insurgents 100000
rounds Of cartridges and 1000 stands
of arms
The money to pay for this expedition
came from Cuba a few days ago IN
Cuban circles s97, 900 in Spanish gold is
the figure named. A mistake made in
the Hawkins expedition was avoided
this time. The men were sent in small
parties TO the steamer, and arms and
ammunition IN small quantities, in
stead of loading in bulk as was done
before.
With the departure of the men from
Philadelphia not more than half of the
Cubans who were formerly employed
in cigar factories in this city remain,
over 200 in all having departed for the
island. A conference of prominent Gu
bans was held here Tuesday night and
plans of future action agreed upon.
The main object TO be carried out con-
templates the sending of no more men
TO the island. Only enough men will
be sent to see that the material is pro-
perly landed. The general in command
have all the men they need. in fact more
than they can now provide for They
will also endeavor TO send some heavy
guns, as a number of the leaders are
of the opinion that if they can forti-
fy a seaport the cause OF free Cuba
will be in a much better position to
demand belligerent rights
