ing dispatch has been sent out about
the position of the next senator from
this district on the question Of Unit
ed States senator. Mr.. johnson is
uninstructed and not in any way
bound by the action Of those in

in any way Mr.. johnson is unin-
structed and has a right to do as he
pleases.

MERGED, CAL, Nov. 15.-The greatest
gathering of dog-tanciers ever seen in
Merced is here tonight. San Jose, Santa
Clara, Santa Cruz, San Francisco, Modesto
and Sacramento are all largely repre-.
sented, and every one of the fifty-six dogs
entered is ready to go to slips tomorrow.
Excitement over the event is running
higher than at any meeting hitherto held
OH these plains. and judging from the
spirited betting going on 1t would be diff
cult TO believe that the owners have felt
much of the hard times so continually
spoken of. Bidding on the fayorites was
fast and furious.
Cronin's Sky ball is a strong favorite, but
Robinson & Peyton's Flying Buck is
pushing him hard for first honors. ]. F.
Grace's Nellie Conroy is well backed, as is
Robinson & Peyton's Master Glenkirk.
Among the Sacramento dogs Stonewall
Jackson, Prince Lief and Little Wonder
are fairly backed for their first courses,
and p. c. Curtis Blackette comes in for
support
Coursing will commence about seven
miles from town at 8 A. NJ. tomorrow, on
Nixon & Broom's land. Every vehicle
in this portion of the county is engaged,
ano it is expected that the attendance at
the meeting will be the largest in years.

CURING TUBERCULOSIS.
Report of Professor Hirschfelder OF
Cooper College Treatment
With Oxytoxines

DR.. j. o. Hirschfelder, professor of cIini-
cal medicine in Cooper Medical College, has
issued very interesting provisional report
on the treatment of tuberculosis and other
Infectious diseases with oxytoxines. In
the outset he asserts that 1t is well proven
by post-mortem examinations that tuber-
culosis cures itself; that it may be &C.
cepted as fact that the body possesses
such powers that, under favorable condi-
tions, an elimination of the disease may
be brought about.
He then dwells on the methods and de-
scrlbes the manufacture of oxytuberculine
and directs how 1t should be used This,
he says, was used alone for a time, out
of late it is employed with oxysep-
sine. The liquid, he says, causes no
greater local disturbance than any indif-
ferent fluid would produce. Thele is no
reddening OF the skin or other signs of
localized inflammation. In few minutes
the Injected fluid is absorbed and the pa
tient has no further inconvenience, there
is no rise of temperature or any other un-
pleasant constitutional effects. Within a
few days the cough and the expectoration
diminish and the most striking effect is
the rapid improvement of the patient.
DR.. Hirschfelder cites mum Der Of cases
treated by this method, and describes in
each the symptoms and the Improvement
until recovery.
