BULLET NOW KNOWN
Successful Use of the X-Rays on William

WAS SHOT THANKSGIVING DAY
Since Then One of His Arms Has
Been ParaIyzed--Locati of the
Bullet That Was Causing All of the
Trouble Was unknown Until Ycs-
terday Afternoon, When IA Ehoto-
graph Located Its Hiding Place.

The most signal of recent discoveries
made by science is the mysterious Ro-
entgen, or N-rays. This peculiar light
has already demonstrated that in the
practice Of medicine and surgery it will
become an invaluable factor.
Throughout the world there are now
hundreds of professional and scientific
people who are experimenting with the
seemingly magic phenomena. Among
them are DR.. S. L. Longstreet and Fred
Hummeller, the Photographic artist.
The results of their works are of local
interest,
In DR.. Longstreeets office yesterday
afternoon an interesting and successful
effort was made to locate bullet, which
was lodged in the body of William
Widener, who before being disabled by
this same bullet was an employe of
Schank and Spencer, Spruce street shoe
merchants

will soon be probed for with already as
sured success.
Speaking of the possibilities of the
N-ray, DR.. Longstreet said that the
discovery, while still in it's infancy,
was proving a stupendous aid to medi-
cal science.
It's usefulness" he said, "in diagnos-
ig certain diseases and in surgery will
be almost unlimited. AS it is now the
physician can locate obscure fractures,
dislocations and various deformities
which before were only matter of
conjecture. Several competent author
tiles state that uric acid crystals can be
detected in the organs of the body by
the ray.
August Hummeller is preparing a
Tesla coil for our Use, which, when
completed, will give us over 5000 600
voltage and by the light of such intense
energy we Will be able to detect the
throbbing or pulsation Of the heart, OH

wonderful and valuable ray"

ing and toning. When returned to the
doctors office, where the spectators
were anXiously waiting, the photo
graphs showed plainly the location of
the bullet The lodging place was a
few inches back and above the point
where it entered, the spot being indi-
Gated on the reproduction of the pho
tograph of the %-ray picture, here
with represented by white dot
The photograph was entirely success
full and the deductions made by Dr.
Longstreet upon investigating the pho
tograph are that the ball after entering
took an oblique course upward and in
jured the nerves, brachial plexus, as
they are called, which give impulse to
the movements of the arm.
If these nerves are all severed Wide
ner will never regain the use of his left
arm, but If there are only one or two
of the four or five branch nerves in
jured he may reasonably hope to again
move his disabled member. The bullet

AT times 1t approaches, what pru-

a too close APPROACH to the dividing line.
