a mile from the cotton bins in the

 Williams News: Harlan Bros. have wood steam mill in operation on ore from some claims adjoining the Sun Dance company's property m Yaya- pai county This mill has single stamp which Is operated directly from lhe steam cy finder. It strikes from a I50 to l60 strokes per minute, and with a force equal to 5000 pounds. While the mill is intended to have a capacity of of ten tons of ore per day they are running twelve tons per day through at present. The inventor of the mill, George Wood, Is interested in the claims and is personally super intending the operation of his in.ea- t on. He Is confident that this new invention will supersede the old fashioned gravity stamps.
 The Globe Belt says the most inn portant strike in the history of the Green Valley tpaysonl mining dis trict was made in the Golden Wonder mine, about ten days ago, by Messrs. Home.ley & Shirley, lessees, seam of ore was encountered in winze about 26O feet below the surface, which gradually widened to five feet of solid ore, the. average assay of which Is $20Ngold. They have now sunk over fifteen feet on this body of ore and it maintains it's width and value. The Golden Wonder is the oldest mine in the district, having been worked off and on for seventeen or eighteen years. The principal owners are Mrs. Pyeatt formerly Mrs. Chilsonl and Joe Birchett; one- sixteenth interest is owned by James Homesley. The Golden Wonder has recently been bonded to MT. Derrick, an eastern man, and now that an inn p0rtant body of ore has been struck, the sale will doubtless go.

tion is discovered the sooner humanity will be benefited.
 Following is technical paper writ ten for The Call by Dr. Pillsbury.giving his reasons for thinking that he is on the right road toward the discovery of a cure for consumption:
 TT is now known that instead of bac-
 teria being harmful from their con-
 suming to any marked extent the
 \ proteds of the organism and there
 by depriving any of the organs of their necessary sustenance, the patho- genie action of bacteria is due to the chemical products of their metabolism. either producing a soluble chemical fer ment which splits up the complex pro- teids of it's host. some of the split pro- ducts being poisonous. or the bacteria cell may contain the specific poison as a secre- tion or eXcretion, a product of assmila- tion.
 It should not be hard for us to realize that these little plants may produce poi sons that have such powerful effects when we realize the favorable conditions of the soil and temperature of their suscep- tibe host, both being ideal conditions for the rapid multiplication of bacteria.
 The period of incubation of an in fectous disease is the time required from the inception of the few bacteria of variable virulence for them to over come the natural resistance of the host and produce, in their peculiar way, suffi- cient poison to cause systematic disturb ances.
 Some of these chemical products com bine with certain acids forming salts such products are ptomaines or bacterial alkaloids. If the word ptomaine was dropped and instead the term bacterial alkaloids used. their composition would not seem quite so indefinite to so many: for the better known alkaloids derived from the higher plants as atropine from the belladonnae strychnine from the seed of strychnos, nux vomica, or nor phine from the poppy, are in daily use. and their effects pretty well understood.
 The bacterial alkaloids are, like the al- kaloids of the higher plants. variable in their action in different individuals of species and, of course, vary greatly in their effects upon the different genera of the animal kingdom.
 As an instance of this I can cite s. Weir Mitchell, who has shown that many birds are insusceptible to the toxic action of opium, while a single drop of the aqueous extract will throw a sparrow into profound stupor. Guinard has shown that in the cat morphine produces violent hyperexcitability, great restlessness, agi- tation, Authorizations, dilated pupils, and if the dose be very large tetanic convul- sions develop.
 Harley found that on dogs morphine acts much as upon man. In the horse two to three grains of morphine produce sometimes slight drowsiness, sometimes no perceptible effect.
 This instance of so familiar drug varying so in it's action on different ami mals shows us that even leaving out the question of suitability of soil and assun- ing what is not so. that all animals offer similarly favorable conditions for the de- velopment of bacteria. we can with good reason assume that the poisons developed by the so-called pathogenic bacteria af-

theria bacilli by the germicidal action of the serum. So we have "Aseptolin-E son. and like antiseptic mixtures. The folly of such solutions is apparent when we realize that to inject sufficient to make the blood a germicidal solution it would be death to the blood.
 Koch thought to cure consumption by gradually increased doses of a crude solu- tion of the very poison produced by the bacillus tuberculosis and to produce an immunity such as may be done with the self-limited infectious diseases. If 1t was possible to do this with consumption the patient should get well of himself, for surely the disease lasts long enough. But this has been found to be impossible it would be like injecting morphine into dope" fend.
 Injecting sufficient tubercle bacilli-even dead ones-into animals which have been considered immunized against tubercu- losis produces the characteristic abcess, and proves that killing the bacteria is not sufficient to cure the disease.
 The many preparations Of serum, such as "Anti-tubercle Serum,'' "Anti-phthisio Serum" and similar so-called consumption cures taken from the horses and mules which received repeated injections of crude tuberculine for the purpose of pro- ducing an artificial immunity are no bet ter than similar serums taken from white rabbits which nave as much natural 1nl- munity as is acquired by these horses and mules.
 I believe consumption, the terrible white plague, is curable, but not on that basis. I have separated by modification of Sonnenscheins process an alkaloid from tubercle bacilli in pure culture, but so far have not separated sufficient for full testing When the physiological effects of the pure alkaloid are known it will be an easier step to produce its antidote, which may be organic or inorganic.
 Syphilis is disease having many points in common with tuberculosis in its path ological lesions, but it is considered cur able, and justly so. Its antidote has been discovered accidently perhaps, but still we have a specific for the disease.
 In quinine we have antidote for the toxine produced by the malarial para site.
 believe the day is not far distant when the physician will diagnose the infectious disease to which he is called, not by the fever chart but by chemical analysis of the urine, which carries off these bacterial alkaloids in solution, and he will treat and cure his patient by the hypodermic administration of the physio- logical and chemical antidotes of the known bacterial alkaloids.

Pillsbury has used billions and billions of bacilli tuberculosis In order to get enough even to make small test it was necessary to breed them just as a farmer would breed chickens or pigs.
 This process simply consists of in- jecting a small number of the living bacilli into a specially prepared veal broth and keeping it at a temperature of about 100 degrees. From the tiny speck at first visible in the compound the microbes spread all through the mass of broth In few weeks.
 They were then washed out with al- cohol and water and put into a large jar for future use.
 Of course this washing kills them, but 1t leaves with them all of their or ganic clements.
 Tn this condition the mass of bacilli looks like a jar of corn meal and can be handled in much the same manner.
 It Is from this that the alkaldd is produced. Dr. Pillsbury's method of preparing the alkaloid. Ar poison left

feet only such animals as are susceptible to the action of their specific poisons.
 Rabbits have great natural resistance to the action of tuberculosis. Two white rabbits I inoculated in October, 1897, re- inoculated in November and again in Jan uary with very virulent cultures of the tubercle bacilli did not succumb. One killed in March, the other in May, showed only slight tubercular lesions at the points of injection. Guinea pigs inoculat~ ed with the same cultures died in twenty and twenty-three days with tubercles dis semnated throughout the abdominal cav ity.
 Other instances may be given almost without end and all confirm the theory that the systemic effects of infectious dis eases are due solely to the chemical poi sons produced by bacteria
 It has been shown by elaborate experi- mentauon that animals may become ac- customed to various well-known poisons by the administration of gradually in- creased doses and that the serum taken from these animals and injected into normal animal together with an otherwise fatal dose of the same poison will so null lify Its poisonous effects that the second animal will be unharmed. Further, suc- cessive injections of serum from such ac- customed or immunized animals will pro- duce a condition of immunization against this same poison.
 What this defensive proteid" sub stance is that is generated in the blood to produce this immunity to, or neutralza- tion of, the poison is not yet known but it's effect Is that of a chemical and physo- logical antidote. This is also shown by Nuttall and Lubarsh, who found that the bactericidal power of the animal serum did not correspond to the immunity of the animal furnishing the serum.
 Now since it has been shown that the effects of infectious diseases are due to the bacterial alkaloids in some instances at least and perhaps ferments in others. does it not follow that the scientific treat ment of such diseases would consist in the administration of the chemical and physiological antidotes of the specific al- kaloid. the prevention of reinfection by the local use of antiseptics, and the scien- tific nourishment of the body?
 Neurin is an interesting poisonous bacte- rial alkaloid In frogs very small amounts cause complete paralysis of the extremi- ties. The heart beats more and more slowly and finally stops in diastole. If at this point atropine be injected the heart begins to beat again.
 Behring made a great stride when he used the serum of an animal immunized against the dphtheria poison to neutral ize an infection of diphtheria in another animal; but his followers incorrectly translated his discoveries-thought he had cured the diphtheria by killing the diph-

oning from lobster is much more deadly than consumption. Tn combating this ptomain poisoning medical science sim ply makes use of the old and we'll un- derstood chemical law of poison and antidote,'' which in reality Is nothing more than a certain manifestation of natures lav-balance.
 The nature of ptomain poison be- ing known the antidote has already been found and whenever it is admin istered before the patient is in his death agony" a cure follows just as certain as the administering of quinine cures certain levers by acting as an antidote to the poison produced by the malaria bacilli.
 It Is on these lines that the dreaded diphtheria is cured. The so-called antitoxin that is injected into the pa tient Is nothing more nor less than the antidote for the poison that causes the disease.
 It is on exactly these same lines that
