About Lightning Rods.

Rods, although they may not entirely
protect building, may preserve it from
DolnB seriously damaged. Tho jefferson
physical laboratory Of Harvard univcr.
Blty Is protected in tho following man
ncr: Each Of tho chimnrys is provided
with rods which arc connected with
conductors running along tho caves
From tho corners Of tho roof conductors
aro led to tho ground and arc connected
underground with u conductor which
entirely surrounds tho building and
which Is connected to u permanent wa.
ter supply at loast ton feet below the
surface OF tho ground Iron pipes are
driven to reach this wator supply. This
Is rs nonr an approach to n cugo rs cir
cumstancos would permit.
A trolley car has u lightning rod III
its trolley, which is connected through,
its motor with tho rails and tho ground.
1t is not beyond possibility, however,
that discharge descending tho trolley
arm should refuse to go through tho mo
tor and should seek a quicker oscillatinl
path through tho car. This is not likely
to happen ofton, for tho network of tn,
trolley wiro and tho telegraph limos of Il
town or city, together with tho electric
light wires, separate and divert into
many channels tho electrical disturb
nnco. Tho great increase OF wires in on,
cities serves to protect from great dam
ago by lightning, for many paths ar,
offered to tho discharges, which az,
thus broken up into moro or less harm
less spnrks. .-Profcssor John Trowbridg,

ENLARGED LYMPH GLANDS

| Should 10 Treated.
"What are these Jumps in my baby's
neck?" is a question often asked the
doctor. ,....
Lumps, or kernels as thoy nro often
called, because they feel like grains OF
seeds under the examining fingers, are
lymph bodies, or glands.
Tho system of lymph glands and
tubes covers tho entire body. If it wcro
| exposed to view, it would have tho ap.
poafanco of meshwork. Lymph ducts
| lead from tho skin, from tho mucous
membrane, and from bono to lymph
bodies which arc further connected
with ono another by tho same means
At any point where there is an in.
fiammation, sore, II breaking Of tho
skin or mucous surface, thcro will DO
found open mouths Of lymph ducts into
which waste matter is liablo to cntor
This waste matter sets up an irritation
ane an enlargement of tho lymph bod.
les to which it finds it's way It will
now be easily understood how such an
enlargement or inflammation of tho
lymph bodies always points to state
Of inflammation at some point, pcrhupl
ut q considerable distance from tho
Jumps themselves. Thus Il fclon OH the
finger causes enlarged glands to appear
in tho armpit.
LumES in tho neck may sometimes bu
plainly traced to eczema of tho scalp
Sometimes tho mouth is tho scat of tho
trouble. Largo and inflamcd tonsils may
be present, or tho teeth may be dccaying
When tho ear is tho seat Of an alb
sccSs, either before or during the course
OF purulcnt discharge enlarged glands
aro common.
Enlarged lymph bodies just behind
tho anglo of tho jaw arc sometimes sig.
nilicant of catarrh of the nose and the
adjacent portion Of tho throat.
The existence of enlarged lymph bod.
les for Il few days, or sometimes for Il
longer interval, cannot be said to nc III
itself dangerous. The case is different
when Jumps exist for several weeks or
longer. They become changed in char.
nctcr after this time and begin to break
down and form pnrulcnt matter This
stage, too, is more difficult to cure, ;s
surrounding tissue may become affected
Tho skin over tho glands is involved
and becomes part Of the large soft, red
or purplsh swelling, now called an alb.
sccSS, which either breaks or is lanccd
by tho surgeon.
These cnlargomcnts may become in.
vadcd by tho tubcrclo bncill, from
which consumption cf the lungs or Il
general consumption may develop.
During tho course of an infections
disease, when tho glands in tho neck
sometimes become enlarged, tho care of
tho throat must not bo neglected. The

affected parts will often produce ,,n I'M.

MILES OFF THE
COAST OF HAYTI

Washington. July 22.-It was CAL
culated that Gen. Miles military ex-
pedition against Porto Rico was this
morning somewhere of the north coast
Of Hayti. Secretary Long says that.
according to his advices, the fleet of
transports with the naval convoy got
away from OF Siboney at half-past 3
O'Clock yesterday afternoon. and II Is
travelling at about the usual naval
cruising speed I'm squadron of 10 knots
per hour. The question of conveys set
tied itself with the departure of the
expedition, but the naval officials are
still OF the opinion that the convoy
sent Is entirely disproportionate in
strength to the needs of the case. and
the demands laid upon the North At
aantic fleet to supply 1t have interfered
considerably. IL is stated at the depart
,ment, with the plans OF the naval
board.
This Is supposed to relate TO the de-
parture of the Watson expedition, but
on that point the naval officials decline
60 say anything further. simply point
ing TO the statement OF Secretary Long
as expressive OF their views.

REPORT RECEIVED

The war department is still in official
Ignorance OF the reported retirement OF
Garcia with his army from the Ameri-
can lines at Santiago and the resigna-
tion of the Cuban general. 1t is con-
eidered little singular that Gen
Shafter has not made report to the
department of the case by telegraph,
but he has so far shown little disposi-
tion to acquaint the department with
the state OF affairs at Santiago unless
called upon by direct inquiry by the
secretary OF war.
Thus II is not known at the depart
Sncnt that General Wood had been cre-
ated military commander OF Santiago.
although the fact would seem TO be one
OF sufficient Importance To justify its
