Strain on Officers and Men.

Lieut.. Moses recounting the incidents at
Guantanamo said the strain on officers and
men was terrific, not because of the dan
ger of their position, but because of the
loss of sleep and the constant activity dur
ing the first part of their stay there.

fore they took the trail of the man who
had thus far so successfully baffled their
powers
1.-THE doctor stood still and waited
until one of the brutes rushed within
an arms length. when he struck him
in the face with the cloth saturated
with ammonia. This reception was a
most novel and unique one for the wolf,
who ran off bowling with pain. Two
more of the band were slapped across
the mouths with the saturated baize,
and they also left. After this experience
the wolves followed the doctor till day
light next morning, when they gave up
the chase. which they had continued for
48 hours and which unquestionably
would have resulted in most horrible
death if it had not been for the contents
of the ammonia bottle.
''Dr. Thornton succeeded in finding a
shanty occupied by the men construct
ing the Catawissa railroad, where he
was carefully cared for, and in the
course of four or five days was taken to
his home, where he was i'll for fully q
month. '-Philadelphia Record.

THE STEAMERS CHIMNEY.
Some Details of Interest Regarding Its
Construction and Use.

some DttallS Oh ltb
Construction and Use.
The stroller along the wharfs who
should see rising from the smokestack
of big steamer a small and at the start
perfectly defined column of smoke which
seemed to come from small smoke
pipe within the big one might wonder
il the great smokestack was filled with
smaller stacks, one for each boiler. AS
a matter of fact it is not so filled, but
there is within it smaller smoke pipe
called the donkey stack. which is the
chimney for the boiler of the donkey en-
CINE, which is used when the vessel is
in port in hosting cargo in and out. 1t
is from this pipe that the small column
of smoke is seen to issue.
The donkey stack is placed sometimes
against the forward inner side of the big
stack, sometimes against the after inner
side. 1t may be complete pipe, or 1t
may be formed of iron in the shape of
half a pipe, with fanges riveted to the
main pipe.
If single one of the large boilers
were used, as it might be when the ship
is in port, it might be connected with
the donkey stack, but in their regular
and common arrangement and use the
uptakes of all these boilers run into the
great chimney, whose whole interior is
open, except for the braces running
across it to strengthen and support it.
The chimneys of all large steamships,
however, and of many other steam ves-
sells as we'll are built double, with an
inner and an outer shell, with a space
between varying according to the size
of the vessel. 1t may be from five to ten
inches. The primary purpose Of this
chamber around the smokestack is to
afford ventilation for the engine room
and the stokehole. In at least one mod
ern passenger ship ventilating pipes
from the passenger quarters have beer
carried to these chambers. Incidentally
the space between the shells helps t.
keep the stack slightly, for thus con
structed the chimney is cooler on the
outside than it would otherwise be, anG
SO it holds paint the better.-New Yorl

SPRAlNS.
why They Are So Severe and How The,
Should BE Treated.

why They Are So Severe and How They
Should BE Treated.
It is commonly said that sprained
Joint is worse than broken bone, and
this is often true, for in severe sprain
the injury is really greater than in a
simple fracture. The ankle is perhaps
the most frequently sprained of all the
Joints, though the knee, elbow and
wrist are also very liable to be injured,
In falls especially.
A sprain of joint varies greatly in
severity. 1t may consist of simple
wrench, without the tearing of any of
The ligaments, or it may be a more ex-
tensive injury, stopping just short Of a
1islocation.
In moderately severe case one or
more of the ligaments of the joint will
be torn slightly, or possibly completely
across. The membrane beneath the lig-
aments, which retains the lubricating
fluid of the joint, will be ruptured, per-
hitting the escape Of more or less of
this fluid into the parts about, and CIV
ing rise sometimes to a considerable
swelling. This swelling may be increas-
ed also by an effusion Of fluid into the
Joint, especially if Inflammation sets in,
and finally there is usually slight or
even sometimes quite pronounced es-
cape of blood into the tissues, and this,
gradually working to the surface, ap-
pears as black and blue stain.
In more severe cases the tendons pass
ing over the joint and attaching the
muscles which move it to the bones may
suffer considerable damage, or one OF
them may be broken or torn from its at
tachment. bringing with it a silver OF
bone. Where so much harm has been
done to all the parts-bones, ligaments,
tendons and muscles-it is easy to un-
derstand that much pain will result and
that the cure will be tedious.
In the treatment of sprain the first
thing to be aimed at is to relieve pain
and prevent inflammation, then to favor
healing of the torn structures, and after
that to restore the use of the limb.
The first of these objects is accom-
| plished by absolute rest of the injured
part, the limb being raised, and by lead
and opium wash, spirit lotion, or such
other local applications as the physician
may prescribe. Swelling is prevented In
a measure and pain is sometimes re-
lieved by firm bandaging with a fan
mel bandage.
When the swelling, heat and pair
are gone. the limb should not be uset
too soon, but should be brought gradu
ally back to health by GOLD douching
dry rubbing in direction toward th'
body and passive motion, 1t Is some
times necessary in very severe cases Il
treat the sprain by means Of splints, ex
aotly as IL IL were q fracture or disloca
