ADMINISTRATION OF CHLORO-
FORM TO HORSES

|
Mr.. Karslake Tasker, writing in the
Veterinary Record, relates his expert
ence in giving chloroform to horses. He
employs Krohnes apparatus, which Is
based on the Junker method Of forcing
air through chloroform. The teaching
of DIR. John Snow that chloroform acts
directly In proportion to the strength of
| the vapor inhaled at each inspiration,
affecting the centers of life In varying
| order according as the vapor is present
ed In weak or concentrated state, is
capable of being carried out by this
plan. For while Snow worked with
known quantities of chloroform in
known cubic space and so was able to
give definite percentage of the anaes-
thetic, by the Junker method a known
quantity Of chloroform is evaporated at
each compression Of the bellows, and so
definite amount of the chloroform is
presented to the patient at each inspi-
ration. This method has been adapted
by Mr. Krohne to his very ingenious ap-
paratus for chloroforming horses. Mr..
Tasker records that he was enabled to
obtain satisfactory anaesthesia in horses
by using 1898 minims per minute in one
case, 1873 minims in another, and ISL
minims in another. This gives an aver
age Of about half minim per respira-
ton. The piston, which takes the place
Of the bellows in the apparatus of Jun
ker, enables the administrator to con-
troll the percentage Of vapor given. To
insure success 1t is urged that the follow
ing rules should be attended to- ~
that the vapor be given during the
whole of the period of inspiration; ~
only SO much chloroform to be given at
each inspiration as can be completely
absorbed; CD to commence with only
one-twentieth of minin, slowly and
carefully to increase to one-tenth, one
fifth, etc, and never to go above half
minim doses. There is no doubt that
the giving of chloroform by method of
known and accurately graduated doses
is one which gives the administrator
greater control than the older and more
haphazard plans. 1t must be open to
question, however, at present whether
the optimistic views of the supporters of
this method that it removes all the dan
gers of the anaesthetic can be accepted
without some reservation. We fear that
much unnecessary suffering to animals
has in the past been allowed through
the dread of mourning the supposed risk
Of giving chloroform to valuable horses,
dogs etc. AS has been pointed out by
Mr. Holiday and others, the lower ami
mails can be most successfully given
chloroform If they are properly dealt
with, If a rational method is adopted,
and If the management Of the anaes-
thetic is committed to trained person,
and not entrusted to stable helper or
rustic, who is as incapable of giving
chloroform to horse as to human be-
ine.-Lancet.

leads the Cincinnati Times-Star to re-
mark: Progressive euchre Is in itself
as harmless as dominoes, or tiddle-de-
Winks and vastly more amusing. The
harm to be found in euchre can be dis
covered in other secular amusements,
viz, the step into the path that may
lead to something worse. That some
thing of which progressive euchre may
be the start is gambling. bond sure
ty company in recent statement pub
lished gives 1000 defalcations Of 100000

able to gambling. Unfortunately the
statistics We're not prepared for an an
ti-progressive euchre purpose, and just
how many of the 1000 young men who
violated trusts received their gambling
education in the euchre kindergarten Is
not known.
We do not call attention to these
facts in the belief that they will make
any impression on the progressive
euchre fiends of New Haven. Probably
nothing will do that. But perhaps some
who have not fallen into the snare may
be moved to keep out.

THE QUEER FILIPINOS.

Those Filipinos are strange beings.
First, they wouldn't believe that we
were their friends and took to fighting
us. Then they wouldn't fall into the
traps set for them, and instead of wait

would run away when 1t got too hot
Malolos. What can be done with such
inconsiderate chaps, and what will they
do next? The latest from Manila Is
that the United States troops are rest
ing at Malolos, and that the hostiities
elsewhere are not very lively. Perhaps
the backbone of the "insurrection" is
broken. There are some signs that it
is, but the Spaniards, who think they
know something about the insurgents,
say that it is not. They say that the
insurgents will continue to fight little
and run away. thus fixing things so
that they can live to fight some other
day. OF course the Spaniards having
sold us the insurrection want us to get
our moneys worth, but they probably
don't make sufficient allowance for the
difference between Spanish fighting and
United States fighting. 1t will not be
if the Filipinos learn soon
the futility of fighting their best friends
and come down as gracefully as posi-
be brought down.

PROGRESSTTE EUCHRE,

Progressive euchre has either not
ravaged New Haven this winter as it
did last winter, or else it's ravages have
not been as fully reported. But it has
doubtless done much of it's fell work.
1t has made trouble enough in Cincin-
natl. A board of deacons in that city
decided that every person should be ex-
PEELED from church membership who
persisted in playing progressive euchre.
To make their action consistent they
also resolved that all others who violat
ed the covenant should be dismissed.
The roster of the church membership
was examined, and those who attended
the theatre. danced, INDUCED in intoxi-
eating beverages and were guilty of
other mild or serious offences were
marked for dismissal, together with the
card players. A recapitulation showed
that an alarmingly large per cent. of
the congregation would be dismissed,
while majority of the remaining small
per cent. were suspected. The reform
was not carried out, as the deacons de-
cided that the church was an ornament
to the neighborhood and the congrega-
ton necessity to society.

Methodist ministers in Washington,
who are making an attempt to end the
Sunday-night entertainments in the va
riety theatres of that city, given under
the guise of sacred concerts" have
made the disagreeable discovery that
there is no law of the District which fits
the case. Commissioner Ross tells them
that the only law which could be
brought to bear is an enactment of the
Maryland assembly of 1928, providing a
penalty for unlawful pastimes or rec
reations" on ''the Lords day." and none
of the crusaders cared to attempt an
enforcement of this colonial law. Even
licenses cannot be refused to the pro-
prietors of places conducting Sunday
night shows when their present licenses
expire, a court ruling on this phase of
the matter being that the granting of
licenses is peremptory under the inter-
nal-revenue act when the parties apply
ing for license fulfill the requirements
of the act.
