He SHEDS HIS SKIN.


| Once a Year for Forty-Three Years, He

a fairly well educated miner--is at the
present time engaged in the curious
pastme of SHINING himself The
method that he adopts is to first skin
his hands and face and then strip it in
an immense sheet from his body.
The process Of skinning his hands
and face was completed yesterday and
it came from the face like mask The
skin from the hands resembles a pair
of gloves and was exhibited on the
streets yesterday The toughness is
something remarkable and two men
tried with might and main to tear it.
They were not successful, although the
skin is not thicker than the leather of
a mans street glove Price talks freely
about the matter, although he is rather
tender about any publication in the
newspapers. Many physicians have ex-
amined him during the period of the

matter yesterday Mr.. Price said:
My mother told me that she first
noticed the trouble when / was six
months old, and regularly every year
since then have shed my skin. 1t is
a phenomenon that no physician has
yet satisfactorily explained although
hundreds have made examinations and
investigati tons The fact is, that I shed
my skin, and that is all there is to it,

around my wrists, and with the aid OF

go down to the marshes of some river.
Their only bait is human hide, each one
exposing portion of his body which
is easiest to see and reach with his
right hand. When a mosquito gets his
bill well settled into this tempting bait,
test tube is clapped over it. and the
surprised insect springs to the top of it's
crystal cage. The sportsman quickly
places bit of raw cotton in the open
end Of the tube, which holds the mos
quito in its prison. Then the hunter is
ready for another insect victim Hun

The other live part of the experiment.
ers' outfit Is number of crows, which
in this region have been found the most
suitable birds for experimental purposes.
The mosquitoes will survive for sew
eral days in their glass cages, but the
doctors do not tarry long before begin
ming their experiments. In the first
place the mosquitoes must be inOcu'ated
with the malarial germs. These are sup
piled from the laboratory stock, for the
mosquitoes are not generally furnished
with the germs when caught, BY feed
ing the germs are introduced into each
mosquitoes stomach. Then commences
the delicate part of the experiment.
Every two hours, or thereabouts,
mosquito must be killed and its body
prepared for microscopic examination.
This search under the magnfying len
SEES discloses that the malarlal germs
are broken up in the mosquitoes stom-
ach. Each part becomes impregnated
in little sac or tumor In the stomach
wall. Within this sac minute bodies
lenticular or dlamond-shape, are form
ed, and finally the sac bursts without
the stomach, thus allowing the little
bodies, which have the power of move
ment, to get into the circulation of the
mosquito. Once In this condition they
quickly find their way to the salvary
glands of the mosquito, where they con-
gregate. BY this time the mosquito Is
ready for business and those of the
insects which have not already given
up their lives to the inquisitive eye of
science may be used to inoculate the
malarial germ into birds or animals.
During this intermediate process in
the body of the mosquito, the DOCTORS
have learned that the germ Is one of
three varieties, producing one of three
distinct types of the disease. One form

ever seen--this is what the visitor sea
at the big log jam above the Bonner
mills this month
1t Is a sight that Is well worth the
trip from here to witness. The logs are
piled in the most fantastic shapes, and
aside from the business point of view,
which is always interesting, the pic
ture Is one that is full of interest, even
to those who have seen similar sights
before. The splendid natural facilities
afforded by the Big Blackfoot River at
Bonner for the storage of logs was new

must be demolished all universities,
colleges and schools that spring from

with them must vanish the hospitals
and asylums for the sick in body or
mind, for nearly every one Of these
sprang from and Is controlled by the
heart Of Christian compassion. Then

of the Bible, sparing only what is God
less. Go through all picture galleries,

To prove that mosquitoes convey ma
laria Is the delicate and painstaking
task which a number of investigators
have set themselves in the Johns Hop
kins' Hospital laboratories. The scien-
tific Investigator avoids experimental
ton upon human beings for various rea-
sons. One of these reasons, as express
sed by doctor, is that such expert
ments are avoided, just as the practice
of cooking with dynamite, for fear of
imperfect control of the heat and ener-
gy. However, it has been found that
birds Chill without emotion and are
subject to type of malarial fever close
ly resembling that in human beings,
except that the germ is slightly differ
ent. Consequently birds are used as the
objects of the mosquitoes incubation
with germs of Shakes"
A Frenchman in Algiers discovered
the germ of malaria in the sos To this
chill-producing microscopic object was
given the name of jasmodium malariae
Subsequent study has been along the
lines of the life history and character
fstics Of the germ. Manson and Ross,
English investigators in India, and
Grassi, an Italian, advancved the theo-
ry of incubation of the disease by in
sects, usually mosquitoes, as being the
most abundant and widely spread pest
1t is the work of these experimenters
which is being followed up and confirm
ed in Baltimore by Drs. John B. Mac
Callum and Eugene L. Ope, at the
Johns Hopkins Hospital.
First catch your mosquito is the ,
precept of these Investigators. This is
accomplished by the doctors themselves.

remains then, it is said, for the germ

ssTHE GREAT RUBY"
Will be Seen for Only one More Week at
Mcvicker's Theatre, Chicago.

Only one more week remains of the
long and successful engagement of
Manager Jacob Lifts production of
'The Great Ruby" at McVicker's
Theatre, Chicago. Saturday night,
Dec. 2, will see the farewell of the
splendid company which has been
playing this fine Engl7n me1odrama.
It seems probable that the capacity of
McVicker's will be tested at every per-
Torrance from now until '"The Great
Ruby" is withdrawn. The advance
sale for the last week is already very
large, particular demand being made
for the special holiday performances
on Thanksgiving day at the matinee
and night performances. The phe-
nomena1 success that has attended
this venture of Mr.. Lifts is well de-
served, as he has been liberal in pro-
viding scenery, furnishings and COM
pany to produce the play properly.
The thrilling balloon scene continues
to hold attention and to call out DEM
onstrations of delight from the audi
ences assembled to witness the per-
formances of the play. Miss Urquhart,
Mrs. Boucicau1t, Miss Smyth, Miss
Ppghs1ey, Mr.. Whitt1esey, Mr.. Massen,
Mr.. Losee, Mr.. Able, Mr.. Haze1tine,
Mr.. de Si1ke and others of the COM
pany have endeared themselves to the
Chicago public by their clever imper-
sonations.
Manager Lift announces another
big production for his Chicago theatre
in Stanis1aus STANCES dramatization
of "Ouo Vadis,'' the masterpiece of
the Polish romancer, Henryk Sien-
kiewicz. The play, which is to be in
six acts and eight scenes, will receive
it's first performance on any stage at
McVicker's theatre beginning Dec. II.
The company includes Joseph Haworth,
Arthur Forrest, Edwin Varrey, Horace
Lewis, E. Lyons, Elmer Grandin, Ro
se11e Knott, Minnie Seligman and
Maud and Margaret Fea1ey. Hand
some scenery and accessories will be
provided.

A DIsGRACEFUL RIOT.
Well Known Young Men of the City En-
gage in a Fight on Main Street.

If reports about the street this morn
ing are true there are several well
known and highly respected young
men of the city who should have spent
the early hours of the morning in Jail.
Early risers report that nothing less
than a riot occurred at the Grant
House corner at an early hour this
morning The people who participant
ed in the fight had been in a saloon
and gambling room during the night
and had started home about 2 o'clock.
When they reached the corner in ques-
ton they were encountered by NUM-
Der of young men from the North side
who had blood in their eyes. One of
the latter at once started trouble by
declaring that they could whip any
ching in the city. This the South sid
ers disputed and free for all fight re-
suited. The South siders notwith-
standing their patent leather shoes
and dress clothes won an easy victory
and one of the North side fellows was
taken home in pieces. He is said to be
badly injured. No report of the affair
was made to the police, but none of
the young men who were connected
with the affair have been seen on the
streets this morning and it is said that
it will be some time before they will be
in position to appear before the
world.
