CAN IL BE 0URED9
Successful Treatment of Lockjaw
in New York Hospital.
Disease Ia Arrested by Heroic Treat
ment--PatIen1s skull TrephIned
and Serum Injected Into
the Drain.

The many recent deaths from te-
tanus, lockjaw, In the opinion of many
physicians has confirmed the belief
that it is an incurable malady. The
members of the medical staff at Roose-
welt hospital, New York city, however,
are beginning to think differently.
Since July ~ five boys, all suffering
from tetanus, due to wounds received
while celebrating the Fourth, have
been admitted to the hospital and treat
ed under the direction of DR.. Robert
Able, of the visiting staff. Two of the
boys died and three are living. In two
of the cases of those living the jaws
were locked when the boys were adj
mitted to the hospital. In the third
case the disease had only progressed
to limited degree.
The two cases in Roosevelt are the
first ever successfully treated. The
boys are not yet out of danger, but the
progress of the disease has been ar
rested, and where the jaws were locked
at first they have slightly relaxed and
the indications of recovery are regard
ed as fairly favorable.
One of these cases was admitted TO
the hospital on the 18th. The boy had
a wound in the palm of the left hand,
made by blank cartridge. His jaws
were locked. DIR. Able decided to try
powerful treatment. Both sides of the
boys skull were trephined and three
cubic centimeters of the serum injected
into the brain. The next morning the
injection into the brain was repeated,
but only half of the quantity of serum
used. Injections were also made into
the thick tissues, the muscles of the
arms, legs and back.
This boy is still alive. His jaws are
still locked, but not so rigidly as at
first. One of his front teeth is gone,
and the doctors have fed him liquids
through the aperture.

PARAGUAY SUGAR PROSPECTS.
Cane Is Being Cultivated to Larger
Extent Than Ever Before and Is
Proving Profitable.

Wce-Consul Harrison of Asuncion,
Paraguay, writes ''Sugar cane is be-
ing cultivated in Paraguay to a larger
extent than ever before and is proving
profitable. Each cane is about two
inches in diameter and six to eight feet
high. One ton of sugar cane will give
IS to 40 gallons of juice, and each gallon
of juice one and one-eighth pounds of
sugar. The cane grown here is of
good class and makes fine sugar and
rum. There is only one sugar mill in
the entire country, and this cannot sup
ply the demand. The importation of
sugar is large, most of it coming from
France. The sugar made in the country
is selling at high price, and with
American mills and skilled labor the
quality could be improved to great ad-
vantage. Common labor is cheap, but
skilled workmen are not procurable in
the country"

REMENYps VIOLIN SOLD.
Famous Virtuoso.s Dying Wish Car
rIed Out by widow-Bought
by Frnnz EaItenborn.

When Edouard Remenyi, the eccen-
trio and far-famed yiolinist, dropped
dead he was playing on his beloved
Stradivarius violin. lie loved that vio-
lin better than anS&hing else in the
world. Remenyi would never allow any
member of his family TO go near the
precious instrument, much less to
touch it, and he often told his wife that
in the event of his death he wished the
violin to be sold, not to collector, who
would hang it in case and boast of
its cost, but TO a yiolinist, who would
play upon it and cherish it for its mu-
steal loveliness. The old mans desire
has been accomplished. Negotiations
have been completed by which Mrs.
lsemenyi, the virtuosos widow, sold the
splendid Stradivarius to Franz Kalten-
born, conductor of the summer concerts
at the st. Nicholas garden, New York
city. The price paid for the instrument
was $4,000.

ANOTHER BAY DISCOVERED.
A beautiful sheet Of water on North
Const of Cubn Sheltered behind
sInuous ana Narrow Channel.

A hitherto unknown bay has been
discovered in Cubn as n result of the
survey being made by naval officer.
Rear Admiral Bradford has received
report from Commander Dyer of the
discovery of bay on the north coast
of Cubn, a few miles from Gibara Com
mander Dyer says; "This is 4 most ex-
traordinary bay. The entrance is
narrow and crooked gorge, in which
there are ten fathoms of water along
side the walls of the channel. At flood
and ebb the current runs with rapid
lty of five or six knots, making it prac-
tically impossible to keep n vessel clear
of the rocks If the attempt should be
made to enter against the current.
With a favorable current, however, or
in slack water, vessel of almost any
size could enter without difficulty.
Once inside there is the finest sheet of
water ever saw. 1t is larger and deep
er, am sure, than Guantanamo. The
effect is surprising after passing
through the sinuous channel, which
leads up to it,"

CULLECT TIE MAILS.
The Post Omce Department of New
York City TO Make an Expert
ment with Automobile.

In the near future the post Office de-
partmentw make an experiment with
automobiles in the collection of mail in
New York city. In order TO test the adj
vantage of collecting the mail in this
manner several manufacturers of these
vehicles have offered to place number
at the disposal of the free delivery de-
partment. City Postmaster Merritt will
take the matter up with the post Office
department next week, when it will be
decided just what will be done. a re-
port of a successful experiment recent
ly made in Buffalo has been received by
the department. A friend of the Buff
falo postmaster owned an automobile,
and being enthusiastic about the ma
chine permitted the post Office to use it
in the collection of the mail 1t was
demonstrated that twice as much mail
could be collected in this manner as in
the regular way. If the experiments
here show the same results it is likely
the postmaster general will ask con-
gress for an appropriation for the pur-
chase of number of automobiles.
