His Heart k on the Right Side.

Physicians ill hospital at Omaha discovered that the heart of John NJ. Murphy, ore of the inmates, lies on the right instead of the left side of his body Operations were at once begun to transfer 1t to it's proper place. Mar- phy is accustomed to handling heavy burdens and two years ago he observed some startling change going on around his heart. The organ seemed to be slowly crowded toward his right side. In the course of a year he found his heart eating nearly in 1ne center of his body and then it passed distinctly over to the right side The doctors performed an operation, They found his heart had been crowded out of place as the result of the formation of pus in the natural heart cavity. This was drawn off, section of the ribs taken out and the delicate organ pressed to- wards the left It could not be moved much, but the surgeons think it will gradually return to it's accustomed place It is believed to be the only case of its kind in medical history.

OIL USED AS FUEL ON SHIPS.

 perimenting with It.

Russian, Italian and German Nayies Ex-
 perimenting with It.
 The enormous annual draw on our coal supply is already somewhat les sened by the use of liquid fuel, al- though the actual effect is, of course, inappreciable. Sir Marcus Samuel, in a recent paper before the Society of Arts, gave an interesting account of the. present position of liquid fuel in our own and foreign countries. In England oil as fuel is in use on the Great Eastern railway, and we believe the results have proved satisfactory. It has also been found more or less ill use in the Russian, German and Italian nayies and one or two foreign railways. We are told that when the old fields of Dutch Borneo were first opened up the oil was not allowed to be carried in bulk through the Suez canal, and there was not a single port at which obstacles were not placed in the way of it's introduction Now ves- esls carrying 6,500 tons, and capable of discharging over 500 tons of oil per hour, pass through the canal regularly. The impediments placed in the way of it's discharge have been done away with as experience has shown that there is no real danger. Several ad- vantages are claimed for the use of this body as fuel to replace coal, tEe chief being the convenience of storage, the reduction of labor in storing and rapidity of discharge. The alternate contraction and expansion of the fire bars and steam tubes, unavoidable when coal is used as the fuel, is said to be altogether stopped, but against this has to be placed a risk of over heating Chronicle

DEATH AT THE FORT.
Oscar Peterson, One of the Santiago
Heroes, Passes Away.

The first death fr several months 90
Cured at Fort Smelling Thursday night
Oscar Petersen, of Company A, one of
the Santiago boys passed away after a
lingering illness. Peterson came back
with the regiment from Cuba and has
been in the hospital since. He was SUI
fering with malarial fever, but after re-
covering from the fever he was taken
with pneumonia and his system was too
weak to withstand the disease.
Peterson was twenty-five years Of age
and was born at Red Wing, MINI. His
father, John Peterson, of 1922 Fourth
street, has requested the shipment of tho
remains to Red Wing.
No direct mail advices have been ro-
ceived at the fort since the regiment ar
rived In Manila. Capt. Gerlach yester-
day received a letter from Capt. L. w.
Cooke, dated on board the transport ship,
saying that the women folks had stood
the trip we'll and the command was i'll
good health. Capt. Gerlach thinks the
reason no letters have been received since
the arrival of the regiment at Manila IS
that 1t was Immediately ordered to take
the field, and the officers had no time to
write letters
Capt. Cook stated in his letter that the
regiment was stripped ready for action.
as they expected to be ordered to the In.
terror Immediately upon landing.

Comment of Manila Papers About
the Regiments Provost Work

Comment of Manila Papers About
the Regiments Provost Work.
The American, a Manila paper, Of
March q, contains the following:
Sunday at noon the Thirteenth Min
nesota volunteer regiment was relieved
from fHa the, responsible duty of guarding
did continuous police duty since the
memorable fall of the city Aug. Is, 1885,
many of the men and officers will be
missed from their old beats. That they de-
serve the parise and thanks of the whole
business community is a well known
fact, and, though they, passed through
other regiment has been worked as hard
Yet to their credit stand hundreds of
convictions and arrests of many of the
sworn allegiance to Aguinaldo.
That they did their duty fearlessly
cannot be denied by any, and that they
will still render good account Of them
selves under the command of Brig Gen.
Hall in the line Of battle is foregone
conclusion.
''They have been relieved by the Tween
tieth infantry, which recently arrived,
who, together with a battalion of the
seventeenth, form the provost marshals
guard"
Freedom, another newspaper Of the
same date, says:
well, Minnesota men. now that Won
have got your wish, we congratulate
you, and sincerely hope you will not
nave cause to regret it. You have played
a most important part in this campaign;
you have played 1t nobly and well, and
wherever you go or whatever you may
do, your work as the peace preservers
relief, rejecting untarnishable credit on
you and your state. 1t is easy to un-
derstand why brave men chafe and fret
when kept in the rear while the action
Is in front, and why the men of the
Thirteenth Minnesota regiment have
longed for the firing line, even though, as
we nave maintained from the onset, their
position has always been one of the
gravest Importance; for they have quiet
ed things in Manila: they have got mat
ters well under control, while the cannon
and Springfelds are singing men to sleep
every day. No wonder they have want
ed to go out there in the trenches and
land with their entire force on the rebels
We wish them all the luck in the world

STATE BOUGHT FEW.
Little Bidding In at This Years De-
Hnquent Tax Sale.

The sale of property on which the taxes
for 1897 are delinquent will be completed
today. Deputy County Auditor Bourne
stated last evening that up to date about
$4,000 had been realized from the sale,
and that all the descriptions where the
taxes amounted to more than SO had been
bid In by purchasers. Property on which
the taxes were below this figure went to
the state. All the delinquent property in
the city has been disposed of. and this
morning the county auditor will dispose
of the descriptions in the county.
There has been a splendid demand for
certificates, and not more than half the
number of pieces were bid in by the
state this year as compared with the
sale of year ago.
