DEADLY CARBON MoN-vxIDE.
It's InAidious and Fatal Elects Graph
icnlIy Illustrated in Recent
Accidents.'

The recent death of one laundress
and narrow escape of another through
the breathing of escaping gas from n
laundry stove in which there was q
coke fire, both of them overcome while
awake and working and in large room
full of doors and windows. recalls the
graphic account given by DR.. A. E. Mil
Ter of the wholesale poisoning which
occurred by this same gas carb mon
oxide, at the Snaefell mining disaster.
\ rescuing party was overtaken by the
gas and one OF TIL cir number kept writ
ing a description of his sensations as
long as his pencil would trace the
words. lie wrote:
1--WE all sat without moving or try
ing to escape; the foot of the ladder
was close by. yet none of us made any
effort TO go to it and ascend even sin
gle rung. We ncne OF us tried to walk
"A dozen steps. which would have led us
to the other side OF the shaft partition,
where we all knew there was current
of better air"
The poisonous gases in these cases
were carbon mon and di oxide, chiefly
the former. both of which are present
in ordinary illuminating gas, says the
New York Times. The carbon mon
oxide. which is by far the more danger
Gus of the two. is present in the So
called water gas (Which has largely re-
paced the old fashioned coal gasi the
large cities) to the extent of go to 30
per cent. Its insidious and paralyzing
nature may be seen from the way in
which the rescuing party simply sat
down and waited for death, when few
steps would have saved them, and in
the fact that two able bodied, healthy
women were overcome while wide
awake and net six feet from several
doors and windows.
The dangerous steaithiness of this
g,S seems to be due to its gradual COM
biI,ation with the haemoglobin of the
blood (Which is the agent carrying oSy-
gen to the tissues and removing the
waste carbon dioside). into a very sta
bic compound, so stable in fact, that it
prevents the usual absorption of oXy-
gen in the lungs and thus really brings
about an asPhJ1iations of the tissues.
1t is the poisonous gas given OF from
burning charcoal. which is sometimes
used fer suicidal purposes.

WAYS OF TWO cHIEFTAINS.
Roberts and Kitchener, Hea d. of the
Drttish Army, Contrasted by
War Photograph.

A photographer who went to tho
front on behalf of the leading illustrate
ed journals and has just returned re-
lated an anecdote the other day which
very aptly illustrates the different char
acters and methods of those two great
English generals. Lord Roberts and
Lord Kitchener. says the London Free
Lance. He (the photographer) was
provided by his employer with spe-
cial tarpn uiin-covered cart and couple
of mules for the transport of his APP
paratus, and, needless to say. the name
and style of his paper was writ large all
ever is. During those fierce days at
Paarde deberg preceding the surrender of
Cronje there was a big run on the am
bulance wagons, of which, owing to
the rapid British advance, there were
none too many. Proceeding cautious
ly one day with his cart and mules to a
spot favorable TO snapshotting a few
pictures, the artist was suddenly con-
fronted by an orderly who signed him
to stop and spoke as follows: Lord
Roberts presents his compliments and
would be glad of the immediate loan of
your cart for couple of hours to con-
Of course there was only one possible
answer to such request. The pho;og-
ra9her hastily climbed down and
evinced in the rapidity with which he
undid his tackle how much real pleas
ure it gave him to comply. But that
was not all. At the expiration of the
two hours the orderly again gnlloped
up and said: Lord Roberts presents
his compliments and would be glad if
you would exits nd the loan of your cart
for a further two hours" Absolutely
flushing with pleasure, the artist could
do nothing hut blurt out his readtn ess
to lend his cart 10 so courteous COM
mander for Just a long as he should be
pleased to retain ii. Promptly at the
expiration of the time named, however,
the cart and mules were brought safely
back, Along with an expression of
thanks from the commander in chief
for the assistance rendered him.
But now mark the difference in the
case Of "the man of iron" The very
next day precisely similar emergency
arose. This time. however, Lord kitch-
ener himself rode up, accompanied by Il
troop of lancers. Acting evidently upon
orders just given. two of the troopers
sprang from their saddles, one Of them
seized and held the mules and the 9th
er proceeded with the utmost dispatch
and without SO much as a .cok at the
astonished artist to undo the fasten-
ings at the back of the cart and unload
the tackle. What is it, my lord ?'

from the box seat. Quick, man. get
down and lend hand. Sorry, but we
must commander you for am bulauce.' y
was the reply he received. And before
he could quite realize the situation the
two mules had been "ou;spanneG.' his
traps strewed about the ground and his
cart attached to two mounted troopers
and was laundering over the veidt. rs
