Atlanta Station.

The Constitution at last takes
the Marietta Journals position
that in order for an appropriation
by the state from the bonded debts
fund to build a passenger station
III Atlanta, to be constitutional,
it must be provided that the mon
ey so used shall be returned to
that fund to be used for the pur-
pose required by the constitution.
The Journal has insisted npon this
all along but the Constitution and
the Atlanta Journal seemed to
think that the attorney-general 5
opinion, which did not contem-
plate such a return, was correct.
Atlanta ought to have the station
if it can be secured in a legal way.

Judge Bleckley's Problem.

The problem that caused Judge
Bleckley to enter college is that
he wished proof of his theory that
the difference of the squares of
any two consecutive numbers ls
equal to their sum. The demon
stration is easy. Let X equal one
number, and X plus one, the other.
Their squares are X square, and X
square, plus two X, plus one, re-
spectively. The sum of the two
numbers is two X plus one, and
the difference of their squares is
two X plus one. Hence the diff
ference of the squares of the two
numbers is equal to their sum.

The New York Sun thus refers
tie the latest decision as to expert
testimony: "Whatever may be
the view taken by the court of last
resort, the decision of Justice
Fursman on Thursday in exclud-
ing the testimony of handwriting
experts in the trial of Sampel J.
Kennedy for the murder of Dolly
Reynolds will meet with the APP
prevail of laymen. The Judge held
that expert testimony on the ques-
ton of handwriting was admissa-
BILE when the disputed handwrit-
ing in question was the issue of
the, controversy. Expert evidence
could not be admitted when the
disputed handwriting was merely
evidence relating to the issue. In
the Kennedy case the prosecution
sought to establish that hand
writing found in the possession
of the murdered woman was Ken
nedy's, and to this end offered the
testimony of experts as to COM
parsons made by them between
the writing alleged to be Kenne-
dy's and that which was confess
eddy his. The judge held that the
jury might make this comparison
themselves, but that the declara-
tions of experts as to what they
found were inadmissable."

An unknown negro entered the
residence of Mrs. Buchanan, at 95
Spring stleet, in the heart of At
lanta, one morning last week, and
compelled her to cook his break
fast. Then, tying her feet and
hands, he quietly ate the break
fast, after which he set fire to the
house by placing a quantity of
paper in bed where he had fore
ed Mrs. Buchanan to lie. The
negro escaped without being de-
tected. Mrs. Buchanan scream

fire had gained much Roadway.

100 grammes, or between five and
six ounces, of blood. This ven-
tricle is connected with the pull
monary artery.
The left auricle is not so large
as the right, but it's walls are
thicker; discharging into it are
the two right and two left pulmon-
airy veins, the former coming
from the right and the latter from
the left lung.
The left ventricle is by far the
NEST powerful of the four sub
divisions of the heart, tho it's
capacity is the same, its walls are
three times as thick as those Of the
right ventricle. Connected with
this ventricle is the aorta, the
main artery of the body.
The course Of the blood we can
now follow, starting from any
point. Beginning with the right
auricle, the blood flows into this
cavity from the venae cavae, thence
into the right ventricle; from
there into the pulmonary artery to
the lungs; back through the pull
monary veins into the left auricle !;
from there into the left ventricle,
into and through the aorta, when
it is distributed to the arterial
system; through these vessels to
the veins and back once more to
the right auricle, the place of
beginning.
Each time that the ventricles
contract they send into the arteries
800 grammes (about II oz.) of
blood, each ventricle expelling 1870
grammes. The arteries are always
distended, there being always
enough blood present to distend
their walls a little. The pulse,
which can be felt at different
places, is caused by the contraction
of the artery which, lying near the
surface, can be felt. The blood
moves through the arteries in
waves. At the commencement of
the aorta the wave begins; in O.159
seconds it will be felt at the wrist,
and in O.193 seconds at the ankle.
1t is estimated that the length of
time required to make the entire
systemic circulation is about
twenty-four seconds. CLINIC.
