dressing-rooms of :hc surgical divisions.
Patients are wheeled from the wards &c
the dressing-rooms. Old baniages and
dressings are removed by the nurses. New

The superintendent. Doctor H. L. Nietert,
and assistant superintendent. Louis Rassi-

and Norveli. make their rounds. examining
the more serious cases and giving orders for
their treatment. The work of dressing is
done by the junior doctors.
This busy time continues from two TO
three hours, and 1t is this work chiefly that
makes the hospital experience valuable TO
a young physician. He sees many kinds of
disease. He applies the remedies and can
watch results.
1t is an experience that cannot be dupIi-

a table could be the cause of fire.
Nevertheless such is the case. In my
laboratory the other day detected the
odor of burning wood and, seeking the
cause, noticed tiny wreath of smoke
rising from the counter. Setting aside
a flask of water that stood close by
sponged over the burning spot with
damp cloth. Shortly after | again de-
tected the odor of burning wood, when,
to my surprise, l discovered another
burning spot on the table close to the
water flask. The flask was standing
In the sunlight, thereby concentrating

while witnessing, especially as the
prices have been lowered.
"Sids Tracked i" like young Lochin-
var, has come out of the west, where
it has been popular attraction for
some time. 1t is breezy and always on
the move, like the country from which
it sprung. After all, the beat test of
the merits of decent play is in the
verdict Of those for whose amusement
it is intended, and judged by that
standard, "Side Tracked" will prove
great SUCCESS in this city. In the
course OF the performance a number
of diverting specialties are given.
Side Tracked" is powerful yet
lsughsble comedy drama, in fact, has
comedy enough to stock three or four
melodrsmss. 1t will be produced with
new and ingenious mechanical effects
and striking costumes,

Paris Disappointed That More of

EXPEDITION.

Disguise it as you may, republican
France has been bitterly disappointed
at the absence of the principal crowned
heads of Europe from the eNposition
but most of all al that of the Russian
sovereign. France considered not
unJustly-that so much was due to her
from the son of Il father whose mem
ory is perpetuated in Paris by one of
the most striking and beautiful monu-
ments ever devised by an art-loving ma
tlcn. France will not admit that the
absence of crowned visitors of the first
rank and their heirs was due to her
own folly. She who is always preach
ing the solidarity of republicans all
over the world will not admit that
there may be such a solidarity among
monarchs. And. even if she did ad init
1t, she would fail to see the reason why
Nicholas II. should not have made an
exception in her favor. She thinks,

There was no proof that Oscar Of
Sweden and Norway. Leopold Of Bel
GUM. and George Of Greece are not
as solicious of the prestige of their

to acknowledge the obligation in that

scent; Leopold's father indirectly

Ottawa. uOntD November 22.--All
the facts in the possession of the In
terror Department regarding the alleged
conspiracy to- capture the Government
of the Yukon were made public today
officials here do not take serious view
of the situation.
ON september 2ist Controller Fred
White of the Mounted Police was adj
visod by Superintendent Primrose of
Dawson of a report from Seattle that
some scheme was being Concocted to
seize Canadian territory I'm the Yukon.
on the 25th White again received "a
message from Superintendent Primrose
saying that he was unable to confirm
the report although circumstance
tended to confirm his suspicious.
1t appears that a man named II.
Greght had told at Dawson that he
knew of conspiracy against the GOV
eminent, that Greght had been shad-
owed by the police, and it was discov-
cred that he told several stories about
himself He had been in Dawson about
q month. His conversation was to
the effect that secret organization in
tended to take possession Of the Yukon
territory, their plan being to run White
Horse pass, taking the smaller detach-
ments along the river, 1t being an easy
matter to capture the barracks at Daw-
son. The organization had representa-
tives both at Seattle and Skagway, and
they expected to be assisted by men
from Circle city and Eagle city. This
was the plan outlined by Greght who,
it was said by member of the Mount
ed Police, had been in the grocery bust
ness in Butte, Mont. Nothing more
was heard of the matter until November
4th, when Controller Fred White receiv-
ed the following telegram from Superin-
tendent Wood of Dawson:
Snyder reports discovered where
abouts in Skagway papers relating to
conspiracy to seize territory. United
States refuse to secure unless SNYDER
makes affidavit as to conspirators This
of course, he cannot do. Am satisfied
such conspiracy exists"
The police We're also trying to locate
a man named Short, who had been mem
toned as having knowledge of a con-
spiracy
VICTORIA, Oh. c., November %
James Seeley of the secret service of
the Yukon territory, who is here, says
the conspiracy formed in Dawson was
discovered by the police there in Sep
TENDER. 1t was an organization known
as the order of the Midnight Sun, 80
founded at Dawson by some American
remains, and branch was formed at
Skagway, but the order did not extend
south.
The plans were for the conspirators
in Dawson to rise when the word was
given, after the Yukon he'd become un-
fit for travel, seize the barracks of the
Northwest Mounted Police, while their
SkagWay cOnfTeres, after cutting the
wires were to surprise the mounted
police patrols along the river.
There are about $50 mounted police
scattered through the district, and as
there are few in Dawson the scheme
was thought to be feasible. The papers
of the association We're seized at Skag-
way.
