rrigonometry In < Ray work.

"Few people know" said DR.. ]. G..
Egelston while performing an opera
ton at the City hospital, ''that 1t takes
trigonometry to locate bullet in the
body. But in every x ray operation
in which the bullet or foreign SUBJ
stance is deeply imbedded mathemat-
ical computation is necessary to show
just how deep the bullet is. The X
rays make the flesh transparent, leav-
ing only the bones and foreign sub
stance visible, so that you see just
where the bullet is, and yet you don't
know where it is. You know it's lati-
tude and longitude, so to speak, but
those measurements are surface meas
urements, and you don't known how
deep the object is beneath the surface.
The point on the surface of the body
beneath which the bullet is can be
readily located, but how far beneath
that point is the bullet?
"This is the question that trigonome-
try has to answer, and by knowing the
answer a great deal Of unnecessary
cutting may be saved, and what might
otherwise be a difficult and dangerous
operation may be rendered compare
lively safe and easy. If the bullet en-
tiers one side of the body, for instance,
and lodges within an inch or two Of
the skin on the other side, the other
side of the body would be the one from
which to operate."-Kansas City Jour-

ONLY ELEVEN BILLIONS.

An increase of more than 100 per
cent In the money of the world In less
than a generation is an exhibit Of the
annual report of the director of the
mint. Nearly the whole of this in
crease is in metallic money, and much
the larger portion is In gold. The to-
tai stock reported in 1873 was about
$4,60O,000,000 More than half Of this
was in paper money not fully covered
by the metallic reserve. The situation
at the beginning Of 1900 showed a to-
tai monetary stock of about $11, 6oO.-
100000, of which only a little more
than one-fourth was in uncovered pa
per money.
Director Roberts finds that, while
the money supply of the woFld has in
creased about $7,OO0,OOO,OOO, the in
crease in gold money since 1873 has
been about $3,600,0OO,OOO, in silver
about 81, 100000 and In uncovered
paper money only about $3.50, 100000.
A large proportion of the increase in
gold has taken place within the short
space of seven years, while the quanti-
ty Of silver money, which was at its
maximum of about $4,250 100000 at
the beginning of 1896, has since been
somewhat reduced by the retirement
Of silver by Germany and its retire
ment in other countries. The condi-
tons of 1893 showed total monetary
supply of about $4,000, 100000, which
has since been increased by about ST.
1O0,O0O,00O. About $94O, 100000 of this
Increase has been in gold money.-Phil-

New York, July 9-Lieutenant
Edward H. Martin, who was re-
Gently dismissed from the Fifth Ar.
tillery, U. S A., for irregularities
In his canteen accounts, pleaded
guilty before Recorder Goff to-day
to passing worthless checks on the
Gorham Manufacturing Company

Martins counsel. who was also
an old friend, made a plea for mercy
on the ground that Martin was con.
stantly under the influence of NOR
phine and was not, therefore. re-
sponsible for his acts.
But the Recorder turned a deaf
ear to the plea. "Your client is a
man Of education, and more than
ordinary intelligence" the Court
said, "He knew what he was do
ing; it 10 no use playing the baby
act.
Martin was graduated from West
Point in 1898, and was assigned to

duty in Cuba throughout the Span

GLASS WORKERS IN SESSION.
Flint Men and Bottle Blowers to Fix
Wage Scales

Atlantic City, July 9.-'The American
Flint Glass Workers. Union is holding
its biennial convention here and will
continue in session during the coming
| fortnight.
About 500 delegates are present. The
officers are: President and treasurer,
John kunzler; vice president. Charles
Notrl; secretary. John l.. Dobbins; assist
ant secretary, William j. Clare.
The delegates We're in executive session
today The committee on credentials
met and reported, and the order Of h,lsi-
ness was adopted. Two places are in the
field for the holding of the next convcn-
ton, Alexandria, Nd, and Wheeling,
W. Va, with chances largely in favor
of the latter.
| An interesting feature of the present
session is that it is simultaneous with the
convention of the Glass Bottle Blowers
Association at Milwaukee, and both
bodies will submit the scale of prices
adopted to the employers conference,
which meets here July 90
: The more than probable detection OF
the prescription bottle makers from the
/ flint workers into the ranks of the glass
hottie blowers gives especial Importance
to the gatherings of the two bodies. The
interests of the prescription bottle blow
crs are identical with those of the glass
bottle blowers, since their scale of wages
is fixed by the latter organization. Since
their interests have become common the
dcsirablity of the former uniting their
forces with the latter has been freely
discussed. and it is known that fully IS
I per cent. Of the flint glass bottle blowers
favor such n step. This question will be-
come an interesting issue and a delega-
tion Of the flint men will 20 to Milwaukee
! from this city to confer on the matter.
The subject is likely to cause much dis
,cuSsion.
