Medical Journal Discusses the
Death of MIR. Mckinley.

New York, Sept. 1s.-The next edition
of the New York Medical Journal will
discuss the case of President McKin-
ley 1t will say:
1T is melancholy consolation to
know that the fatal termination OF
President McKinleys case was not in
the slightest degree due to any omis-
sion to give him the full benefit of all
the present resources of our art; and
there is nothing humiiating in the fact
that the favorable prognosis which for
FIVE or six days seemed justified should
have finally proved fallacious.
"At the time of his assassination
President Mckinley was probably in
better physical condition than most
men of his age, that is, men who lead
a sedentary life. So far as is known,
he was free from all organic disease.
though his vitality may have been
somewhat impaired by the fearful men
tai strain to which the duties of his
office and its responsibilities and anx-
ieties had long subjected him. He was
suddenly cut down by cruel wounc.

From Tit Bits.
Members of the royal family. from
the King downward, rarely, if ever,
contradict, through the medium of the
press or otherwise, any statement
made concerning them. The King,
however. who with all his family is
a great newspaper and magazine read

a unique and most fascinating book,
be 1t said-which His Majesty calls
1.-The Book of Royal Contradictions.
In this book are some hundreds of
cuttings" from various newspapers,
etc, all of which have something to
say, not only about His Majesty him
self, but also about other royal per-
sonages. Underneath these cuttings"
are written the royal criticisms, and
often the royal contradictions.
One of these cuttings" referring to
some great work in Scotland in which
the King, as the Prince of Wales, was
taking part, says: His Royal High
ness is evidently influenced-and right
ly infiuenced-by the feelings of the
Scotch people"
Underneath this the Prince has writ
ten: 1.-The writer of above was evi-
QeHllY liShlly
enced-by Scotch whisky"
Another cutting" has something to
say concerning the appetite of His
Royal Highness:
1.-THE Prince of Wales has a truly
patrician palate. His Royal Highness
certainly eats little, and only of the
choicest and most delicately prepared
dishes"
Underneath the Prince has humor-
ously put: "Beefsteak and (when quite
alone) onions invariably delight my
'patrician palate.
The Duke of Cornwall and York is.
as all the world knows. one of the
straightest spoken of men, and hates
pretence in any shape or form. His
ROYAL Highness. for instance. has new
er pretended to be a musician He is
not musical. and he sensibly knows
that he Is not. One well meaning pa
per, however. piles" even this accom-
plishment upon him. II says:
THE Duke Of York. though not pos
sessing a strong voice, has an exquisite
ear for music, and is great lover OF
Mendelssohn.

The last cutting to be placed in
this charming book was when the
German Emperor paid his memorable
visit to this country a few months ago.
All the newspapers were full of his I'M

leading newspapers said:

From the Baltimore Sun.
Prof. A. H. Patterson of the Univer-
sity of Georgia, at Athens, Ga. who
was in Baltimore last week on a visit
to relatives, was a witness of the popu-
lar demonstration against Czolgosz
after the shooting of the President and
while the assassin was being conveyed
to prison. Professor Patterson says
that Czolgosz came much nearer falling
into the hands of the enraged crowd
than was generally supposed and that
he did not was very largely due to the
little Irish hackman," who has fire.

81 happened to be in a position where
| saw everything that TRANSFERRED, from
the time Czolgosz was brought out OF
the room into which he was first hur-
ried until the carriage was some dis
lance away" said Professor Patter-
son, land Czelgosz was taken away none
too soon, for the crowd was growing
with wonderful rapidity and becoming
more dangerous every second. l never
saw SO. desperate and determined
throng, but it lacked leadership and a
plan OF action. In spite of that, now
ever / thought CzolgoSz was certainly
gone half a dozen times. The inturl-
ated men pushed aside the bayonets OF
the guard, and the guard too, ana
seized the wheels of the carriage, pay
ing not the slightest attention to the
drawn revolvers of the police nor their
threats to shoot. / believe If shot
had been fired it would have frenzied
the crowd so that nothing could have
withstood il.
LAS il was the carriage was brought
to stand several times. Every time
II stopped, however, the Irish haekman,
standing on his box. slashed right and
left with his long whip. In fact he kept
his whip in motion continually, and
with practiced hand he would cut his
horses and then snap 1t in the faces of
the crowd. He slashed II across the
faces of the men holding the wheels,
and every time he did so they fell back,
although paying no regard to the muz-
2les of the loaded revolvers. With
every swish of the whip the crowd
would loosen its hold and the horses
would bound forward fora short dis
lance until stopped again. This was
kept up until the densest part Of the
crowd was passed. Without that hack
man and his whip I do not believe
czolgosz would ever have escaped
alive"

HIGH EXPLOSIVES
Do Not Hurt Armor When They Burst
on the Surface.


Experiments undertaken by the Uni
ted States Government expressly to
test the theory that if a sufficiently
large amount of high explosive can be
detonated against or in close proximity
to battleship, the battleship will be,
to use the pet term of promoters, ami
hilated, have proved that it is abso-
lutely false.
On one occasion, Harveyized steel
plate, representing the side armor of
the United States battleship Kearsarge,
was tested by the defamation of 3O7
pounds of guncotton, which was sus-
pended for the purpose Immediately in
front of the plate. Instead of being
blown into theoretical thousands of
fragments" the plate was undisturbed,
and a slight and harmless scoring on
the face of the plate was the only evil
dence, so far as the armor was con-
cerned, of the explosion. Of four chick
ems placed either Immediately behind
the plate, or within from twenty-five
to fifty feet of the guncotton, two sur
vived without the slightest sign of be-
Ing injured; one was killed by a flying
fragment of shell "a result which does
not affect the argument, and only one
appeared to have died from shock.
Prof. Alger, the greatest expert in this
country, or probably in any country,
on this very question, says: 'This ex-
pertinent would seem completely to dis
pose of the theory that high-explosive
shell of very large capacity will blow
in the side Of an armored vessel if it
exploded against it," and he further
says that "the velocity of the shell
would add materially nothing to the
effect of a defamation, the rush of
whose gases is determined by a pres
sure of hundreds of tons per square
inch.'
1t is the opinion of Prof. Alger and
every ordnance expert the world over
that for high explosive to be effective
1t must be carried by the shell through
the armor, and burst within the hull
of the ship itself. This conclusion was
strikingly borne out by the experiments
on the Belleisle, made early in the
present year. The high-explosive shells
were burst upon contact with the ar
NOR, and left no further trace than a
harmless star splash on the outside of
the ship.-Scientific American.

AT THE PAN-AMERICAN
Movement to Exhibit Products of The
California Oil Industry

The movement looking to proper
exhibition of the fruits of the oil in
dustry of California at the Pan-Amer-
lean exposition is meeting with much
encouragement, and it very properly
should. The oil men of this state
should be deeply interested in show
ing the east what the oil business in
California is. In the Paris Exposition
the state was represented in the Amer
lean petroleum exhibit. and the oil
men have come to the conclusion that
it would not do to omit an opportun-
ity like the one offered. The time is
short now. but the vim that is being
put into the plan insures it's success.
The movement was inaugurated by
the members of the oil exchange, and
has received the endorsement of the
chamber of commerce, to which the eX-
hibit will revert after the fair has
closed. A petition is now being cir
culated among the oil companies and
subscriptions are asked for to defray
the expenses of the exhibit.

An apprentice to the Edinburgh sur

the chloroform to this young man. Six
weeks before that Mr.. Morrison had
taken ether in order to have a tooth ex-
tracted, and when he desired to have
another tooth pulled he was told of the
discovery of a new anaesthetic by Prof.
Simpson. and asked if he would submit
to the test. Mr.. Morrison, after reflect
ing for few minutes on the blessings
this discovery might bring to suffering
humanity, decided to run the risk This
was about 10 in the morning, and the

Of number of scientific. men, Mr..
Morrison wrote a letter to Prof. Simp-
sen freeing him from any responsibility
if there should be any accident or in
the event of death. The anaesthetic
proved efficaciOus in about one minute,
and Mr.. Morrison soon recovered, and
he is still proud of the fact that he was
Simpsons first patient under chloro-
form. During the fifty odd years since
then Mr.. Morrison as dentist has adj
ministered chloroform to more than
10000 cases without a single accident.

The Story is Told by a Father who is
Grateful for His Daughters
Recovery.

No. 81 Lincoln Avenue, Cortland, N.
| Y, was once a house of sorrow and
sadness. The daughter of George
Loucks, the pride of the household,
seemed going into a decline as she
reached her early womanhood, and her
condition caused the greatest anxiety
in the family. The happy ending of
the matter caused considerable excite
ment in the neighborhood, and, when
questioned by a reporter, Mr.. Loucks
made the following statement:
about two years ago my daughter,
who was then in her sixteenth year,
was in bad health. She was pale and
thin, without strength or vitality; in
fact, her condition was that which is
generally called all run down. We
were, of course, worried about her and
employed the best physicians to attend
| her. They studied her case, and al
though they did everything possible,
gave her no relief which was perma-
nent. The late DR.. Angle had first
called my attention to DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People, and my
wife had heard they were fine tonic,
so we decided to try them for my
daughter. We did so, and inside of
eight weeks the primary cause of her
trouble was removed and she showed
decided gain in health, strength and
flesh.
GA great many people will buy a
medicine and take few doses. Then,
if they are not cured, they throw it
aside as no good, or take it spasmo-
Ideally. We believe in fair trial
in strict accordance with directions,
and our faithfulness was rewarded,
for she was greatly benefited by them.
Her color came to her cheeks and she
continued to gain in weight and
strength. We have told a great many
people about them, and have been glad
to do so.''
