the Surgeons Knives.
The Startling Details Of Ills Plans for
yivisection Not Likely to BE Carr
ricd out Owing to the OBJ
lection Of His Wife.

a BROOKLYN doctor, James Edwin
Russell, has come forward with the
startling proposition OF becoming tbs
subject Of yiyisectionists for the adj
vancement Of science, and in defense
Of the practice IN the interests Of the
human race. but his wife says he

ton will prevent the realization OF
his self-imp9sea sacrifice, even though
he we're able 70 find surgeon scientists
who would meet his conditions and
proceed to cut him up and experiment
upon him as long as life lasted. Or.
Russell, who is one OF the best-known
physicians Of Brooklyn, having prac-
ticed medicine there for IL years, in
his statement to The public says:

OIL AS FUEL IN NAVY.
Congress Asked to Make ADproDria-
tion for the Purpose of Thor
ough Experiment.

Admiral Melville is in favor Of ex-
perimenting with oil as fuel for the
vessels Of the navy, and through the
secretary of the navy has recommend
ed that congress appropriate $4,000
for the investigation of the best means
Of burning liquid fuel. In his letter
transmitted to congress Admiral Mel
Vile says:
I'm view Of the fact that there now
of crude petroleum, both in California
and Texas oil fields. which can be de-
livered at tidewater at a comparative
~ slight cost, the bureau believes there
is necessity to commence extended ex-
periments for determining how this
combustible Gan be adapted for naval
uses
THE bureau deems 1t unnecessary to
tell Of the many resulting advantages
which would accrue from the success
full burning of liquid fuel on board a
warship. ] would state that if the bu-
reau deems it compatible with the best
interests of the service 10 accept large
quantities of this fuel for experiment
al purposes, an unlimited amount can
probably be secured free of cost"
For some time Admiral Melville
who is one Of the most progressive
men in the navy, has advocated these
experiments, and he strongly and spe-
officially recommended them last year,
rs well as this, in his annual report.
Those interested in the production of
oil are also anxious to hpve the exper-
iments made as Admiral Melville inti-
mates in his letter that they are will
ing to furnish free of cost all the oil
necessary to demonstrate whether or
not it would be advantageous and prac-
ticable for the navy to use oil for fuel.

ODD FELLOWS.
Sovereign Grand Lodge to Be Held
In Des MoInes.

The sovereign grand lodge of the
Independent Odd Fellows will be In
session at Des Moines September Is
to 20 inclusive. This Is the highest
law-making body of the order of Odd
Fellows and represents the United
States and twenty-six foreign juris-
dictions. While the membership of
the sovereign grand lodge is only
about two hundred, Odd Fellows
from all over the United States will
be present, drawn together by inter-
est in Odd Fellowship and by the So
$50 offered in prizes for the comforting
of degrees and the military branch of
the order known as the Patriarchs
Militant.
The sovereign grand lodge was in
vited to meet in Iowa by resolution
of the Iowa grand lodge at a meeting
held at Keokuk two years ago. At
the subsequent meeting of one year
ago the grand lodge of Iowa appoint
ed committees to take charge of the
welcome offered to the sovereign
grand lodge and also made an appro-
priation to assist in paying the ex-
penses Of such welcome. The other
grand bodies also made appropria-
tions and the lodges in the city of
Des Moines have so far contributed
to the funds in large amount. Other
funds will be forthcoming when
needed.
The great Auditorium at Des
Moines has bsen engaged for the
meeting of the sovereign and grand
lodge. Ten smaller halls have been
engaged in which to exemplify the
degrees during the week. Every day
and night will be occupied with some
thing interesting to Odd Fellows.
Every branch of the order will be
equally honored. The arrangements
made for welcome to the Rebekahs
is on most liberal scale.

The king Crowned.

Later the archbishop had similar
difficulty, owing to near-sightedness,
in placing the crown on the kings
head. In fact, the choir started
"God Save the King" while the arch
bishop of Canterbury was still striv-
ing to place the crown on the rul-
er's head, and great shout went up
and the electric lights were
turned on.
AS the reclamation died away the
changing joy-bells. the noise OF guns
and the shouting of people outside
penetrated into the abbey, where
the king still, sat, motionless, his
dazzling crown on his head and his
scepter held firmly in his hand.
Pay Homage to the King.
After singing ''Be Strong and Play
the Man" and the Bible having been
presented, the king advanced and
knelt while he received the bene-
diction. He then walked to the
great throne. where he stood on the
dais for the first time. surrounded
by mobiles. The archbishop of Can

MANCHESTER TAPPED.
ottumwa Hotel Man Is Robbed In
Denver.

Denver, Colo, Aug. 11.-Every
time that James o. Manchester,
proprietor of the Hotel Ballingall, of
Ottumwa, Iowa, and owner of numer-
GUS farms thereabouts, leaves home
he loses in cash the value of quar-
ter section of land. He did not fail
when he arrived in Denver yesterday.
Mr.. Manchester had in his wallet
drafts and checks to the value of $500
and in currency, good anywhere in
the country, $50. With his wife, he
got on a "Seeing Denver" car yes
terday afternoon for a trip around
the city. Wen he returned it was
gone.
Mr.. Manchester notified the police,
wired to banks stopping payment on
the drafts and checks, and borrowed
5000 from Colonel Tanning. He went
on with his wife last night to the
Knights of Pythias conclave in San
Francisco.

age, the aged prelate scarcely being
able to rise until the king assisted
him and himself raised the arch
bishops hands from the steps of
the throne. The archbishop. who
seemed to be in faint. had to prac-
tically be carried to the altar. The in
cident created considerable excite
ment and several prelates rushed
forward to help the primate.
Prince of wales at Kings Feet.
The next person to pay homage to
his majesty was the prince of Wales,
who knelt until King Edward held
out his hands. which he kissed after
touching the crown as sign of
fealty. The prince of Wales then
started to raturn to his seat, when
the king drew him back and put his
arms around him and kissed him.
After this ths king once more gave
the prince his hand, this time to
shake, and the hearty vigor of King
Edwards grasp showed that his
hand at any rate had not lost it's
strength.
The Queen Is Crowned.
The queen then rose and, accom-
panied by her encourage, proceeded
10 the altar steps, where, under
pail of cloth-of-gold, she was quick
ly crowned by the archbishop of
York, supported by the bishops.
She was then led to the throne be-
side that in which the king sat and
her enthronization was accomplished.
The queen bowed to King Edward,
and both walked to the altar and re-
ceived the communion, after deliver
ing their crowns to the lord great
chamberlain and another officer APP
pointed to hold them. The pages,
while their majesties knelt, still held
the queens magnificent long train
with the rest of the mobiles present
kneeling. The rest of the spectacle
was impressive and was made more
brilliant by the electric light.
By great effort the archbishop
of Canterbury was enabled to con-
clude the service and the king and
queen repaired to st. Edwards chap
ell. Neither of their majesties re-
turned to their thrones after the
communion, but remained at the
altar. The services, which was COM
pleted with the singing of TIE Deum,
was brought to a close without
hitch. The king exhibited no out
ward traces of fatigue.
