EaDUREs TORTURE IN
FIGHT With DEATH.
oasumpsiye Testing the Efficacy
Of Roentgen x-Rays As a Cure.

Riles Mich, Telegram to the
Chicago ChTonicle, says: .
A. Big Rapids young man is sub
hitting himself to torture IN undergo
ING an experiment to test the efficacy
OF the Rcentgen rays Ia the cure OF
consumption.
The climate Of Western States, the
skill Of specialists and ryJhang
Enown to science were tried In vain,
whereupon the invalid went to Big
Rspids and placed himself In the hands
OF an uncle, well-knoWR physician,
Who determined on heroic measures.
Tbe young man brayely submitted TO
the ordeal, and for some time has been
treated By the X-ray process each day.
The time Of exposure has been
heightened till Fifty minutes at one
sitting has been reached. The theory
Is that if the Roentgen rays will Kill
diIhtheria germs they will kill con-
sumption bacili.
Esor time the patient suffered IN
Seasely. His neck, chest month and
laws we're burned so severely that big
blistsrs showed the terrible effect OF
the rags. At one time his mouth was
fairly closed, and only BY inserting a
p;ece Of pipe could liquid food be adj
minis5ered. The young maj. realizes
that it is life or death, and willingly
uns3ergees the treatment. BE now
feels that the germs have been killed
by the rays and that by and by ne
viii be restored TO health. He is able
60 wait On himself. which in itself IS
encouraging, and his physicians think
there is possibly new lease OF lie
IN store for him.

DEAR OLD BULLETIN - Beautiful
spring has come. The snow rs about
all gone along the river bottom and
the south side hills are covered with
grass. Wild flowers arc in bloom and
so is the funny little wood-ticke. These
majestic bugs all have good sppeti.es
and don't hesitate 10 tackle even .
tough old prospector like myself. l
have killed several already this spring
but had to do it in self-defense.
The birds have returned 10 their
summer home and the song Of the
Robin disturbs the slumbers OF the
weary miner in the early morning
hours. The trees are clothing them
selves in foliage and all nature seems
TO rejoice. Surely there 10 no place
more beautiful than these towering
mountains at the first blush OF spring.
There is not much being done yet
in the way Of mining, but preparations
are being made for buoy summer. A
few men are working on the Mountain
View. They now have about 30 tons
of high grade free milling ore on the
dump and many hundreds Of tons
more fn sight.
A cross. cut TUNE, was started last
fall on the Live Yankee mine. but will
have 70 be run about 100 feet further
TO tap the ledge, which will be at a
depth Of ITO feet.
Some OF the Pine Grove nobility are
talking OF going over to London to
witness the coronation OF King Ed
ward VII, and If they do | shall 60
along and request his royal hishness
to annex Pine Grove 10 the British
empire. Secretary Hay and Roose-
welt have already been annexed, but
the Beers havn't. There is some mis-
understanding between them and Ed
ward, and they don't annex worth a
cent-but it is believed that il Lord
Kitchnor had 100000 more soldiers
he could capture few more helpless
women and children and corral them
with barbed wire fences.
| Our public school cloeed for the
term last Friday. Miss Mary Ryan
who has taught for the past two terms
has won the admiration Of both pa
rents and pupils, besides making I
host OF other friends, and IL is hoped
her services can be secured for thu
next term, which begins in June.
