TARANTUlA BITE.
Remarkable Effect Of Deadly Poison on
Healthy System.


Healthy System.
New York Medical Journal.1
DIR. j. s. Boyers reports the case OF
man, So years of age, of good physique
and in good health, who was bitten by
tarantula in the right index between the
first and second joints. He was seen
within two minutes. The man seemed
dazed and complained OF intense, burning,
sharp pain. DIR. Boycrs cut off the circu-
lation of blood in the finger with a mar
row bandage. He then made crucial
incision to the bone over the site OF in
fcction and held the finger under the hy-
drant, rubbing it thoroughly in the run
ming water about one minute, and applied
saturated solution of potassium per-
manganate, kneading it thoroughly into
the wound. The patient then reclined OH
couch, as he was scarcely able to sit up.
His pulse grew very weak and could
scarcely be felt at the wrist. His heart
beat very feebly, 38 to 40 beats per min
ute. One of the most alarming symptoms
was a spasmodc difficulty of breathing,
in which the muscles seemed almost com
pletely paralyzed, lasting for a period Of
one-half to two minutes, and returning
every three to eight or ten minutes, at
first, but gradually at longer intervals, and
disappearing entirely in four or five hours.
His complexion was of an ashen hue The
extremetics were cold and bathed in per-
spiration. The pupils we're slightly di-
lated, and when he was spoken to he
opened his eyes and stared, not knowing
the location of the speaker His hearing
was considerably impaired. He did not
recover from the effects of the poison
sufficiently to know things clearly for
eight or nine hours. The first symptoms
after the bite were the burning, sharp
pain at the site of injury, very unusual
full feeling Of the head and an unsteadi-
ness Of gait The tarantula that bit him
was found. 1t was five inches in length
and of brown color. 1t was a female
with eggs, and young and very vicious.
The constitutional treatment consisted
first of I-3o grain of strychninc with 100
grain OF ntroglycerin hypodermically, and
during the first hour and half after the
bite he was given i'll all, by mouth and hy-
podcrmically, in small doses frequently
repeated I-Is grain OF strychnine, 1888
grain of nitroglycerin, I-33 grain of afro
phine, IS grain of morphine, ounce of
aromatic spirits OF ammonia and ounces
of the best brandy besides using artificial
heat. The bowels kidneys and skin were
kept active. He made an uninterrupted
recovery in four or five days.

SOME OF THE RESULTS.

The Inter Mountains prediction that the
states comprising the New West would
choose republican congressman to represent
them at the next session of the national
legislature, has been realized to the fullest
extent. Py calling attention to this fact
the Inter Mountain does not mean to boast
Of any particular political perspicacity, but
the fact is mentioned at this time SO as to
impress the public that we are not of that
tribe of lukewarm journals who desiring
TO get into the bandwagon, will soon begin
to echo the "me-to" chorus. The Inter
Mountains republicanism is Of too long
standing.
The election of republican congressman
Is a significant fact from which certain
very important conclusions can safely be
drawn. First and foremost, it is most
powerful Endorsement of President Roose.
welt, message telling him that the voters,
not only of the country at large, but more
especially Of the New West are with him.
1t was the first opportunity that they have
had since the national campaign of 1900 to
express their sentiments on the way affairs
were going, and tho splendid majorities
everywhere show that the people are salts
fed.

DEAD CHILD

New York Cor. Philadelphia Record.
Notwithstanding that 7-year-old Es-
ther II. Quinby of White Plains is dead,
John c. Lathrop Christian Science doc
tor Of this city, who attended the child
during her illness with diphtheria, will!
appear at the coroner's inquest to declare
that she still lives in mind. although she
has lost her bodily manifestation.
He will defy the authorities to prove
that his treatment caused the change in
the childs condition.
Life is deathess," said he today. The
child has simply dropped off the material
body manifestation. There is no room for
death. Esther is alive"
Coroner Banning is determined to make
a thorough investigation and hold some
body responsible for the child's death
and bring the case before the grand jury.
"How did you treat Esther" Mr.. La
throp was asked. wasn't she too young
to understand the doctrines of Christian
Science and believe in the power of mind

SCHOOL CHILDREN
Over Seventeen Millions OF Them
Average Expenditure Increased.


milwaukee Sentinel.l
The annual report of the commissioner
OF education shows that the grand total
OF pupils IN schools elementary, second
ary and higher, both public and private.
but emitting certain special schools. in
the United States in the year which
ended June 20, 1901, was ~, 800, ,s3o, an in
crease of a78,sao pupils over the pre-
vious year. OF this number the enroll
ment Of pupils in institutions supported
by general and local taxes was I5,71o.3o4.
When the enrolment of special schools
above referred to is added TO this. the
aggregate is more than i7,75o.ooo.
An idea of the increase of value of
property used for public school purposes
can be obtained when it is known that
in 1870 the property OF the public schools
Of the United States was estimated at
$3.50, $50 .ooS and that in 1901 it had risen
to $576,o63 3,oSo. The annual expenditure
per capita of the population was $I.64 in
1870 and last year it was $2.o5. This ed
ucational record is more remarkable than
that Of any country in the world. The
prosperity and progress of th,~ United
States is due largely 10 the work of its
lished for himself more lasting renowii as
ers into Americans and which train ma
tive-born children 10 be good citizens.
When it is remembered that the eli.
tire population OF the United States is
estimated at 77,ooo,ooo, the enrolment OF
I7,75o,ooo pupils proves how large per-
centage of the inhabitants of the United
States is engaged i'll acquiring an educa-
tion. 1t also tends TO show that how
ever low the birth rate may he in America
there is vast army of children to be
taken care of in the public schools. Doubt
less many of the I7,75o,ooo pupils are OF
foreign parentagc. but even though this
may be the case there is still fair pro-
portion to be attributed to native Ameri-
can families.

A REAL CIRCUS ELEPHANT.

you may talk about our trick ele-
phants,' said the old circus man, but Bon
iface, way back III the 7os, was about the
best of the lot. He was a performing
brute and press agent rolled into one,
and he thought up as many gags as the old
man did.
IL remember one time we were playing
in South Carolina 1t was a small town
with no convenienccs, and as they had no
water supply they had to water the lawns
with buckets in the dry season.
"Boniface was going along at the head
of the procession when he spied them
watering the courthouse lawn in this primi-
tive fashion.
"He dropped out of line, while the parade
halted, and standing by the horse trough
watered that lawn with his trunk as neatly
as any professional gardener could have
done it, Then he resumed his place in
line and for three weeks wherever we
played the people focked to see the ele-
phant fountain
"We were the first to use the elephant
as freight handler, but when we loaned
him one morning to the highway commits
sion to drag steam roller that had broken
down, we played to bigger business than
we had ever done in that town. After that
we carried roller with us, and when we
came to hard place (t was wagon
show) we would fix lip the road.
II tell you Boniface earned his hay and
the pint of whisky he used to have with
his lunch beside"
"Yes," said the old circus man, "Boni-
face, shure, was the best trained elephant
that ever happened. The things that beast
would do would surprise an outsider, and

"The Penitent" Tonight.

"Thc Penitent," which bears the hall
marks Of Caine, the author of "The Chris
tian," is to be presented at the Broadway
by Manager w. L. Nankeyille's superb
dramatic organization. We are told that
this work, more than any of his others,
shows the versatility the depth OF thought
and the intimate acquaintance with the
world at large such as no other author
has possessed outside of Dickens. In
word, Hall Canc in this work shows that
he is the greatest OF all modern character

Rope Making in Manila.

A special dispatch to the Times from
the state of Washington states that
gentleman of that community has es-
tablished the first factory equipped with
modern machinery ever established for
the making of Manila rope in the city Of
that name.
The marvellous thing is that this fac
tory was not established three years ago,
and still greater marvel Is that ar
rangements have not been made for the
exploitation Of American enterprise In
the Philippines in other directions than
