For Cure OF Consumption.

With regard to the glass hospital
which is to be erected at Philadelphia
for the cure of consumption, with iso-
lation for each patient and constant
supply of rarefled air, a similar expert
mental hospital is already in use in
London. The patient sits in a glass
cubicle, breathing an atmosphere spe-
cially treated by ozone. The value of
oxygen, or ozone, in the treatment of
ulcers, burns. wounds, lupus, etc, has
been proved there by several cures of
hitherto incurable cases during the
past five years. Great as has been
the actual relief thus afforded, this
oxygen hospital exists equally for pur-
poses of demonstration and expert
ment.

In destruction to property. in loss
TO business, even in the number Of ia
talities, the freshets which have swept
over large areas in the Middle Atlantic
states and New England will long be
memorable. Falling rains and melt

lakes and creeks into torrents; and in
hundreds of valleys the spreading
waters caused destruction and death.
Manufacturing plants by the hundreds
were forced to suspend; mercantile
houses were Hooded thousands of peo-

wrought was heavy. Farm houses
were swept away and hundreds of do
nestle animals were borne along in
the terrific current. -
In the Wyoming valley the loss to
property was heavy. Mines were flood
ed and fully $4,000 miners were thrown
into involuntary idleness. 1t is esti-
mated that $4,000 persons were forced
to leave their homes and seek safety
in high places. At Kingston two men
were drowned by the capsizing of a

merged Street car traffic between the
two cities was abandoned and scores
of mills were forced to shut down. In
some places the water covered the sec
ond floors of buildings, and many
structures collapsed under the great
pressure. The tracks of several rail-
roads were flooded. and traffic had to
be abandoned. The damage may ex-
ceed $l0O0,0O0.
In northwestern Pennsylvania the
property loss occasioned by the floods
will probably total S5,0O0,00O, while
over a score of lives were sacrificed

Montezuma's Millions.

Dr. Rowaton believes that Montezu-
mas long-buried millions, billions or
trillions will some day be found in the
hills of Yucatan, down in the country
of the Polyucs, near Lake Chichanka-
nab. He estimates that the fund still
unaccounted for amounts to 100000,
600 900 pesos, worth in our gold about
SlS0000 100000. This mysterious fund
has been growing these 60 years, start
ing at something like 100000 pesos.
Many lives have been lost in the i'm
penetrable forests of Oaxaca, Chiapas,
Guatemala and Honduras in the search
for this treasure. which, in the opinion
of most folk, is a myth. Last year a
young explorer from Chicago declared
that he had traced its hiding place to
the vicinity of Quezaltepeque, which is
at the base of the Mirandon Noun
tains. Here he contracted the scourge
and barely escaped with his life.

one of TIC. .sreatest heroes of the battle
of Bunker Hill, and The very last nan

able fight, Peter Sunderland.
By the time the Bsitish had made
the third charge up the grade the pow
der supply in the fort had become eH-
hausted, and the Americans were
obliged to fight with gunstocksA clubs
and stones. Mr. Sunderland, after eX-i
hausting his own supply Of ammuni-
tion picked up three guns Of wounded
comrades. only to find that each of
them had been discharged. He raised
the fourth gun when a British soldier
aimed a blow at his neck with aswore.

was partially parried, 'causifs the

Sunderland's abdomen' but' at the
same time the fourth! gun which
luckily proved to be loaded was dis
charged into his antagonist, and the
bayonet on the gun was thrust through
him killing him instantly. The fate
of this warrior seemed to check the
other soldiers for a moment, and Mr..
Sunderland, who was the last man to
leave the fertilization, escaped TO the
swamps below, where he found man,
large handkerchief about his abdomen,
and the two men and the woman swan

be pitched from one to the other at

the man and woman having sought
safety in night. His comrades came
back daily to search for the wounded,
but he could not make them hear, ow-
ing to his exhausted condition. On
the third day he attracted the attention
of his comrades by breaking some
sticks and was rescued.
He went to Ohio about 1917 and set
tied on land near Dayton. Soon after
this he came to Ft. Amanda, where his
son, Dye Sunderland, entered land that
is still owned by the Sunderlands.

Col. Thomas G. LaTler, postmaster
OF Rockforl, ILL.,. tells an interesting
story OF Gen. Turchin's widow, to
whom the senate has voted a pension
of $50 a month. Mrs. Turchin has
been at the door of actual want at her
home in Radon for several months.
Contributions by members of the
Grand Army of the Republic and
others have been sent to her from
time to time.
At the outbreak of the war Gen.
George B. Mcclellan was a civil en-
gineer in the employ of the Illinois
Central and Turchin was an assistant
on the same road. Col Lawler was
machinist in the shops, and all Joined
the Nineteenth Illinois regiment.
Mrs. Turchin followed her husband
when his regiment was called 10
Washington TO defend the capital after
the battle of Bull Run. En- route the
train went through bridge, the tim
bers of which had been cut by the
Knights of the Golden Circle, near
Vincennes. Many of the soldiers were
badly injured, and on this occasion
Mrs. Turchin cut up much of her cloth
ing for bandages.
Col. Lawler says that il Is a matter
of record that Mrs. Turchin, in Paint
Rock Valley, between Winchester,
Tenn. and Larkinsville. Ala, went to
the rear and brought up a section OF
artillery and personally directed its
fire ON the bushwhackers who were
mercilessly peppering the federals
from the rocks OF the mountain.
