Blood Poisoning - The

A physician in Topeka. Kansas, at.
tributed a case OF blood poisoning re.
Gently to a prick from the spines of a
cat fish which had been left in shal.
low pool by the falling waters OF the
Shunganunga river. II was found by
a young son of Mrs. N. Barnett, OF
ia Hancock street, Topeka, who cap
tured II and carried II home after a
struggle. Some OF the wounds its
spines had made were so severe that
the mother poulticed them. Soon one
of the lads fingers began to swell and
became very painful. A physician
dressed It, but the poison remained in
the blood and the boy soon began to
break out with bolls on his face and
neck.
He suffered a great deal, said his
mother in telling the story. His
stomach became in bad condition and
there were running sores on his lips
which were very painful His blood
was in horrible condition and the doc.
tor said It would require a years
treatment with blood medicines TO
purify IT,"
Did it?" she was asked.
II didn't wait to see. My mother.
in-law recommended Dr. Williams

troubled with the bolls or sores since
and his blood is in as good a condi.

Bessie Barclay Prepared to Ship as
Cabin Boy.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Nov. 12.-Bes-
sic Barclay, the. pretty sixteen-year old
daughter of H. A. Barclay and niece of
County Assessor Ben Ward, for the
second time in the last few months has
driven her parents to the verge of dis
traction by running away from her
home in search of adventure. About
the middle of July Miss Barclay sud-
denly disappeared and remained away
for week before she was discovered
staying with friends at Long Beach
The city marshal at Long Beach a
few days ago was again requested to
look out for her, but not finding her
in his bailiwick, went to San Pedro,
where she has been found through the
detective work of Miss Faye Springer,
whom Marshal Williams enlisted to
help him.
Bessie, dressed in boys attire, had
been working in a San Pedro bowling
alley, but, firing of this job, had secur-
ed a position as cabin boy on one of
the vessels in the harbor. Here Miss
Springer found her and easily per-
suaded her to resume her right apparel
and return home. Miss Barclay is a
bright, pretty girl, and her escapades
are believed to be due to desire to
satisfy craving for adventure.

RAD|UM IN The SUN
1t viii Be Sought by Big Hori-
zontai Telescope.

LAKE GENEVA, Wis, Nov. 12.-
Hopes of great astronomical dis
coveries are built upon the new horizon
tai rejecting telescope donated by Miss
Helen Snow to the Yerkes observatory
as a memorial to her father, the late
George w. Snow, of Chicago, and dedi-
Gated last week.
In the manner of its dedication, as
well as in other respects, the new
telescope was unique. A company of
$50 guests had the novel experience of
sitting inside the tube of the star
searcher" when it was declared open
for work These guests sat in the tube
all through the ceremony and watched
the big instrument perform it's work.
The tube, or interior of the telescope,
is a house of wood and not a cylinder
of steel This house is built to take
the place of the ordinary cylinder of
a telescope. 1t is nearly 100 feet long,
and one portion of it is movable.
The adjustable part let's in the light
of the sun, moon or star when neces-
sary. Through the opening the rays
are admitted and allowed to fall on
one mirror for reflection, to a second,
a third and thence to an easel, where
the image of the sun is held at will.
Director Hale is himself conservative
in prophesying great discoveries for
the instrument. He says it is not de-
signed as rival of the great Yerkes
telescope, but only as means to OBJ
tain results which could not be OBJ
tanned without loss of time with the
Yerkes instrument. To use the Yerkes
telescope in spectroscopic and pho
tographic work special instruments
have to be attached to the big tube.
On the new rejecting instrument the
spectroscope or Photographic appli-
ances are stationary and installed
permanently.
With the new instrument a snap
shot of the sun can be taken in one
fivehundredth part of a second and of
the moon in half second. The more
intense the light the less exposure
needed. With the faint light of some
stars an exposure of several hours may
be necessary for good Photographic
and spectroscopic work. 1t is the long
exposure possible with this instrument
that will give it it's greatest value.
With the new apparatus the astron-
omer will have the CELESTIAL image
anchored before him for study, and will
not have to chase it any more athwart
the heavens at night except for GER
tain special lines of study. Some
epoch making results may develop.
Have you yet discovered radium in
the sum-" was a question put to Prof.
Hale
Il cannot say that we have" he re-
piled, but we may yet find it in the
sun. We have found proofs in the
Spectroscope that gold and silver and
magnesium and all the principal min
erals and metals exist in the suns at
mosphere, and therefore upon or in
the sun itself. I should say that all
the conditions are favorable for ra-
dunn in the sun, and it may be that
from more extensive study of the solar
spectrum we will learn how to pro-
duce radium much cheaper than the
price it now COSTS"

GREAT RESERVOIR PLANNED.
Irrigation Project Causes WithdrawaI of
Two Million Montana Acres.

Special to The Globe.
GREAT FALLS, Mont. Nov. Zone
of the greatest Withdrawals of entry land
by the interior department since the irri-
cation law was enacted has been ordered
in Northern Montana, the local land Of
fee receiving instructions to suspend
from entry, except under the restricted
homestead clause, as provided for under
the provisions of the national irrigation
law. 2,142, 900 acres in the Great Falls
land district.
The withdrawal is made in order to
preserve to the public the lands involved
for reclamation under the irrigation law,
should the secretary of the interior decide
to authorize the construction of the St
Marys irrigation canal on the Milk river,
a project which is one of the largest and
most extensive planned by the government
in the reclamation of the arid lands of the
West. A tract of land several hundred
miles square will be reclaimed through
the agency of gigantic reservoir created
by a canal from the Milk river. This
reservoir will necessitate the abandon
-nent of about twenty miles of track of
the Great Northern railway, the site OF
which will be under from IS to 20 feet of
water when the reservoir is full. 1t will
take the Milk river canal two years to
fill this reservoir.
Practically all of the territory in Cas-
cade and Teton counties has been with
drawn, and in Choteau county there re-
mains but small portion of land open
to the settler.

ROBBED AND FORCED TO JUMP.
Story of Hold-Up on Great Northern
s.J}tF FREIGHT Is Verified.

An inquest will be held this morning
upon the remains of Cotton G. Gordon
the Great Northern section hand who was
thrown from a freight train by highway
men near Maple Plain early Wednesday
morning. The train crew will be sub
poenaed and detectives detailed to look
up the case will report.
Frank E. Keller, one of the injured men,
who is at ST. Mary's hospital suffering
from a broken. leg, says that there were
four laborers who had been working on
the Great Northern near w illmar. The
they were riding through a door at the
end, and, lighting some waste. looked
over the men who were lying on some
lumber. l<2sI
Shortly after they returned each with
his face masked with a handkerchief, and
carrying a-reyolver. Gordon was the first
man tackled. He was told to hold up his
hands and did SO while he was robbed Of
Sc. Then he was told to Jump off the car,
and when he begged to : be allowed to
stay on the car until the train slowed
up, was struck in the face with a revolver
and pushed off the train to his death.
Keller was robbed next of 81. 40 and
compelled to jump He struck a culvert
and received compound fracture of the
leg. F. M. Williams and John M. Cater
were next robbed and made to jump, es-
Gaping without injuries. They are at
Maple Plain. but will be brought to the
inquest.
Keller thinks that several other labor
ers in other cars were also robbed and
made to jump off the train.

GREAT GOLD-BEARING
ZONE IN ALASKA
Further Extensive Deposits of the Di-

Special to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
TACOMA, Wash, Nov. 12.-Peter
We'll has returned from Northwestern
Alaska after spending three years in a
most thorough exploration of the gold
bearing country along the Kobuck, I'M
nachuck and Colville rivers. He de-
clares that all three of these great
streams are rich in gold and within a
few years will be producing as much
gold as either Nome or the Klondike.
The discovery of gold in trat Sec
ton proves that the great gold bear
ing zone crosses Alaska from the
Klondike and Forty Mile districts. No
prospecting has been done on. tfne up
per reaches of the river and along both
are hundred mile stretches where white
men have never trod.
