Let's suppose you are using lead and

that against gallon of lead and oil, and
what will 1t do? sOne.fifth as much.
How much OF your labor is wasted?

NEW GOVERNMENT INSTALLED.
Has Control Of Entire Territory of San
Domingo

The gloomy picture Of conditions in San
Domingo Is conveyed in a report to the
State Department. the author of which is
a prominent citizen Of that country. He
says that the public debt Is about $40, &C.,
600. mostly owing to foreigners. The nomi-
nal income Is 81, 100000, but out of this
must be paid So, 600 monthly to the Capt.
tai Improvement Company, 10 per cent to
holders of the imperial debt and 2h per
cent to the holders Of the foreign debt, be-
sides all the government debt and miscella-
neous expenses.
The writer asserts that the government
not being able to provide funds to cover the
budget is obliged to borrow money at 2
that the time will soon come when it can
not get the money to pay its urgent needs.
The Belgian bondhoiders have not been
paid for the past five months. and the i'm
provement company has not received it's
March payment He says the Belgians
have right, under their agreement in
case of default, to take possession of the
customs houses. and the writer predicts that
in that case the holders of other nations
will also come forward, perhaps seizing
one or two ports, and leading to a repeti
ton of the Venezuelan affair.
A late telegram. though undated, from
! Minister Powell reports that the Vasquez
government has fallen; that new pro-
visional government has been created which
has the entire territory under it's control,

case of man. who as the result of a ma

foreign body by means of the great IIaa5
magnet. At a distance of one and three
quarter inches the action of the ma sDcs
produced such violent disturbance WITHIN
the eye that 1T seemed as though the latter
would be pulled from its socket This left
no doubt as to the location and nature OF
the foreign body. The wound in the covnea
was thereupon enlarged, and when the eye
was then brought into almost actual con-
tact with the magnet piece of steel about
four millimeters long and about three and
one-half millimeters wide was drawn out
through the original hole in the lens. iris
and cornea, and became adherent to the
pole of the magnet. An opthalmoscoplc
examination made subsequent to the re-
moval of the foreign body showed a hem
orrhage of the vitreous. After a period of
ten days treatment the patient was dis
charged from the infirmary with the hole in
the cornea and iris partially closed, and his
vision was about two-thirds normal. There
was no further cloudiness of the lens, In
