CURED BLOOD POISONING.
Injection of Formalin Said to Have
Worked Wonders.

The New York, Herald of today says:
Experiments in Bellevue Hospital, 1t 10
annt unced, by the New YORK ODstetrica'
Society have resulted in the discovery OF
new treatment for blood poisoning, which
DR.. Egbert Grandin, president OF the So
clety, declares one of the most important
contributions to medical science OF this gen.
Grafton.
1.-THE treatment consists of injection into
the veins Of fogmalM. well-knoWn anu
septic. The discovery was made by Dr.
Charles C. Barrows of this city. His ex-
periments were made on patient who was
Christmas day. TheIpatient "a negro Wo-
man, suffering, from blood poisoning, haol
given birth to a, child eight days previously.
"A small portion OF the womans blooo
was submitted to1ceiture m PROM IN a glass sass
tube Dr. Buxton. bacteriologist of Cor
nell Medical College, found the culture was
infected with the yirulent bacteria or sep
ticaemia which are known Is streptoc0cci.
1.-THE. woman s condition had become dan
gerous under the ordinary surgical treat
ment employed The temperature was lOo
degrees and pulse Of 16O. With this rise
Of pulse and temperature recovery could
not be expected; in fact, was without pre-
cedefrt.- DR.. Barrows determined to take
a bold step, as several Of his colleagues be-
lieved the patient was dying. Into a vein
in her right arm he injected 500 cubic CEN
timeterS or formailn. AT the tiIHe INC W.
man was delirlous and her pulse barely
noticeable. improvement began almost i'm
mediateiy. Next day her temperature had
fallen to 101 degrees, with a corresponding
fall in the pulse beats. On the succeeding
day, however the temperature began to
rise again An examination Of another
sample OF the patients blood showed that,
while the septicaenia5 bacilli were present,
their number lad been greatly depleted.
"a second injection of $50 cubic centime-
tiers of formalin was then made. this time
into the blood vessels of the woman's left
arm. In few hours the woman'S pulse
and tempera ture became normal.
1.-The patients condition has continued
excellent for ten days. and she will soon be
discharged.
No Injurious effects have been observed
from the use of the drug, which was never
before employed in this manner
A series of experiments Is now being
made upon animals TO determine whether
fects when injected into the normal blood"

DEWEY's BRAVE CAREER.

FOR POLICE PROTECTION.
Without More Men, Officials Say, Re
quest Cannot Be Granted.

The suburb of Brookland has appealed to
the Commissioners for better police protec-
tion In letter on the subject M. P. Ellis,
secretary Of the BrooF'and Citizens Asso-
citation, says: Under che present DISPOSE
ton Of the policemen assigned to duty here
it Is almost impossible for a police officer
TO be found after midnight To remove this
objection we suggest that the local police
men do reserve duty in the engine mouse.
If this is not possible then the resident po-
Hcemen might be directed to do their re-
serve at their homes We understand that
one of the bicycle squad lives here, as well
as the two local men. The Benning and
Ivy City policemen do their reserve duty
at their homes"
The letter was referred to Lieutenant
Kenney Of the tenth precinct, who submit
ted report to the effect that 1.-The Brook
land beat is covered from 8 o'clock in the
morning until 12 O'Clock midnight with a
mounted man going at large and post
duty officer sta toned at the University
railroad station. After midnight the mount
ed men patrol the beat The assignment
to Brookland Is made every tour of duty
even if the force Of the city portion OF the
precinct Is reduced t6 do 1t. If at any time
through leave sickness or forced detail the
regular officer of the beat is absent the
standing order Of the precinct is to start a
man from the city force in time to cover
the beat until o'clock in the morning. A
strict understanding exists with men on the
beat and station to modify the station of all
emergency cases that additional force may
leave for the scene at once.
The precinct has its fair share of men
for patrol service. Other precincts nave
the same problems to solve. The superin-
tendent Of police has explained the situa-
ton in every annual report. 1t has but
one solution-more officers"
Major Sylvester, in forwarding the re-
port to the Commissioners, states that the
report Of Lieutenant kenney shows that
he Is doing all DIN his power to give police
protection to the residents of the outlying
sections.
Commissioner West has suggested that
copies of the reports be forwarded to the
association with the statement that the
Commissioners appreciate the justice of
the complaint, and hope with an increased
police force to afford the proper remedy.

HOW TO GET RICH.
Plan Adopted by Young Man and It's

How to get rich Is phrase that has

ton at the New Willard. ITO its sound
every one lends an attentive ear. It Is only
natural. We say money talks and money
does this and that. In fact money does
everything and anything. except buy hap

of progress in motion, and how to get 1t Is
one of the problems Of every mans life

less extent dominated his course until now
he Is in easy circumstances.
Il am persuaded that my friend had
studied systems Of economics and finances
no little in quest of the rule which would
make safe foundation for the building of
fortune. The rule he found is as easy as
1t Is simple. A laborer works for his money,
for instance, while capitalists money
works for him. Having this principle firm
ly fixed in his mind. he determined, al
though he was working for salary, to
make his modest income do certain

his money pay him 10 per cent. He had to
handle 1t. to be bothered with 1t, to be re-
sponsible for it., and why not exact trib-
ute Of 1t for hfs services? Accordingly he
consulted a banker who was his personal
friend and the friend of his father before
him. He sought the counsel of the banker.
He unfolded his plan. He gave the banker
notes drawn against himself for SO per

would be protested and his name would be
handed around among the bank clerks as a

these notes promptly and they were de-
posted to his credit. He worked this plan
for two years, and 1t became SO firmly fixed
in his system that to this day he Is his own

and laid the foundation for a successful
business career. 1t is a good plan, and as

MAKESBREAK
Prisoner Tries to Escape
 From Sentry

Quite a ripple of excitement among the soldiers and those residing in the neighborhood Of army headquarters, was caused yesterday morning by an unsuccessful attempt to escape on the part of Private McKiuty, who has been a prisoner for some time.
 Yesterday morning at 10 o'clock Me Kinty was being brought into the guard house by Private Shoemake, the sen- try, from the alley in thercar. The sentry and prisoner had just reached the passage way west of the guard house on Sixth avenue, when the pris- oner made dash for liberty. Shoe make quickly threw his rifle Co his shoulder and fired at the fleeing man. but his aim was spoiled by several lines full of newly washed clothes, and the shot failed to take effect. Mchinty made fast time north on the railroad track, with the guard in full pursuit The chase would have been long one and might have proved fruitless, had it not been for Private Page, who, in re- turning from the target range, ran head on into the running prisoner. Page at once took in the situation and held MeEinty at the point of his rifle till the arrival of the guard.

He operated on them and l was not bothered with any more until last fall, when one made it's appearance. l came Co the conclusion that my blood was out of order, and that the kidneys were not performing their functions right, and got Q box of Deans Kidney Pills, taking them as directed, and they did all that was claimed for them.
