BARS HIGH ASCENT.
What Il ID That Kills Aeronauts at
Lofty Attitudes.
wAglash Experimenters Discover
That II IL the Gas from the Dali
loon and Not RariAed Air
which IL to BE Feared.

The greatly increased height
reached in balloon ascensions may, ac-
cording to DR.. Knott, result in in
teresting physiological experiments.
DR.. Knott and Percival Spencer, both
well-known aeronauts, with third
passenger, recently made an ascent of
11,70o feet. In an Interview on his
experience the doctor said:
In healthy persons the pulse beats
four times for one respiration and
that rltio is supposed never to vary.
After we had reached a height of H.
900 feet, we found the pulsa ton to be
one for each respiration. There was
also a certain fiabbiness of the heart
movements. We were then getting
nauseating doses of gas from the
mouth of the balloon, the gas decreas-
ing rapidly, owing to the decreased at
mospheric pressure at the great
height.
Il cannot speak definitely until the
experiments are complete, but l be-
lieve that nausea, intoxication, and
the ultimate death of aeronauts at ex-
traordinary heights are due to the eff
fects of gas, and not to atmospheric
conditions. Never, so far as 1 know,
has post-mortem shown that man
died from decreased atmospheric con-
ditions.
"Of course decreased pressure hae
certain effects, but / think death is al
WayE due in these cases tn DaA
man may suffer pain, but so long ~
he is not stupefied he is not incapable.
If could construct balloon from
which gas would not descend ON the
aeronauts, much greater heights could
probably be reached than the record,
which is now about six miles. There
was not the slightest change in our
physical condition until the gas made
itself felt"

NERVE WINS PROMOTION.
Clerk In Hotel Attracts Attention. of
Cotton King by His Remarkable
Se1f-POssessiOm,

Daniel Sully, the cotton king, has .,
new secretary, and because he has q
new secretary the Waldorf-Astoria
has to engage new information clerk
to take the place of William A. Nc
Cusker, whom Mr.. SuHy won from the,
hotel proprietors. For eight years
McCusker had served ct the Informs
tion desk, meeting AL corners. II
might be . woman who wanted to
know good dressmaker, or q msn
from LleweElyn, N. j., who desired to
learn where he could buy the largest
gold brick. McCusker possessed q won
derful control over his nerves, and
never became ratified. Mr.. Sully mo-
ticed these traits in the young man,
and the more he saw of him the bet
ter he liked his imperviousness to ex-
citement.
The climax came when . woman in
quired of the clerk II he knew how to
spell "ptomaine" and "neurasthenia."
Without turning hair the informa-
tion clerk wrote the words for her on
a card, and then sent boy to put .
dictionary on the table in the writing
room.
That settled it, and within the cnsu-
ing two minutes the cotton king had
a new private secretary and the hotel
had been given due notice
of the clerks intention to leave,

COAST DEFENSE SYSTEM.
Elaborate Scheme Perfected by the
Omcers of the Army and
the Navy.

Keen interest is displayed by army
and navy officers in the elaborate
scheme for the defense of the Atlantic,
Pacific, great lakes and gulf coasts of
the United States, plans for which
have been completed by the naval gen.
eral board. This is considered the
most elaborate system of our coast
defense ever drawn up and approx
mates an impregnable defense of the
entire coast line of the United States
and its foreign possessions.
Acting Secretary Darling bas signed
the instructions to the commandants
of the 10 naval districts into which the
country has been divided regarding
the establishment of a permanent
basis of the naval patrol. The duty
Of the patrol will be to secure and
forward information and to commune
cate with ships at sea- The treasury,
war and agricultural departments will
cooperate with the navy in this work.
The general lines of the coast signal
service put in operation during the
war with Spain will be followed.
Special navar patrol stations, life
saving stations, lighthouses and light
ships, army signal stations, coast sta
lions Of the weather bureau and auxil-
larry scouting, lookout or patrol ships,
all will be called ON to participate in
the scheme, and at appropriate sta
lions telegraph, telephone. cable and
wireless means of communication will
be provided and kept constantly in
working condition. The naval militia
to a large extent will be called on to
make up the naval patrol crews.
According to orders issued, putting
the scheme into effect, should war
break out the commanders in chief
afioat will be furnished a list of the
naval patrol stations within the limits
of their command and also the private
signal to be used in communicating
with them. Until this signal shall have
been given the naval patrol stations
are forbidden to give any informa-
ton to ships.

PUTS NECK OUT OF JOINT.
cideMt while She Ii COmbin0
Her Hair.

Standing before a mirror combing
her hair, Miss Gussie Mass, a stenog-
rapher, of Omaha. Neb., the other
morning gave her head toss and dis
located her neck. She thought little
of the accident at the time, and went
down to her work. She carried her
head on one side, and laughingly told
her employers that she had "crick in
her neck"
By and by she began to suffer con-
siderable pain, and, becoming alarmed,
summoned DR.. Matthews. The latter
called other surgeons in consultation.
Miss Mass was taken home, and there
two surgeons, with the assistance of
two other strong men, succeeded in
stretching the ligaments of the neck
sufficiently to allow the cervical YER
tebrae to slip back into place.
The surgeons say that Miss Mass
narrowly escaped death, for had the
disloca:ioB occurred one joint lower
it would have severed the spinal cord.
