CONSUMPTION CURE.
Russian Mining Engineer Has Rec
ord Of Caaslsg Some Very
Remarkable Discoveries.

Moscow, Nov. 24.-Remarkable
cures of consumption have recently
been effected in Russia by Kisel
Zagoranski, formerly mining en-
gineer, and now specially licensed
by the Russian medical department
to practice medicine In cases of tn.
berculosis. Zagoranski has given
the Associated Press an account OF
the origin of his consumption cure,
which It appears that thirty years
ago he was sent to Siberia to super.
intend extensive mining works.
The medical facilities there were
extremely limited and Zagoranski
himself attended to the medical
wants of the workmen to the best OF
his ability. An old foreman of the
mine, however, always took care OF
the tuberculosis cases and almost
invariably cured them. The fore
man died come years ago, confding
his tuberculosis specific to Zagor-
anski, who continued to use 1t.
Hearing a rumor that John D.
Rockefeller, of the United States,
had offered an immense prize for
the discovery of a consumption
cure, he consulted American Con-
sui Smith, who, with his brother,
w. E. Smith. began a Systematic OBJ
servation of the cases of several pa
TENTS, especially that of an English
lady, an acquaintance of the con-
sui, who had been given up by the
doctors. She submitted to Zagor-
anski's treatment, which wac given
under professional medical obser-
walton. This occurred last spring
and the cure appears to be per-
manent.
Zagoranski says that, go far as he
lie BILE to observe, the treatment does
not renew wasted lung tissues, but
arrests the disease. At whatever
stage of the disease the treatment
is begun, it kills the. tuberculosis
germ, leaving the system clean 30
that it may be built up by a careful
diet.
Zagoranski's treatment, accord
ing to Smith, consists merely in
the drinking of his specific in large
Quantities, together with life in the
open air and the observance of a
careful dietary.

A Mystined Crow.

During a piazza game OF pingpong
one of the balls was sent quite n dis
lance out over the lawn, where a crow
seized 1t and bore 1t Off In triumph. ev-
identity thinking 1t was an egg. After
much pecking, from all of which the
frolicsome little ball bounced away un-
broken, the crow had an excited con-
sultation with several of his fellows
and then deliberately carried the ball
to the top OF high tree and let 1t drop.
Again the assembly OF black feathered
experimenters gathered around In
amazement. Was there ever such q re-
markable egg7 1t had fallen from a
height that played havoc with their
eggs and their little ones as well and
yet survived intact! Then one after
another tramped on Il, cawing loudly
all the while.
At last, in sheer exhaustion and dis
gust, they all gave 1t up, few to the
top OF their favorite tree. and. stin
cawing loudly, watched one OF the
pingpong players come out from the
house and carry of this invincible egg
that had baffied their boldest attacks.
