Remarkable surnerv.

A Philadelphia dispatch to the New
York Herald says that the life of
Frank McIlhatton of that city was
saved by an exceedingly rare surgical
operation. only nine other cases be-
ing recorded.
The man was suffering from an
aneurism or dilation of the great ar.
terry, which extended three inches
about the base Of the breast bone and
was three and half inches wide. AS
result of the enlargement he had be-
come unable to swallow. had great
difficulty in breathing and suffered OK.
cruciating pains in the head. To save
his life II was necessary to reduce the
aneurism. and to do that the hospital
physicians had recourse TO what is
known as "Corridi's operation"
Meditation was able to talk TO
his wife five minutes after the
task OF the surgeons was completed,
and is reported as doing well,
The operation was performed by
Professor Il. w. Holmes, surgeon In
chief at tho Samaritan hospital. as
sisted by DR.. Dietrich, DR.. Snlvely and
DR.. Finck Many men prominent In
the profession were spectators.
Cocoaine was applied to the affected
portion of the aorta, the disease lying
in the transverse section. or arch. OF
that artery.
A hollow porcelain covered needle
was introduced into the aneurism, and
section of gold wire, Is feet long,
was passed through the hollow OF
that instrument and permitted 10 coil
in the diseased region. The wire
was then connected with a galvanic
battery, and the circuit was complet
ed by the placing OF n negative plate
upon the patients back. and a current
OF five milliamperes was turned on,
This was increased at regular inter
walls until II had attained a strength
Of eighty milliamperes and one hours
time had been consumed.
McIlhatten experienced immediate
relief. and the operation from a sur
gical standpoint was pronounced flaw
less. The application Of the electric
al current caused coagulatlon OF the
contents OF the aneurism. which there
by shrank, relieving the pressure
upon the lungs and larynx.

PoIonIum and RadIum.
independently

Several bits of history new to most
readers are brought out by Nine.
Curie. One is the share which she and
her husband had respectively in the
famous discovery OF polonlum and ra.
dium. As long ago as 1898 she had
found that salts Of therum emitted
substantially the same peculiar radla,
tions as uranium compounds. A Ger.
man, Schmidt, seems 10 have hit up.
on the fact simultaneously but. so far
as the Paris chemists were concerned,
Nine, Curle alone deserves the credit
OF that discovery. II was then noticed
that a large number of natural miner
ais, which were mixtures OF several
salts, but which contained either ra.
dium or thorium, were radioactive
At first IL was believed that one or the
other of these two metals were respon.
sible for the phenomenon. Nine.
Curie then undertook an experiment
which suggested different conclu.
sion.
One of these minerals was chalco-
lite. which is a compound OF phos-
phate of copper and uranium. In its
native state it was about twice as
powerful as uranium In emitting what
are known as Becquerel rays. Nine.
Curie manufactured an artificial chal.
colite. putting in the proper ingredi.
ents to insure genuineness, but this
product failed to exhibit the same ra.
dating power as the natural salt.
Thus was excited a suspicion that
some other element was present in
minute quantities in the latter. It
was at this point that NJ Curie was
tempted to join his wife in the hunt.
Two new elements were eliminated.
polonium, which resembles bismuth In
its chemical properties. and radium,
which is allied to barium. For the
second Of these part of the honor is
due to NJ. Bemont, who assisted In the
research.
What Nine. Curie says about the
cause OF the mysterious properties re.
Gently observed deserves TO be quoted
in full:

legations on radioactive substances
