North Pole in Danger.

The north pole will be approached,
during the coming open season, by
the scientific adventurers of five ma
tions. Baron Tolls expedition is re-
fitting at the mouth of the Lena
river, in Siberia. The Norwegian
party, under Capt. Amundson, which
will also attempt to locate the mag
netic pole, will sail from Christiania.
A Danish expedition now studying
Greenland will attempt to reach the
pole in May. The American venture
financed by Ziegler, under Fala in
stead of Baldwin, is the best
equipped, both in outfit and expert
ence. The French party sent for
scientific research by DR.. Chariot will
also make strenuous effort to indi,
cate the "farthest north by the tri.
color"

CZAR PLANS FOR DAUGHTER.
Scheme of Education in Preparation
So That Girl May De Fitted to
Reign I'm Event There Is No Son.

The Taglisch Rundschau of Berlin
reports the czar is seriously consid-
ering an alteration in the law of sue
cession, with a view to enabling his
eldest daughter to ascend the Russian
throne, failing n son. He has direct
ed several educational experts to
elaborate scheme of instruction,
with the object of preparing his
daughter for the duties of ruler.
This project inevitably will meet
with strong opposition, especially
from the disinherited granddukes.
1t is reported that the czar shortly
will make pilgrimage to the hermit
father, Serafin, at Sarafskaia, in the
province of Tambours, and that he
will be accompanied by the court and
the ministers. Sarafskaia is the
Lourdes of the Russian members of
the orthodox Greek church, and Fa-
ther Serafin is venerated as worker
of miracles. The czar's homage will
strengthen the belief of the common
people in the hermit's alleged super
natural powers. Afterwards the czar
will go to Rome and Vienna.

HE DENOUNCES DRUGS
Chicago Physician Says He Is Los
ing Faith in Use of Medicine.
DIR. l.. II. MnttIcr Tells Medical Society
That Proper Exercise, Baths, Etc,
DO More to Cure People Than
Knife or Prescriptions.

"The medical profession of to-day
places too much dependence upon the
knife and prescriptions. l am daily
losing confidence in drugs, but at the
same time l am winning confidence in
various forms of exercise, in baths,
electricity, massage and in the effect
of daily thought upon the general
health of patients" said DR.. L. IL. Mat
tier at the meeting of the Chicago
Medical society, the other night.
The declarations of DR.. Mattler fol-
lowed a paper upon medical gymnas-
tics read by DR.. w. NJ. Fitch, in which
it was claimed that a graduated sys-
TEN of gymnastics under the direction
of competent physician would work
wonders with the ills of many invalids.
The lecture was illustrated with a
clinical demonstration of the method
by a general discussion of the subject
by the 60 physicians present
"That gymnastics, out-of-door eXer-
else and high attitudes, all of which ex-
pand the lungs, are among the most
efficient of aids in the treatment of
pulmonary complaints has long been
an established fact" said DR.. Fitch.
"The same principles which make
these agencies effective for pull
monary complaints apply also to the
treatment of numerous other forms
of disease. | have found by long
practice that nervous diseases, some
forms of heart trouble and many
minor complaints can be absolutely
cured in a months time by medical
gymnastics, the treatments being
given at least daily. / consider that
the use of these gymnastics is one
of the most effective forms of blood
less surgery known to medical sci
ence to-day
"The growth of osteopathy and the
constant increase of the physical cul-
ture schools are things for which the
medical profession itself has been
largely responsible" said DR.. A. N.
Caldwell Too long have we neglect
ed these movement systems and left
mechanical therapeutics to the lay
man, to superannuated pugilists and
worn-out athletes. 1t is high time
that we of the profession became
equipped with this, one of natures
most efficient agents for combating
disease"

REVENGE FOR EARLY CRUELTY
The Novel Defense orered by Ger
man Officer Charged with
Brutality.

Noncommissioned Officer Kisch, of
Berlin, who has been sent to prison for
a year and half for maltreating sol
diers, said he inflicted torments on the
recruits because he had been com
PEELED to suffer when he himself was n
recruit.
He boxed the ears of almost all the
recruits daily, prodded them in the
back, struck them in the face, used his
whip literally and amused himself be-
tween times by chasing the men un-
der beds, making them scramble un-
der five beds as often as so times in
succession. During gymnastic exer-
else he made them pick up filth from
the ground with their mouths, like
dogs. He also compelled recruits to
rub down each others bodies with a
scrubbing brush and sand. AT other
times the men had to fog each other.

GAINS SIGHT AFTER YEARS.
scotchmnn, Blind from Birth, Re-
covers Vision After Operation
Dnzed by What He Sees.

A most touching and pretty story
comes from the little Scotch village
Of Croft Head Bridge of Weir, where
man of 80 years, blind from his
birth, has been given sight by DR..
Maitland Ramsey, of the Glasgow
Ophthalmic institute. lie might
never have had the veil of darkness
removed had it not been for a student
On n vacation passing through the
village. Hearing of the case, he
made an examination and thought it
possible to give the man, whose name
is John Carruth, sight
He brought the case to the notice
Of the institution. Carruth was
taken there and operated upon. He
is now home again. with good sight.
In describing the sensations when
light first dawned upon him he said
the first face he saw was that of the
doctor. He was bewildered, but
thought he must be looking on a face
for the first time. Then he saw the
face of the nurse and knew she must
be woman, for her face was so pale
and smooth.
His first meeting under the altered
conditions with his mother was the
most pathetic incident of the recov-
cry. Lovely" was the word he used
when he gazed upon her face, and the
mothers joyous cry: "Eh, ladde, you
can see! you can see!" made the
hearts of those who heard it throb
in sympathy.

And of trowels inagsneral there arc

that will enable her to take her place
smong other progressive cities with
equal resources and prospects. A
business sentiment in the legislative
boards is one thing that is needed.
There is too much horse. play and anna
teur orstory. Bills and measures are
buffeted from one board to the other
until they become threadbare and
frayed at the edges, and after the leg
islators have tired playing with them
they are tabled or caused to disappear
in some equally effective manner.
Efforts have been made to fix some Of
the salaries of city Off cials who are to
be elected in November for several
weeks past, and the boards do not ap-
pear to know any more about what
they want or intend to have now than
they had then. There are matters
hanging up in. the boards that have
been there Tor months and bid fair to
stay there good many months more.
This is notthe way to transact public
business, and until new and modern
