Those of Ancient Times, If There We're
Any, Not Like To-Day.
The institution OF the hospital rs we
know it at the present day. with its
regulations and rules, did NOT exist in
the earliest times. nevertheless houses
or establishments for the reception Of
the sick can be traced back to the
early Jewish period. The earliest OF
these were known as Reth IIolem. or
houses OF the sick: such a Beth Ho-
lem was Beth-Saida. famous In the
New Testament Scriptures. This in
stltutlon was supported by voluntary
contributions as the word "Saidav-
charity II naturally expresses These
hospitals we're mostly situated round n
pool, the waters of which were consid-
cred to be efficacious for various dis
eases, especially gout and rheumatism.
According to the writer the attendants
in charge of these establishments were,
as we know from the Scriptures Gohn
V. 20, expected to helm the patients
into the water. This kind of insiltu-
tion may be looked upon as the foun-
ever, usually Of very primitive con-
struction, mostly consisting Of few
wooden huts.
In ancient Egypt hospitals were I'M
known, the sick being mostly attended
to in their own homes. or, in the case
Of the very poor. at the various tenn
pies in the city to which they belonged.
The Greeks, however. anpear to have
been better supplied with institutions
Of this kind. Plato says that there ex-
listed in various parts OF the country

served supplied with attendants who
waited upon the sick Ii Mas been as
serted that the ancients had no such
attendants, because no pagan would
wait upon a stranger in cases of sick
ness: this. however, seems to be con-
tradcted by the well-known case Of

Harrison Descended Frem Man who
Signed Kings Death Warrant.

Harrison Descended Frsm Man Who
Signed Kings Death Warrant.
One Of the powerful characters por-
trayed in the elder Dumas Twenty
Years After" was Colonel Harrison,
Puritan colonel whom Cromwell
loved ana trusted and who had charge
Of the execution Of King Charles ].
About the time that the great historl-
cal romancer was preparing the ma
teriaI for the "Three Muskateers' Sc
ries a Ineal descendant Of that stern
old R0undhead was elected President
Of the United States. He was Will
liam Henry Harrison, ninth President
Of the United States This Puritan
colonel had three great descendants
BENJAMIN Harrison. Of Virginia, one
Of the signers Of the Declaration Of
Independence; General William Hen
ry Harrison, ninth President Of the
United States, and General Benjamin
Harrison. twenty-thlrd President Of
the United States.
To Dumas's vivid fancy, the story
Of this Puritan officer suggested the
elements essential for the creation Of
a great hero Of romance. 1t was n
story Of bravery. firmness and moral
integrity and purity; a story that con-
talned as thrilling a narration Of BRAY
cry upon the field Of battle as ever
has been told by any soldier; story
that spoke Of an absolute incorruptl-
f.f1ft., .,,I 1nr~osfcr 20 oonsrfctfou and
nrmness OF the same fibre that
showed in Cromwell himself. Added
to this there was the tragic expert
ence that fell TO Colonel Harrison,
who was IN command Of the troops
upon the day when King Charles
knelt to the block. and who himself
went unainchingly to deaell UPON The
glbbet.
Before the Restoration Harrison be-
came a major-general His death Is
told Of in the following entry made by
Samuel Pepys in his diary under date
OF October 13, 1860: Il went out to
Charing Cross to see sIajor-General
Harrison hanged drawn and quar-
tered, which was done there. he look
ing as cheerful as any man could do
in that condition. Tie was presently
cat down and his head and heart
shown to the people. at which there
was great shouts OF joy. 1t is said
that he was sure to come shortly al
the right hand Of Christ TO judge
them that now had judged him; and
that his wife do expect his coming
again. Thus It was my chance to see
the King beheaded at Whitehall, and
to see the FIRST blood shed In revenge
for the King AT Charing Cross" Cen
eral Harrison bad been appointed by
| Cromwell 10 convey Charles l. from
Windsor to Whitehall for his trial, and
he signed the warrant for the behead
ing Of the King. When the King was
ia General Harrison's custody he wa:
struck with his soldierly appearance
ana be told him that he had been IN
formed that he (Jarrlsonl would as
sassinate him. Harrison answered
that Parliament would not strike the
King secretly. The descendants Of tn,
patriot came TO America soon aftel
the hanging at Charing Cross. but Tho
family did not come prominently int
view until just before the Revolution
arg War.

a novel idea IN electric heaters for
liquids has been patented by a Cana
dian. 1t consists substantially OF a
metallic receptacle, having an cleo
trode passing through but insulated
from the wall thereof and near the
bottom. one of the conducting wires
is secured to this pole, while the other
is grounded upon the metallic wall.
Owing to the very high resistance of
water. and diffusion therein Of car
Donate or certain other liquids, 1t is
not practical to use them in the recep-
tacle in their natural or normal state,
and therefore the inventor decreases
the resistance by the salt of sodium
or like suitable substances. When the
current is turned on to the receptacle
containing the liquid. the latter is soon
heated to very high temperature,
and other vessels may be suspended
therein containing articles desired to
be heated.

VOTES ON WAGE SCALE
MUST Be BY HLOCA[S''
Indiana Miners Are Informed that
Mass Meetings May Be Held
for Discussion Only.
FOUR OFFICES UNTITLED

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, March 11.-At the
morning session of the convention of the
comprising the bituminous field of Indiana
the question was brought forward of the
effect of mass meetings called for next
Tuesday on the referendum vote on the In
dianapolis agreement. Some of the dele
gates told of information they had received
of a purpose to hold mass meetings which,
they thought, might be in violation of the
regular method for taking ballot Nation
al Board Member Purcell explained that
the ACCESSIBILITY of holding such meetings
was an open one, but that no action by a
mass meeting would be considered in the
count of votes at national headquarters. He
said mass meetings might be held for the
purpose of discussing the issue but that
the locals must vote in the regular manner
and that the vote of the locals only would
be counted by the tellers at Indianapolis
The result of the first ballot on officers
taken yesterday afternoon was announced
by the telers this morning. 1t showed that
one state executive board member, one
auditor, one delegate to the Indiana Fed
GRAFTON OF Labor and vice president were
yet TO be elected. Another ballot was then
taken.
After considerable debate the convention
voted down a motion TO amend the consti-
tuition to require new members to pay
their initiation fee of SIS within one day
after they begin work. The constitution
fixes a limit of two months in which the
fee Is to be paid The complaint was made
that new members were not men who
worked regularly as miners but who went
into the mines when not employed else
where and that there had been trouble col
lecting the fee.

PERU DELEGATES TO Be

Wabash County Republican Com

for Convention.
MUCH HEAT ENGENDERED

Special 70 the Indianapolis Journal.
WABASH, Ind, March 1.-THE Wabash
county Republican central committee met
here to-day and fixed March 26 as the date
for holding a primary election to name del
egates to the congressional convention.
This is the first time in thirty years pri-
mary has been called in Wabash county,
and considerable heat has been engendered
by the decision. The Lands committee
men supported the primary and the Steele
committeeman wanted a convention. 1t is
possible that contesting delegations may
be sent TO the congressional convention at
Peru on March %.
Nothing was done in the matter of NAM
ing State senatorial delegates but it is
understood these will be by the old meth
cd, the congressional fight alone being
made by primary. No attention paid
to apportioning the candidates for delegate
to election districts, as required by the
State committee rules, and this point
the contest will be based, if one is made.
