SPOTTED BY HIGH PRESSURE.
A Medical Explanation of the Newes

- fSNISal INPIdIldIiOu OT he INCWGSI
Form of Caisson Disease.
New York Sun: Much interest is shown
at Gouverneur hospital in the latest form
of caisson disease developed among the
workmen in the new Manhattan bridge
caisson at the foot Of Pike street. Frank
Aes, the sick man in the case, was
brought to the hospital from the c~aisson,
not only suffering severe pains, but also
spotted all over with large blackish
patches. After he had been in the hospi-
tai a few days the spots entirely disap-
peared.
The hospital physicians account for this
strange development in this way: When
the men are put under pressure in the
caisson the blood is driven entirely away
from the surface of the body and brain
back to the regions of the heart. The ar
teries and veins become relaxed and col
lapse. AT the same time a quantity of
air Is forced through the skin and finds
! lodgment in the tissues Of the flesh itself.
When the men are taken from the cais-
son, unless they are decompressed very
slowly, the system is unable to return
to it's normal condition before the outer
air Is reached. When this is the case,
the blood still remaining in the interior of
the body rushes to the surface and tears
along the veins with a fierce rush.
The relaxed veins are subjected to a
! SoudCll 81 LII III III SOllle CdSGS give way
causing the blood to come to the surface
of the body in great clots, very much like
blood blisters. TIL rush of blood Is ren.
dered the more dangerous by the effort
Of the imprisoned air to get free at the
same time. This has a tendency to pull,
the veins and arteries out of place, caus
ing additional strain. Sometimes a blood
vessel will burst in the ear from this
cause, forming a clot of blood just inside
the ear drum. This always results ir
deafness, and many of the workers il
caissons become permanently deaf.
The region that seems to be especially
subject to such attacks Is the abdomen
and chest. 1t is here tina the sandhogs
as the men who work in the caissons arr
called, suffer the worst pain. They ar
also attacked in the legs and arms, bu
these are the forms of the disease so com
= mon and called by the men themselve,
the bends, because of the tendency on,
has to double up when attacked by thes
cramps. Bleeding at the nose, ~fainting
observation-disclosures are the usual symptoms
but sometimes bleeding will begin at tn
eyes. Physicians say that half an hour
at least, should be taken in decompress
ing the men. It that Is done, they say
there would be fewer cases Of the disease
So many men nave been taken from tn
Manhattan bridge caisson suffering fror
~caisson disease that, the engineers are hay
ing trouble in getting enough men to d
the work.

from the machine, his voice now ring

The farmer twisted around and

BOY sOMNAMBULlST'S FEAT.
With Arms lncumbered He Climbs
Tall Palm in Hawaii,

San Francisco Chronicle: A peculiar
,ase of somnambulism occurred lately
near Hanalei, on the Island Of Kauai,
Hawaii. William Williams, aged Il
years, disappeared from his home one
morning early. When he did not return
tor breakfast, nor later in the forenoon,
his parents became anxious, and search
was made for him. After some time a
native found him lying in the shadow
IF a great boulder in a place very diff
fcult of access.
When the native saw him he gave a
shout. partly to announce to the other
searchers that the boy was found and
partly to awaken the boy, who seemed
last asleep. The shout woke the boy
suddenly, and seeing the natives black
eyes staring at him, as he afterward
explained, he thought a wild pig, num-
pers of which are found in the region,
was about to attack him.
To escap the boy climbed a tall CO.
:oanut tree growing a hundred yards
away, and as he did not respond nor
come down when called to, the native
climbed up after him, but was kept at
bay by the boy with a 12-inch knife.
Finally his father came and spoke to
him and then he came down, still in a
iaZed condition., nor did he fully re-
cover consciousness until he had been
taken home M put to bed.
He then had but avery dim conscious
ness of his experience. All the circurn-
stances indicate hat he had risen from
bed early in the morning, put on his
working clothes, taken three books
which had been presented to him under
bis. arm, and a long knife used in cut
ting ferns, and started for the woods,
where he cut a quantity of ferns and
carried them to where he was found by
The native. When startled by the shout
Of the latter he still kept his books IN
Ter his arm and his knife in his hand,
and climbed the %cocoanut palm to the
very top, a distance Of forty or fifty
teet, a most difficult feat to perform,
even to the natives with their hands
Empty and their arms free.
The boy was never known to walk in
his sleep before, but is supposed to
aave been suffering from nervousness,
following an attack of dengue fever.
The boy had never climbed a %cocoanut
palm before,

Bismarcks' corns.

From the Argonaut: 1t Is related
that Pinnow, the faithful servant and
personal valet Of the late Prince Bis
marck. who recently died, once trod on
his masters equity foot. Instead of
swearing at him or even declaring he
was a clumsy fool, Bismarck, noticing
that Pinnow himself was frightened,
said: Consider yourself honored. No
other person, my dear Pinnow, not even
the kaiser himself, would have been
suffered to tread on my corns!"

Masonic Oath Not Above the Law,
Saws Newark Mason.

Whether a Masonic oath is above the
law is a question which members of
hat fraternity in this section are dis
cussing with some display of interest.
1t grew out of the action of Eugene Il.
Ashley, a lawyer and prominent Mason
of Glens Falls, N. Y, in refusing to
divulge under court order certain infor-
mation regarding the will of a friend on
the ground that he was bound to secrecy
by the oath of Masonry.
Mr.. Ashley was one of several attor-
neys for and a close friend of William
Moore. In his last will, made two days
before he died, last November, Mr..
Moore left an estate of about 500, 900,
divided practically between three mem
oefs of his family. In addition he left
to his grandson his interest i'll the
civilian Van Rensselaer, estate
which he believed to be worth about
$500, 200.
MI. Ashley was one of the executors
under Mr.. Moore's first will. H.. 7.
King, the executor named in the new
will, has been unable to get the slight
est trace of the Van Rensselaer, estate,
even as 10 its location.
When Mr.. Ashley before Surrogate
Jenkins refused to divuIge any of the
information given to him by Mr.. Moore,
III the ground that he would be violat-
ing the confidential relationship exist-
ng between counsel and client, and
chat he had taken the Masonic oath
not to divulge any of the facts concern
ing the Van Rensselaer, matter, the
Surrogate fined him 500.
A well-known Mason of this city
when seen this afternoon said that
there was nothing in the Masonic oath
which would give a Mason grounds to
hold it above the law. In the case in
question he stated that Ashley might
plead a privileged communication for
bis refusal to answer, but could not set
up a Masonic oath as a reason for re-
fusing to obey the orders of the courts.

RECENT ACHIEVEMENTS

CHICAGO, June N.-Ex-Secretary Root,
temporary chairman Of the republican ma
tional convention, discussed at considerable
length the achievements of the republican
party in the last four years in his address
on taking the chair today. He said:
1.-The responsibility Of government rests
upon the republican party. The complicated
machinery through which 100000 people
of the United States govern themselves
answers to no single will. The composite gov
eminent devised by the trainers of the Consti-
tuition to meet the conditions of national life
more than q century ago requires the will
ing cooperation of many minds, the combi-
nation Of many Independent factors. in
every forward step for the general welfare.
The President at Washington with his
cabinet, the ninety senators representing
forty-five sovereign states, the 1856 repre-
sentatives in Congress-are required to
reach concurrent action upon a multitude
of questions involving varied and conflict
ing interests and requiring investigation,
information, discussion and reconciliation
of views. From all our vast territory with
its varieties of climate and industry, from
all our great population active In produce
ton and commerce and social progress and
intellectual and moral life to degree never
before attained by any people-difficult
problems press upon the national govern
ment.
When the course Of the next administra-
ton is but half done the republican party
will have completed the first half century
of It's national life. OF the eleven admins
trations since the first election of Abraham
Lincoln. nine-covering a period of thirty
six years-have been under republican Prest-
dents. For the greater part of that time,
the majority in each House of Congress
has been republican.
History affords no parallel in any age
or country for the growth In national great
ness and power and honor the wide diff
fusion of the comforts of life, the uplifting
