absolutely from any discussion Of it
outside of their little circle. The
practical demonstration of the new
method OF internal illumination
came as a surpri-e therefore to the
young students of the clinic, who
were loud in their praise of the
discovery.
Experiments were also made on
a dog and a rabbit, which were trea-

Washington, Feb. 24.-Secreta-
ry Hay has received information
that Japan bas negotiated a treaty
with Corea, whereby she guaran-
'ees the independence and integrity
of Corea.

of the treaty as a declaration by Ja-
