few days ago from ore from a mine
twenty miles south of Lovelock. The
mine from which the ore used to make
this bar was taken, was discovered
by Professor G. Fl. Gage, a well

having paid $500 for them and the
profits of the first two nights ex-

the purchase money. 1t looks as if
Ross and "Curley'' win make a small

have a chance to see them in the

Prof. Redard has been using blue
light as an anesthetic for three years.
lnsensibility is produced merely by
the action of the blue light on the
nervous center of vision, reacting on
the other nervous centers. All the
experiments by the Geneva professor
go to show that blue has a. decided
anesthetic action. A great number OF
patients were made; unconscious by
the use of it. Red, yellow and other
ray rays s. did not shoW any result, while
green and violet lights; being most
nearly related to blue light; were
found to be efficient also, though to
smaller degree.
very simple apparatus is required
for this blue-light process, a sixteen
candle-power incandescent lamp,
nickel-plated reflector and a blue veil
being sufficient. The lamp is fitted
with a blue bulb and placed about six
inches from the eyes, this being the
point of the conveyance of the light
rays, while the head Of the patient,
as we'll as the bulb is covered with
the veil. Two or three minutes ac-
ton is sufficient to allow of the ex-
traction Of a tooth without any pain.

Conservators of Peace.

The G.. A. r., as an organization,
has been one Of the greatest conserv-
ators Of peace because it's members
realize more fully than any one else
could the cost of war both in blood
and treasure. The wounds and dis
ease contracted by them in the civil
war are ever present reminders of its
cost: They would nave been ready
to have sacrificed much before engag-
ing in such another struggle.
They have been the leaders of all
movements tending to higher patriot
ism and loyal service to their country.
They have fostered and encouraged
every effort looking to more loyal cit
izenship. They have taught the world
lesson in fraternity extending not
only to their own members, but
to the men Of the south who
fought against them, and they have
done and are doing more to reunite
the two sections of our country as
patriotic American citizens than any
other agency or society.

Music. and Blue Li&hts

Music boxes and blue light are two
of the latest things in the line OF an
esthetlcs. The~music boxes do not re-
duce pain or render the patients in
sensible, but, according to Prof. Red
ard of Geneva, they do take away cer-
tain i'll effects that often accompany
the use of anesthetics. It is a. we'll
known fact that external impressions
Feceived during the period of sonno-
ience have great bearing on the
dreafssas.- From. this Prof Redard con-
cefved the idea Of utilizing music It
was found that the music had ten
dency to take away thee disagreeable
excitation previous TO the use of the
chloroform Or other anesthetic. The
awakening was also found to be free
from excitement. There was no nausea
and any other unpleasant effects were
either avoided Or disappeared rapidly.

TRAINER FOUGHT FOR LIFE.
Wrestling Bout With Lion Turns to
Grim Reality.

Grim Reality. .
AN athlete named Rey, connected
with the Bostock animal show, had a
this week, says a Paris special to the
Kansas City Journal. He was en-
gagged in putting the wrestling lion,
Brutus, through his daily practice,
when the brute unexpectedly fastened
it's teeth in his jacket. The trainer
stopped wrestling and tried to disen~
gage himself by Withdrawing from the
jacket and leaving it in the lions pos
session.
But he was unable to do this, and
Brutus, Withouet becoming actually
savage, warmed to the encounter and
began to tear the trainer about the
shoulders and sides. Although bleed
ing freely from fifty wounds, Bey, who
is a powerful, athletic young fellow,
kept his head, and, realizing that he
was at the mercy of the brute 1t he
fell, kept him off as best he could.
BY this time Mr.. Bostock and his
assistants had gathered around the
cage trying to rescue the trainer and
watched with apprehension the realis-
tic combat between the man and the
lion. The wrestling bout, which had
commenced in the usual playful man.
ner, had developed into a grim con-
test, in which one of the combatants
was fighting for his life, and for fully
two minutes his fate seemed sealed.
Rey kept up the unequal contest, but
further difficulty in the way of his
rescue was the fact that in cage
communicating with that of Brutus a
companion lion was making desperate
efforts to force an entry through a
half open door.
At last Brutus was lassooed by Mr..
Bostock and dragged into the adioin-
ing cage. After Rey had been ban
daged in the Hippodrome infirmary he
was taken to the Rothschild hospital,
where the doctors said if blood poison
ing did not set in, they hoped to save
him.
