ers, and so clever at making their way
out of all ordinary receptacles, that It
has been found necessary to place
them in these deep cans. where. under

On the Operating Tables.
The operating rooms Of the fund oc-
cupy several rooms joined together on
the top floor Of the building. Here you
may see mice every day stretched out
on the operating table undergoing va
rious treatment connected with cancer
research. II cannot be said that the
work Is particularly enjoyable; but so
intent are the scientists on the objccts
In view-the discovery OF the cause
and cure OF a terrible plague-that
they pursue their operations with a
methodical lack Of sentiment that even
the mice themselves could not fall TO
admire II they knew what 1t was
about.
The FIRST operation connected with
cancer work is TO implant in a healthy
mouse the living cells Of cancer. This
is usually done BY a hypodermic
needle. The mouse to be treated is
seized BY the back Of the neck. and.
with a swift movement. the expert
menter gives him an injection of can
Ger. It does not take very long after
the first injection for the cancer to de-
velop: and you see thousands OF mice
running about, each one Of which has
cancer more or less pronounced.
From time to time mice with cancer
are treated with certain fluids, taken
from the bodies of other inoculated
mice, and occasionally mice with can
Ger actually recover. At other times
certain mfoe are injected beforehand
with these fluids. and then. when they
are given the cancer injection. It has
been found that the disease win not
take root.
It is by the discovery Of some pro.
hibitive serum that the scientists hope
10 achieve success. AS soon as some
body fluid Is found which viii have the
same effect on cancer growth as anti
toxin has on diphtheria the mastery o;
cancer viii have proved an accom-
plIshed fact.

Harry Ray. a miner who has been
working In the vicinity of Animas
Forks for the past few months. was
arrested yesterday charged with the
larceny OF si2G.5O. He was bound
over to the district court in the sum
of $500. It seems that Ray had n
check for $55 cashed at Sherman a.
Worden's saloon at Animas Forks by
Mike Hooihan, the manager. and that
Hoolihan afterwards entrusted him
with the check and another to bring
to Henry Sherman In Sllverton. When
he came to town. instead of deliver
ing the checks, he cashed the one
bearing his own name, at Landry
Bros. saloon and got $50 on the other
from Berquist & johnson. His pro

checks was not appreciated and he
