Strengthened up and said:
Hes dead"
"Thats my belief" said the other
doctor, and then the physician. stin
clinging to hope, decided upon an in-
lection OF strychnlne. Almost imme-
diately after the injection n slight ex.
halation was observed.
ITS only the air leaving the lungs
after DEATH" said Dr. Sears, "but we'd
better hurry him TO the air lock"
Marlti was placed on n stretcher, but
&his frame was so big II was found i'm
possible to carry him through the mar
row hall into the street, so he was
passed out through a window. It took
half dozen men 10 do the work. The
ambulance was hurried TO the tunnel.
and when Mariu had been taken into
the lock both doctors worked over him.
Additional injections were given, but
Sor more than fifteen minutes there
was no sign OF life.
Still the physicians persevered. and
at length another exhalatlon was de
tected There couldn't be second
one and after such n trip?" asked DR..
Sears I'm wonderment.
II don't think So" replied the tunnel
physician, and then, holding his fingers
on the mans pulse, he cried Hes

First there were infrequent little
gasps, and slowly the blue color began
to go from the mans body. Gradual
ly the breath came more evenly and
stronger until with great sigh his
breast rose and fell, slightly, but rcgu-
larry. DIR. Sears passed through the
air locks, and when he had recovered
from the effects Of the prolonged pres.
sure he insisted upon returning again
to examine the patient lie was there
about minute and had the satisfac-
tion Of seeing Mariti open his eyes.
Marii was able to sit up In bed
within three hours and shortly after
ward was chatting at his detention In
the hospital.

GAS FROM CORNCOBS
OUT IN NEBRASKA

eatrice Neb, July 16-A commercial
grade of illuminating gas made from
cornstalks. corncobs, hay and other veg
etable matter is being psed in Beatrice
for fuel and lights and has superseded
coal gas The cost OF the new gas Is sl.19
per thousand. the lowestprice at which
gas is soldw In any city In Nebraska. In
quality It is a good as coal of oil gas.
John ID. Rockefeller is said to be back
Of the company which is furnishing the
gas. and the franchise for the plant Is
in the name OF the Rev. Charles Eaton
OF Cleveland Rockefeller's pastor. The
company has completed 10000 plant
here. il Is the first plant I'm the world
In which gas Is produced in this man
ner.
The vegetable matter is placed In large
retorts and roasted until the water Is
forced out. This water is then turned In
10 steam and the gases eliminated are
very combuStible and perfect substitute
for ordinary coal gas. A year agp Mr..
Eaton applied for the franchise for es-
tablishing gas plant, and Is was voted
to him. The plant which has Just been
finished Is the result. Absolutely moth
ing Is used I'm manufacturing the gas ex-
cept farm refuse.
Because OF the cheapnes or the raw
material the gas can b. manufactured
very cheaply and sold at much lower rate
than oac coal gas.
