AMERICAN ADVANCE IN MEDICAL SCIENCE Stories of Early Struggles of
 the Doctors IS ONLY 100 YEARS OLD Advances in Future VIII Be Along Line of General Prevention of
 Disease by Hygiene, sanita-
 ton and lnocuIatIon.
IS ONLY 100 YEARS OLD
BY FREDERIC HAsKIN.

There Is hardly any other phase of American development as remarkable as the advance our physicians are making in the treatment of human ills. Consid ering that the knowledge and successful methods of the present day would have seemed absurd in the time of our grand fathers, it may not be too optimistic to expect medical science to eventually erad- icate all causes of death except accident and old age.
 Old physicians, speaking cynically one to another, used to say: We treat a disease of which we know little by put ting Into a stomach of which we know less, remedy of which we know noth- ing." Roughly stated that was what empiricism meant. With limited knowl- edge of chemistry. physics and biology, a meagre knowledge of the mechanism and functions of the various parts of the body, and almost no knowledge Of the causes of many fatal diseases, doctors sailed by dead reckoning. Preventive measures were speculative and in treat ing many disease now easily conquer able the best practitioners grouped in the dark.
 Mark Twain's Notes of an Old Phy- slcian,' containing excerpts from the diary of practitioner who bled and starved and poulticed the life out of patients refusing them air when they needed It, and water when they were perishing of fever, and who solemnly set down at the end of the history of each case, mot withstanding this careful treatment the patient died" has afforded mlrth to many layman, but to the modern American physician it is not much more humorous than the real diary of a real physician of that day would be- so numerous and so important have been recent discov- cries.

Street Car Struck Negro.


 This afternoon about o'clock Dan Paul. den, negro living on the King place. near Burnsville, had narrow escape from death in a collision with an electric car on Water street, near Lawrence Nothing but the seeming disposition of providence. which takes care of fools, children and drunken people, saved him from imme- diate death. The negro was drunk and was driving along the street car track on Water street. The Union street car, in charge of Motorman Suttles and Con- ductor Whitman, was coming down the street in the same direction. The car was running slowly and the motorman rang the bell for the crossing, but the negro, obliv- ious to the approach of the car. turned his mule straight across rne track. Just as the animal got over the collision oc- cured The impact was hard and the negro was thrown fortunately to the bot tom of the wagon. Two wheels and part of the body of the wagon were demol- ished, and when the crowd hurried to the negro he was found pulseless to all intent He soon revived, however, and but for a few bruises on the head appeared to be all right in g. short while. The street car crew were arrested as a matter of form, but eye witnesses testify that the old negro was entirely to blame.

BUYERS STAYING

(By Frank ]. Graft


The local market fails to show any

being Offered continually without bids

the market entirely. letting stock drift
TO lower levels of their own accord.
Shattnck is being bought up at $I2
20 Sl3, with none offered at present
figures. Local copper stocks are get
ting cheaper every day. Dem sold
as low as S3.25. American and War
rem are both begging. Greene Cana
nea is on the road to $500 according
20 many, but it is a splendid pur-
chase at present figures. DEM is
ridicuiously cheap and those who buy
at these figures and hold will make
good money. The Santa Fe Copper
Company has closed down all its op-
eratiens as they are unable to make
copper at a profit at Is. We are in
the market for a few shares of Cana
nea-Duluth at $3.50 to $2.75. un-
derstand that the Greene Consolidated
Copper Company stockholders are to
bold meeting tomorrow at New York
and there will be considerable in
qu1ry made regarding the nonLpay-
ment OF dividend on the Greene Con-
solidated stock to holders of this
stock. There Is still about per cent
of the old Greene Consolidated stock
Greene Cananea and they are some
what wondering why they have not
received dividend.
Boston wires: The situation is I'M
changed. Greene Cananea is still COM
ing out and a low price of seven was
made. This stock was a great spec
ulative favorite all through the west
and the liquidation IS coming from
all directions, forced out by losses in
other stocks and inability to hold
on longer. Rio Tinto cut its dividend
and this weakened the market for
our coppers- News from J. d. Ryan

the road to recovery. AmaIgamated
held firmly and was strong all the
time, even when il looked weak. It is
impossible to buy at the low points.
Isle Royal, Atlantic and Shannon are
three low priced stocks which are
being accumulated around these
prices.
New York wires: The market to-
day was irregular and dun at the
opening but after announcement Of
regular Northern Pacific dividend the
stocks sold Off In the afternoon
there was a good deal of profit taking
and prices sold off. The trading to-
day was mostly professional and
there was a total absence of COM

UNITED VERDE IS
TRIMMING CLOSE
Reduces Output By Half and
Has Trouble Getting Low
Priced Fuel

Boston.-Senator VIM. A. Clark
United Verde Copper Co is producing
less than 20,000,00O pounds of copper
year as curtailment of approximate
ly so per cent is being enforced at the
property and a number of men laid
off. The company produced last
year, according to its return to the
Arizona mining authorities. 3S.S22, 265
pounds of copper.
The reduction in output is being
carried out for the most part on &C
count of the condition OF the copper
market: but inability TO secure fuel
in sufficient quantities is also respon-
sible to a considerable extent
Connelsville coke which is obtain
able at e. Paso, Texas, at slightly bet
ter than 50 ton costs more than SIS
per ton at the United Verde. Colo
RADIO fuel. which is being used TO
some extent. costs $11 a ton. but the
quality is inferior to that of eastern
coke. 100 tons of the latter being
equal to 120 tons of the western
product
The United Verde Co. is paying its
few stockholders today the regular
monthly dividend of 70 cents a share
but unless there is a lettering in the
copper situation before the first of
November it is likely that that pay
ment win be passed entirely.

New York market sold off on the an

dividend, which was unchanged. A
declining tendency tendency prevail
ed on the close and the market will
probably open lower in the morning
when We believe purchases Tor a turn
are in order. Liquidation continues in
coppers and fractionally lower prices
are being made daily. Greene Cana
nea comes out on every firm spot and
pressure is too great for the market
to absorb offerings. It looks attrac-
tive at $500. There is no explana-
ton offered as yet for the continued
weakness other than forced liqu.da-
ton A slightly weaker tone in Sup

On the whole the copper shares do
not show any signs of improving but
the market IS in a condition to stand a
4gnnd rally and we -kelieYe in taking
advantage OF these lo~pQces to get
some bargain stocks. The local curb
situation is unchanged. ANY sales
made must be made at a sacrifice as

Today's market shows very little
change from what We have had for
the past week. Stocks are still quiet
and lifeless and inclined toward weak
ness. The big markets in New York
and Boston show no improvement and
until they do, we cannot expect very
much from the curbs. DEM and
Greene Cananea show further weak
ness today and are quoted at 1915 and
500 respectively at the close. Shat
tuck is weak and unchanged. Sup
erior G. Pittsburg is holding well with
a fair demand for the stock in small
lots. Wolverine & Arizona is firm
around $500 with very little being Of
fered. Butte & Arizona is nearing the
objective point in the development
with a most encouraging showing and
We look for something doing in this
stock within the next thirty days.

Oct. S.-The markets were
stationary again today. there
being only slight deviations
from the prices OF yesterday.
Trading continues very light
and tie movements off traders
in the big centers are of the
most reluctant character. Com
mittments of any sized proper
lions are a very scarce feature
so that 1t is extremely difficult
to figure even as to what the
best informed expect Of the i'm
mediate future. The low ebb
to which stocks have fallen
however. is an exceptionally
rare one and the best issues,
in our opinion, should be pick
