crobes. Following his own researches
Lister attended clinics given by Syme.
the foremost physician of the day.
In 1860, Lister was appointed profess
sor of surgery at the University Of
Glasgow. 1t was while acting as sur
geOn to the royal infantry that he made
the discovery which initiated the new
era In surgery. Before that time al
most all wounds, accidental and sur
gical alike, underwent process Of In
fammatlon and suppuratiOn, accom-
panied by much pain and loss Of health.
The most trivial operations were not
lnfrequently followed by death. Many
patients died rather than face the hor-
rors Of an operation. Eryslpelas to-
tanus and hospital gangrene were al
most constantly present In hospital
wards.
There was no knowledge Of the
causes Of these diseases. They were
considered to be constitutional. The
physician took no blame or response
blllty. Death was simply the victims
misfortune.
Such an appalling state Of affairs
acted on Lister and he decided to
solve the trouble, II possible. At about
this time Pasteur demonstrated the
fact of the existence Of the germ and
that putrefaction and decomposition
were caused by certain mIcro-organ-
isms that came from without Lister
applied this knowledge to the cause Of
wound diseases.
The great deductions which Lister
made were ~ that ''putrefactlon' In
wounds was caused by microbes, (2)
that these were introduced from the
outside, (3) that "putrefactlon" might
be prevented by keeping the wound
free from germs, ~ that this might
be effected by the employment Of some
substance (which would destroy the
microbe. krhe. antiseptic system was
founded on these principles. Starting,
then, with the idea Of destroying. by
an antiseptlc substance. the germs In
the wound, In everything coming In
contact with the wound, such as In
struments. and in Its surroundings,
Lister made his original tests with car
bolic acid-a fortunate selection, for It
Is still regarded a. one Of our best
sernicides
He gave his method thorough trial.
It proved successful. Now cases Of
gangrsne and the like rarely follow
operations Thousands of lives have
been saved by this one discovery. It
has revolutionized surgery.

From New York comes the interest
ing story that the Chinese crew Of an
incoming ocean liner mistook the Bar
tholdi statue Of Liberty for the god of
America and burned Joss sticks in
honor Of the deity. As the shades of
night fell and the great light in the
statue flashed out its greeting and
warning across the waters. the Chi
nese are said to have fallen to their
knees, believing the great and good
god was signaling appreciation and
blessings.

NEARLY CAUSED A RIOT.
Arrest Of Socialist Speaker at Spo-
kane, Wash.


kane, Wash.
One Of the widest demonstrations
ever Witnessed on the streets of Spo-
kane took place Saturday night about
10 o'clock, when a frenzied mob Of
over 1000 people surged about the en-
trance to the police station furiously
clamoring for the release Of Mrs. Ida
Crouch Hazlett, socialist orator, who
had been arrested only few minutes
before by Patrolman Thomas Lister,
under circumstances that tested the
officers nerve to the utmost. Mrs.
Hazlett was charged with violating
the city ordinance which prohibits per.
sons from obstructing sidewalks and
streets, although many socialists who
were present assert that she had a
permit authorizing her to lecture on
the streets.
Lister and the woman were followed
to the station by a bowling mob,
which increased in numbers as the pair
approached the station. Shortly after
they entered the door feeling ran SO
high that it looked for time as II the
mob was intent on storming the bias.
tile. Sergeant John Sullivan, with
squad of patrolmen, quelled the rising
riot and no violence was attempted,
although the rabble continued to cheer
their heroine and denounce the police
in smothered murmurings.
The crowd stood about the entrance
to the station and fire headquarters,
and was strung south on Howard street
as far as Front avenue and east and
west on that thoroughfare for over 80
yards. The patrol wagon and the fire
apparatus were called out in an effort
to dispense the rabble, but the excited
populace paid no heed. When Mrs.
Hazlett was finally released on fur
nishing a $25 bond, the mob went wild,
as, bareheaded and without d jacket,
she led triumphal procession up
Howard street to her quarters at the
Central lodging house, between River
side and Sprague avenues, on Howard
street.

SHOOTING Q ToIlOw Conulcs
1t may surprise the readers to know
that 1t is possible to pierce board
with a tallow candle fred from a gun.
The reason may be thus explained :
When a candle starts from the breech
of the gun Its motion Is gradually in
creased until 1t leaves the muzzle at a
high velocity. When 1t reaches the
board. every particle Of matter com
posing 1t is in a state Of intense veloci-
ty. and the particles Of matter COM
posing the board are in state Of rest.
As the density Of the candle. multiplied
by the velocity Of Its motion. Is great.
err than the density Of board at rest.
the greater force overcomes the weak
er. and the candle breaks through. You
will find many queer illustrations Of
that kind when you come to study the
laws of motion In your natural phlloso-
ply.
