SURGERY RENDERED PAINLESS
Wonders OF stovaiIne, New Local An
aesthetic, Demonstrated In
English Hospital.


London.-An operation performed
at the Seamen's Hospital at Green
wich by Prof. Jonnesco, dean Of the
University of Bucharest, demonstrate
ed a noteworthy development in the
application of the wonderful anaesthe.
tic stovaine.
Hitherto the drug had been confined
to operations below the waist, its de-
pressing influence upon the heart ex-
cluding its employment in operations
involving the upper part Of the body.
Now, however, 1t has been discovered
that this disadvantage can be over
come by employing strychnine in COM
bination with stovaine, and 1t was to
demonstrate this that Prof. Jonnesco,
in the presence of some forty London
surgeons operated to remove a mass
of tuberculous glands from a mans
neck.
He informed the surgeons that he
had used no general anaesthetic In
any operation at the Bucharest Hospi-
tai In eighteen months, having in that
period performed more than 700 opera
SAOAo VA NoLtOuS hAhuS uAuCA StoNothc
injections.
In the present case Prof. Jonnesco
inserted q hypodermic needle into the
spinal canal between two of the verte-
brae at the base Of the neck and in
jected three centigrammes OF stovaine
and five centigrammes Of sulphate Of
strychnine dissolved in water. After
a minute the patient was placed on
the operating table and his head and
shoulders were lowered so that the
numbing fluid might spread upward.
Two. minutes later the operation
was carried out in the ordinary man
ner. No chloroform or other general
anaesthetic was used. The patient
was perfectly conscious throughout
and answered questions Of the sur
geons nationally.
do you feel any pain?" asked one.
mo-" replied the man cheerfully.
Are you quite comfortable?" he
was asked.
"Yes, thank you" he replied.
There was something uncanny to
the onlookers to see the patients un-
concerned manner and hear him talk
while there was gaping wound in
his neck three inches long. After the
bandages had been fixed the man got
off the table and walked to the next
room, where a stretcher was waiting
to take him to a ward.

DIGS FOR RABBITS; GETS FOX.
Rockville Farmer Makes an Unexpeot.
ed Bag While Hunting.


Middletown, N. Y.-The last snow
storm in this section was responsible
for the greatest slaughter of rabbits
ever known SO early in the season In
Orange and Sullivan Counties. It Is
estimated that over 1000 rabbits were
killed in these counties in two days.
Two hunters from this city shot
twenty-five rabbits within two hours,
and another man got eight rabbits and
a fox without using either gun or dog.
John Dorgan, an aged resident of
Rockville, who has never shot a gun
In his life, started out to get rabbit
for dinner. He carried a pick and
shovel with the idea Of tracking a rab-
bit to hole In the ground and digging
1t out. He succeeded in finding rab-
bit tracks and traced them to a hole.
After digging for half an hour he came
upon a red fox, which he killed with
a blow with the pick. Certain that
there was also a rabbit in the hole he
kept on digging. and finally discov-
cred eight of the furry animals tightly
jammed In the hole.

London.-Adelina Patti recently
celebrated the fiftieth anniversary Of
her debut as an operate singer at the
New York Academy Of Music. when
she appeared as Lucia. She was then
under II, but had made public ap-
pearance on the concert platform nine
years before.
In the year of PATHS operate de-
but Strakosch paid her 800 a week.
At her first operate appearance In
London in 1861 she received $3.50 a
month. Previous to her first marriage
in 1869 her earnings never exceeded
$500 a night, but later, when Nine.
Nilsson was engaged for $1,000 Patti
got $1,000.
Although these prices cut a small
figure in comparison with those the
song birds receive at the Metropolitan
and Manhattan, 1t is calculated that
PATHS voice has earned her about
$4,000 900.

Cost Of PIoughins and Seeding Wheat
Is 81 Cents an Acre.
Oberlin, Kan.--William Jackson,
farmer, who has been using a ninety
horse power farm motor in his farm
ing operations. recently finished plow-
ing and seeding a thousand acres of
wheat. He used four-cylinder mo-
tor, and it required 2,107 gallons of
gasoline, which cost S266.84. OF lubri-
eating oil he used about 800 worth,
making total cost for gasoline and
lubricating oil of $356.S4.
The expenses for men, their board
and other incidental expenses were
$780, which brought the total cost Of
plowing, packing and seeding a thou
sand acres up to $606.s4, or less than
61 cents an acre for the entire opera
tion of seeding the farm.
This same man has the reputation
of always producing wheat even in the
dry years. He gets his wheat in be-
fore Nov. in the very best possible
shape and in soil that has been care
fully cared for and packed in such a
way that it will hold the moisture.
The expenses for doing the same work
with teams would have been three or
four times that incurred with the mo-
tor and gasoline engine.
Most of the land that has been
farmed by Jackson cost him $40 an
acre a few years ago, and he has al.
ways had a crop Of some kind, and
In most years his wheat has yielded
more than $40 an acre.

tains of Hawaii by escaping from pris-
on two days before he was to have
been hanged, Fujihe-a, Japanese
convicted Of having murdered one Of
his countrymen, has been captured.
His story reads like a romance: Ten
thousand dollars was the price Of his
liberty. This amount was raised by
his friends with infinite work, owing
to the poverty Of the class Of people
to which he belonged, and paid. so he
alleges, to Charles Moore, at that time
jailer Of Hilo prison. where Fujihara
was confined. For $4,000, Moore be-
trayed his trust and allowed his
charge to escape. That was eight
years ago.
Assisted by his friends, Fujihara
made his way to the mountains and
has since lived like some wild ami.
NAL, feeding on the wild berries, fruit,
and yams that grew on the mountain
side. Only once or twice in all the
time since his escape from prison has
he seen a human being. and then for
fear he hid himself among the rocks.
In the meantime, he was almost for
gotten. Government officials changed
and many who remembered the trial
passed away. The Judge who SEN
fenced him is one Of these; so is
Charles Moore, who gave him his re-
lease. But there were some who had
not forgotten Fujihara, although they
thought that he had gotten away in a
sailing vessel to Japan. One Of those
of long memory was Deputy Sheriff
Overend of Hilo. Overend learned
that a man was hiding in the noun
tains and went after him. He found
Fujihara out picking berries for his
breakfast, and now his fate is in the
hands of Gov. Frear of Hawaii.
The eight years of liberty have been
the best of life Fuijhara has ever
known. When he was tried for the
murder of his countryman he was
stopped and sickly: now he is of fine
physique and a picture of health.
There are those who say that Full
hara did not have fair chance for his
life at his trial. He did not have an
interpreter. Ignorant, as he and his
friends were, they did not understand
that he was entitled to rights under
the laws of the American government.
and he made no effort to disprove the
charge. He was defended by a green"
boy-lawyer appointed by the court, as
Fujihara had no money to pay for a
lawyer.
Fujihara says that he did not intend
to kill his victim. He had a gun in
his hand. The ramrod was in the gun
and he had no intention of using 1t.
He had a quarrel, and in the scrim.
mage the gun was discharged. the
