to the law, would have regarded it as a
direction to find for the plaintiff if
they found the facts of possession at
the time by the plaintiff, going
upon the land by the defendant in spite
OF such possession and a lapse from
or its predecessor to the time of such
entry of a period of more than ten
years.
On the petition for rehearing plain
tiffs' attorney argued in tins court,
In support of the instruction, that it
is the law that a person who has ac-
quired title by deed may not lawfully
enter upon the land if it is at the time
in the possession of another who has
had possession for however short a
period, less than ten years, and who
has no other claim of title, unless he,
the grantee, does so within ten years
thereafter the title would remain in the
grantee but that the latter would have
no remedy to obtain possession or TO
otherwise render his title effective. 1t
is fair to infer that argument of the
same nature was presented in the trial
court in support of the requested ms
truction and that the latter was grant
ed as meaning what in my first dis
senting opinion and in this opinion it
is construed to mean and that fact
alone would amply excuse failure on
defendants part to ask, even if other
wise it would have been it's duty to do
so, for other instructions defining the
terms used. If the trial judge had
not concurred in counsels view of the
law on the point he would have eX-
pressed the instruction in other Ian
guage. Defendants attorney, the re-
cord shows, excepted to the instruc'
ton. The inference is that he op'
posed its granting.
! If instructions are so ambiguous
confusing or misleading that even the
appellate court finds it difficult to un
derstand them, it cannot be said will
any certainty that the jury understood
them, that the trial judge performed
his duty or that both parties have ha(
a fair trial.

SHIP CANAL

ILLINOIS READY TO SPEND TWEEN
TY MILLION DOLLARS AND AC-
INVITES OVER PROJECT RE-
NEWED.

CHICAGO, November 21-While
President Taft has been talking to the
advocates Of a deep ship canal along
the Atlantic seaboard just inside the
ocean, the advocates of the lakes-to-
the-gulf waterway have renewed their
activities, with the object of uniting
all the vari)us interests in the effort
to put through" the project.
Only $1O,OOO,Oo0 stands in the way of
securing a ship waterway from Chicago
to the gulf of Mexico, according to w.
clyde Jones, member of the Illinois
Senate.
illinois," he says, has appropriated
and is ready to spend $2OOOO,OOO for a
deep waterway. Government experts
have said that this sum would complete
the work from Lockport, the present
end of the drainage canal. to Utica, III.
The experts have added that only $1O,-
900 900 would be needed to deepen the
Illinois river enough to open the
waterway through to st. Louis, Mo.
From that point we should have the
aid of every force in the central part
of the United States"
The question of how this $2O,OOO,OO
shall be expended will come up to be
settled at the special session of the Le-
gislature which Governor Deneen will
can for next month.
Senator Lorimer, who has devoted a
great deal of time to the advocacy of
waterway to the gulf, want sthe
state to delay expending the money
until it has some assurance from the
federal government that the United
States will help in the work.
John NJ. Even, chairman of the Oh
cago commission, who is a stront
friend of the deep waterway, has sur
prised some of his co-workers by stat
ing that too little thought has beer
given to the matter of terminal facil
tiles.
That improvement of terminal fa
ciIities is sorely needed in Chicago
is shown by the statistics of her lax
and river commerce In the 20 year
between 1887 and 1907 the total lax
receipts at the port of Chicago de
creased 2,518,54S tons. In 1887 the fig

PAINLESS SURGEON
HAS new METHOD

LONDON. Nov 2O.-Prof Jonesco,
dean OF the University of Bucharest
Rumania, who performed the remark
able operation at the Seamens Hos
pital, at Greenwich on Thursday, using
the new anaesthetic, stovaine, has
aroused the deepest interest in British
medical circles by the successful de-
moustration Of the possibilities of his
discovery. Although a man of the
highest standing at home, he came to
England without having put himself in
relations with any medical association
or even any individual medical man of
mark.
At first he found great difficulty in
securing a hearing and an opportunity
for a demonstration of his wonderful
discovery. He was surprised and
somewhat aggrieved. He might have
left the country unknown, for no
class of men are more conservative and
more suspicious of countenancing even
a suggestion of unorthodoXy, let alone
charlatanism, than the British medical
men.
Fortunately, however, meeting DR..
Bland-Sutton, one of the greatest sur
geons in England, his difficulties were
removed, and the week after his ar
rival Prof. Jonnesco performed the
operation. The result of this was that
he was invited to lecture before the
Royal Society of Medicine the follow
| ing afternoon.
Prof Jonnesco commenced his ex-
periments in 1908, and soon proved on
animals that a mixture of neutral sui
phate of strychnine with stovaine in
solution gave a perfect analgesia with
out any of the drawbacks of a general
anaesthetic. The proportions of the
mixture vary with the seat of the
puncture and the age and general con-
dition of the patient
Prof. Jonnesco, in hundreds of oper-
ations of all kinds on all parts of the
body, from head to feet, and on pa
TENTS varying in age from "a months
to Is years, did not find a single in.
stance of the heart or the respiration
being effected. He has maintained
the condition of analgesia during va
rious periods up to two hours which

spite of the great 'ucrease in popula-
ton. business and territory, the fig
ures were only 3,0O7,O74 tons.
Another phase of the waterway agi-
tation has been brought to the front
by Jens Jensen, the consulting land
secape architect OF the West Park sys-
TEN of Chicago.
Make it a pleasure thoroughfare, ~
he says, linking picturesque state
parks and thriving cities as well as a
highway of international trade.
No more convenient route for a state
boulevard reaching from Chicago down
ward through the state, could be found
than along the banks of this water
way"

was the longest.
Many advantages for this form of
analgesia are APPARENT Immediately.
One notably is the avoidance of diff
Guilty in operations in the throat due
to the danger when the patient is un-
conscious, caused by blood interfering
with the breathing. Prof. Jonnesco's
methods enables him to do without
tracheotomy in these cases.
A good example of the completeness
of the analgesia and its total lack of
bad effect on the patient was given by
the professor in his lecture before the
Royal Medical College, when he show
ed on a screen Photographic of sur
geon operating on himself. The sur
geon is a specialist in hernia living at
Jassy, Rumania.
He himself developed inguanal her
mia, he had a strychnia-stovaine injec-
ton and operated on himself before
class of students to whom he lectured
while performing the operation. Eight
days later he removed the stitches and
was perfectly cured.
In no case yet has there been the
slightest after i'll effect from stovaine.
The man operated on Thursday by
Prof. Jonnesco had a headache for
couple of hours that night. Otherwise
he was not affected
One of the fundamental principles OF
the method is the puncture of the cord
at two points-between the first and
second dorsal vertebrae for superior
analgesia of the head, neck, thoraX and
upper extermitie, and between the
twelfth dorsal and first lumbar verta-
brae for inferior analgesia of the abdo-
men, perineum and lower extremities
The amount of the injection is cubic
centimetre.
Prof. Jonnesco will sail for America
on the steamer Kronprinzessen &C.
cellie. He has not made any plans
for his visit there. He has not ar
ranged to lecture, but he hopes to find
the American medical world easier OF
approach than he found the English,
although to those who know the latter
the professor, by conquering it in a
week, accomplished under the circum-
stances a very considerable feat.
