LONDON. Feb. 24.-When parlia-
inent gets fairly down to business it
will be up to King Edward and Pre-
mier AsqRith to deal with tile most
tangled situation ever known In Eng
fish politics.
Here is the position: A house of
commons passes a finance bin by the
biggest majority ever recorded.
Against all constitutional practice the
house of lords throws it out. Pre-
mier Asquith refers the matter to the
electorate. Furthermore he implicit
~ declares that he will not accept Of
flee again until Cd The legislative
vote of the lords is removed. go
every vestage of power of interfer-
ence in finance is similarly removed
from the lords.
The election takes place. But as in
every English general election, thou
sards of small local matters obscure
the great point. and every other sub
iect under the sun is talked about
rather than the main issue. In this
case Asquith's opponents had no wish
to fight on his ground. The preferred
TO fight on their own. Theft platform
was:
Asquith's Dilemma.
The supreme British navy on the as
sumption that at present the navy is
policy of free trade; class opposition
TO the liberal social reform policy.
The house of lords question was
never fairly answered In every coun-
try'rdistriet' the conservatives swept
the board on the atfer If protnct:cn.
Similarly in the great towns the lib
erals more than held their ground be-
cause. of their adhesion to free trade.
And so The selections finished thus:

This means that liberals and CON
servatives. the two great antagonists,
are equal. The balance of power is
held 10y the laborites and nationalists.
Or matter matters the liberals will get
their undivided support. Trusting to
this they have taken office. But the

How do you know that" asked the

True" said Jen; and why should
these wretches have murdered that
MANI"
AS to that. we are by no means
certain that they are the same"
I don't follow you"
No? And yet it is easy enough If
those who slew Mr. AyImer wanted
his bodyl, they could have stolen it on
the high-road, where they struck him
down. 1t was mere foolishness to ven

Electrical 4naestheSia Used.

DIR. Louise Rabinovitch, whose pub
lie test of a new method of electrical
anesthesia on a rabbit was widely dis
cussed few months ago, had the sat
isfaction of seeing her method success
fully applied in the amputation of a
mans leg, in a hospital at Hartford be-
fore a number Of surgeons. She super
vised the operation, which was in the
hands of DR.. Johnson, who adjusted the
electrodes, one at the mans ankle, an
other at the shin and a third at the
groin, with the result that when the
current of four milliamperes and fifty
four volts was turned on the patient
had 10 pain al ALL while several Of his
toes were cut off on, account of frost
bite which had started gangrene The
patient had no shock or reaction or
other discomfort usually connected
with the use of ether The moment
the current is turned off the part op-
Grated on at once resumes its normal
condition.

| ter with the Inspector. but the CONVEX
| sation proved extremely unsatisfactory.
ArkeI was not a keen witted man, and
in a case like the present-diffcult and
involved-he was quite at a loss how
TO proceed. Finally, Major Jen dis
/ missed him in despair. and while ArkeI
went to see his men, who were posted
round the house, Jen remained alone
to think Of what he should do.
q must be my own detective" he
thought, pacing the library. I must
do the work myself, with the assist
ance of David. To find out who stole
the deviI-stick; that is the first step.
To discover who killed Maurice; that
IS the second step. To learn who car
ried away his body; that is the third
step. Three very difficult things to
find out, and I don't see where to be-
gin I must learn all I can about Mau
rice's past life, for he may have enc
mics of whom I know nothing. I shall
go and sleep, and when I awaken 1
shall set to work to solve these mys-
teries."
AS he spoke, the Major unbarred the
shutters of the window. The rain had
ceased, the dawn was breaking, and
the terrible night was at an end.

Nine, CUrie Finds POIOnium,

It was announced before the Acads-
my of Sciences at Berlin that Nine.
Curie, who with the late Prof. Curie
discovered radium, has succeeded after
140 days of research in obtaining
tenth of milligram of the new ele-
ment known as polonium. She states
that it possesses a radioactivity SUI
perior to radium, but disappears rap"
idly, whereas radium conserves its 81
ergy indefinitely Polonium is said 10
be 5000 times rarer than radium. TIE
tiny speck produced was the result Ct
treating five tons of pftchblend with
hydrochloric acid. 1t is kept in vase
of quartz and the vase is split and
cracked in all directions from the rapid
chemical decomposition caused by the
polOnium.

tia Of those States, including Wiscon-

During the maneuvers from 10000 to
10000 troops will be on the range and
as many as 5000 Or 5000 at one time.
There is an appropriation bill pending

LIKE A BATH OF FIRE.
Fireman at Lumber Plant Dies from
Terrible Burns

Terrible Burns,
Edward Quinn, a fireman at the sash
and door plant Of the R. McMiIlen
Company in Oshkosh, is dead as the re-
suit of being badly burned. August
Zuehlke, assistant fireman, is badly
burned about the face but will recover
The accident resulting in the fatality
was the result of sudden and pecu-
liar fire at the plant at ? o'clock in the
morning. Just how the blaze original
ed is not known, although it is believ-
ed that a lighted lantern caused an
explosion among the sawdust in the
firing room. Quinn and Zuehlke were
feeding sawdust and slabwood into the
furnaces beneath the first and second
boilers. One of them opened a door
overhead through which the shaving
vault is reached Immediately the en-
tire freroom was filed with flames.
The men rushed through the flames 20
wards the door leading to the engine
room. Zuehlke was the first to get
out and consequently he was not so
badly burned as his companion. Quinn
had the flesh literally cooked or his
body. The McMillen Company is build
ing a large new brick factory and the
f1reroom Is supposed to be fireproof
structure, and on this account the
flames were prevented from spreading
to other parts Of the building.

Heirs of George Bu11en, Ex-Chica-
goan, Fight Inheritance Levy.
An effort on the part of George
Bullen, the Chicago millionaire, to
avoid the payment of a 100000 in
heritance tax to the State of Wiscon-
sin, is in progress in Juneau in the
form Of an appeal to Judge Lueck of
the Circuit Court from the Waukesha
County Court. Mr. Bullen owned a
summer home at Oconomowoc, and
the inheritance tax is assessed against
this property on the ground that it
was his real residence. The estate
contends that before his death prac-
tically all of his property was placed
in trust in Chicago for his family, the
result being that, technically, Mr.. Bull
len was penniless for months before
his death. The authorities claim this
was an evasion Of the inheritance tax.

JObless Man Breaks Into Coal Cars
for wife's Sake.
Pleading that he was compelled to
steal coal to keep his young wife and
little child from freezing to death, Jo-
Seph Brasbic, an Italian laborer who
has been out of work for some time
and arrested by detectives of the Mil
waukee road while breaking into coal
cars in Madison, was fined s. and costs.
The county viii take care of the fam
lily. For some time past the Milwaukee
road has been losing considerable
quantities of coal from its cars in the
yards and in transit and it is believed
that this arrest will have a deterrent
effect.
