NEW WONDER OF THE HEART

10 test the pressure of blood upon
the heart a student of the London
hospital voluntarily submitted him
self to the ordeal of remaining sus-
pended By his heels for several min.
utes at a time from an iron hook fixed
in the ceiling. The experiment has re-
suited in the discovery of a hitherto
unappreciated characteristic of the hui
man heart.
1t has been shown that healthy
heart practically nullifies the effect of
gravity on the blood streams of the
body. Professor Leonard Hill, who
conducted the experiments, explains
that when a healthy man stands up
right the blood pressure in the vessels
in the neck is about equal to column
of 12O millimeters of mercury. The
pressure in the vessels of the lower
leg is much higher, about 100 milli-
meters, on account of the action of
gravity on the vertical column of
blood.
theoretically, if man is turned up-
side down the leg pressure should
therefore fall to about 120 millimeters.
since gravity is no longer acting,
while the arm and neck pressure
should rise TO somewhere about 100
millimeters. In case of the inverted
student it was found that although the
leg blood pressure Immediately drop.
ped to about so there was no cores
ponding rise of pressure in the neck
and arm vessels.
In other words, the healthy heart
has power to adapt itself to any pos
ture we may assume and yet keep the
blood pressure in the important parts
of the body, particularly in the heart
and head vessels, at the normal. The
abdominal cavity with its great net
work of large vessels is used as a res
ervoir into which the blood from the
limbs can be poured so as never to
overcharge the heart itself or the YES
sells of the head and neck.
All depends, of course, on whether
the heart is in a healthy condition,
for experiments on rabbits have shown
that the organ loses its ability to reg
ulate automatically the blood pres
sure when the muscular tissues are
lax through want of exercise-London

DESTROYED
By Fire Was A Barn North
OF DanviIIe
Considerable Grain COnSuIh.
ed By The Flames

A destructive fire occurred on the
farm belonging to Mr.. Fremont Ban
bury, about three miles north of Dan
vile, Wednesday afternoon. At about
four o'clock in the afternoon, Mr..
Banbury went out of the house and
noticed a column of smoke arising
from the roof of the barn which is
about seventy-five yards distant from
the house, On making a hasty ex-
animation, he found that the barn
was burning, and the farm hands were
quickly summoned. Work was start
ed to extinguish the flames, but the
dry condition of the frame structure
caused 1t to burn like tinder and soon,
the fire was beyond control as there
was no way to fight it except with
buckets of water. All the men could
do was to stand by and watch the
barn for all that was inside was in
such a position that it could not be
hastily moved outside. Fortunately,
there was no live stock in the struc-
ture at the time of the fire, but there
was a considerable amount of grain,
which was loose in bin. The cause
of the fire is mystery as no one was
known to be around the building in
the last hour before the smoke was
discovered. The loss was covered by
insurance.

The PRINCE OF WALES

BY letters patent issuing from his
father, the young Duke of Cornwall IL
now the Prince of Wales. His acces,
sion to that dignity comedies with his
sixteenth birthday, for he was born
June %, 1894.
There is an erroneous impression,
prevalent among good many people,
that the eldest son of the King of
England Is Prince Of Wales by right
OF birth; or, in other words, that the
title Is inherent to the royal success,
sion. The present king had to be con,
tent with the title of Duke of Corn.
wall for considerable period after
his father, Edward VII, succeeded to
the throne, the duchy of Cornwall, un.
like the princely title, descending to
the eldest son of sovereign by vir,
tue of his birth. The origin OF the
higher. distinction, when Edward I.
presented his eldest son to his reluct.
ant Welsh lieges in Carnarvon castle,
is well known; but it was the son of
Edward ILL.,, afterward the famous
Black Prince, whose tomb is still one
of the sights of Canterbury cathed.
raj, who first received the grant of the
principality under the conditions now
governing the succession. And 1t was
this Prince of Wales who took as his
own crest and that of his successors
the three ostrich feathers and the mot.
to "Ich Diem" from the blind old King
of Bohemia who fell in the princes
victory at Crecy.
The Black Prince, as already stated,
was the first kings son to receive
both the principality of Wales and the
duchy of Cornwall under the condi.
tions that still regulate succession to
both. In the language of the old grant,
the principality was entailed upon
him and his heirs the kings of Eng,
land" The duchy was given "to him
and his heirs the first begotten sons
of the kings of England" The dis.
tinction between the two grants is ob,
viously such that the duchy became
hereditary, while the principality does
not. Thus, when a prince of Wales
succeeds to the throne he becomes, so
to speak, his own heir, and the prin.
cipality is sunk in the larger dignity
of the crown. But his eldest son, on
the moment of his fathers accession
to the throne, becomes automatically
Duke of Cornwall as "the first begot-
ten son of the king of England" 1t
requires the special action known as
letters patent to revive in his favor
the title of Prince of Wales.-Brook.

THE BATTLE IN THE AIR
(Pittsburg Post)

(Pittsburg Pos)
Military and naval authorities will
keep close eye upon the maneuvers
at Atlantic City during the week be-
ginning July 4, when a trio of Ameri-
can aeroplanes, admittedly the most
effective in the world, will conduct a
theoretical fight with one of Uncle
Sans battleships. The warships guns
will carry dummy bullets, but will be
equipped with Photographic appa-
ratus by which snapshots at the firing
instant will tell whether or not the
projectile should have struck the aero
plane, while the latter will attempt to
drop bombs on the warship, the
bombs, of course, being loaded with
sand. Should the aeroplanes be able
to drop bombs with any degree of sue
cess on a $5,OOO,0O0 battle ship, the
lesson will no doubt have an appre-
ciable effect in curbing the huge ex-
penditure annually made for costly
war vessels, and incidentally lead to
an immediate increase in government
aerial work.

COUNCIL
Hears Arguments Relative To
Proposed Ordinance
To Grant Franchise To Power
And Light Co.
But Decides To Proceed
Slowly In The Matter
And Takes A Recess Until
Thursday Evening
When The Ordinance viii
Again Come Up

The city council was called to or.
der on Wednesday evening at 1880
o'clock, after two days recess, by
President Edward Dever. All men,
bers were present.
The matter Of the proposed new
franchise for the Mt. Vernon Light
and Power Co., was Immediately TAX
en- up by the council and Mr.. Dwight
e. Sapp, who appeared as a citizen of
Mt. Vernon, made an impressive ad-
dress in favor of the passing of the
ordinance, which will grant the Light
and Power Co. the franchise. Fol
lowing this address, Mr.. Kachelmach-
er gave short talk on the matter
and explained that haste was neces-
sary as the option which Mr.. Stebbins
now holds on lot of machinery for
power station, is hanging in the bal
ance and for few days delay will
cause him to lose it and if this is the
case, the building of the plant will be
delayed for period of one year as it
takes several months to secure ma.
chinery, if it has to be ordered. The
machinery for which Mr.. Stebbins now
holds an option, is completed and if
this order is not sent in Immediately
it will go to some other company.
Hon. F. v. Owen spoke in favor of
the passing of the ordinance and
brought out number of important
points relative to the building of the
plant as sooon as possible. He illus
trated how it would mean the bring
ing of foreign capital into the city of
Mt Vernon and the only thing which
the company could possibly take from
the city would be the profits which
were realized by it.
Mr.. H. G. Devin appeared before
the council as an attorney represent
ing committee of the Citizens AS
sociation of Mt. Vernon. He made an
address of slightly different nature
from those which preceded him. He
urged the council to go slow in the
matter and be sure that they were
not giving too much when the fran
chise was granted.
The ordinance committee of the
council, to which the ordinance in
question had been referred, reported
that they had met in company with
committee of the Citizens associa-
ton and that great deal of time had
been devoted to studying and consid-
er the franchise and that they felt
that sufficient time had not been spent
on it and that they were not in posi-
tion to render a decision. More time
was asked by the committee and for
this reason, the meeting was recess
ed until Thursday evening at 1880, at
which time, it was hoped that all nee
essary information on the matter can
be secured and that some action will
be taken on the ordinance which con-
Germs the new franchise.
