In wounds of the heart itself the es-
cape Of blood is never in large quaint
ty, and the lethal consequences are
due to the fact that the escape Of
blood from within its cavity or cavities
into the surrounding sac of the peri
cardium mechanically interrupts the
alternate contraction and expansion by
which its pumping action is maintain
ed. Accordingly the results OF the
wound of tie heart are usually identi-
cal with those Of gradual suffocation.

Gen. Arthur Macarthur.

AT the meeting held to observe the
29Oth anniversary Of the landing of
the Pilgrim Fathers on Plymouth
Rock, Gen. Macarthur responded to
the toast "Verbosity as a Factor in
the Equation of Civilization" We
take the following from the Milwau-
kee Free Press as to what he said:
"The inability to get the right men
into Office and to convert discussion
into action were mentioned, and the
general expressed the fear lest, with a
diminishing capacity for self control,
the nation may talk itself into an in
extricable foreign imbrogllo."
"One of the least probable things
in our foreign relations is a war with
any other nation," said the general,
''yet the public mind is almost in
commissions as a. result of war talk.
While We are enjoying the spontane-
Gus good will of every country in the
world, there is more war talk in this
country than in all the rest of the
world
"a little self-control, little refiec-
tion will make it quite apparent how
absolutely ruinous it will be in con-
sequences if, on the occasion of every
trifiing episode, we discuss seriously
and eagerly the pOSSibilitV of its being
a cause of war"
He deprecated this tendency to
throw spasm whenever the army
was mentioned, and said that between
for a land office, the prospective
create public opinion on behalf of an
intelligent military policy that would
tend both to efficiency and economy.
He declined to speak further on the
ground that to do so would bring him
into the domain of official action"

grandee the grand mufti.
She makes any motions which she
pleases, such as lifting her arms, ex-
tending her hand, signing, putting her
hand to her head, etc.-in fact. amy
kind of absurd gesture-saying at the
same time. Thus does the grand muf-
ti!' or $50 does the grand muffin
Now. these two words thus and
$50 make. the game. for when she
says THUS does" etc., every one must
make just the same gesture or do the
same thing. But when she says 80
does the grand multi" no one must
initiate her. If any player does she
pays forfeit.
1t requires great attention and
quickness not to get confused by the
game as it quickens and thus to make
mistakes.

bars and a surface of pivotally con-

Manila, May 3O.-Further eXanlina-

Dewey. which is partially submerged
at Olongapo. In Subig Bay, has
strengthened the belief of those Of the
navy who have held that damage was
done deliberately by a band of con-
spfrators against the government.
However, it is now learned that the
valves had not been opened as at
first declared, though they were found
to have been leaking little. This
leakage would not have caused the
trouble. The dock sank more rapid
ly than would have been the case had
all the valves been opened and no
other opening made. Accordingly, the
experts believe that a large hole will
| be found in the port side of or bottom
of the dock. 1t is probable that the
| mystery will not be cleared until the
dock has been raised. How long this
! will take cannot be said but quite
| likely 1T will be four or five weeks.

| changed to-day except that the port
