Gen. Arthur Murray.

Major General Arthur Murray, who
receryly was appointed to the com
mand of the department of the lakes
after having served for several years
as chief of the coast artillery, was
born in Bowling Green, Mo-, April %.
1851, and was graduated from the West
Point academy in 1874. Immediately
he joined the artillery arm of the serv-
ice. At that time the artillery corps
offered a rather inactive career. and
Cadet Murray was soon back at West
Point as instructor in philosophy He
studied law and later became Judge
advocate of the departments of Mis-
souri, and Dakota. From that duty he
was detailed to Yale university as pro-
fessor of military science. In the war
with Spain he was again assigned to
duty as judge advocate. His most con-
spicuous war record was made later in
the Philippines, where as colonel of
the 43d regiment of volunteers he sup
pressed the rebellion in Samar and
Leyte. In 1906 he was appointed a
brigadier general and chief of the
coast artillery, and early in the pres
ent year he was promoted to the rank
of major general.

ton by the Gentry brothers came near

of the professors The animal was taxi
en- to the department of medicine for
examination. Dissection was thought
to be the best method of study and they
decided to kill the animal. Never hay-
ing killed one they were forced to ex-
pertinent. Cyanide of potassium was
chosen as the means of execution, but
how much to use was a question that
left the professors in a quandry. Two
grains suffice to kill a man. After
elaborate calculations, 120 grains was
administered, but the camel did NOT
die. Examination showed there was
not enough water in the animars sew
eral stomachs to dissolve the poison.
Water was therefore pumped into IL.
And still it lived.
Then they cut off the Gamers heao.
This plan failed, for its heart kept on
beating and the other organs of it's
body went on normally. They finally
succeeded in killing the animal but
until they had removed nearl all of it's
vital organs.
The medical students profted much
from the practice and study OF dissec-
