Electricity Known Of Old.

A writer in the Elektrotechnisch
Anzeiger cites many incidents to show
that electricity was not unknown to
the ancients, and that George Eber's
suggestion in a novel that the Egyp-
tians made use of lightning conduc-
tors was well founded. Instruments
much like the modern heliograph were
also used, the writer says, by priests,
as means of communication between
temples. There can be no doubt, he
says, as to the temple having been
protected by lightning rods. The
Biblical description shows that the
roof was provided with metallic points
held aloft by columns and that these
ending in chains terminated In great
water tanks. He adds; "All Of which
is vouched for In the first book OF
Kings and the second book OF Chroni-
cles"

There is more Catarrh IN this
section Of the country than all
other diseases put together, and
until the last few years was sup
posed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pro-
nounced 1t a local disease and
prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly falling to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it
lncurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be constitutional dis.

False Teeth Case
Will Be Retired

Under a decision handed down by
the supreme court Dr. J. G. Nc
Clintock of Topeka, and DR.. A. L.
King are held for trial for mall
practice. The decision grows out
Of the famouse case In which 1t was
believed that Jesse Wingfield Of
Junction City, had swallowed his
false teeth, but when the operation
was performed for them they were
not to be found. Mr. Wingfield died
after the operation.
The operation was performed by
DR.. McClintock, DR.. King and DR..
W. F. Bowen, but DR.. Bowen's case
is ordered dismissed by the supreme
court. On the night of October 8,
1908, Mr.. WingfieldL who was a
farmer, awoke and thought he was
choking. He thought he had some
thing in his throat. The next dis
covery was that the upper half OF
his false teeth was gone. He be-

Topeka. An operation was perform
ed upon Mr., Wingfield but no teeth
were found in the stomach as was
Expected. A few days later Mr.
Wingfield died, and post mortem
examination was made. Still no
teeth. In fact, the teeth never were
found.
A suit was brought against the
three doctors charging them with
malpractice. The action was brought
by the widow. The district court
Of Geary county held that there was
not sufficient evidence for holding
the surgeons for trial by jury, An
appeal to the supreme court was
taken, and that body holds DR.. Nc

"a affecting me-" If he had ever
said an unkind word to the mayor
Mr.. Cowan was sorry, for ne did
not think 1t was right to do that.
After remarks by Councilmen Hees
and Robson, Mr.. Rice called Mr.
Cowan to the chair, and took the
floor in his own defense. He be-
gan by abusing the Reflector for
printing his remarks which It did
merely as a matter Of news. He
denied that he had made any such
remarks at the Brotherhood meeting
which will be surprising Information
to the large number of men present.
He denied an assertion made In q
signed statement of seven members
OF the council, which was published
in the Reflector some two years ago,
that he had used between $1,000
and $14O0 of the street and alley
fund for the construction Of con-
crete culverts without consulting the
street and alley committee. Mr..
Rice insisted the committee had been
duly consulted.
Thereupon Councilmen Hees and
Gleissner, both members of the street
and alley committee at the time the
cnlverts were put in, jumped to their
feet and asserted that the mayor
had never consulted them at all.
Mr.. Cowan asked Councilman Coul-
son If these culverts were not put
in just before the municipal cleo
tion, and If some of them we're not
outside the city limits in Grant town
ship. Mr.. Coulson replied in the af-
firmative.
