OF The Heart Can Be Seen
With New instrument

Cambridge, Mass, Sept. 23-That
1t Is now possible for a physician to
note the heart beats of a patient who
may be on the other side of the world
Is the assertion OF DR.. Percy T..
Brown, OF the Harvard Medical
school. An instrument that would
make 1t possible is now installed in
the Harvard Medical School. DR.,
Brown says:
There is practically no limit to the
distance by which, through this
method. the palpitations OF the heart
could be seen. With the proper at
tachments the heart beats could be
carried around the world, The only
difference between transmitting the
heart beats 100 miles and sending
them around the world would be de-
lay due to the longer distance.

For Recreation Piers Has

Cleveland, Sept. 23 - Recreation
piers and harbor activities in Cleve
land will be superior to those of any
city on the lakes If the plans of Harry
G. Calm, secretary of the river and
harbor commission, bear fruit.
Calm has announced his plans, and
Engineer Thomas is drawing maps of
recreation piers and extension break
waters to be presented to the commits
sion at the next session of the legisla-
ture, says the Leader.
In the maps a recreation pier is
shown at the foot of Il. Fifty.fifth
street. Calm will propose that the
street ends be preserved in his outline
of the lake front developments. A
second recreation pier would be es-
tablished at the end of downtown
street
A piece of property extending from
+. Forty-ninth street to II. Fifty-fifth
street Is for sale, according to Calm.
and might be secured by the city
From the property an extension pier
will reach out into the water for dis
tance of 500 feet, according to his
plans. The pier would be erected on
piling eight feet above the water. The
top floor could be used for dancing,
while boats could be moored beneath.
At the Gordon park Calm plans to
have breakwater, extending 500 feet.
The space between, he says, will fur
nish the city with dumping ground,
which by next year will be badly need
ed. In time the place would be filed
and a 500.foot boulevard could be built
The cost of the entire improvement
would be less than the work now con-
templated by the city in erecting bulk
heads. The cost of transporting now
paid by the city to dredging compan.
les would be eliminated.
"A number of the improvements
were proposed to me during my trip
around the lakes and at Boston," said
Calm. He will place the entire scheme
before the commission at the next SEES
sion.

A MODEST HERO

was playing on the string-piece of Pier
81, East River. New York, when he
tripped and fell into the water. A
woman who saw him fall ran for help,
and the first person she met was a
neatly dressed man who had come of
one of the New Haven boats. The man
dropped his valise. ran to the spot and
dived into the water. He swan to
the boy, and grabbing him, managed
to get him aboard a sand barge. Pa.
trolman Meyers found the man and the
boy on the barge, and asked the man
his name. You don't want my name" "
said the man. THAT isn't necessary.

bulance, and the boy was removed 70

Meyers led the rescuer to seaman's
lodging house. He took a suit out of
his valise and put his wet suit into
the valise, and went on his journey.
Every effort was made at the lodging
house to have the man reveal his iden-
tity, but he said: Il only did my
