ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION.
How the PuImotor Is Used to Restore
Normal Breathing,

NORMAN 6reaChIn9s
The pulmotOr is an automatic resus
citation appliance which produces a
flow of iHlH:Ied and eXhaIed air by q
single nozzle, the rhythm of respiration
adjusting itself automatically to the
dimensions of the lung, and thus the
astonishing result is produced Of a
seemingly lifeless body beginning to
breathe regularly as soon as the pull
motor is placed in connection with it.
The pulmotor works directly on the
respiratory organs and if the spark of
life still exists will fan it into a fame
and give the heart and lungs a chance
to fight.
The pulmotor is used on persons over
come by gas. electric shock, apparent
~ drowned or in other cases where the
breathing of the patient has been seri-
ously impaired or stopped entirely and
where there still remains a slight heart
action. Its motive power is an oxygen
cylinder containing this gas, which will
supply a 60 per cent mixture Of air
and oxygen to the patient for forty
minutes. 1t has a great advantage
over artificial respiration by hand in
that it forces larger amounts Of oxy.
genated air into the lungs than it is
possible by ordinary methods Of artif-
cial respiration. and the work can be
kept up longer philadelphia Press.

The famous steamer Corwin, formerly
 the United States revenne cutter Cor
 win, was sold to the highest bidder on
 the steps of the federal building at Se-
 attle by Deputy United States Marshal
 William Downey. The vessel was bid
 in by Ben Moyses, secretary-treasurer
 of the Independent Brewing Company,
 who is interested in the Kotzebue Transportation & Trading Company, her owners. Although she was at one
 time the pride of the Boring sea rev.
 enue cutter fleet, the vessel brought
 the modest sum of 5G,8jO. Her new
 boilers, installed about a year ago, cost approximately 5000. There w,re about
 forty intervening libels in addition to claims for wages of seamen who were employed aboard the steamer.
 Proof was quite conclusively estab
 lished few days ago in Fairbanks that there is a striking relationship between tEe language and customs of the h. dians of the Upper Tanana valley and those of the Navajo Indians. This tends to prove a theory founded some time ago by Father Julius teddy, head of the Indian mission at Panama, who has made study of Indian languages, and finds a strong similarity between those of the tribes mentioned. A few days ago, when the Indian witnesses in the Duke case, from Nenana, were look ing about town, some of them went into CalderheBd's store to listen to the play. ing of tunes on phonograph. One of the men, an old fellow, was on his knees looking at something that at tracted his attention near the floor, when Mir. Calderhead placed a record in the machine that contained chant of the Navajo Indians. Instantly the old Indian jumped to his feet and began to dance. Unexplained to those present that tLe chant was practically the same as had been taught him when a child by his parents.-Alaska Citizen.
 If the legislature of Alaska can man. age Co show to the administration how Alaskans feel on the subject of carpet bagging it will he performing work that wilk make it's existence valuable. Washington apparently still labors un- der the impression that Alaska is peo- pied by men whose ideas of fgovernment are primitive. There is always a ten- dency in every country to look upon "colonials" or "territorias" as people of provincial or inferior conceptions. To those wise meu of the east we are only what might be called a lot of es- sentially uncultivated individuals in whose hands the government of any place would be dangerous. If the na- tional administration decided tomor- row that Alaska neededa federal board for the conduct of it's affairs the chances are good that not a man in the territory would be asked to be one of its members. We are to Washington what a village is 10 city, but there would be no Washington if the people of cities had to be depended on for the making of the nation. Let Washing ton be respectfully reminded that people came to this country who are just as we'll equipped in any line as those who did not have courage to get away from asphalt sidewalks lest they might soil their patent leathers.-Sew- ard Gateway.

Seattle.-More than 2,5OO seal and blue fox skins, valued at 52OO,0OO, were brought to Seattle by the United States revenue cutter Manning, Capt. F. G. Dodge commanding, from the Boring sea and Unalaska. The sealskins were received from the government rookeries on St. Paul and St. George islands, forming the Pdbilof group.

Seward is, however the most central part of the territory today from the political point of view. From the in. terior it is the most easy place to reach, while it is in just about as near a cen. tral position as anything could be with respect to the whole Alaskan coast. The capital today is the only part of the territory which can be reached from any other only by steamboats.
