NEW X RAY SHOWS
HAND BEHIND DOOR
Danger of Burning Eliminated
by New Invention

New York.-After fifteen years of ex-
p~erimentation marked by many re
verses and disappointments, Charles
IL. Stanley, an electrical engineer, an
nounced that he had perfected an X
ray device which will mark as great an
advance in the science of surgery and
therapeutics as the original Y ray Of
ROentgen.
A demonstration Of the machine in
Stanley's laboratory made it appear
that the forecast by Guglielmo Mar
conf that one would some time be able
TO look from one room into another
through the dividing walls is about to
be realized.
Through an ordinary door an inch and
an eighth thick and twelve feet from
the ray generated by the electrical ma
chine a reporter was able to distinguish
clearly the bones of the hand Of Stan
ley moving ON the other side. as well
as TO see the outlines of his hand.
This test was made simply to Illustrate
the immensely greater power Of the
new machine over the old X ray de
vices. 1t is only one of the improve
ments claimed by Stanley.
The principal value of the discovery
lies in the fact that the rays may be
applied to patients for extended peri
DDS Of time without the slightest dan
ger OF burns resulting. The danger of
burns. often incurable, has been one
Of the most serious drawbacks to the
use of the old Y ray and often has off
set the advantages accruing.
The Roentgen rays are ordinarily ap
piled only long enough To obtain a PIC
ture Of the wound, fractured bone, dis
location or diseased portion of the
body on which it is proposed TO op
crate. With the new rays a photo
graph is not necessary, as the rays
may be continued an indefinite length
of time on the patient, and the sur
geon may work directly in the ray

The new afrship has a smaller crew
than the ordinary Zeppelin, but her

Among the crew are men able TO make
a fresh supply of poisonous gas bombs

1T is reported that ten airships OF
the new type are already built. Sew
eral more are stated to be in course
of construction for the purpose of
taking part In a proposed aerial inva-
sion of England"
An aeroplane destroyer" designed
for attacking dirigible airships, has
been perfected in Italian government
workshops In the last few months. 1t
is an enormous machine with three
separate engines and with a total en-
ergy of more than $50 horsepower.
1t consists. in fact, of the bodies of
two ordinary tractor biplanes placed
side by side and far enough apart so
shat there Is room between them for
the propeller of a third engine. Each
of the two main bodies has its own
engine and tractor screw In front, so
that 1t looks at first like two ordinary
tractor biplanes flying hand In hand.
On the section of wing which Joins
the two bodies is placed the body work
of an ordinary pusher biplane, with
the engine and propeller behind. In
this way the body projects well for
ward In front Of the screws of the
other two engines, so that it can carry
a gun of considerable size and have a
clear field OF fire forward, backward
and on both sides, without danger of
hitting its own screws or wings,
The machine is capable of lifting a
huge cargo of bombs large enough to
be certain to destroy a Zeppelin IL
they hit 1t, and even capable of doing
serious damage to q battleship.

CHILDREN'S HOME
SUPT. STUCKEMAN MAKES AN
NUAL REPORT-MANY PEG
PIE VISIT HOME.

Sioux Falls, June 1.-THE Chill
dren's Home carries on its work in a
quiet and u"npretentious manner, but
there is evidence that there are thou
sands of people in the state who are
interested in it's work and make it. a
point to visit the institution when IN
the city.
During the last year over 10000
visitors registered-an average of
over 81 a day. Street cars running
right to the grounds is a great ac-
commodation to those who want to
make the visit, but there are many
from out of town who do not find out
that there is such an accommodation
until they have walked at least part
of the distance. In this connection
it has been suggested that inasmuch
as the home Is a terminal point of
the line, it would increase the traf-
fc and also be an accommodation to
have some Of the east side ears
labeled "Children's Home"
In concluding his report to the
board of directors at the annual
meeting, Supt. Stuckeman said:
THE receiving home has, as in
former years, proved its usefulness
not only as a temporary housing
place for dependent children, but al
so as a place where these children
are actually prepared for placement
in family homes. A family of five
received in January could not have
been placed in any home as they
came in. All needed hospital care
which was given, besides other great
ly needed instruction and training,
before we dared entertain the
thought of Offering them for place
ment in any home. When a short
time ago, three of them took the
train for their new home, in the
same family, anyone might have felt
proud to receive them.
I'm the case of another girl of IA
years, who had been beaten into in
sensibility a number of times by her
own father, IL took some time of pa
tent instruction and care to bring
her up to normal, both physically
and mentally, before the idea OF
placement could be thought of. There
being no other place in the state
where the physically disabled or Grip
pied child can be cared for, it be
comes necessary for the home at
times to assume this responsibility.
Teddy is a case in point. After two
years in Chicago he returned some
what improved, but with the same
heart failing to perform its intended
functions. Even this helpless unfor-
tunate boy OF 9 years has found a
home, for the summer at least, with
a kind hearted woman, who might
have had her choice of the best we
have to offer. Only a few weeks age
another boy of II years, whose case
is almost identical with Teddy's.
came TO us with a younger brother.
after being neglected almost to the
point of starvation. Perhaps he toe
may find a temporary family home.
1t is certainly large hearted, to say
the least. to accept such a charge
even for a few months.
The society ought never be asked
to receive the feeble minded child.
but we are continually being asked
to do something in behalf Of such as
are neglected or mistreated. Aid has
been gladly extended in such cases
and several have been actually re-
ceived to be later sent to the insti-
tuition at Redield."
