WILDCAT GNAWS OFF FEET
TO ESCAPE FROM TRAP
PitifuI Tragedy of the Wild Is Ex-
hibited at Cheyenne, WyO.

Evidence of pitiful tragedy of the
wild exhibited at the county court
house at Cheyenne, Wyo., were the
two front feet of wildcat which
Harry Creathbaum found in a trap
which he set near Meriden.
The cat, caught firmly in the trap,
gnawed off it's legs to escape. Creath-
baum, desiring to end the creature S
misery, followed its trail for several
hundred yards, but could not locate
it. The severed feet were brought
in with three coyote hides, which
were offered for bounty.

Every Twenty-FOur Hours 100000

Meteoric stones are constantly fall
ing, flying through space with amaz-
ing velocity, and every twenty-four
hours about 4OO,OO0,OOO of these
stone or iron-strike the atmosphere
of our globe. Rushing fragments fill
the air. Only thin stratus separates
us from every possible humiliation.
Some of them are only as big as
a pen nib, others-like the great
Chupaderoes meteorite-weigh ten
tons. The latter fell in Chihuahua,
Mexico, accompanied by a dazzling
glare of light. Meteors sometimes
descend in showers, sometimes they
come singly. A beautiful display of
meteors occurred in Great Britain in
1866.

NATIONAL GsTEO-
PATH|C CONVENTION

Kansas City, Mo, Aug. 3.-A
new campaign against infantile
paralysis was announced at the
twentieth annual convention of
the American Osteopathic Asso-
citation, the sessions of which CON
tlnue through the entire week in
this city. The recent epidemic
startled the public when the med
'lcal world admitted its absolute
inability to cure the disease with
medicine, and the newspaper re-
ports produced somewhat of a
panic in some sections of the
country due to the loss of conf
dence in medical help. But now
the osteopaths come forward and
claim at this convention that as
this fatal malady is distinctly a
disease of the spinal cord, it is
one which falls peculiarly in their
field, as the spine is their greatest
speciality.
While it recognized that os-
iteopaths have been performing
miracles in restoring .paralyzed
legs and arms, the general public
had not grasped the fact that the
osteopathic philosophy applies as
well to the acute disease during
the epidemics as to the paralysis
which follows after.
AS there is not hotel in Kan
sas City large enough to house the
convention, the sessions are be-
ing held in Convention Hall.
Nearly three thousand delegates
are present. DR.. O. J. Snyder, Of
Philadelphia, president of the
Pennsylvania State Board of Os-
teopathic Examiners, is the presi-
dent of the association and pre-
sides at the convention. DR.. R. H.
Williams of Kansas City, is chair
man of the general arrangement
committee. DR.. Frank Farmer,
of Chicago, is in charge of the
program.
The convention rose in indig-
Inant protest against the action OF
the War Department in refusing
professional recognition to osteo-
pathic physicians in preparedness
work. A number Of osteopathic
physicians who are competent
surgeons and have qualified in
Red Cross work, have been turned
down by the War Department.
In Canada, the osteopaths have
offered their services to the GOV
eminent for the examination and
treatment of troops destined for
Europe, but have been refused be-
cause they are osteopaths. The
convention waxed wroth at this
and determined upon drastic ac-
ton.
Announcement was made that
osteopathic training is now on a
compulsory four-year course in
every osteopathic college, with
more total hours of teaching than
in most medical schools.
The technique for newly discov-
cred cure for cataracts was made
public for the first time by DR..
r. H. Huntington, of Philadel-
phia. Osteopathic twilight
sleep" without the use of drugs
was discussed by DR.. d. V. Moore
of Iowa Falls, Iowa, and DR.. Ear
nest R. Proctor, of Chicago, DR..
Frank A Wright, of Fond du
Lac, Wis, DR.. F. A. Luedicke, of
Denver, DR.. F. c. Dymond, of
Des MONIES, and DR.. NJ. F. Clarke
of Indianapolis.
Continuous clinics were held BY
specialists all the week in the va
rious sections and hundreds of pa
tients were treated for diseases of
various sorts.
