OFFICE SEEKERS HOT ON TRAIL
 OF GEN. OBREGON

Mexico City, Dec. 6-In a tiny udely-furnished office on the second floor of building undergoing re- pairs, General Alvaro Obregon, as preeident-elect, has received daily hundreds of men and women who came here to plead their cause with him before his inauguration. Most of them were office seekers and claim ants for political favor and they spent long hours waiting to tell General Obregon in what particular way they helped him in his ascendency and why they should be rewarded. Their. number were so great that the pres!- dent-eleot was at his office seven hours day, seven days u week and most of that tme was consumed In a pa ticnt hearing of claims.
 Following an arduous campaign which eulmlnated in his overwhelm- ing election last September. General ObreEon came to Mexico City and es- tablishod headquarters in the office sf st,. Avensda Msdsrso wherS 1ss his ossSa san small at best, was divided by a cloth partition Into a private sanctum for tho general and compact working quarters for his several secretaries
 Outside there were several anta- chambers which, from 9.30 o'clock in tho morning when the president-elect arrived for work, until o'clock at night, with couple of hours allow ed for lunch, were crowded with peo- pie.
 There were numerous doors to pass before the inner chamber Is entered and at each stood two guards, who questioned closely all corners. Those with apparent legitimate reasons for their presence were allowed to pro- cccds the others are turned back to join the ever-present throngs in the corridors,
 General obregon has been quoted as saying that one of the contributing g elements to Mexico's unrest has been tho popular belief that a successful political candidate must reward every one of his supporters He has des- cribed the system as pernicious be- cause in the eventthat such rewards are not forthcoming, the erstwhile supporter becomes an enemy and sows 10 seeds of dfssenSion and trouble, It is his wish. it is aid, to abolish the practice, to allow the republics pres ident absolute freedom in the choice of his servants at least to the extent that failure to reward substantially every man who was his booster does not mean possible revolution.
 But the hundreds who gathered out side his office daily apparently knew nothing of this policy, or if they did they held on in the hope that ex- captions would be made. because theiI numbers never diminished despite the seven hours of conferences which the presi6ent-elect held every day. Some of them apparently have no other occupation
 By way of diversion, General Obre- gon provided a band which gave daily concerts in the courtyard

 The Visiting Nurses are still doing the infant welfare work of the city under the auspices of the Depart ment of Health which they begun year ago last May. On the first of January this work will be taken up by the ten field nurses engaged by the Department of Health of the city.
 The Visiting Nurses have had the pleasure of increasing the attendance st the Health Stations during all the difficult months when the work was just begun from an average attend anee of two at the Health Station during the first month to an average of 1S.4 during the month of Novem- Der.

Russians Have Discovered New
 Anaesthetic

Paris, Dec. 6.-An anaesthetic win relatively no danger and pleas ant to take' Is said te have been produced and used in the hospitals of Soviet Isussla. Doctor Marcou, once an interne of the Paris hospitals describes the process in an article written for L'Informatien. He assert ed that Its experimental uss on ani- fHals to Professor Kravkof and its application to operations on persons te Professor Fedovoff, formerly sur geon to the emperor.
 Doctor Marcou says the patient awalses from the sleep produced by it 4 little heavy In the head, but without nausea or III effects.
 It Is methylpropylcarbino in the proportion of 1 to 100 parts of warm, salty water that does the business, he says, This is injected directly hollow tube Is left in the vein so more may be pumped in as needed.
 When from 100 to 200 grams of the Hquid have been put in the blood the patient sleeps, but there still remains reflex action In the eyes, which Is taken as the standard of anaesthet- ikatien.
 As more of the sleep-producer is used, sensitiveness leaves the eyes and the surgeon operate, testing the eyes from time to time so as 70 Recp the blood system supplied with the fluid. The patient sleeps several horus aft ef the completion of the operation.
 I"Hundreds of operations" says Doctor Marcou, "were performed in Russia during my stay. I watched some or them. Not aone case of death has yet been reported"
 The anaesthetic is said to be par tieulariy valuable for head and neck operations where the use of ether or chioroform mask 1nterferes with the surgeons work, In such diseases as make the introduction of salty so- lutions Into the blood undesirable or dangerous, says Doctor Maroou. salt may be replaced by glucose or bi- carbonate of soda.

tricity or foot power, the work got under way. No fewer than 300 men have been graduated from the toy factory, their ailment substantially cured.
 Now an accumulation of animals such as not even Noah accommodated in his ark are ready for shipment to the little inmates of great city or phanages-many of them left by hero fathers who fell during the war. Au- tomobiles, tracks, locomotives and all other kinds of toys are in the as semblage. The K. of c. could have found some market for them, but the men who made the toys heartily agreed with the Knights that they should be given to the kids. Supreme Secretary William J. Mckinley will act as Santa Claus from K. Of c. hea dquarterS in New Haven and many thousands of little ones will have something worth while on Christmas morn.
