The general public of the United
states finds it difficult to understand
the grievance of Prof. Adolph L0renz,
the famous Viennese orthopedist and
probably no wonder. The situation rs
about like this: While the medical
profession as! represented, by say the
Johns Hopkins school, recognizes spe-
cialists ,ip the. treatment of different
diseases, it does not recognize any cx-
cept. those who have, regularly been
graduated from recognized school OF
gedicine. DR.. Lorenz is not q regular
medica, man. His talent, amounting to
n genius, runs in the direction of pre-
venting and correcting deformities and
diseases OF the bone, and sotfar as is
known he has attained greater emil
.nence in that direction than any hnT
man being who has ever lived. He is
not Il wizard or performer of mira :
cles; but he works cures which before
his day., were regarded as impossible.
His declared purpose in coming to
America was to show his gratitude for
what America did in saving the lives Of
hundreds of thousands Of Austrian
>children. He has been doing what he
could helping hundreds Of Anerica9
cripples; but the Regular medical men
have shown him scant courtesy, and
that was why lie talked Of going back.
Some have suggested that the doctors
were unsympathetic because of Aus
tria's former status as an enemy; but
there is nothing TO that. The opposi-
ton to DR.. Lorenz is the same as 1t is
to the chiropractors, the osteopaths and
others who do. not belong to the reg
ular school of medicine-the same as 1t
would have been to Mr.. 'Pasteur, had
he attempted to prescribe for any OF
the ills>of mankind.

There has been much comment, some
serious and some humorous, about the
recent feat of Secretary Fall, in shoot
ing a big rattlesnake through the head,
while passing through the Yosemite
valley. The shot was fired from horse
back with pistol, and killed the snake
dead. Severance Laidlaw, former
cowboy and big game hunter" is quot
ed as saying:
Far be it from me to detract from
the feats OF the great, bat the fact is
that the rattlesnake aimed as carefully
at Secretary Falls rife as he aimed at
the snake. The eye of an aroused rat
tier is one of the quickest things in ma
ture. When weapon is pointed at
him he keeps his head in line with the
weapon in readiness TO strike and his
aim is deadly accurate. ! am no re-
markable shot, but l have killed hum
dreds of rattlesnakes from the back OF
a moving horse, and have never missed
shooting them through the head. The
snakes are equally sure of getting n
bead on the arrows of Indians, hence
the old Indian saying that rattle
snake cannot be missed. The Indians
say, 'Manitou makes the hunters arrow
fatal to the singing snake
Among the readers of this there Will
be many who will be willing TO confirm
all that Laidlaw says. Even though
they make no claims to especially eN-
pert shooting they will tell of how, at
times, they have shot snakes, through
the head in a manner which, to them,
seemed simply unaccountable.

as Chicago's most desperate gunman,
was headed toward the southside un-
derworld, armed for battle. Two 9TH
er prisoners who attempted to escape
with the trio. were captured in the jan
grounds. The escape, carried out in
broad daylight, was the most sensa-
tional in that part Of the country in
many years, and apparently was care
fully planned in advance. 1t was sue
cessful despite the fact that several
jailers refused to heed the threat Of
O'Conner's pistol and risked their
lives in trying to obstruct him. The
two men who escaped with O'Conner
were Edward Darrow, charged with q
$50, 900 robbery. and James La Porte,
alleged to have been implicated in q
$50, 900 robbery. O'Conner had been in
trouble with the police on many 'occa-
sions but his apparent Immunity from
being convicted earned him the title Of

De Valera is still standing in the
waytof the Irish settlement. He will
have nothing but an absolutely free
and independent Ireland, which will ac-
knowledge no recognition of the British
empire or of the king. Sir John Craig
the premier of Ulster is also dissatis-
fed. De Valera, has secured the en-
dorsement of several members of his
cabinet; but the majority of his party
being against him he is seeking To
organize a minority party that Will
continue the fight. Most Of the peo-
pie of Ireland, both the north and the
south seem to look upon the proposed
settlement as entirely satisfactory.

it may see proper. There is nothing
in the agreement that binds any of the
powers to guarantee the claims of any
of the others, and in this particular the
association is different from the Will
son league of nations. It is under
stood that under this settlement Japan
is to accept the 5-5-3 proposal of
Secretary Hughes as to naval strength.
The agreement takes no cognizance Of
matters relating to either the Asiatic
or North American mainland.
