REEVES dead" Patient
With Heart Massage

Baltimore, Md.-His heart without

David E. Kaufman of York, Pa, was
given up for dead at the Volunteers
Of America hospital.
Except for the fact that the mans
body still was warm, DR.. John w.
Graham, resident physician, felt GER
tain that life was extinct. He had
applied every practical test without
detecting any sign Of life. And yet
he was not satisfied. He began to
massage the heart and to apply ar
tificial respiration. After two minutes
the man started to breathe and his
heart resumed beating. Doctor Ora
ham said that the case was the most
remarkable in his career as a physi-
clan. He put the patient to bed and
pronounced his condition favorable.

CITY THROVE ON
SEAL. POACHING
Once Bustling Aleutian Me-
tropolis, Now Slumbers.

Seattle.-Dutch Harbor, in the Aleu-
rendezvous of four nations, is like a
dead city.
Before the fur treaty was signed by
the United States, England, Russia
and Japan in 1911, Dutch Harbor was
an outpost of intrigue. In 1898, when
seal poaching was at its peak, Amer
lea maintained five cutters and four
gunboats there, while the British had
three gunboats, the japanese and Rus
slams several war vessels.
Daring poachers roamed the seas.
Probably the best known was Alec
MacLean, the Wolf Larson of Jack
London's "Sea Wolf" His last trip to
the Arctic was made on the Schooner
Comaneita, vessel masquerading I'M
der forged Mexican papers.
One Of his best known exploits was
when he eluded a pursuing cutter and
anchored two barrels of sealskins to a
buoy. Later he returned and picked
them up.
In 1911 all governments involved in
the seal industries agreed to handle
the killings themselves Guards were
stationed at the rookaries and sealing
at-sea was made unlawful This treaty
was drawn to run 10 years. The pact
is expected to be renewed next year.
At present the entire patrol is car
ried on by four American coast-guard
cutters
Meanwhile Dutch Harbor, nestled
among the island mountains, slumbers.

Andersonville Prison
Spring Keeps Up Flow.

Atlanta, Ga.-Georgia and the
southland are recovering from
drought of unprecedented severity.
Many streams and water sources dried
up, and all records for aridity were
broken, but through it all a stream
of water continued to flow from the
side Of beautifully foliaged hill on
which. some sixty years ago. was To-
Gated the Andersonville military
prison of the Confederate army.
This is providence spring" Local
history has it that in the closing days
of the war between the states, that
section suffered from the effects of
drought which dried up the wells,
leaving no water supply for the thou
sands Of federal prisoners of war.
These conditions existed for days
while the men, in their delirium, mad
ly scratched holes in the ground with
their bare hands in the attempt to
strike water. Finally, too weary and
exhausted to put forth more physical
effort, it is recounted they dropped to
their knees and prayed God to send
them relief
While they were still praying, the
legend says. a bolt of lightning struck
the hillside, and fountain of spar
king water gushed forth.
The fountain has been housed in an
ornate work of masonry, in which is
inserted a bronze tablet identifying 1t
as providence spring." and relating
the above story.
Adjoining the camp is Anderson
vile National cemetery, covering an
area of 100 acres and where rest
nearly $4,000 of the boys in blue"
who succumbed to the ravishes of the

Parachutes to Garry
Air-Mail to Ground

Paris.--"Mail from the sky" is to be
reality for the towns along the
Paris London air route The machines
in this service are being fitted with
machinery for dropping parachutes to
which mail bags are attached.
The pilots will drop the mail by pull
ing a lever, just as a bomb is released
from war plane. The bag will drop
plummet-like until about 300 feet
above the ground, when the parachute
will open and float gently toward the
waiting postman.
Pilots are expected to release their
mail consignment so as to land the
parachutes as near as possible to given
receiving places.
