New York.-Wireless toothache, due to the high tension electrical currents produced in sending wireless mes seges. is the latest disease discovered by New York physicians, and it is seld hundreds of wireless operators. professional and amateur, in this city and its neighborhood are sufaering trom t.

When the European physician an nounced the discovery of wireless toothache he was scoffed at by other doctors, who had not studied the ques tion as he bad. The discovery, how ever, Is being regarded seriously on both sides of the Atlantic, and skilled minds are seeking to discover what other ailments may be caused by such high tension currents being loose in the air. It is recalled the X-ray affects the skin and tissues insidiously and often disastrously. Nor is it any secret that persons who are compelled to pass long periods in rooms where big dyna mos are in operation frequently show neurotic tendencies 'Physicians who use the ultra-violet, high tension and other forms of electricity in treatment often suffer neurotic affections. These things indicate, it is suggested, that disease producing qualities lurk in electricity of which little is known as yet. Third rails, live trolley wires, telephone and telegraph wire- and other agencies are discharging into the air constantly currents of elec tricity which pass through persons in the streets and elsewhere, and there are physicians who fear that as the use of electricity increases, wireless telegraphy and telephony get in futall swing, wireless .toothache will be merely one of a long list of nervous diseases directly traceable to excess of electrieity in the atmosphere.

Seattle, Wash.-Folowing the news that ground squirrels caught along the Columbia river were found to be In fested with germs of the bubonic plague, government employes are go ing through farms and ranches poison ing and killing the squirrels by every method yet devised. The ground squirrels of the Pacific slope from southern California to Brit ish Columbia have been found to pos sess the germs of the plague. The lo calities where the germ-laden squir rels have been discovered are yet widely separated, but the federal au thorities are taking no chances with the pests carrying the disease farther away. The squirrels are being poisoned and trapped by the federal employes, who are making every effort to prevent communication of the plague germ to the rats of the cities and towns along the coast. Since embedded in the black wharf rats of the coast cit les the danger of a quick spread of the plague to human beings is almost certain. It is said -by experts that a bite by the ground squirrel or rat in fected by the germs would be sufm clent to transmit the disease to other animals and to human beings. Because of its prevalence in parts of the northwest, farmers who have been employing cats to rid the fields of gophers and squirrels have been warned to keep the cats in, lest they, too, become Infected, making it easy to transmit the disease to the family.

Some astute legislator who wants to put the boarding house vote in his vest pocket can do it by pushing through a bill enforcing the use of the machine shown here which was in vented by a West Virginia man, as a meat grinder that is guaranteed to make a tender morsel of the toughest steak that ever broke a tooth. Two rollers, with teeth on them, do the trick. Beneath them are troughs, with projecting fingers along one edge. and when a piece of meat is run un der these rollers, as a garment is run through a wringer, the iron teeth chew it to such a condition that hu man teeth, even in grandfather's mouth, have no further trouble with it. The rollers are adjustable so that they are not too close to the troughs, other wise the steak would be squeezed so hard that the juice would be pressed out of it. RECIPE FOR FROZEN NOUGAT Rich Dish That Can Be Prepared With the Aid of The Ice Cream Freezer. A rich and beguiling tidbit for the ice cream freezer is prepared in this way: Brown delicately one-half pound shelled, blanched almonds. Add to the nuts one cup sugar and place the vessel containing them on the side of the stove, where the sugar will melt slowly. Then when melted bring the mixture over the fire, but shake the pan con stantly and remove when the caramel has become of a coffee color. No por tion of it should be browner than a cafe au lait shade. Remove from stove and pour on greased plate to cool or on a marble confectionery slab if you own one. When cold pound it to a powder and add this powder to a boiled custard made of the yolks of four eggs and one pint of cream. Freeze. When it becomes stiff open freezer and add the whites of the eggs beaten very stiff with two table spoonfuls of powdered sugar, two ta blespoonfuls of orange juice and the same of pressed pineapple Juice. Repack and let it stand for two or three hours longer, after which it is ready to make the mouth of the veri est ascetic water. A French Pear Dessert. Every Frenchwoman knows the value of combining cooked fruit with cereal for the family dessert. Here is her favorite way of serving pears: Peel, core and cut in halves half a dozen firm pears. Cook them slowly for an hour in a sirup of two cups of water and one of sugar. Meantime boil in a double boiler for about an hour and a half a cupful of rice in two cupfuls of milk, with a small piece of butter and sugar, and vanilla to taste. When the rice is cooked turn it Into a mold. The French cook keeps the rice warm while it is setting in the mold, but it would probably suit the American taste better to place the mold on ice. When ready to serve, turn the rice out on a round dish, and arrange the pears neatly in a border. Pour over them the sifrup in which they have been cooked, flavored, If de sired, with a little rum.

OPERATORS MEET AT ONCE The Dixie Dairymen Demand Higher Prices for Milk in New Orleans. -Heavy Less of Molases. New Orleans.-As a result of the continued activity on the part of the labor leaders who are endeavoring to organize sawmill workers of the South it is probable that a number of pine mills now operating will be ordered closed by the Southern Sawmill Op erators' Association, which met in Chicago for the purpose of discussing the labor situation in the states of Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi, ac cording to a prominent lumber man In New Orleans. Since the labor movement started thirty-one mills, having a capacity of approximately 4,800,000 feet of pine lumber per day, and employing be tween five thousand and seven thous and men,{ have closed. It is predicted that the action of the Chicago meeting will be drastic in the way of closing more mills, and it is expected that the present production will be very materially reduced as a result of the closing down that will be ordered.

Baton Rouge. - The Dixie Dairy men's Association at a meeting here decided not to ship any more milk to New Orleans to the Cloverland Dairy Association unless the New Orleans milk concern agreed to pay 4 1-2 points butter fat during the summer months and five points during the winter months.

Flah and Shrimp Killed by Overflow of Syrup. New Orleans-Dead shrimp by the millions and fish by the thousands are floating about on the waters of Lake Pontchartrain near the bulk heads at the entrance to the new ba sin, as a result of a diet on molases, which found its way in the lake from the city sewers when 600,000 gallons were recently let loose in the streets when a storage tank burst. The mo lasses contained about 2 1-2 per cent potash to the gallon. Unless the tide carries the dead fish away it is pre dicted that the odor will be so great that the residents will be forced to move from the west end. BUSY TIME FOR COMMISSION.

Five Dollar Gold Piece Worth More Than Face Value. New Orleans.--A counterfeit $5 gold piece, which is probably worth more than its "face value," was de tected by Clerk D. J. Ducounce at the New Orleans subtreasury while checking over returns from a local bank. The coin carries the date of 1869, bears the mint mark of "s" and has few imperfections in detail. The probability of its being worth more than $5 is due to the fact that the body of the coin is platinum. School Opens in Warehouse.
