New York Surgeon. Declares, He
Has Found a Fluid Whfch v
Will Cure Auv Disease.
New York, Aug. 31. After sev
en years of experimenting Doctor!
Wilfred G. Fralick, visiting sur
geon of the Metropolitan Hospital,
fit, his p.linir. in thnt. institntinn n
nounces publicly that he has per-
tected a fluid winch, if exhaustive U1 '"'"'" iushib mm ui uicm
tests bear out the claims made for fonr were ki,,t;d outright and one
it, is the long-sought panacea for
all the ills that beset maiikiutl,
with particular reference to tuber-
culosis.
Before a representative gather-
nit; of prominent men Doctor
Fralick demonstrated his method'
of using the medicine upon two pa-
tients, both sufferers from tuber
culosis. Making an incision in the
arms of the patients, the surgeon
it. fused sixteen ounces of the liquid
iu the veins of each, describing
each successive step and then not
iug the graduated effects upon the
subject.
Tnis is declared to be the first
tune that infusion has been prac
ticed. Heretofore the treatment has
been either internal or by injection.
For several years the doctor, who
confines his practice strictly to
surgery, continued his experi
ments, using various elements,
singly and in combination. About
a year ago he formed a combina
tion which answered all his re
quirements. "There is no known
disease germ which this fluid will
not almost instantly destroy,"
Doctor Fralick declared to-night.
"I have tested its effect upon many
cultures of widely varying bacilli
and without a single exception the
fluid proved efficacious
"Furthermore, and of eminlk
ereat important, while the work-
of antagonizing disease germs goes
on the fluid acts also as a curative
assent. Through ifs npimlim- nmn.
erties it enriches and increases the,
blood qualifies and thereby pre-
eludes the possibility of new bac
teriological life, since this cannot
exist under normal conditions."
While its effect upon the germ
of tuberculosis is engaging the im
mediate attention of Doctor Fralick
and his associates, the fluid has
demonstrated its efficaciousness
with regard to bacteria of other
diseases. In fact, Dr. Fraliuk de-
c'ares that the germ of yellow fev
er seems even more susceptible
than does the tuberculin organism.

LIGHTNING'S WORK.
Five Men Killed and Several In
jured Near San Diego.
Corpus Christi, Tex., Sept. 3
During a heavy thunder and rain
storm at aud around San Diego
last night a jncal located on the
Panaveis Ranch about seven miles
south of the town was struck bv
lightning and almost completely
demolished. There were a nnmber
totally. burned
' Also, about the same hour only
t,,rB tuiles uearer the town another
juucii whs sli uok hi wuicn were iwo
Mexicans one of whom was killed
nnA the other badly injured.
At this hour full particulars are
ll0t obtainable, but the death of
five and the fatal wounding of two
others as above mentioned has been
fully verified.
T.he storm raged with great "fury
out a few miles from San Diego,
but these are the only casualties
that so far have been reported
in the town of San Diego it
mined havily but no damage re
suited from the wind.
Butchers to Enorce
Sunday Law.
NewYork, Aug. 31. The but
chers of New York are determined
that the new State law prohibiting
the sale or delivery of meats on
iMinday shall be enforced. To this
end an army of 2,700 men, all op
posed to Sunday labor and all eager
to aid in carrying out the provis
ions of the law, will patrol the city
to-morrow. It will be the largest
army ever organized in any city
for such a purpose, and will be
under the direction of the Bench-
man's Association of Retail Bnt-
c,iers representing 36,000 men
emP,oyed in butcher shops in this
cit'- The butchers came to the
conclusion that the most effective
,nenns the' conh adoot t0 compel
th stoppage of the sale and deliv
ery or meat on the day they believ
ed belonged to themselves for rest
and recreation was to create a
sort of vigilance committee of
their own. The citv has been divid
ed into districts and captains ap

A Fire Caused By Sea.
Fancy the waves of the sea set
ting fire to the cliffs they break on
Yet this is what did really happen
on the western coast of Ireland.
The rocks which the great At
lantic tollers had for centnries
been slowly breaking 'down and
piercingwith great caverns con
tain in their depths masses of iron
pyrites and alum, and when at
last the water penetrated to these,
rapid oxidation took placej which
produced a heat fierce enough to
set the whole cliff on fire.
For weeks the rocks burnt like
a regular volcano, and great clouds
of smoke and vapor rose high in
the air. .
When at last the fire died out,
great masses of lava and clay.burnt
to brick, were seen in every direct
ion. Unique Monthly.
AJfew Artificial leather.
Ltbleum, a new artificial leath
er, invented by a Frenchman in
Germany consists of pieces of re
fuse skins and hides, cat exceed
ingly small, which are pnt into a
vat filled with an intensely alkaline
solution. After the mas has be-
Icome pulpy, it is .taken out ard
placed in a specially constructed
machine, and after undergoing
treatment therein, is again taken
out and put throngh a paper-making
machine. The resultiug paper
like snbstance is cut into large
sheets, which are laid one npon
another, in piles of from 100 to
1,000, and put iuto a hydraulic
press to remove all moistnre. The
article is strong and pliable, and
can be pressed or molded into ail
kinds of shapes and patterns. It
is said to make the best kind 'of
wall paper. Decorators wko hare
used this at tide speak of it in the
highest terns.
