Philadelphia, April 23. rhyslclans, scientists and savanu from nealy all the Important universities and largo cities of the country will take part In a discussion of Important topics dur ing the general meeting of the Ameri can Philosophical association, which was opened here today will extend through tomorrow and Saturday. One of the most Important ad dresses of the meeting,' It Is expected will be that of Dr. E. A. Spltzka. who has chosen for his subject, "Observa tions Regarding the Infliction of the Death Penalty by Electricity." Pr. Spltzka Is a member of the faculty of Jefferson Medical college, an authority on anthropometry, and on mental processes and diseases, and the man who, within 15 minutes after Chester Gillette went to his death In the eelctflc chair at Auburn. N. Y., had removed and made ft scientific, examination of the brain of the young man executed for the drowning of hi tweetheart, firace, or "Hilly" Rrnwn, In Big Moose lake, July 11, 1906. "It was a thorouRhly successful ex ccutlon," said Dr. Spltzka. "Only on9 contact was necessary, and I was en abled to remove and examine the brain between lrt mlnu.i and a quar ter of an hour after the condemned man had been pronounced dead. "So far as the resulting eximlna t;on went, I can safely say that Gil lette's bi n In was thoroughly normal I used the prison scales In weighing It and Its weight was 57 "-j ounces avolr- c.npols, which Is rather heavy and Pif.y be said to place the brain among tie largest sort. It was, at nny rat" that of a typical, healthy American hi l of his age." Dr. Spltzka has made charts and drawings of Gillette's brain and skull which will be exhibited, "you see that It was a falrlv good-sized head. The circumference of the head was 59.1 centimeters. From ear to ear, meas uring over the crown of the head, the distance was 36 centimeters, and the space between the pupils of the eyes 6.2. "Neither of these measurements, or of the others which I made, point toward abnormality. Therefore, us death by tdectilclty does not uffect the train tissues or structure for Imme diate examination, my personal be lief that Chester Gillette was a quite sane and healthy young man." This woman says that after months of Buffering Lydla E. Plnkham'i Vegetable Compound made her as well as ever. Maude E. Forgie, of Leesburg,Va, writes to Mrs. Hnkham : "I want other suffering women to know what Lydla E. Finkham's Vege table Compound has done for me. Fot months I suffered from feminine ills to that I thought I could not live. 1 wrote you, and after taking Lydia E. Plnkham'a Vegetable Compound, and using tle treatment you prescribed J felt like a new woman. 1 1 am now strong, and well as ever, ana thank you ' for the good you have done me."

That there will be complete har mony and co-operation among the re publicans of Oregon in the coming contest over the United States senator ship Is shown by the fact that Senator Fulton has given II.
