NEW YOUK, l-'cb. 2r.--Announre-mcht
wag made, today on llolmlf of the
Hockcfcllcr Institute of the Invention
of an nist-tiiH nnd tluf flteeovci'cy of
n now method of treatment, liotli de
nlKncd to rcducn tho mortality from
tetanun among fcoldlcrs-oumW on
Kuropcan battle fields. Twenty-five
npparatusoe, It was, bald had. already
been sent to Kurope by the institute
nnd patents to tlio Invention hud
been thrown open so that whoever
wished might manufacture and use
the apparatus.
Tile InHtltnte'a Investigators, have
found It wob nald, that most of the
dealliH among wounded men nro duo
to tetanus and that the present meth
od of treating tetanus lias certain
drawbacks.
An Injection of a solution con
taining epsom salts Into the mem
branes of the spinal cord is a part
of the. method of treatment, it is an
nounced. To I)r. K. J. Mctsxer of the
institute, Is given credit for the new
method. The belief Is expressed that
wllh this method of treatment nnd
the use of the new apparatus
which Is designed to aid in artificial
respiration many moro lives will be
saved.

As the proximity of steel ship
alone is sufficient to guarantee a

Canton lias made moie than "00
tusts under all conditions and nays
that he tins never yet failed to score
a hit. The target each time was n
mo oi boat run in xigrng course, but
the torpedo, unclinrged, of course,
never failed to find it.
"(let me the sen room to maneuver

"and 1 could wipe out n great fleet of

The New York or the Cnitcd Stale-

"DON'T GO INTO MOVIES," ADVISES MARGUERITE C0URT0T
ROSEIirnO, Or., Feb. 2.-.. Unable
to realize on securities, which include
large tracts of land in Canada, State
Hank Superintendent Sargent Tues
day afternoon closed tlio doorrf of
the Yoticnlla state bank.
Hargent was accompanied ny a
bank examiner, who" checked up Hie
affairs of the institution preparatory
to filing report with tho comptroller
of (ho eiirrtucy. While it is not
probable tho bank will he able to
liquidate it. iccoiin!, it is under
stood that another bank will probably
bo organized at Youcalla in the near
future. In Mich event, tho deposits

depths. The submarine would be
rendered fiseless in the morn of its
triumph.
Canton declares his torpedo is good
for U'n miles, its gyroscope controll
ing it for eight miles and its electrical
machinery adding two or three more.
Its rate of speed forty knots an
hour is almost doable that of the
first-line battleships and greatly iu
excess of that of the fastest destroy
ers.
In appearance it is hardly different
from the ordinary torjH'do now in um
except Hint it has two arms of nickel
silver attached to each side, project
ing nt right angles. At the end of
these arms are wire magnetic coils.
Upon these magnetic coils hinges th(.
success of the torpedo. A high-frequency
current passes between them,
and prcr-cnce of any great mass of
metal changes the self-induction
which affects the electric relays, and
fhce, in turn. 0cra(c the motor
which controls the ruddor. Thus the
toqn'do will steer for its target and
fidow it, no matter how often the
target changes its course.
(Jyi-oscoic Usoil
The gyroscoe, which keeps the
torpedo on an even keel and on a
straight course, is effective until the
toi'ivodo comes within magnetic range
of a ship. Then it is automatically
cut out, and the torpedo's diving fins
turn to make tlie machine dive deeper
and strike the warship on the un
armorcd portion of the hull.
A warship's plate extends only a
few feet below the water line.
The torpedo carries the regulation
war head with a charge of .'100 or
100 pounds of wet gun co.ton. Its
'first explosion sends it through the
hull into tho ships vitals, ami the
second explosion tears the hull to
pieces. No ship can remain afloat
more than ttu minutes af;er being hit,
the inventor says.
Held in leash by a cable two or
three miles iu length, an unclinrged
torpedo could be used to hunt out
mines mid halt 'over the spot until
tho ship caught up and destroyed
them with shells!

"1 have no doubt that that is so,"
she answered, "though, of course. I
am not the youngest netresn. Not in

robbing the cradle, of its glory.
"I had a little glory of my own,

on. "One of my earliest iccollections
is of winning a protty baby prize.
Since then I have won nine beauty
prizes, nnd have just had the honor
of being choon one of America's

"Ye, thev do, nnd I am always
