Artificial Pupils for the Eye. Cincinnati Enquirer. A doctor of Cincinnati has performed two operations on a patient's eyei that are considered marvelous by those who have a knowlege of the-subject. The patient's name is Mary -Margaref Reardon. She is 11 years old, and has been almost totally blitid since birth, being afflicted with what is-known as congenital Cataracts. The center of each pupil had a cataract, and, as her mother said she could not distinguish a horse or a cow from a train ot cars. Tuesday last the doctor made an operation on the left eye. He did not attempt to remove the cataract^ but made ait incision in. the lower part ot the eye and formed a new pupil. He then bandaged the eye. and foand later that in had entirely healed up without inflammation. He therefore repeated the operation on the left eye. Tne little girl, who had a fine, intelligent face, and pretty golden hair, was startled when the bandage was removed Saturday morning from the first eye operated on, and declared that things lbokea strange to her. She took no an testhetic while the operation was per formed, and never fllifehed or cried. By the •peration two artificial pupils for the eye are'formed.

A recent traveler in Spain tells how the children in Granada played at bullfighting. One boy, holding a pair of wooden horns on his head, represented the bull.

The bull would stamp his feet and roar, then make a rush at one of thei chulos, whose jacket was thrown np by the wooden horns, but whose tody was never touehed. Then the bull .would charge oaeof the picadors, whereupon the boy playing horse woald th.ow himself to the ground, and allow himself to he'properly gorged.

NATURAL GAS..

•^sW'g- •JV'

id TmSirittTble Baservoir ef Hydro(en or Water G«s Baimd to Kxist la This State. :r' Indianapolis News.

There is an epidemic of natural gas talk. The fever has extended to Indiana* and every day or so some one reports a discovery of gas on Boosier soil. Much controversy exists as to whether the saply will be permanent and ample for mating wad illuminating purposes. It is even a question in Pennsylvania whether the gas wells are to be depended upon for an indefinite period. Even scientific men disagree on this and kindred topics. There are those in this community whose inquiry into these interesting and important questions qualify them to speak adversely. No man in the west, perhaps, has a more practical acquaintance with geology ana kindred topics than Dr. Byland T. Brown. To him a reporter applied for some views touching the natursa gas controversy. In a general way he states, by w?y of preface, that the permanency of a supply of natural gas depends upon its source. For instance, if the gas be the result of the decomposition of a small quantity of organic matter, the supply will soon be exhausted -T if from a great quantity it may be practically inexhaustible if the gas be what is called "water

as," it may be expected to flow forever. way of preliminary, let it be stated also that the natural gas is of two kinds: Hydrogen gas{ which is a fine fael, bat not an illuminator and hydro-carbon gas, like the manufactured gas, used chiefly for illuminating purposes. Not to quote literally, but substantially, Professor Brown said "It was once thought that all natural gas wss fire damp from coal, the gas of organic substances, but this theory is now disproved from the fact that hydrogen gas is being obtained from below the coal measures. The latest suggestion as that this gas is^the result of the decomposition of water. This is a practical way of manufacturing gas, and a factory is in operation in New York. The method is simple. Super-heated steam brought in contact with any mineral or metal, that will oxidize loses its oxygen, and the hydrogen thus freed may be collected in reservoirs and used as required. Now, the gas that issues from many wells is almost pureliydrogen, identical in chemical composition with the 'water gas' described above. The theory, therefore, is that in descending toward the heated center of the earth a point must be reached where the water of the surface rests upon the elostic force of steam. This steam coming into contact with minerals loses its oxygen, and the hydrogen, -of course, ascends. Peep borings below the coal no doubt tap this supply of hvdrogen gas. This theory has yet to. be demonstrated, but I do not know how else we can rationally account for the existence of this gas down below where there is any organic matter." "If this theory is a correct one, hatnra

ss may be found beneath the surface of or anywhere?" "Ye«, and we are soon to know whether the theory is to be depended upon. W. C. DePauw' is making a test He is boring near New Albany, and if neces saryheaillgo down 5,000 feet. If he reaches the source of natural water-gas it will furnish an inexhaustible supply foreVer and he will solve the fuel question for all time. The supply can be reached from any point on the surface if one goes deep enough, and with a diamond drill we can go to any depth." "Is there «ny hydro-carbon or illuminating^ natural gas in Indiana?" "Yes: but we de not get it in any large supply because we have no reservoirs. Our rocks have not been distributed by mountain upheavals, as in Pennsylvania, and no great caverns beneath where oil and gas collect have been formed, as there. Becently Amos Butler, of Brookville, made a report of a discovery* of natural gas in the Whitewater valley. A well seventy feet was dug, and gas was found below a stream of blue clay. Below the clay a deposit of logs and brush was found. I concur wiui Mr. Butler that the gas there discovered was the result of the decomposition of this vegetable matter. The clay would hot allow the gas to escape, ana there it has been collecting for thousands of years. The gas is inflammable, and the supply is proportionate to the amount of the vegetable deposit. "Such gas wells sooner or later blow out. There was one such in Vermillion county and another in Fountain. I saw this last named when it fed a jet of flame from a half-mile pipe, twenty feet high. It came from coal and made a fine light and sn intense heat The pressme of the gas' was so strong that combustion did not take place within two feet of the end of the pipe. The flow, however, did not last six months. As a rule, it may be said that this hydro-Carbon gas comes from pomparatively shallow wells, and the supply is entirely dependent on the fuel which is its source. We can obtain kerosene by distilling coal, and one ton of block coal contains from thirty to forty gallons of oil. This accounts for the origin of the name, "coal oi^." The gas from the coal oil natnrally made in the interior of eaith ia therefore a source of the natural gas wells and, as I said before, this supply must be large and then most be some large reservoir in Which it may be collected Before it can reasonably be expected that- the well will be of any permanence."

Boys will stay on a farm just as well as anywhere, if they receive decent treatment at home, lie boy that is yanked out of bed by the hair, kieked oat to milk and cuffed in to breakfast, as a preliminary to being popped through the field all day, is dot likely to be consumed by his love for tbe glories of agriculture—not for his sire.

KNIGHTSTOWN INSTITUTIONS

Aaaaal Kepfcti^r tb^italdUifejs* Home afad A*yiam foi9eehle-Mlad»d The seventh annual reports tf the bosrd of trustees and officials of the In diana Soldiers' Orphans' Home and Asy lam for Feeble-Minded, Children^ neer Knightstownj have been submitted to Governor Gray. It speaks in very complimentary terms of the superintendency of Professor Morris, characterising him as "the right man in the right place." There are 144 inmates of the home, all orphans of deceased soldiers, and 104 in mates of the Asylum for FsebleMinded Children, and the inmates of the two institutions are as much separated as is possible. The orphan schools are taught byMiss Susan Ray Wilson, Miss Marjjaret Weakley and Miss Laura Wadsetter, and the asylum schools byMiss BsHha Moore, Miss Mary F. Wilson^and Miss Nancy Platts, and both are prosperous and well conducted. The sanitary condition of the institatieu is remarkably good. The report adds that many improvements are needed at the institution, but as the current appropriation is barely enough to meet expenses and a legacy of. debt was turned over to the present administration, the board do not favor any additional expenditures at this time.

J. H. Davis, in his report, shows that tire gross receipts of the institution from March to November were $13,661.56, of which $13,337.32 was from the legislative appropriation, and the expenditures were $13,553.61, leavings balance on hand of $8.25. Of the asylum the receipts were $8,947.55 and the disbursements $8,' 398 87, leaving a balance of $548.68.

The report of Superintendent Morris shows that, including inmates and employes, there are 159 people at the home. There has beeil but one death during the year, and that was due to an unavoidable accident. The total expenses of the institution for the vear was $20,563.09, aifd as this exceeded the legislative ap pronation by $563.06, that amount was borrowed from the current repair fund.

There are 107 inmates in the asylum department and the total expenditures for the year were $13,245.65, with a balance on hand of $108.10. Accompanying these reports were the minor reports of officers and employes, showing in detail the operations of the institutions and their present condition, which is reported to be very satisfactory in every respect.

Graduate from two 6t the best medical oollegee in this country, attendant of Bellvne hospital, Blackwell Island hospital, Woman hospital and oat-door poor department New Xork oifcy late physieiui to the Detroit Head, Throat and Long institute, has opened a permanent office oppoeite postoffioe, on Sixth street, Terre Haute, for the cure of all the various diseases ef the head, throat, chest and diseases of woman, old and young. In the treatment of catarrh, throat diseases, asthma, bronohitis and consumption and loes of voice, we adopt the most improved system of in* halation and other appliances whioh being tbe remedies into direct contaot with the organs diseased. It is reliable, certain, direct and permanentin its effects. It is conceded by all to bo the only system by which those diseases can kg. cured. No other system of practice has ever cured in the past by dosing the stomaoh and I cannot believe it will core in the future. A single application gives immediate' comfort and relieves at once the moet painful symptoms I care not how bad you are suffering. A single application will oonvinoe the moet skeptical that this is the true mode of treatment. -t

Try Our Treatment

Improvement is seen and felt from the first day of treatment in eve*y case.

CATARRH

That loathsome and disgusting malady with its multiplicity of symptons. A few of the symptoms: Constant Mowing the nose, hawking and spitting, rasping the throat, and windpipe to get rid of mucus, sucking and drawing down the palate to get rid ot mucus from tbe palate and nose, voice muffled and assumes a nasal character, always oomplaining of cold In the head, the breath tainted, in some asaumes a siocening ordor, often prevents yonng people from society, poiu between the eyes, the stomach and blood suffers from" swallowing the mucus from the throet and nose whidh runs down while you are sleeping, appel poor in the mbming. There is ne disease that so feeds lung trouble as catarrh of which catarrh alone is tbe exciting cause. Unless you get rid of the diseased condition of your throat and catarrh, your lungs will soon be come afflicted. In every case of catarrh a eQre is warranted. In consequence of the many professional humbugs passing through the oountry under the name of doctors, I have ooneluded to give consultation and examination free. Thousands ot testimonials at the office.
