ROENTGEN RAYS. YIm Fl mt Practical Demonstration In the Wnt by n Perfectly Appointed Apparntni In the Hands of a Prominent SC Lonli Surgeon. St. I oris, July 4.—A practical demonstrati) >n of the value of the Roentgen rays as an aid to surgery was given Thursday 'evening by Dr. Heber Robar ;s at his private hospital in this city,'a number of interesting experiments being made in the presence of a party of invited guests, including sev^ eral of the newspaper fraternity. Dr. tobarts enjoys the distinction of having • the first complete apparatus to reach ihe west, and is correspondingly enthusiastic over the grand possibilities o:fered by it as an adjunct to his chosen profession, not alone as a source of peisbnal profit, but as offering a boon to those who. by reason of misfortune, are compelled to invoke the skill of a surgeon, whose work, by its aid, will be brought much more nearly to the plane of an exact science than has been heretofore possible with only the aid of knowledge of physiology and a aatomy backed by clinical practice. ,4 Fro:,a an unscientific standpoint tho demon strations presented were of more than passing interest; they were un canny, startling. It is one thing to scan illustrations of effects produced by the X rays and to read learned and technical treatises in explanation, but it is an entirely different matter when one, with the aid of the rays and the Edison fluroscope, sees his own skeleton—or a- portion thereof; sees objects through two inched

I of intervening' wood, or£witnesses the taking Of a perfect photograph of the interior of a portion of the human form without the aid of camera or lens, and through several thicknesses of clothing, besides the casing of the I sensitized plate; or, by the aid of the fluroscope. to look entirely through the human body. These things, however, the doctor's guests were euabled to do, and all were agreed that the demonstrations were not only wonderful, but that the time had come j when botch work in surgery would have to give place to the certain and seieutitic results which the X rays make possible of attainment. Dr. Robarts was congratulate ! on his having been the 'first to bring the apparatus to St. Louis, and those who had the pleasure of witnessing his experiments are certainly to be congratulated upon beingamong the first in the western country to witness a practical demonstration of the possibilities of the Roentgen rays i given from a Crook's tube and alsorthe value of the Edison fluroscope as an adjunct. WHOLESOME TRUTHS ■- J$ Forced Upon Unwilling; Lari ait the Fa i neral of; the Dead Striker William KeltK*r. [ Cleveland, 0., July 5.—The funeral j of William Rettger, the striker killed at the Brown hoisting works, was the ; most imposing funeral pageant ever given a laboring man in Cleveland, j There has been but one occasion when there was a “larger procession and i greater crowds. The funeral of Gar- ^ field. To-day,, by actual count, 1,300 men formed the funeral cortege. The i funeral services were held in the Church of the Immaculate Conception. | A conservative estimate places the , number of spectators about the church i and along the line of march to the cemetery at 100,000. The procession | moved quietly, and, save for the dirges played by the many bands, no sound ■ save the tread of feet, broke'the quiet, j The white casket in which reposed i ■ the remains was literally buried in ! flowers. Mgr. Thorpe, in the course j

of ms sermon, said: "Human passion is strange, ahd the j lesson to-day teaches that we many i times go beyond our strength, and ] that there is no way to reason against I human passion. The lesson we must ] learn to-day is ,that in society j there are two classes, capitalist and j wage-earners. Next to capital there 1 is the strong right arm of labor. One ; cannot exist without the othen The ] capitalist has a right to manage his ' capital, lie has the right under the ; lays of the state- and nation. He makes hazardous ventures, and on ac- ; count of the risks in business has j the right to do as he chooses. He may | abuse that right and forget God in his j enjoyment of his riches. If he does, i there is a remedy, but it does not lie ' in passion or violence. The remedy is 1 | public sentiment and the law. There is another class, not banded together j as you are. They have their individ- j ual rights and those who administer : the law must protect them. Seenes have been enacted during the past: week which should never have occurred. These men who have become I victims of your hate have rights un- j der the law.*’ He continued at some length to score ' the strikers for the scenes of violence.; After the funeral the sermon was; roundly denounced by many. Th.e troops are still under arms and j grave trouble may yet ensue. Amne sty Offered, the Cretan*. Cask a. Crete, July 4.—Berovitch | Georgi Pasha, prince of Samos, the j newly-appointed Christian governor of j Crete, has issued a proclamation on | behalf of the sultan, offering amnesty to all insurgents who will lay down ! their arms and return to peaceful pursuits. jsnd inviting the national as* | sembly to formulate a statement ol! the desires of the people. AN OHIO TRAGEDY. Mrs. Wm. Brnder Found with Her Throat Cut. Sear Cincinnati. CtxcixXATl, July 4.—Mrs. Wm.
