A Thrilllag Stery of Rough and Ready Experience in the Iselation ef (the Weeds--The Patient Becevered--Seme of the Comm Methods of Attempt ing te Circumvent Accidents--Danger Due te Distance. Bush surgery has methods peculiar- ly its own. SHfiplicity is its key- note. For a snake bite you cut the Piece out of your leg with your clasp-knife, and continue your jour- ney, says an Australian writer. For a broken rib you tie a string round your waist. For toothache the treat- ment is to press a common knitting needle, heated white hot, against the exposed end of the nerve. The pat- ient is usually held down by two strong men for this operation, and sometimes pursues the operator with a gun for the next two or three days; but provided the knitting needle is used firmly and fearlessly a cure 'is certain, For measles you sit down and smoke until you are well. I have myself nursed a whole family through the scarlet fever, though I knew nothing about the discase, and, indeed, know nothing about it now. For bronchitis you blister the sufferer and turn him out for a week. The theory is all wrong, but it works in practice. People live a long time up country; there aren't many doctors there. I don't say there is any connection, but both are facts. Of course, there are occasionally "regrettable incidents."" If you give cold mutton and apple dumpling to a man recovering from typhoid-- why, he dies, that's all; and if a man tries to cut off his own arm with a handsaw, the chances are he makes a mess of it. Still, as a general thing, you "muddle through somehow." I doubt if we do not know a little more than is good for us about mi- crobes, blood-poisoning, anacsthetics and petty details of that sort. Then the bush itself supplies natural re- medies--'pigweed," for instance, in Queensland, an excellent cure for scurvy--while rapid smoking will to a certain extent take the place of chloroform and decaden pain. Nico- tine is good for centipede bites. What 1 wish to lay stress on is the peculiar danger duc to the enormous distances and the isolation of the bush. You cut a vein in an awk- ward place, and bleed to death be- cause there is no one to tie it up. A slight fracture--even a sprain--pre- vents you reaching home and you die of exposure, thirst, gangrene, or a complication of all three. You may even be pinned down by a falling tree or an injured horse--though quite unharmed yourself--and never get up again. It is quite a custom for this reason for the stockman when on his rounds to keep a look- out for horses, cattle, or sheep "hung up" in the bush and liable to starve to death. Bush-felling is so dangerous. an occupation that in- surance companies do not care to "take the lives" of men about to engage in it. *'Bush madness" and kindred com- plaints, the accidents common to horse-breaking and bush-felling, snake bites (in places), and diseases with an alcoholic origin are the prin- cipal practice of an up-country doc- tor. His surgical experience is limit- ed, and he, therefore, operates on any patient who gives him the slight- est provocation to keep his hand in. Fortunately, the bushman is phleg- matic--I have known a shepherd who had to amputate his own finger with an axe, and give it to the dog at dinner-time to save meat. You will thus understand that things are rough and ready. A young doctor in Queensland not long ago spent sleepless nights for weeks in pulling a patient round, picked a quarrel with him during the convalescent stage, and shot him dead! The above notes will partially ex- plain how I came to assist in the cutting of my friend Mr. Johnson's throat. The scene was a shanty in a gully on the Australian coast, shaded by the customary eucalyptus and watered by tLe inevitable "creck.'"" 'There were three of us, all young cadets--Johnson, the here of the incident, O'Shaughnessy, an Irish gentleman of somewhat reckless disposition, as shall be dis- closed, and myself. Johnson, to gain some private ends, got diphtheria. As we were at the fag-end of creation a doctor's foe would have been several hundred pounds by the time he -got there, and Johnson would probably have been dead long before. My only medical knowledge was a slight acquaintance with "the extraction of tooth, and this was of little use for diphtheria. O'Shaughnessy, how- ever, had some experience of the disease, or said he had, and immedi- ately proceeded to "do so." So much so that one night John- son was gasping for wind, and at the point of death. "What's to be done?" I asked O'Shaughnessy, who had just come in.

"Then I'll do it myself," declared O'Shaughnessy. , All told, the surgical instruments fn the shanty were--a handsaw, » penknife, prad-awl and a shep- bherd's knife (a large weapon com- monly used for, skinning sheep). O'Shaughnessy dragged them out. and : toyed with them in front of Johnson, whd eyed them between his gasps with some anxiety. We rattled them over together noisily, and soon decided on the penknife.

But he was now getting purple, and there was no time for calculating chances. O'Shaughnessy came back and put a final edge on the pen- Knife. We propped Johnson against some rugs and turned a strong light on his throat. It began to Teel a little ghastly. The Southern Cross shone weirdly through the open window--at least I suppose it did, though I had lived several years at the Antipodes be- fore I could make out the Southern Cross at all. I had never felt so creepy since I accepted the invita- tion of the sword-swallower at a circus to push the sword down his throat. 1 had killed hundreds of sheep and cattle in the ordinary way of business without a thought --an operation which sometimes caused the new chum to faint--put everything is a matter of custom. The most reckless rough-rider will be an abject coward in a gale at sea; the daredevil V, C. puts up the white flag and surrenders unconditionally when it comes to making an after- dinner speech or getting married. "It's quite painless, you know, Johnson," I observed, not that I knew anything about it, but I thought it was the professional thing to say. '"Whereabouts do I go for him?" said O'Shaughnessy, brandishing the knife in front of Johnson, who groan=- ed, "In here's quite safe, isn't it?" "Hardly, 1 answered--'rather near the jugular!"

"We shall be tried for manslaught- er if it's a--a failure, won't we?' ""Ah! I hadn't thought of that,"' I said--the sufferer apparently had, for he gasped freely, 'Law's a tricky thing." "Ah, 'I remember now-just under the apple of the throat!' exclaimed O'Shaughnessy, recalling his one picce of knowledge about the opera- tion. The whole thing turned out simple enough in practice. I held my breath as O"Shwughnessy, after fumbling about with the knife as if he were going to carve a fowl, thrust it through the skin under the "Adam's apple," fished out the butt end of the severed larynx and covered it with a handkerchief with a vague idea of keeping out microbes, but in reality this did some good in protecting it from dust.

By a thousand-to-one chance a doctor passed the shanty next day, and he finished the job. Johnson recovered. He thanked us cordially for so kindly cutting his throat, although his manner led us to believe that he would never be operated on by an amateur again. But every. deed of daring has its risks, and one can face them with so much calmer courage when the risks are taken by somebody else! ------ The Hardest Pain To Endure.

JAMES MOORE, OF BRITISH COLUMBIA. The Discovery of Placer Gold in the Pa- cific Prevince--Large Prospect From the Washing of a Pan of Moss--Later the Discovery of the Richest Bar Ever Discovered on the Fraser River. At the recent mining convention in British Columbia Mr. James Moore, the pioneer miner of B. ©, and a delegate from the Cariboo, told the story of the discovery of gold in the country. He said, in part: When I first entered the Fras- er River, with a few associates, all we found in this Province were three Hudson's Bay trading posts and a number of Siwashes. That was the whole population of the part called at that time New Calodonia. - I shall speak of this Province in future as British Columbia, as the Province was a Crown colony after we dis- covered placer mines on the Fraser River. In ascending the river wo camped one evening on a bar to cook lunch, when one of my as sociates noticed particles of gold in the moss which was growing on the rocks on the bar. Hé¢ washed a pan of this mos# and got a large. pros pect. After our gastrononine needs were satisfied, wo all went prospect ing and discovered a rich bar; in fact, sir, the richest bar ever dis- covered in the Fraser River or its We named the bar in honor of my associate, who washed the first pan of moss, "Hill's Bar." I wish it distinctly understood that we do not claim to be the first discoverers of gold--as gold was dis- covered the year before in small quantities by Indians on the Thomp- son River--but whey we located this | mine we laid the Joundation-stone of mining in British Columbia. I may go a little further and say that we laid the foundation-stone of British Columbia, and I am proud to have the honor of stating upon the floor of this convention that I helped to lay that foundation-stone. I am the | only one left of the party that dis- covered those first placer mines on "Hill's Bar,"" as my associates have crossed the 'great divide." I trust they have struck it rich, and I hope they have a place for me when I join them, When 1 was in Victoria last winter I met a gentleman, a Mr, Ladd, who told me that he now owns Hill's Bar, in the Fraser River, near Yale, as a mining proposition. He esti- mates the amount of gold already recovered from that bar to be ap- proximately two million dollars, ut, sir, in those days, no matter how rich a camp we discovered, we could not remain long in one camp. We had to explore, and I am still of the same disposition, and will not remain long in one camp to-day, but will proceed into the interior, But, sir, before I do so, I would like to say that after mines and the great rush to the Fraser River commenced the river was then at high water, and as Yale was the head of the steamboat navi- How we should have | gation, it was also for small boats during its high stage until such time as the river fell to low water. You must remember in those days there were no railroads, wagon roads, nor pack trails. We had only an In- | dian trail along the great canyon of | the Fraser, and the large chasms were spanned by poles tied with twisted willows, from which we could look down several hundred feet to the mighty Fraser rushing below. We had to cross these bridges with our packs on or turn back; but, 1 assure you, sir, that we did not know what those words meant. Our motto was, "Upwards and on- wards." In the fall and early spring, when the river was at its lowest stage, we were enabled to take up boats laden with provisions from Yale to Lytton, through the canyon of the Fraser. When we got to Lytton some of the party con- tinued up the river in the boats and discovered other large bars. Others of our party, myself included, got the horses and started inland and discovered the Horsefly country and located what was then known as the celebrated "Blue Iead Claim." I paid the Horsefly a visit 40 years after our discovery in 1859, and paid a visit to the old discovery claim, and found the company was still working that claim. The fore- man of the company showed me a pan of gravel he recovered a few days before but not yet washed, It looked to me to be almost as much in gold as gravel in the pan. I could not help noticing the contrast between the present mode of work- ing, which is by hydraulic elevators, the camp being now lit up with elec- tricity, and our crude mode of work- ing 10 years before with rockers and camp lit up by camp fires. Dut, ir, we were able to declare a divid- every night of about £100 per In the next year, 1860, we discovered Duck, Keithley, Goose, Iarvey, Snowshoe Crock, and in 1861 we discovered the richest eroeks in - Cariboo, - namely, Williams, Lightning and Lowhee, Grouse and other creeks, and some of the claims fabulously rich, I will just state one claim, for example, the piller ciaim on William's Creek, where two men were working on the face of a drift with picks. They took out by 24 hours' work 204 pounds of gold Avoirdupois, and this figured into Troy ounces at $106 por outice would be something like $47 .- 000. Dut shallow placer mines do not last forever, they are soon worked out. There arc a few yot that will last for some time, but not enough to make a prosperous mining camp. In speaking of these shallow placers, I do not speak of the Atlin district. We have in the interior of Dritish Columbia a vast area of great alluvial deposits of auriforous gravels which have been lying dormant for centuries. These deposits are not confined to any one distriet, but we can find them in Yale, Lillooet, Cariboo, Omenica, Cassar in three different classes, ---------------- were A man who comes home pt three o'clock in the morning and tries to get in the hat rack for the wine closet | deserves sympathy, but he never gets we discovered.
