A Good Thing for Those En Dairy Business. A despatch from Ottawa says â€"AIrâ€" rangements have been made with the Canadian â€" Pacific Railway Company for the running of refrigerator cars for butter to Montreal on terms simâ€" ilar to those which were agreed upon last season. In Ontario, a car will leave Teeswater and Owen Bound once a fortâ€" night, picking up butter at stations beâ€" tween those points and Toronto, where the shipments will be consolidated inâ€" to a through car for Montreal. At staâ€" tions between Toronto and Montreal }butter will be picked up en route. It the shipments will be consolidated inâ€" to a through car for Montreal. At staâ€" tions between Toronto and Montreal butter will be picked up en route. It is expected that similar arrangements will be made with the Grand Trunk Railway for cars over its lines. The cars will be iced as frequently as is necessary to: keep the butter cool throughout the whole g’ourne'y. Parâ€" ticulars as to the exact time when these refrigerator cars will leave the stations en route to Montreal may be obtained from the railway agents. The arrangements are that shippers of butter by these cars and routes will be charged the usual * less than carâ€" load rates," without any charge for the icing or the special service, which are to be provided for by the Government. As far as -iaoe will permit, merchants may use these cars for shipment of dairy or creamery butter â€" between points at which cars touch.

From time to time fragâ€" mentary accounts of sporadio experiâ€" ments at London hospitals have been published, but at King‘s College Hosâ€" pital, the home of the allâ€"conquering antiseptic surgery, the new photography has for some time been used as an Auxâ€" iliary in clinical work. By special perâ€" mission of the Warden, the Rev. N.

But if it be thought advisable to take & photograph, the developing only reâ€" quires a very short time.

The value of the invenâ€" tion has been illustrated in the case, inter alia, of a dislocated thumb, the negative showing that had the thumb been longer neglected it would have become useless. T« Cha innnvant the Anknown is alâ€" become useless. & To the ignorant the unknown is alâ€" ways terrible, and the mere process of photogr?hing, with the glowing green glasa and the flying electric sparks, was oo much for one female patient in our representative‘s presence, agd fhf' sobâ€" ks ced alare a in. se ie s C s e pe c es . bed and shook as though about to unâ€" | dergo a major 01petation; and it was only with difficulty and the exercise of patience that she could be induced to | place her needle ridden hand in the proâ€" per position. s ‘ But, as has been said, dealing with | hands or feet is comparatively simple. It is the more complex cases that are the more interesting. One of these, at which our representatives | " assisted," was that of an old man with a paintul‘ hip. He had met with an accident, and was convinced that he was sufferin‘%! from dislocation im(Properly treated. The surgeon at once iagnosed the comâ€" plaint as what is commonly called rheuâ€" matic gout, but to satisfy the sufferer the joint was photograghed. Laid on his back on a couch, with the plate unâ€" derneath the affected part, it called for little or no effort to stay still in one position, for 20 minutes. That length of exposure was deemed necessary, 4$ the subject was a big man, and the X rays had to penetrate a considerable thickness of filesh. It may be remarkâ€" ed in passing that one of the difficulâ€" ties of the process is to know THE EXACT AMOUNT € of exposure required. If the plate be | © exposed too long, the rays £0 through | bones and all, and the result is chaos and old night. In the case under reâ€"| tiew, precisely the ri%bt exposure was 1 allowed and an excellent negative obâ€"| | tained, which cenclusively corroborated I the diagnosis. Nothing remained for the | / sufferer, therefore, but to possess his | soul in patience, and to grin and bear | | his pain ; but he had, at any rate, the | slight consolation of knowing ten minâ€"|â€" utes after the photograph had been taken that there was no ground for his pyevious fears. This and other ounsul-‘ tations took Elace in a room, which serves the double purpose of studio and dark room,«but while our representaâ€" tive remained at the hos%it.al a number of cases were taken in the wards. The whole apparatus, which consists of the allâ€"important Crooke‘s tube (of the type specially designed by Mr. Herâ€" bert Jackson of King‘s College), and a vise in which to hold it, the accumulatâ€" or, the induction coil, and the plates weigh under 2 cwt. and is wheeled to the bedside on an India rubberâ€"tired trolley, everything being got ready in a few seconds. The process causes very little disturbance in . the wards. The noise of the coil, with its hammer beatâ€" ing and miniature thunder, is inconsidâ€" erable, and the whole agerat'mn eviâ€" dently affords an agreeable break, to the monotony of ward life. The first case in the wards was that bf a boy whe had just come in to the hospital with a swollen knee.

Yarrow & Co., of Lonâ€" don, a torpedo boat destroyer which differs from vessels of this class built for the British navy chiefly in respect of being armored. The boat is one of four similar vessels now in course of construction. Her length over all is 190 feet 8 Anches, her breadth 19 feet 6 . inches, and her depth amidships 12 feet. With a draught of 5 feet the displacement will be about 250 tons. The armament comprises on 18â€"inch tropedo tube, built into the stem for bow fire, and two 18â€"inch swivel torâ€" pedo tubes on deck aft. The latter command both sides of the vessel. There will be a 14â€"pounder quickâ€"firing gun mounted on the conning tower forâ€" ward, â€" three 6â€"pounder â€" quickâ€"firing guns on the deck aft, and two Maxim automatic guns just abaft the connâ€" ing tower, one being on either side. automatic guns just abaft the connâ€" ing tower, one being on either side. The policy of armoring these small craft has been a good deal discussed lately, the interest in the subject havyâ€" ing been revived by. some operations during the late war in the East. About eleven ‘i'ears ago Messrs. Yarrow & Co. built for the Japanese _ Governâ€" ment a small vessel, the Kotaka, which was protected b{ armor, and was, we believe, the firs hiqh-sg:ed armored torpedo craft. It will remembered that during the late war the Kotaka led two important torpedo attacks, and came through comparatively unbarmâ€" ed, while the unarmored boats suffered severely. The 1prioe paid by armor is, of course, loss of speed, but the Argenâ€" tine naval authorities are evidently of opinion â€" that it is advisable to sacrifice something in swiftness in order to gain protection. In our own nayy there are, as stated, no armored torpedo craft, it bem%1 beld that the very thin armor, which alone can be used, is comparativeâ€" ly useless, or worse than useless, while it destroys the most valuable quality in these little vesselsâ€"their paramount speed. Speed, however, is a relative â€" term. These â€" Argentine â€" destroyers are to steam twentyâ€"six knots, which would be sufficient to enable them to perâ€" form their ostensible duty of putlting out of action torpedo boats proper. It is now generally recognized, however, that "destroyers" are but torpedo boats of a larger growth, and this is fairly well shown by the fact that the présâ€" ent vessels have each three torpedo disâ€" charges, which are certainly not intendâ€" ed for use against small craft. Whatever may be the intention of the Whatever may N6o 100 OORAAA * uflns designers, however, one may be sure that no naval officer in command of a d 13 Td elicct hn ‘ind CHal Ho HACvVel CUERIME ACoedandogllltk, destroyer would lose the opportunitÂ¥ot bagging a battle ship or cruiser. For such an opportunity the chief advantâ€" age of s{)::d is that it enables the atâ€" tacking t to pass "the zone of fire" very quickly. _ Armor naturally les sens this advantage, but while it deâ€" tains the boat longer under fire, â€" it would keep out a great many projeo-‘ tiles that might otherwise be fatal. It is, of course, guns of the smaller nature that torpedo craft have most to fear. The machineâ€"fire gun sends a stream of bullets which may almost be likenâ€" ed to a jet of water from a hose, and, once the range were obtained, would soon play havoo with the ordinary thin plating of the average torpedo boat. It is to keep out these projectiles that oneâ€" half inch armor has been added to the Argentine boats. This armor entireâ€" ly surrounds the engines and boilers. ’the bulkheads at the ends of the â€" maâ€" chinery space being also of steel oneâ€" half inch thick. C WEA 00 100.
