* A VERY REMARKABLE CASE. Resuscitation of « Woman After Ape parent Death by hanging, so as to be co A of notice and discussion outside of ly professional circles. case is reported by Dr. Ernest W. White, senior assistant medical officer to the Kent lunatic asylum at Chartham, near Canterbury, tient was a woman 58 years old, afflicted with that form of insanity known as melancholia, She had tried to kill herself before admis sion into the asylum and made several at- tempts to take her life after being re ceived into the institution. Finally she succeeded in escaping the watchfulness of the attendants, who had frustrated ber previous efforts at self-destruction, and hid herself in a bath-room, where she was found hanging to a ladder by a cord formed of portions of her dress, eight minutes after she bad been seen alive by another patient. When cut down she was apparently | quite dead. Animation wus so completely which enabied the medical men present to distinguish her condition from that of | real death. This is the remarkable feature of the case Sa far as the doctors could see, the woman was dead The skin was ashy paie, the surface tein perature very low, the lips were livid and the eyes dilated and ta the action of light; there was no pulse at the wrist or temples; no definite heart beat could be detected by stethoscope; resp ration had absolutely ceased, and uBCONsCIOUANCSS Was com plete Even the application of galvan ism failed to contract muscles, NH the woman had been a criminal who had suffered the extreme penalty of the law, the physicians would have been justified by the pronouncing her dead: vet to-day, and not only well but fast recovering | rangement Pr. White and refused to act up gave their pat doubt in their doubt was very = to artificial what 1s known in medicine vester method. The movements performed slowly—ouly minute—but about ten after they were begun an exceedingly feeble attempt at natural noted, and very weak heart were perceived stethoscope. Ten time to wait for the durning life, and that In many cases death, especially by drowning the measures necessary for resuscita- tion are not continued long enough to rekindle the smoldering spark of life that remains in the body. There ean bardly be too much patience or persever ance. In this ease artificial respiration was steadily maintained for two hours before the natural breathing was sufficiently established to dispense with Assistance in this way. If it had been abandoned earlier the woman would robably bave died, notwithstanding ui partial restoration to sensibility. We need not follow the treatment in detail. The patient became imperfectly conscious about eleven hours after the act of strangulation, and in the course of a fortnight was in good bodily health. She lost her melancholy illusions and became cheerful, looking back at ber attempt at suicide with horror. For two days from the time of hanging, however, her memory was a complete blank. This extraordinary case is interesting in several aspects. The complete simu- lation of death suggests a possibility that hysicians may sometimes themselves be eceived as to the fact of death, espe cially careless practitioners or those of comparatively limited information. We hate already referred to the lesson which it teaches of the need of steadfast and hopeful perseverance in efforts to restore those who have apparently lost their lives by strangulation or drowning. it would appear that artificial respira tion is more useful and effective when the movemens are performed slowly than when they exceed ten a min ate. This is an important point for those to remember who are called upon render first aid to the injured. Finally, this remark able occurrence may well lead to specu. lation as to the many stories which have been published of the restoration to life of men who have apparently suffered” death by hanging on the gallows It is probable that fully seven minutes had elapsed between the moment of the act of su pension and the time when the woman was cut down. Who can say that similar measures might not have brought about a resuscitation if she had remained hanging twice as long? And might not a strong man possess the potential ability to recover, with like assistance, from the effects of strangulation lasting half an hour! Who can now assert with confidence that a convict with neck unbroken cut down after hanging thirty minutes, and turned over to friends having all the re- sources of modern. medical science at command, wight not be called back to insensible the even the dott less symptoms in respirat : were tan minutes respiration Wis pulsations of the by the aid of the minutes is a long first signs of re it is to be feared of apparent fo existence in this world! i Such an event is improbable enough | Lend of suspended that there was no symptom | €NC 90 * Mass, by Professor Riohard of that town, in the winter e s for the convenience of lovers, since there was no “next room,” courting sticks were used; that is, long wooden tubes that could convey from Tip to esr sweet and secret whispers, Was this an invention peculiar to Long Meadow?

Lemaire, late French consul general at Shanghai, and recently appointed minister plenipoten- tiary at Hoe, was at school at Tounerre.: There, with unconsciousness of his destiny, he was nicknamed Jaunot, on account of his singularly yellow complexion. He was a quiet lad, not brilliant, often bullied by his comrades, and somewhat hardly fre ted by his professors When 15 be passed & vacation with in Burgundy, and had foracom a cousin much younger than was to play at an unel panion nimself.

As the cousin was mounting the collar stairs, Lenmire exclaimed, Here and pulled the trigger, The gun, which be did not know to be loaded, went off and blew out the brains of the young cousin. Lemaire's family, horrified at the event, sent him to sea nz a cabin boy, Nothing was heard of him for years, and he sent no letlers home, At last it was found out that he had established himself at Saigon, had learned Chinese, and was employed as interpreter at the French consulate, Later nows came that he had married a Cochin Chinese Indy, whethor a native or settler is not stated and now the result of that un. fortunate shot with the flint gun is that he is gnized as the most accom. plished diplomatist that France can find to conduct her affairs among the yellow people.
