Tommy Reese, of Division street,
was the victim Thursday nftcmoon of
a peculiar accident which was not very
serious, but wns decidedly painful. He
nnd his brother were wrostllrs In their
yard nnd Tommy had succeeded In
throwing the brother to the giound.
The brother held Tommy fast when he
wanted to get up, and while Thomns
waB squirming loose a large fish-hook
In the under man's pocket caught In
his right ear. It was utterly impos
sible to get loose.
The more his brother squirmed the
more pain was Thomas In. Their cries
btought the mother of the lads to the
scene. She viewed the situation nnd
thn procuring her' scissors she cut a
piece out of Tom's brother's pocket
nnd Tom was free. The fish-hook and
piece of cloth was still attached to his
ear.
The mother took the now thoroughly
frightened lad to a physician and tne
hook was removed. It's dollars to
doughnuts that the next time Tommy
wrestles with his brother that broth
er's pockets will be empty of fish
hooks and things.

Oil. SCIIENK'S TIIEOKV OI' SEX
It Ilni Ileon Put Into n Book Soon to
Bo Sold.
As announced by an Associated Press
dispatch from Vienna several days ago.
The Werner company, of Akron, O., has
scoured tho copyright privileges of
Pi of. Schenk's book on the "Determina
tion of Sex" both In the United States
and England. Tho work has been vig
orously pushed and Is now ready for
distribution. Dr. Leopold Schenk, the
author, Is a professor at the Imperial
and Royal university nnd director of
tho Embryoiogical institute in Vienna.
He has devoted twenty years to the In
vestigation of the subject, predetermin
ation of sex, and has verified his theor
ies again and again Ijy painstaking nnd
exhnustlve experiments. The transla
tion has been supervlied by Doctor
MacKellar, the well-known English
medical authority.
In view of tho fact, says no less an
nuthorlly than tho British Medical
Journal, that Prof. Schenk's conclu
sions as to the power of artificially
determining the sex of offspring have
served as a nine-day's wonder, it seems
advisable to lay before our readers (the
medical profession of England, Aus
tralia and India) a plain statement of
his arguments. His treatise falls Into
three parts a summary' ot the writings
of his predecessors on the same sub
ject, an account of his own researches
nnd deductions, and finally a descrip
tion of the method of treatment ho has
devised, with illustrative cuses.
"My discovery," explains Dr. Schenk,
"Is based upon tho scientific fact that
tho blood of n grown-up man contains
five million blood corpuscles, the near
eis of life-giving and nourishing oxy
gen, whilst the blood of a grown-up
woman only contains four million. The
difference Is the basis of the difference
of sex, of the different moral and phys
ical wo: king rowers in man and wo
man. Thlsi proportion is observable in
the slightest quantity of blood from a
man or a woman. .All my eftorts are
directed toward producing the right
number of blood corpuscles required hy
tne male embryo. 1 have succeeded In
attaining this effect by suitable nour
ishment of the woman."
It is a well-known fact that for ages
the secret of predetermining sex has
eluded the grasp of science; that from
remotest nntlcjulty this question has
engaged the attention of wlso men and
seers to no purpose. In view of tho
countless idle theories that have been
advanced, many of which have seemed
plausible and have had a temporary
following only to prove delusive and
without foundation. Dr. Schenk's dis
covery might be treated skeptically,
but that It comes to us on the author
ity of one of the leading medical lights
of Europe; from Vienna, too, the recog
nized center for advanced medical re
search of thu whole world: that it is
attracting the respectful attention of
learned societies everywhere; that the
British Medical Journal dignifies It
with a lengthy review, tantamount to
the endoiboment of the profession in
England; while the aristocracy of the
Austrian capital, says a well-known
correspondent, accepts the theory, and
"billef In It spreads with marvelous ra
pidity. Every day. he adds, tho little
street In which Prof. Schenk lives Is
crowded with elegant carriages from
which ladles alight eager to consult the
doctor.
Its simplicity cannot lie nccepted as
an argument against the soundness of
his theory. History teaches us over
and over ngaln that the so-called sec
lets ot nature all lie near to the sur
face. According to Dr. Schenk. It Is an
easy matter to determine the sex of
children, The rule laid down are ex
plicit nnd easily followed.

CANADIAN CANAL 1MIOJECT.
Waterway from tho Itooklei to the
fStent I.akea.
A continuous waterway from Lake
Superior to the Rocky mountains, in
British possessions, is contemplated,
according to a St. Paul dispatch. The
costliest portion of the work would be
between Lake Superior and Rainy
Lake, where canals would be required
over the height of land to reach Rainy
Lake. From the last-mentioned point
to Edmonton, on the Saskatchewan
river, tho work would bo comparative
ly light. Thence there Is clear navi
gation across the Lake of the Woods
to the Rosseau river, which flows Into
the Red river. There would bo clear
sailing to tho Saskatchewan by way
of the Red river and Lake Winnipeg.
At the mouth of the Saskatchewan the
Grand Rapids would have to bo over
come by a canal. Then there would be
uninterrupted navigation to Edmonton,
1,000 miles.
The distance In an alr-linc between
Lake Superior and Edmonton is about
1,400 miles. The proposed water-way,
following a circuitous route, would be
over 300 miles further than that.
