A SERIOUS MISTAKE.
Rose McLaughlin Mistook Oxalic
Acid For Salts and Swallowed a,
Qunnity Last Night.
Bose McLniiRhlln, n domestic em
ployed at the "Seneca," or old Fnttrot
house, at 315 North WashlnRton nve
nue, had a narrow escape fiom death
last night, by accidentally (taking
some oxalic add. The Rlrl found u
quantity of this In the kitchen and
about 10 o'clock swallowed a teaspoon
fill of it, linnglning the deadly poison
to bo salt.
The pecullaily bitter and sharp taste
made her come to the conclusion that
she had made a blunder, and she asked
othets of the Rlrls wot king about the
placo to taste the supposed salt. This
some of them did. taking, however,
only a tiny quantity. They Immedi
ately told the McLaughlin girl she had
made a mistake, and It was only a few
seionds later when she was seized
w ith terrible pains. Antidotes wete
administered nnd a physician' sum
moned. Dr. W. M. Iteedy attended the nung
woman nnd after half an hour's hard
work pionounced her out of dangei.
The acid she drank was used about
the house for bleaching purposes and
was labeled "poison."
BASE BALL NOT DEAD.
Possibility That Wo May Have a
Fast Tonm in This City
Next Year.
The interest which has been mani
fested in the Saturday amateur base
ball games, which have been, played
hniA of Into rnrtninlv unrrnnt tho na.
..-. ... .1..V, -.. J fc
exertion that Scianton Is far from being
a city In which all enthusiasm for the
national game Is dead, and would,
fuithermore, tend to give strong
grounds for a claim that a fast team
in a fast league would piove a money
maker in Scranton next season.
Now that Athletic paik Is to 1h
owned by a coteile of loveis of Ror.u
Ine sport, there is mote than a possi
bility that next seanon will witness a
revival of base ball Interest, nnd the
ground will once moto echo to the
frnntU toai.s of the meiry looteis as a
successor to the ever to be lemein
borcd "Big Bills," Massey and Claike,
plantt the ball over the fewo, or some
new Matty HoK.in climbs tho center
Held fenco and pulls out of the air atn
hltlotiH home-run ill Ives
An Knstern league team Is what the
citizens of Scranton want, and nothing
shoit of it will .satisfy. And It Is not
an Impossibility that we will have nn
Hastern leiguo team, at that. Scran
ton and Wilkes. Han e would form a
combination Mat would strenRthen the
Kastern conflldernbly.nnd to make room
for one of them nil that 'would be nec
essnry would be to drop Brockton. The
New England team succeeded Syracuse
In the circuit, as the Saline city fnnn
lefused to bttpport a winning team.
Bioekton, however, hnrdlv fits In
with Buffalo, Rochester, Toronto, Mon
treal, et al , and belongs properly to
the New Hnpland league, although It
mnkep a fnlr runnlnR-mate for Worces
ter. The two Pennsylvania cities would
round up the circuit In flrst-iatn stvle.
Scranton base hall enthusiasts want
a fast league. They won't stand for a
circuit In which semi-professional play
ers wearing Jersey City nnd BendlnR
uniforms tioop Into town nnd aie
beaten bv 29-0 scores. They do not
flock to se games where the opposing
team has to forfeit the match after one
of its heavy hitter smashes a bat, or
delay the pame until a boy Is bent to
the city for a new willow.
And theiefoie If, as Is very likely, a
team will be placed here next year,
sttnng efforts will be made to place U
In the Kastein league, lnstend of
wasting pains and1 money on a one
horso league like that Atlantic ntroclty
last f-eason. The New York State
league ha been mentioned as n pos
sible circuit Into which n local team
could break. It Is not likely. The New
Yorkers have a compact, well rounded
out circuit, with only Hmplre ejato
cities represented.
Tho rlvnliy Is keen, tho costs nf
transpoitatlom small nnd the players
oung, gingery nnd cheap. It would
be foolish to break up this arrangement
by bilnglng In two Pennsylvania aliens,
causing a gencial change In the pics
ent conditions. The New Yoik league
authorities ntcn't anxious for It, and,
what's mnro to the point, Scranton
fans nren t going to enthuse over
games with Troy, Uticn or lllon, and
get wildly excited over the raeo In anj
league which does not even possess the
virtue of having state cities making up
the circuit.

WIND MILLS AND PROGRESS.
One Can Pump Noarly Seven Million
Gallons of Water a Yonr.
It Is Interesting In this nRC of new
Ideas, vi hen steitin nnd electricity me
so much In evidence, to notice how
some of the older methods of obtaining
power ate still profitably emplnjed.
Take for example the use of wind
mill. Nobody known when this useful
devh e was Invented, It Is rumoiod
that the old Homans knew of Its use
nnd theie Is another Moiy that the
Smarms Inttoduccd It Into llutope.
But while the early history of the wind
mill Is shrouded In uniei talnlty, we do
know that It came to play so Impor
tant a patt In tho little Kingdom of
Holland as to be considered a national
necessity In keeping that couniRpous
nation out of the hands of the kcii.
In Holland wind-mills are used to pet
rid of water, In America they me
employed to produce It. Out on the
gieat plains In Kansas, Dokota, Iowa
and the ndJnlnliiR states, an Ideal place
for wind-mills where the country lies
Mat, and the winds sweep unlntertupted
for miles, the landscape Is fairly dotted
with them. They nie nil sizes nnd
kinds, nome tall nnd Riacoful, othets
placed low and resembling Iiuro paddle
wheels with the lower half housed, nnd
the upper half catching tho wind? A
number of the lnrper ones gilncl corn
or do other similar work, hut the
majority are engaged In pumping up
vvnter, for the needs of the stock nnd
the lrilgntlon of the land, fiom the ex
haitstless supply below the ground. Of
course each pump can bring up but a
small amount of water at a stroke, but
It Is astonishing to see how much thin
little aggregates In the couise of a
year.
An estimate has tecently been made
of the capacity of a wind mill turning
ten bouts a day for six months from an
Interesting tepoit on Wind-mills and
their use. Isird this year by tho
t'nlted States Oeologlcal Study, which
Is studying the Rtcat plans to make
available these llch utvdoigiound water
resources. It was found that nn nver
nge wheel, twelve feet In diameter,
with the wind blowing sixteen miles nn
hour, l.s capable of pumping 1,920 gal
lons an Imtit ,19,'JOO In a day of ten
houts. RTfi 000 ench month, and 3,4ri,000
gallons In six months. This Is the
woik of only one wind-mill. Add It
to the woik of hundreds anil thousands
of otheis, and realize the vast amount
of water biought Into use by this
means.
It Is difficult to nppieclnte the signifi
cance of this work and the value nf
the wind-mill as a factor In tho de
velopment of the country. It means
In the first place nn nhundnnco of
water for slock nnd Irrigating pur
pohs. nnd water always means a
gieat Increase In the productiveness of
the land. Thl is followed by an ln
( I ease In values and the possibilities
of larger population, bigger crops and
better pi ices, and moie business and
Jnci eased earnings for the transporta
tions lines This Is what the wind
mills are helping to do In America.
MAN WITH MUSICAL HEART.
Singular Career nnd Peculiarity of
Joseph Millkoroski.
Donii", V Y I.rttrr in I tlri I'rcin.
A Pole, whope name Is Joseph Mlll
koioskl. but who Is known In this coun
try ns l'dwnrd Lewis, or the man with
the "musical heart," is In this city ex
hibiting the musical part of his an
atomy to the legal profession. His
heart Is certainly n wonder nnd It has
puzzled the leading phyhlclan of the
count! y. Bv pressing one's ear to his
chest a peculiar sound or action of
the heait l.s heard in a musical strain.
He hns placed his heart music before
all the prominent colepes In the 1'nlted
States nnd Hurope. His heart has
been sold and is to he deliveied at hl
death to the John Hopkins I'nlverslty
at Philadelphia, from which he now re
ceives $7.1 a month as long as he lives,
and at his death his widow is to re
ceive $5,000 for tho heart on the de
llveiy of that organ to tho university.
Those who examined the heart's action
heie nie Di.s. W. J. P. and W. L.
Klngsle.v, Dr. II. J. Teller and Dr. T.
P. Scully.
Mr. Lewis is 37 years old and was a
student In tho Busslan university.
Alexander III. was- killed by the blow
Ing up of a bridge and a large number
of the students weio aucsted on tho
charge, and Mr. Lewis was one of
thirty who were sent to Siberia to
work in the mines for this crime,
which they were not guilty of, tho sen
tence being for life. For four yeais
and two months h did not se0 tho sky
nor the sun. Finally one day an op
portunity for escape came and the 30
went out, hut nil but Ave weio captur
ed or killed. Ml. Lewis was in a
hand to hand encounter nnd he re
ceived the point of a sword in his
heart and was left dead, but he was
found by friends nnd thiough careful
mining In the hospital he recovered.
This musical heart Is believed to In
some way have been the result of the
sword piercing that member, ns a
certlllcate fiom the doctor who made
the examination sa the point enter
ed the heart for two and one-half
Inches and the mlrnclo Is that he Is
alive today.
It was about live years ago, in the
New York hospital, that the discovery
was made, and now ho Is leaping a
foitume. The heait by Its peculiar
action doesj not Inconvenience him in
tho least, nnd he enjoys the best of
health.

Only one contestnnt turned In points
yesterday In The Tribune's Kducn
tlinnl Contest. This was Meyer Lewis,
who has so long been In the van of
all tho oung men and women who
aie ondeavnriiif. to vv'n one of the
eight scholarships by their own efforts.
Mr. Lewis Is this morning beyond the
finn maik, and his neniest ompetltor,
Miss OrlfTln, Is 17H points behind.
(Inly nine days moie lemaln for
those who have not already done so
to enter their names as participants In
tho contest, for the entry list will bo
closed on August 1.', nnd after that
date no ono not then enrolled will be
permitted to come In.
This Is a particularly good time for
beglnneis to come In, for the con
testants who have alieady registered
points havo lelaxed to a considerable
extent the past week or so. This l.s
especially tiue of those who are In the
second table. With one exception,
these all seem to have assumed an nt
tltude of "don't-careuess," a feeling
that will never help them to win a
scholarship or anything else worth
having. To achieve satisfactory re
sults, It l.s absolutely necessary that a
contMtant should go Into the work
with his whole heart niu' a strong
determination to noconiplnh something
definite. Half-hearted efforts can
never win success.
Any ono who desires to begin tho
woik now should send a postal to
"L'dltor Hducation Contest." Tribune.
Scranton, Pa., when he or she will be
