He asked the assistance of some friends, who happened to be passing by, and they helped him to his home. He was able to reach a chair in the front hallway and then quietly passed away.

SHOT BY FRIEND WHILE RONTING Albert Lux Is Seriously Wounded by His Compan- ion on an Outing Trip SR Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1016 Broadway, July 3. Albert Lux, 21 years of age, living at 1105 Mason street, San Francisco, was accidentally shot by a companion while hunting in the hills back of Berkeley, and is in a critical condition at the Oakland Receiving Hospital. Young Lux, who is a machinist by trade, came to Berkeley to-day with Henry Sensenbreuner, who lives at 788 Folsom street, San Francisco. They had one shotgun between them and started for Wildcat Canyon, back of Berkeiey. There are some curious caves in the canyon that Lux knew about and he was anxious his friend should see ‘them. He started to lead Sensen- breuner to them, and was a short dis- tance ' ahead, when Sensenbreuner stumbled and the shotgun was dis- charged. The full charge took effect in Lux's back, wounding him very se- riously. Sensenbreuner helped the man whom he had wounded to get back to Berke- ley, where Dr. Payne treated him tem- porarily. Lux was then brought to the Oakland Recelving Hospital and placed under the care of Dr. Stratton. The young man’s wounds are very serious. —————————— Torpedoed in Park Row. Two marines from the battleship Kentucky were headed for the Park- row entrance of the bridge, on a course from the southward. One of them carried a big grip with a large cargo under its hatches. It was early in the afternoon rush and the marines had hard work maneuvering. In the swirl of the human current at Frank- fort street the Nassau tide hit them and they were swept around. The man with the grip was carried clean off his feet and left stranded in the roadway on the edge of the vortex. His companion was hustled in the same direction, but managed to keep his feet. Slowly the castaway reached a level craft in distress, as he looked, dazed, at the thousands of skilled navigators scudding toward the bridge. “Say, Bill,” he finally ejaculated, “you've gotter go slow in this man’'s town or you'll get torpedoed.”—New York Press. ——— e A Good Samaritan.

As he lay there various persons passed him, but ‘none offered to assist him. Presently, however, a poor Samaritan came by and, taking pity on the wounded man's plight, helped him on his mule and keel and caught the arm of the other | CIVE SERMONS |CALLS SCIENCE 10 CURE ILLS Dr. Svante A. Arrhenius{ Applies Serum to Con-| quer Human Diseases’ POISON FIGHTS POISON European Secientist Looks for Complete Revolution in Practice of Medicine —_— Berkeley Office San Francisco Call, 2148 Center Street, July 3. Professor Svante A. Arrhenius of the | Summer School faculty of the Univer- | sity of California believes that with | of diseases the treatment of human ilis will soon be reduced to such a scien- tific basis that men will marvel at the crude and illogical methods that have obtained so long in this enlightened age, The greatest physicist of the world holds to this belief, because he has had a measure of success with serum-therapy in his own native land of Sweden and in Denmark, there is a National Serum Institute The results that Dr. Arrhenius has obtained in this great field of research the application of chemistry to the cure | A where | ! he proposes to give to the world for the first time in a series of lectures during the summer session at the University. | None of the discoveries Dr. Arrhenius | has made have ever been published and no doubt they will be of the most pro- found importance to scientists and medicos. The successes that have been ob- tained with serum and its application | to diseases are so far limited to a few of the more malignant types of bodily ills. These may be enumerated as | diphtheria, lockjaw and possibiy ty- phus. Partial successes have also been secured with the bubonic plague, chol- era and blood poisons that have been caused by reptiles. In discussing his ological Laboratory, where he is asso- | ciated for the summer with Dr. Jacques | substance of nearly all diseases lie in | the poisons that the body secretes, | therefore it is the obligation of science | to discover the counteracting antidot He said: These research are being caried on with the knowledge that every poison has lts spe clal anti-poison, A disease i affects some part of the bod: reached through the agency which itself is polsoned. By of the anti-poison, of which composed. a reactjonary effect the disease is conquered. I I ieve that in tion in the practice of medicine | The great difficulty is to secure an anti- poison that will be efficacious and it is along these lines that I am working. In the case of diphtheria we have had the most success | and the serum for that disease is now being | manufactured everywhere It was tively easy disease to study, as tions are always on the surface. lating the lower animais with the white mem- brane of patients afflicted with that disease we were able to Ttain just what counter- poisons gave results. Typhus is such a malignant disease that it is doubtful if it can be said that treatment with serum is successful. The common method of investigation with that disease has been to | extract blood from the patient and experiment with It. Great success has been secured with a serum in India, where formerly large num- bers of people were killed annualiy by the poi- son of reptiles. It has also become the com mon thing to supply the French Medagascar to protect them against t there With tuberculosis we have not pursued any lengthy investigation, but It is possible that in a compara- 00ps snakes time something may be accomplished. Dr. | Koch, you know, discovered tuberculine, but | h% never achieved final success. About the | only thing tuberculine did was to develop un- | mistakable evidences of tuberculosis in ani mals that had been previously only suspected of the disease. A number of experiments have heen carri on with the blood of various animals. T) blood is treated with a pofson called Msin, which acts on the corpuscles so as to affect its color. In order to determine what other poi s poison We apply anti- ons and thus discover the basis for a new 8 g 8 Dr. Arrhenius’ researches have re- that are highly interesting to biolog- jcal science.

It creates prejudice against them. They may not care for that, but It is a mat- ter of serious care to them whether or not the law is upheld. Without law theirevast property interests would be worth nothing. The more the people respect the law the better it would be for property owners, and if for no higher and nobler reason it is clearly in the material interest of the rich that law and order shall previfl, and it is therefore in their interest to discharge their civic duties with faithfulness and with willingness and to respond cheer- fully to the demands of the State authoritiee.—Richmond (Va.)
