INVENTOR EDISON^ LATEST.
New Chemical for the Fluoroscope Which
Will Discount die X Bay.
Thomas A. Edison is soon to
startle the world with another won-
derful discovery. Not content with
giving to mortals the incandescent
lamp, the graphophone, the kineto
scope and the fluroscope, he now
proposes to make the human body_
transparent. In a word, it will he
possible one of these days literally
to “see through a man.” Hereto-
fore postmortem examination has
been necessary in order to under-
stand the mysterious make up of
some people. If Mr. Edison’s ex-
pectations are realized, however,
the same result can be reached by
an ante-mortem diagnosis, and the
secrets of the human “prison house”
disclosed before death leaves the
body.
To be brief, the wizard has just
discovered a new chemical common
in his laboratory at Llewellen park
that premises to revolutionize sur-
gery, and even the broader domain
of science. Indeed, to state the ex-
act facts, Mr. Edison has succeeded
in manufacturing a number of new
crystals which offer greater possi-
bilities in connection with the fluro-
scope. Several of them in particu-
lar hold out the hope that physicians
may sooner jor later see the exact
position and'condition of the internal
organs of their patients. Less than
a year ago it was thought remarka-
ble for one to see the bones of the
hand. To-day Mr. Edison’s ex-
periments have been so successful
that he can discount the best revela-
tions of the X ray photograph made
a couple of nfonths ago, and the
probabilities are that the physician
of the future, by the aid of this
fluoroscope, will be able to tell at a
glance whether or not a man is in
good health! and free from bone
formations, cancers, tumors and the
like. Moreover, with the new crys-
tals already discovered, a man’s eye
may be securely bandaged and yet
he can discern objects in a room, so
that in cases of blindness where the
visual organs are not entirely de-
stroyed, tberje is a chance for the
sightless to see dimly under certain
circumstances.
Such are some of the possibilities
bound up in a new discovery. Mr.
Edison, for the present, refuses to
disclose the names of the new chem-
icals. lie Very modestly remarks
(hat he is still experimenting with
them, and that he wants to exhaust
their possibilities before announcing
the results to the world. But be
very kindly wrote out for the Globe-
Democrat the following statement
of what he had accomplished. It is
an exceedingly modest account of
his experiments, to say the least, and
only hints aj the expectations of the
Wizard whispers in the ears of his
assistants, and which he sooner or
later hopes to realize. The part of
Mr. Edison’s statement that he de-
cribes the new chemical discovered
is as follows :
Mr. Edison first purchased in th is
country and Europe all the differ-
ent chemicails known or sold in the
trade which he did not already pos-
sess. These were all tried in the
fluoroscope, and only one was equal
in sensitive to tunstate of calcium.
Since then, i however, Mr. Edison’s
chemists have been making chemical
combinations not procuable else-
where. Thirty new substances per
day have been the average product.
These have been subjected to the X
ray and their fluoroscing power
measured- Mr. Edison has found
one chemical which is more sensitive
to the X ray than any heretofore
known. He will keep .on in his
work, however, until there is little
hope of finding anything better, al-
though be says that the chances of
discovery can never be exhausted,
the possible chemical combinations
running up into the hundreds of
millions. Should Mr. Edison suc-
ceed in finding what he is after,
there is no doubt that the fluoroscope
will be an instrument of great value
to the surgeon, for by means of it
he will be enabled to make an ac-
curate diagnosis of the internal or-
gans of a man. —St. Louis Globe-
Democrat.

Verily the path of transgressors in
the Indian Territory is becoming
somewhat rocky. Judge Springer
is putting his stamp on crime with a
lavish hand. Many thought the
Fort Smith court in the days of
Judge Parker, a holocaust of right-
eous indignation, but the courts un-
der the new regime are proving
them tame indeed.—Tulsa New

Israel Carr, .the notorious Israel,
who. has been a howling terror in
the Creek nation for the past five
years and who was universally con-
ceded to be the one natural born
desperado and all ’round bad man,
has at last met his fate and at all
ways predicted, died with his boots
on. He was killed on Friday of
ast week west of Okmulgee by a
white man named Malone. Israel
has figured in a score of shooting
scrapes, has many times bedta in jail
and has been generally regarded as
a dangerous man. He was a native
Creek, a young man of fair educa-
tion and more than the average in-
telligence, but he was ^xjdess and
desperate and neither the admoni-
tions of friends or the terrors of the
law were sufficient to curb him in
his mad career and the end of which
has now come was but the just
whirlwind that surely and certainly
comes to those who sow to the wind.

The court of appeals' for thqfc-
dian Territory in its opinion intne
ease of White et al vs. Mrs. Annie
F. Brown, has been misconstrued
by the different papers throughout
the Territory.
While the court holds that a lease
of lands in the Chickasaw nation, for
a longer period than one year, is
void, yet it holds that where a lease
is made for a longer period than
one year, and the lessee is to make
certain improvements on the land
and as payment therefor retain the
rents of the land, that such a con-
tract is binding and the lessor will
not be permitted to repossess him-
self without paying for the improve-
ments.
The effect of the opinion is to
validate the lease although the
court says it is void. The same rule
would apply to the Choctaw nation.
The Chickasaw commissioners
who went to Washington to protest
against the Dawes-Choctaw agree-
ment, had a conference with the
Dawes commission to try to settle
the diff-rences growing out oj the
agreement. The Chickasaws pro-
test against the ratification of the
agreement without their consent be-
cause they have an undivided in
terest in the Choctaw nation and yet
they propose to make an indepen-
dent agreement, which would ,of
course, meet with opposition froin
the Choctaws for the same reason.
They object to the disposition of
royalties, arising from minerals, as
provided for in the agreement and
yet their plan is the same in general
terms. The Chickasaws had better
embrace *be opportunity and sigu

among congressmen now seems to

Mr. W- J. Watts, known up in
the Cherokee Nation as the “King
of the Intruders,” was in the city
yesterday filing some citizenship
claims in the district court. Mr.
Watts stated to a Times reporter that
he does not believe the recent orders
of Secretary Francis will be enfor-
ced, at least not as soon as announced
in the dispatches. In Mr. Watts’
opinion, Secretary Francis has
signed the order without first inves-
tigating into its serious effects, if he
has at all, or that the Secretary is
very illy informed in reference to
the situation here in the Territory.
There are,” said Mr. Watts,
“about 7,000 heads of families in
the Cherokee nation, all of undenied
Indian blood, who have been rejec-
ted by the Dawes commission.
They have most of them been resi-
dents of the Cherokee nation for ten
or twelve years and have built them-
selves houses and reared their fami-
lies there. For the Secretary to
issue a sweeping order to drive
them off their farms and away from
all they have in the world without
dne process of law and an effort to
arrive at an equitable settlement is
an order that could not be enforced
without the force of arms and per-
haps a gr**tJo«s of life,” Mr.
Watts is of tffe opinion that the or-
der, when its sweeping effects are
properly understood by Mr. Francis,
will either be modified or annull-
ed altogether.—Muskogee Times

CONFEDERATE REUNION.
General Gordon, commander-in
chief of the United Confederate
Veterans, announces that the dates
have been changed for the Nashville
reunion from May 5th, 6th and 7th
to June 22nd, 23rd and 24th.
There were several reasons for the
change. It was believed that it would
be more convenient for the veterans
to attend in June than in May, and
at the later date, the Tennesse
Centennial Exposition will be -in
more advanced stage.
General Gordon refers with
pleasure and pride” to the fact
that 875 confederate veteran’s
organizations are already enrolled
and that 150 more will be formed
before the reunion. He urges the
camps to begin at once preparations
to attend the great reunion. Very
important business will be considered
by the gathered veterans. The
question of providing state or other
aid for disabled or destitute veterans
and the windows and orphans of
veterans will be discussed.
General Gordon declares his faith
that appeals for aid to the broken
and needy veterans or those whbm
they left helpless will not be made
in vain to any state of the south, “as
it would be ingratitude without
parallel, and degredation without
precedent, that any of these should
turn their backs upon the old heroes
and their ever glorious records, in
their old age and dire distress.”
