Finch, was idven ia tle Denver DailT New-T from which we quote the following : The subject operated upon was a metiium siz-d terrier dog. It securely tied, and an incision made ia an artery in his neck by which tha animal was bled to death. He cer tainly passed through all the symp toms of dying, and soon after ;th last blood issued from the wound bin frame became fixed and rigid, anil his eyes showed the senseless frlara of death. The room was kept at a temperature of 70degrees Far., while the dog lay for three hours dead. Bv this time lie had become very stiff and cold. Ht was now placed in a warm water bath that wasconstantlr maintained at a temperature of 105 degrees, and was continually and thoroughly rubbed, and as he became pliant his limbs were gently workt-d about and his IkxIv rendered supple A half pint of hot water was now passed into his stcmach. through a hard rubber tube that was forced down hia oesophagus. When this was accomplished, the mouth of a rubler tub, attached to a bellows. was in trod uced into his windpipe, and as tha bellows were provided with a double valve, by which the air could he withdrawn as well as inhaled, the dog's nose was securely fastened up. A large and powerful Newfound laud dog that had been obtained for the purpose had been tied near by, and was now bled, while the attend ing surgeon proceeded to adjust the tiadsf using apparatus, and began to slowly inject the live dog's blood in to the dead one. Simultaneously Mr. Armitage began slowly working i .-l : A V .11 i - T 1 i. 1 , , - 1 ., - - , 3 . 3- rubbing the animal aud bending his limbs ar.il body to filitate circula tion. We could could not have been more anxious about the issue of our efforts. if they had been made on a human being instead of a dumb brute. "When a pint of fresh blood had been iajected. I could see soma change about the eyes of the dog. But no one spoke. One thought wa3 common to all would life come back. In a few momenta more there was cert-uiuly a eonTulsive tremor noticeabje ia-the ttody. Mxv. Armitage in undisguised excitement said to the surgeon, "Press the blood."
