ELECTRICITY A CUCE. Has Produced Remarkable Re suits in Advanced Cases of Tuberculosis. Boston Ltipatch to New York World. Electricity as an accessory in treating tuberculosis has pro duced remarkable results, ac cording to a paper read before the convention of the American Electro-Therapeutic Association by Dr. F. F. Strong, instructor in electro-therapeutics at Tuft's Medical School, this city. Although in use only during the last vear, the method is not an experiment, because it has been satisfactory in every case "A new Method for the Treat ment of Pulmonary Tuberculo sis" was ur. btrong's subject. He said in part: "The use of electricity in its various forms has unquestion- a t a aoi proved as inucn a spec- be cure as -a miuor accessory to medical or hygienic treatment. Currents of high frequency have proven ot special value, and during the last few years hun dreds of cases have been report ed by eminent authorities in which cures have resulted from the application of high frequency currents where these agents formed the sole means employed for the elimination of the di sease, lhe satisfactory results of this treatment in tuberculosis are largely due to the profound increase in tissue combustion and vasomotor action which these currents produce, their peculiar vitalizing effect upon the tropic nerves and to the sti mulating and germicidal action of the c-zone which is produced when the effluve is applied over the lung tissues." In describing a system which he has employed, Dr. Strong said it involves the exhibition of Tesla currents of high potential and frequency directly applied to the surface of the thorax by means of a new form of vacuum condenser electrodes while the lungs are being periodically forcibly distended by a mixturt of pure ozonized oxyeen anrl nebulized vapors from aromatic and antiseptic oils A. . . 1. rt . .

The Katahdin was the idea of an officer of the navy, who, at the time of the building of the ram, declared that the sharp pointed craft, from the manner in which it was constructed, would be lm mune irom tee suots o t an enemy, but would send any war snip to the botton that it came in contact with. Great things were expected from the ram, but after it was accepted as part of the navy it was discovered that the alleged terror was able to make only 16 knots at its best, and as the warships of any of the navies of the world were capable of making at least 18 knots it would be impossible for the Katahdin to catch up with them. As a fighting craft the Katahdin was fouud to be worth less, and was sent to League Island. There it remainded for several years, and at the out break of the Spanish-American war both it and the Vesuvius were used to protect the coast. l he Vesuvius was turned into a serviceable torpedo training ship but the peculiar build of the Katahdin made it impossible to convert the vessel into anything that would be of use.
