Marseilles can get up ns Melting ,i bull light as any in Spain, nnri itf, lust performance is worth recording. The bulls, during the greater part of the fight, had the l»tt*r of it, and it will not their fault if they did not pitch the horses, the ball-fighters, and tiirir assistants oyi-t the wall among tire spectator.--. Six bulls from Andalusia were produced, nn.l j all six showed goml mettle. It was not long before one horse was killed and several more were disabled. One of the assistants or picadors was rolled over by a bull and caught up, and it was with difficulty that he was rescued from the horns of the enraged animal. A matador, in tho excitement, cut liis hand with his sword, and the sixth bull finally caught the sword of a matador and hurled it with his horns into tlie crowd of rjicctatora. The sword landed on. the he-id of a spectator and injured him severely. The matailnr him.-elf was hit. in the head by one of the hull's horns, anri was carried unconscious out of the arena. His bend was bandaged at the infirmary, and after his recovery he insisted on "going back to the ring to kill the last bull.
1- Tir Alexis Carrel, the pioneer of human ) grafting, gave a glimpse into the future r of surgery in -i lecture he delivered in ■j Paris in June. He announced that, from 3 tlie surgical standpoint, it mat perfectly j feasible to transplant a member, such as K. an arm or a thigh, at will. It was c "only a question of sang-froid" and „ technical -.hill. But his experiments t had revealed the existence of-individu- ,. ality in the animals he had used' for his t rftburces. While it was possible to rej graft successfully on to an animal a member such as a kidney -previously removed from it.it was not the same tiling , to praft the kidney of one dog on to an--5 other. The grafted organ in the second , case withered and produced symptoms of premature senile decay in the animal J used for the experiment, which inevitably died. Therefore, to replace a diseased kidney in a human being by'a ' kidner taken from a sound -subject 1 wottl'f he impossible until thi.H enigma of 1 individuality had been solved. Tho transplantation of arteries and skingrafting were at" present possible. He had arranged with it New York hospital lo keep him supplied with the necessary reserve stock of skin, which he preserved ' in rold storage by a special process he has invented. I'arisians arc looking forward to the day when n man who has been severely burnt in Siberia, -tiny owe his life to a supply of skin providentially dispatched lo him from Dr. Carrel's cold storage in New -York. U. Clement Vautc], the licensed jester of thn INiri.-istis, humorously suggests in the "Matin" Hint the newspapers may , soon have to open their columns to such , mi Advertisement as the following:—- j "For (isle, llr-irl, In good condition, be- | lon-gin;? to n young-person. Would suit j fair, sentimental, wealthy gentleman,— , Write, Mile, X." I
T*n million American citizens of AWrun decent arc furioiWl because of the decision «f the United States Supreme C-urt pronouncing the l-Vder-il Civil Rifktd Act Vl'gril. This decision rewoven lbs" BSIT ground upon which coloured persons'in America could contend for equal accommodation with whites when travelHn/r by train and boat, when ; seeking hotel quarters, in desiring to M served in restaurants, drugstores, and other places, and in demanding other erual privileges. Some years W> the <-'upreme Court held that Congress had exceeded its powers in passing the Civil Riant* Act, and declared that so far ar • it Interfered with the rights of a .Stata it wan repugnant. Mary Butts, a repress, bought a first-class ticket on the (Merchants and Miners Transportation Lines from Boston to >««« During the trip she claimed that she had twelve times been denied equal accommodation. Under the Civil Rights Act "she brought a suit to recover £1,300. -She declared that she had been refused the same eating and sleeping aeeommotlatinn as was furnished to white people, and was required to take her meals at the second table, and sleep on the lower J deck. In many American towns ncgToes r are assumed to possess equal privileges with the whites, but if they were to , present themselves in a fashionable re- -j staurant, for example, and ask for- a ■ email steak, the price charged would be ,-; five guineas or thereabouts, so that the | blacks usually keep away. Under the t decision quoted a negro will l>e plainly a advised that his trade v.; not desired, i No subterfuge to avoid serv-ng him will -v be necessary hereafter either in Wash- r. inrrton or elsewhere. -.
