Dr. lfilingston Remove* a Tumor Weigh-
ing 40 Pounds trout a Woman- wa
About two weeks ago a woman 39 years an,
of age, hailing from the Bay of Chalcur. ar- ver
rived at the Hotel Dieu Hospital, Mon- tin
trealato be treated. for a tumor from which ye
she had been suffering for f011YteCti years. lea
Dr. Ilingston attended her, and as she did na,,
not appear to be recovering be decided to en,
perform an operation on her, and, assisted } .
by Drs. Brunelle and Fiche, he proceeded : de:
to do so. Chloroform and ether were
miuistered, and as she was a strong, sturdy he
woman the doctors entertained great hopes ; sa
that-shewculd undergo the operatiou with- ; th
out succumbing. When she was fairly mi
under the influence of the drugs. an inci -
sion over a foot in length was made by Dr
Hingstou, and after working for about
'three hours, during which time he display-
ed a remarkable amount ' of skill and dex- 1as.
terity„ he finally removed the tumor. On se,
1
being placed on a pait of scales it tilted the ,
balance at 40 pounds. The wound was 1
speedily sewed up, and the woman is re- cd
covering very fast, in fact she is considered in
entirely out of daeger. The operation in
all occupied three hears and a half. The sq
tumor in shape resembles a wasp's. nest, '
and was divided into many oval sections,
the smaller of which was inside the larger;
each being filled with a murky liquid.

fang of a rattlesnak , and injects into the

greatly different in character from .that

infinitesimal. The blood thus infected -will
not coagulate ; it sucks out easier. The
poison is. acid. ; hence mosquito -bites
readily succumb to any alkali, and, iudeed,
water is often founda sufficient restorative.
Camphor, -carbolic acid with alycerine, and
spirits of ammonia are favorite remedies.
Peintyroyal is said to chive mosqui-,

sceptical. As a scientific study. the
great strength of the mosquito'is exhibited.
It may be called the strong point. The
generic Immo of the mosquito is Culex,
the Latin for gnat. It is not vicjporous,
but comes in by the lfatclaway,' wit unlike -
a burglar. Nor is -it born to the condition
-of life in which we find it. lts habits aro
analogous to those of tlie frog. The ma-
ternal mosquito deposits a ina.4tte of ova
in still or stagnant water. Swamps afford
her this facility, but she will take up with
any pool Or puddle. Cisterns and troughs.

for future drinking or washing purposes,

V.7<t.:-;urso•roN, Oct. 8.=-A moat interesting
and curious incident has t occurred in
connection with the terriihe -try of the
massacre of Custer's comn Lando "1 t he 'tittle
Big Horn ou the 25th if June, 1876.
Among the officers who fell on that dark
day,' it will be remembered, was a son of
Gen. Crittenden, of the St ates army.
No traces were ever found by his sorrowing
frieuds of the personal affecta of the gal -
holt mid unfortunate yoang Lieutenant
Crittenden. He had returned from
trip to Europe. not long la fere he went
weat upon the service in which ha was des.
titled to fall, aud among ..ther things
brought home by him from the old world
was a handsome and valuable op watch
of English make, by which -et great
:store, and which he was known to have
worn ou the day when he met his death.
A short time ago the adjutunt-general of
the army received a letter from a resident
in the Winnipeg country of Canada, asking
whether any officer bearing the name of
Crittenden had taken part in he• luckless
expedition of Custer. The writer gave as
his reason for making the inquiry that
be -
had purchased sometime ago from a half-
breed a • gold watch .viltich the half-
breed- told him he had obtained
