In Dcllcvuo liMpltal they have a new mo- elianlc.il device tor the reduction of spralncc Joints anil tendons , relates the Now York Journal. It la a strange looking affair and eomo- tvhat resembles n metal barrel with a larfio lolo through tlio center from end to end t Is heavily padded on the hislclo with as tosthrough which mis a cell of pipes. Thcso pipes arc connected with a fmuaca nil the heat generated In the "barrel" Is errlflc. Thcro ore not a great many of licso machines In cxU'tcncc at prcsceit , but ho good they -have dcuo In the west among 'oot ' tail players 'la already very gieat. The new cure la simply the subjection of : ho sprain or bruise to hn enormously high cmperaturc. It Is strange , too , that the .mtlent feels no incccivealcncc from thta great heat. Most of the sprains are treated vlth a tcmpcraturo of 300 degrees Fahr- : ilicit. A patient Is able not only 1o wlth- tnnd euch a temperature , but to > ibsolutcly njoy It. Although the machine has mot yet icon tried In eases of bruises or sprains , It was employed In the rellcC of a patient -with - oevero case of rheumatism at Bellcvuo hospital some days ngo. The troitmcut was conducted by Dr. Hlge- , ow , chief of the hCtspltal staff , on James lartmnn. The pstliat's jef [ nnldo was iwollcn eo badly that bending It was out of o question. Even the drawing off of the dclc froln tile swollen member was attended with t'evcre fain. The drum-like machine was brought out tad l\\c \ rheumatic foot was ilocod carefully In tie drum and packed tghtly In the asbestos casing. Hartman winced -at the operation. "Now turn on the licat , " said the physician to the attendant [ u charge of the furnace. The gas furnace was lit , and the licit was gradually turned Inlo the cojl of pipes. Vt first only 110 degrees 'Fahrenheit wan used. The patient smiled. "You are now enduring 200 degrees , " said .ho doctor. "I don't care If Its 2,000 degrees , " was the reply. "I've got jrid of that awful tooth ache hi my ankle. " four minutes liter another fifty degrees ivas turned on. "That's right , " said the patient , "I can bear twice as much as that. " Another slight turn was given to the tap ind the extreme limit of heat was readied , "or tea minutes Hartman seemed to be horoughly enjoying himself. The "birrel" was then removed from the rheumatic leg , tiio patient protesting In the meanwhile that ho could bear 'the heat all day without Inconvenience. The swelling loomed to have been reduced materially , and : ho patient declared that the pain was all one. The licuse physician at Bellevue said : "So far we have not treated coy sprains. Several cases of rheumatism have been trolled , ' however , and 'to each Instance the patient has experienced decided relief. Whether this relict -will be permanent or not I am not prewired to aay. "I do aot , know exactly what physiological ficllcii the 300 degrees Fahrenheit lias on the : pralned tendons , muscles or tissues. "The reason the ordeal Is not Injurious to .ho flesh Is that It Is perfectly dry heat. t , la the 'hcnt , cnly in a far more Intense de gree , th'at ono ertco'untcrs In the IMoJave dexjert or Death valley. It Is a strange fact hat the extremes of heat and of cold have lmost 'tho same effect on Epralns. Intense cold will sometimes help a bruise or sprain , end so will Intense hoit. The effect la not .ho same , however , on all persona. Heat ivlll sometimes stimulate the heart In cases > f 'heart failure.lu other cases Intense cold will have a similar effect. " AMERICA IV 1800. The Population Centered In n Very Few Cltlett IXVnr the Count. In the January St , Nicholas there Is a .imely article rjnth < jCreater Now Ycrk , en- iitled "Reasoning Out a Metropolis , " by 'Ernest Irigersmll' " Writing of the distribu tion of the population at the beginning of the century. Mr. InRersoU sjys : Montreal and Quebec were then largo towns , but making no prosress ; nothing had come of tho" expected cities along- the ccast of Maine ; , Qd ) Salem had been out stripped by Boston , which already numbered 30-.000 citizens ; Newport , Now London and New- Haven were still disappointingly small and sleepy ; New York , which had borne the brunt of the revolutionary war. Included only some GO.tiOO Inhabitants ; while Philadelphia delphia.uniarmad by the war , was nourishing , and led 'the list with a popula tion 'numbering over 81.000. Farther south. Baltimore , with about 27,000 people ; Charles ton , with 20,000. and New Orleans ( then In French terrltpry ) . w'"l ' 10 00 ( > > wcre tno oaly oojst towns worth mentioning. Civilization iiiad scarcely found Its way acrcas the Alleghajilcs , Chicago did not cxlot , and OSWOBO. Buffalo , Detroit. I'lttsTiurg and Cin cinnati were mere frontier viragos or Indian trading pests. New England and eastern .Pennsylvania . and IJaryland were dotted with villages , but the largest Inland towns weve those of northern Now Jersy and the valley of the 'Hudson , whore iNowburg- , Kingston and Albany took tho- lead of all. Let us see what happened during tne next thirty years. As soon as peace and a firm , united gov ernment were gfllned by the war for In dependence , wo Americans began to think about finding out and making use of tlie wealth of our new country , first by setting as many prsons as possible to clearlnj away the forests and planting fields ; am ! great numbers from the older states nm : from Europe moved west and received from the government tracts of land , for which Uio only pay asked wan a promlso to etay and cultivate thorn. But It was plain that there was no use In farming , no matter how cheap and fertile the'sell , nor In cutting timber or dlggln' minerals , no matter how accessible anil abundant unless the pioneers had some way 'to ocnd the grain they grow , or the tlmbo. or minerals to market. Uosds were , therefore - fore , of thci first Importance. Nobody but a hunter or an explorer could travel Into the hoavlly wooded Interior , except along some navigable river , and ntfirst only the valleys of those rivers wore cultivated. Next , ft few- roads v/erf' laid out , connecting thn coaE' 4ind riverside towns , but none penetrated In land very far. and these were mostly me-o tracks for pack horses , All frontl&r sools were carried by horses until almost the be ginning of this century ai they are yet In remote parts of the far west. This mctho | s exceeding expensive. It cost , for In stance , $24D a 'ton ' or about 12& cents a pound , to carry mcrchandlso by pack-horso from Philadelphia to IJrlo In 1784 ; and when In 1789 , the first wagon'road was op3ncd over the Pennsylvania mountains the cost of frelshtapo was $3 a ton for tbs pm alone about 140 miles. It was no until 1S04 that the first throiuh line n < stages waa establlihed from Philadelphia to PlttHburp. making the trip In seven days , Taeso things show how gradual , but how mire was the advance of civilization west ward.
