all through life. On Oct. 1st, Dr. Patchenwas admitted as a member of the GrandIsle Medical Society.COMMENCES HIS PRACTICE IN CLINTON

COUNTY.H<K>n after 1817, he located and com-

menced practice at West Plafctsburghand in 1820 married Miss Abigail Hilliardof that place.

October 20, 1824, he became a memberof the Clinton County Medical Society,and on the 29th of April, 1831, he wasduly commissioned by Governor Throopas Surgeon of the lf>th Reg't. N. Y. Cav-alry, and in 1844, the medical college ofCaatleton, Vt., conferred upon him thehonorary degree of Doctor of Medicine.

Dr. Patchen was very skillful as a phy-sician and surgeon, and the following isrelated among his remarkable operations:THE RESUSCITATION OK FRANKLIN BROM-

LEY.Bromley was a small child on whom an

operation in tracheotomy had been un-successfully attempted for the removal ofa bean from the wind-pipe by a brotherphysician, and which resulted in greatloss of blood by the cutting of a bloodvessel, and the child was apparently deadas far as external appearances indicated.The following is the doctor's account ofhis procedure after his brother physicianhad ceased his operation:

"My immediate object being to resus-citate the child, not to extract the bean,I commenced my incision near the in-ferior of the thyroid cartilage, and carriedit down to the cricoid. I then slit thecrico-tbyroid membrane from the base ofthe thyroid to the superior margin of thecricoid cartilage, introduced a large elas-tic gum catheter through the orifice ofthe wound into the larynx, and inflatedthe lungs. I carried on artificial respira-tion, accompanied by the use of volatilesand friction, until the lungs had been in-flated fifteen or twenty times before therewere any signs of returning life. I thenobserved motion, which encouraged meto persevere in the measures mentioned.Shortly a gasp, or slight catch for breath,which gradually grew stronger, until hewas able to respire without assistance,which was about one hour."

The child recovered, grew to manhood,and died a few years ago near Platts-burgh, where his widow and some of hischildren now reside.

Dr. Patchen's practice in those pioneerdays was extensive, with long rides overrough roads, all along the valley of theSaranac and in Peru and Ausable. Hewas very sympathetic in his nature,which made him a poor collector. Hisire would sometimes be aroused againstsome one of his non-paying patrons,whom the-doctor thought could easilyhave paid his bill, and the doctor wouldremark: "If Mr. — calls for my ser-vices again he will not get them, no mat-ter how urgent the case may be," but it

. was always noted that when Mr.called, his services were as cheerfullyrendered as though he was one of his bestpaying customers!

His generous and sympathetic naturealways responded to the appeals of theneedy and distressed, and the ''Exile ofErin," and the "Patriot Canadian," alikefound a shelter and a home beneath hisroof, and not one known to be deservingever appealed to him in vain. He waspublic-spirited, and always contributedliberally towards enterprises for educa-tional and religious purposes; was activeand untiring hi his efforts to secure bettereducational facilities for the communityin which he resided.T H E B B C K W I T H S T R E E T A C A D E M Y A N D

W E S T P L A T T S B U R G H H I G H S C H O O L .It was through his exertions, that Alex-

ander Prescott and BelaEdgerton openedtheir academic school in West Platts-burgh in the M. E. church on Beckwithstreet. He was also one of the most zeal-ous workers for the West PlattsburghHigh School, which nourished for someyears under H. C. Foote, G. A. Miller, C.C. Webster and M. Buckham, (now Presi-dent Buckham,) as teachers.

He held the following important civiloffloes: Judge of the Court of CommonPleas of Clinton county, Commissioner ofDeeds, Inspector of Common Schools,Supervisor and Postmaster at SchuylerFalls.

He died at Schuyler Falls on the 7thday of June, 1859. At a meeting of theClinton Co. Medical Society, held the fol-lowing day, suitable resolutions wereadopted, signed by Drs. Bengamin Mooers,T. DeForris and I. P. Foote, Com.

La his annual address, June 6, I860, Dr.F. J. D'Avignon, President of the ClintonCo. Medical Society, paid a warm tributeto his memory.

The doctor's widow survived him tillthe 20th day of February, 1868. Eightof their children yet living are: Mrs.Kate Mason, Miss Sophronia Patchen andMrs. Rebecca Soper, whq. all reside inPlatteburgh, N.

Saranac River Plank Road Co.

Presentment by Clinton County GrandJury.

Court of Oyer and Terminer of theCounty of Clinton, April Term, 1893:

To Hon. M. L. Stover•, Justice:—TheGrand Jury of this county respectfullypresent the following matters to the con-sideration of the Court: Complaint hav-ing been entered before us against the"Saranac River Plank Road Company"for permitting or maintaining a nuisance,we have accordingly inquired into thematter and have examined witnesses inregard to the same, and from the evidenceso obtained and from the personal knowl-edge of nearly every member of the GrandJury we are unable to come to any otherconclusion than that the said plank roadin the present condition is not only anuisance, but is absolutely dangerous tothe traveling public, many of whom can-not avail themselves of any other high-way.

It appears that nothing of any accounthas been done to keep up this road in apassable condition for two or three years;that the whole road is in very bad condi-tion and very much of it absolutely dan-gerous.

It also appears that such company arefully aware of the condition of affairs,but persist in claiming that it is theirproperty, and that they can do as theyplease in the matter, and they will neitherrepair the road themselves, nor surrendertheir charter, and let the towns throughwhich said road passes resume possessionof such parts of the same as originallybelonged to said towns.

This road is one of the principal high-ways leading into the village of Platts-burgh, and it is not only a great loss topeople who have to use such road, but anabsolute disgrace to permit it to remain inits present condition and growing worseevery day. This Grand Jury have, how-ever, thought best to abstain from pre-senting any indictment against the managers of the said Company at this time,thinking that if the attention of the Com-pany were publicly called to the matter(the officers of said Company being amongthe foremost citizens of the county), thatsteps would be immediately taken toeither put the road in a safe condition, orsurrender the same to the towns, whichare willing to accept the same. Itis hard to believe that the citizens of thiscounty, who, in all ordinary matters, areamong the foremost in encouraging allpublic improvements, will further lendtheir aid to continuing this nuisance aftertheir attention has been officially calledto the matter.

It is also the opinion of this Grand Jurythat the liabilities of this Plants RoadCompany for damages likely to accrueowing to the condition of this road aremany times greater than any sum theycould possibly realize by a sale of theirrights in this road.

We therefore beg leave to request thatthis communication be so disposed ofthat the same may come to the personalknowledge of the officers of the saidPlank Road Company, as well as the gen-eral public, as represent ing the opinion ofthis Grand Jury in the matter, and we be-lieve of the public generally.

This communication is adopted unani-mously by this Grand Jury.

'The Best of ChildrenThe publishers of St. Niclwlas, that

famous young folks' magazine, are offer-ing to send a sample copy, free of charge,to any father or mother who would liketo consider the question of taking a chil-dren's magazine during the year to come.

Certainly if that question is up for dis-cussion in any household St. Niclwlaswill be the magazine selected. From itsfirst number, in 1873, the pens of thegreatest writers of the English world, andthe pencils of the best illustrators, havebeen at its service. Tennyson, Longfellow,Bryant, Thomas Hughes, Whittier, BretHarte, Bayard Taylor, Mrs. Burnett, MissAlcott, Donald G. Mitchell, George Mac-donald, Mrs. Oliphant, Professor Proctorare a few of the many great names whichhave been upon its list of contributors.Mrs. Mary Maples Dodge is the editor.Everything in it is illustrated.

IN 1892there are to be serial stories by BranderMatthews, Lieutenant Robert H. Fletcher(the author of that charming book, 4iMar-lorie and Her Papa,") Laura E. Richards,William O. Stoddard, Charles E. Carryi,(the author of "Davy and Goblin,") andFrances Courtenay Baylor. There willbe short stories by Thomas Nelson Page,Mary E. Wilkms, Mary Hallock Foote,Richard Malcolm Johnston, OctaveThanet, General O. O. Howard, and manyothers, with papers of travel and adven-ture by J. T. Trowbridge and LieutenantSchwatka, and useful articles on "HowColumbus Reckoned," "William the Con-queror," "Volcanoes and Earthquakes,""Straight Lines and Circles," etc. In"Strange Corners of Our Country" theGreat American Desert, the Cliff-Dwell-ings of Arizona, and other interestingplaces, will be described, and in "Honorsto the Flag" and "Boys and the NationalGuard" the patriotism of the young read-era will be aroused and stimulated.Julian Ralph is to describe "The Makingof a Great Newspaper," and the arc andincandescent electric lights are to beclearly explained.

A P P L I E D C H R I S T I A N I T Y 'is what St, Nicholas teaches;—unselfish-ness, faithfulness, courage, truthfulness—these things are taught in a hunred waysby stories, poems, and pictures. Do youneed such an assistant in your work withyour boys and girls ? If so, and if youare not already familiar with St. Nicholas,send a postal card to the Century Co.,Union Square, New York, N. Y., and askto see a sample copy. A year's subscrip-tion to St. Nicholas makes a splendidChristmas present, for it brings Christ-mas twelve times a year.

Delaware and Hudson Cutting:Through Solid Rock at CrownPoint.

A special dispatch from Crown Pointto the Argus gives the following factsrelative to the Delaware and Hudsonimprovements at that place:

The Delaware and Hudson Canal com-pany are completing a titanic work inthis vicinity—that of hewing a road bedthrough the mountain side near the headof Bulwagga bay between this stationand Port Henry, to take the permanentplace of the old fill, whioh sank with itstrack and the locomotive of a freighttrain last July. The cut leaves the pres-ent track and bears to the west, and fol-lowing the segment of a circle will enterthe old track again 2,500 feet to the northof the starting point. The cut is madeentirely through a hard and tough lime-stone, and varies in depth from five tofifty-one feet, having an average depth oftwenty-five feet, and requiring the blast-ing and removal of 30,000 cubic yards, atthe cost of about $50,000.

This work is being done under the gen-eral supervision of Chief Engineer A. J.Swift, by the contractor, the Hon. JamesShanahan, ex-superintendent of publicworks, and under his personal supervis-ion. Three-fourths of the deep fock-cut-ting was sub-let to the Drake & Strattoncompany, limited, who are performingthe work under the superintendence ofJohn J. Cunningham of Sandy Hill. Thework was commenced Jan. 20, no idlershave been tolerated on the job, and theroadbed will be completed in readinessfor the track layers and ballasters May 1.

Since the sinking of the track last sum-mer its space has been passed over on atemporary trestle.

An U n p l e a s a n t E x p e r i e n c e .Henry Denton had quite an experience

on Lake George one day last week.While crossing from the Roger's RockHotel across Stone's bay, he droppedthrough the ice near Coates' point. Hemanaged to crawl out and rolled alongon the honeycombed ice until he foundit solid enough to walk to the shore.Many aj younger man would have beenprostrated by such an adventure, but hecame out all right.

The barrels In question had been rolledoff of the steamer and rested on the dock in allmanner of shapes, blocking the passage almostentirely. "Its none of my business about thosebarrels," says our picket soldier, and he added:"I would not touch or roll them away, not IfGeneral Grant should order me to himself." Atthis, the stranger stopped and rolled the barrelaround so as to make a passable roadway fromthe «hlp and went on.
