THE S^oATiO'J OF PAIN.

Where do you fool tlso pain? asks the

sician I old hiia he did not feel it there,
but in his head, the average man would

In a.i a ! I: at the University of

lioen obliged to give up tlie iiiea that
sensations •«re spread throughout our
bodies. for |htso!1s who have lost a
limb often fee! sensations that seem to
cotne t'ro.u the missing member.
"Our sensations." said Professor Par
ker. "are not itv. ated in the |ieripberat
parts al:V led, but in the central
nervous system, nnii within that portion
of it known as the cerebral cortex."
This is the outer layer or gray matter
of the brain. One may lose an arm,
yet h..ve the sensation of pain in the
hand, but if a small piece of that par
ticular part of the brain to which run
the s.'Usory nerves from the arm be re
moved. one will never again feel any

be placed i:i the tiro.

GflPT. LARSON
BACK 10 SEA
Carrying In his pocket documents
which are hid credentials as mas
ter of power and sailing- craft for
all the oceans, Captain, Louis Lar
son will probably leave on one of
the next ships for Puget Sound
where he will again enter on a
sea faring life, haying been prof
fered a position as master on one of
the newly constructed vesseli be
longing to his old employer.
Capt. Larson came to Skagway
in 1S97 as master of the steam
schooner Navaro, and the following
year sailed his ship to St. Michales
with a bi& passenger list of Laplan^
era.
For the next few years he sailed
to various ports, but hearing the
call of the north, in 1900 returned
to Skagway as master of his own
vessel, the Bark Camden whclh was
loaded with lumber for the White
Pass railway.
Shortly after hit arrival here be
sold his shJp to the Dyea Railway
company, but as they failed tp meet
the payments on the ship, Capt. Lain
son took the ship into Fortune Bay,
where ho dismantled her, and later
broke her up for the copper that
was in her. Part of the hull of the
old vessel is gtill to be seen at the
extreme north end of the bay.
Since that time he has run vari
ous cannery tenders, being at one
time employed by the old Colum
bia Cannery. For a few seasona he
fiohed the waters of ths Inland Pas»
age, and then gave that up to en
gage in ship building. He has built
38 boats all told, Bome of which
he equipped with power, and were
as fine as some of the smaller pres
sure yachts, while others were but
skiffs.
Realizing that master mariners
are in demand, and the supply in
adequate to meet the demand he
wrote a letter to his old firm
under whose flag he sailed Jn by
gone days, and at once received a
commission which he will accept.
During his residence In Skagway,
Capt. Larson has held the esteem
of all who have known him, and
his presence will be missed by
hifc many friends who we know
join with us in wislhlng him the
same success in future years that
he enjoyed at the hands of old
Neptune in the years ho spent
tossing about from port to port. I
