PROBING THE HUMAN BpDY.
The Kleotrlo Bullet Finder auOJta Mods
. of Operation.
Tho electric tullct finder, or probe, an
Invention of Dr. John II. Glrdnor of Now
York, consists of nn ordlmtry telephone
iwdvor, nn ordinary metal proha' nml nn
extm bulb of tho snmo mctnl that tho
probo Is nmdu of. Inasmuch os there is
no battery connected with tlio nppnratus
“ ’"ay puzxlo even nn cketrlclau to ilia*
r wherein tho electrical element lies.
Just hero is where tho irstrumentassumes
its truly sclentlflo aspect, for its invention
proven that thero is n definite quantity of
•loctrlclty in tho battery which supplies
tho current.
Dr. Glrdnor lmd tried for years to dcvlso
Wrtno surer means of locating bullets than
wns possible with tho onlinnry probe.
Somo years ago aomebody had invented nn
cloctrlo bullet probe which depended on a
battery cell to supply tho current. Bat
tho trouble was that us soon tut tho end of
tho probo was inserted in tho flesh An elec
tric circuit would bo established through
tho Uesh Itself, and the electric bell would
ring. So it was not known whether a
bullet bad boon touched or not.
Ono night it occurred to Dr. Gird tier
that tho lx>dy itself might contain enough
of a current to opernto iv bell or a tolo*
phono receiver. Experiment proved tho
fact. Tho principle of tho inbtrmncnt Is
as follows: Tho mctnl bulb is placed In
tho wounded person'll mouth. Tho tclo-
phono reoelvor is held to tho Burgtsm'rt
ear aud the prolio lu tho hoio mado by tho
bullet. Tho bulb in tho mouth and the
probo a iv mado of tho some metal, copper
being preferred, nnd because they arc
tho same no manifestation is heard iu tho
telephone. But us soon ns tho leaden
bullot is touchtd it brings another metal
into tho circuit. Tho human body then
immediately becomes ono immeuso cell,
which gvncmicft a current strong enough
toopemto tho telephone, so that as soon ns
tho bullet in touctud a click is board in
the telephone, nnd tho location of the bul
let in i^tublislicd beyond udoubt,—-Boston
