Cutting out a Kidney.
TIE TENTH OPERATION OF THE KIND
KNOWN IN AMERICAN SURGERY
PERFORMED LAST MONTH

An operation of an advanced nature
in the science of surgery has recently
been performed in this city, remarkable
for the danger attending its perform.
ance, except by the most skillful sur
geons, and also rs being the first of the
kind that has ever been successfully
performed in this State, the tenth in
the United States and the seventy.
sixth, it is said, on record in the world
The operation consisted in the extirpa
ton or cutting out of kidney, known
to the profession as nephrectomv. The
patient was a married lady residing in
this city.
The operation was performed on
October I by Dr. de Vecchi ACCORDING
to the method of Knowlsley Thornton
who, at the Samaritan Hospital, Lon.
don, removed the right kidney from q
young girl on the llth of last month
The surgeon made an incision of three
inches down to the peritoneum, and
then extended it to five inches. Afte,
tearing with the hand few recent
adhesions, the enlarged kidney wa,
lalstd, the measures necessary &c
prevent hemorrhage were adopted anG
the organ was then cut from its attach
ments, No hemorrhage occurred anC
the smaller vessels We're carefully tieC
with catgut, After the usual process o.
cleaning the wound the incislon wa,
sewed up, lightly dressed and tn,
patient was put to bed OF course sh,
was IN condition that required careful
treatment to keep her from sinking
This consisted mainly in administerin
stimulants, and without any relapse O
unfavorable symptoms she recoyerc,
rapidly and is now entirely out of dan
germ fact, almost entirely well. Tn,
lady is rather young and Of delicat
constitution.
This is the second attempt that ha
been made to perform this operation il
this State, The first one was mad
some years ago by a physician in thi
city, and the patient, who was female
died under the operation. This is tn
first time it has been successfully done

Use of Coal.

About the beginning of the thir-
tcenth century much objection was
raised against its introduction into
London on the plea that its smoke was
an intolerable nuisance. This opposi-
ton was continued for nearly POO
wears III some quarters, but was at last
obliged to give way before the grow
ing scarcity of timber Toward the
beginning of the fourteenth century
many shallow collieres were opened
out in the neighborhood of Newcastle
on-Tyne, but little is known about the
progress of our subject during the
course Of the fifteenth century. There
is enough to show however, that the
demand for coal wcut on increasing.
In petition presented to the Council
by the Company of Brewers in 1873
we find that corporation offering to use
wood only in the neighborhood of
Westminster Palace, as they under
stand that the Queen tindeth 'hersealfe
greatIey grevd and annoyed with the
tastes and smoke of the sea coolies"
Another author writing in 1921 says
that "within thirty years last the nice
danes of London would not come into
any house or room when sea-coals were
burned, nor willingly eat of the meat
that was either sod or roasted with sea-
coal fire. Soon after the commence
ment OF the seventeenth century the
use of coal for domestic purposes, as
well as for washing, brewing, dyeing,
etc, was general and complete. The
mines were still shallow, and they
were drained by means of horizontal
tunnels called adlts, water gates. etc
Already attempts had been made to
sink some of them under water level
and 20 raise the water by machinery
In the year l4S6-7 the monks of
Finchdale Priory expended a sum of
money at one of their colieries on the
Wear ION the new ordinance of the
pump and on the purchase of horses
to work it. Underground fires and
noXlous gases began also to ap-
pear about this time. The miners
tools consisted of a pick, a ham
mer, wedge, and wooden shovel.
| The coal was raised to the surface in
some cases by means of a windlass, in
Others, as in the mines of the East of
Scotland,it was carried up stairs on the
backs of women, called coal-bearers.
In the year 1915 the fleet of vessels
called the coal fleet, which carried the
produce of the Northern collieries-
one half to London, the remainder to
other destinations-numbercd 400 sail.
Many foreign vessels also, especially
French, carried away cargoes of coal
to their respective countries, Twenty
years later the coal fleet had increased
to 600 or 700 sail, and was already re-
garded as "a great nursery, of seamen. +"

me was inviolably kept and twenty
nine years afterward, while attending
a National Republican Convention at
Chicago, John Whitney, who then re-
sided there, called TO say that he want
ed me TO write out what hc once told
me about Morgan's fate, TO be signed
by him in the presence of witnesses, to
be sealed mp and published after his
death. | promised TO do so before
leaving Chicago. There was no leisure,
however, during the sitting of the con.
vention, and even before its final ad-
iournment forgetting what ! had told
Whitney, hurried to Iowa, returning
by way of Springfield to visit Mr.. Lin
coin. In the excitement Of the canvass
which followed, and the secession of
the Southern States upon Mr.. Lincolns
election, | neglected the important
duty of securing the confession Whit
uey was so anxious 20 make. In 1861
went to Europe and while in London
wrote letter to Whitney asking him
to get Alex. Is. Williams, then resi-
dent of Chicago, TO do what | had so
mpardonably neglected That letter
reached Chicago one week after Whit
ney's death, closing the last and only
chance for the revelation OF that i'm

fess she does seem changed
"For the better. Grant -eh - said
the old man, gleefuly "She has
changed for the better Hasn't she,
GrantP'
Certainly" answered Grant, blush
ing fearfully, as he put up n mental
petition to be forgiven for lying
And she loves the old man Just as
WELL continued Mr.. Ludwick ioyfully
"lIow lucky that you did not come
before She only reached home this
morning by the early train. What
made her run away so soon, Grant ?"
"Your daughter is here answered
the young man, pointing to the blush
ing face encircled by the dark curls.
You don't mean to say, Grant you
thought that was Amy? Aud the old man
burst into an uprorlous shout of laugh
ter. That's Alice Ludwick. Amy's
cousin. Don't you remember how
much they looked alike? Amy has
changed more than she. warrant
she is in the bower Lets surprise
her.
Grant Burchard gave a great sigh
of relief, and the whole party went
into the garden. There was the eglan-
tine bower, carefully kept; and even
now a fair woman with a white dress
of the purest white was on a step-lad-
der pruning the overhanging branches,
singing, meanwhile, in the sweetest
strains, "Ever of Thee, I'm Fondly
Dreaming.
Ralph Emery listened and exclaim-
ed:
at is the voice we heard last night. :"
Grant Burchard stepped hastily for
ward. All unconscious Amy contin-
ued her pruning, only stopping when
the gardener spoke:
Miss Amy, you had better let me
do that.
"No, no, John" she answered, laugh
ing. 1T frightens me to see you cut
away these beautiful branches. 1t
grieyes me to sever single twig, and
You mop off great branches without
pang of remorse.
Well, Miss Amy, it is as | say
Your sweet ladyship is stingy of moth
ing but sweet brier.
"Stingy, eh?' and Amy laughed
meirly. "No, John; not stingy, only
economical with something that al
ways gave me pleasure. Now, come,
take these branches
Grant superseded John, and with
extended arms received the weight of
the sweet brier He did not move,
and Amy said, without looking:
THAT will do, John; now 90.
Still he moved not. She looked
around with surprise, and started at
the tableau--a handsome stranger
gazing at her with his extended arms
full Of sweet brier.
II am waiting for the rest, Amy
waiting for the little woman who used
to tease and please until | learned to
call her Sweet Brier.'
She knew, then, it was Grant, and
with a glad cry came bounding down
the steps and was received into his
arms.
Amy Ludwck was study that day
Grant Burchard watched her with a
loving pride. There was nothing in
her dress, manners or conversation to
offend She was an educated and cul-
tiyated woman. At the close of the
day he said to his friend:
Emery, you have lost your wager.
Was | not wise to cling to my old
love p
"Be generous, now, and don't cling
any longer replied Ralph Emery.
Il will try to compensate her for her
loss
Grant Burchards black eyes twin,
kled as he answered.:
"Pardon me, but in the language of
another, i don't see it.

Tine Babes in the Wood was never

survived of performance which was
destined to revolutionze the comic lect
Wlng OF the age. The Babes seem
only to have Hecn alluded to twice
that at the beginning when the lecturer
grayeIy announced The Babes as his
subject, and then, after rambling
string otireIevant wittcismS, which last
ed from an hourto an hour aad half.he
concluded with: II now come to my sub

taking out his watch, his countenance
would suddenly change, surprise follow

the difficulty rs best as he could, he
continued; but | find have exceed

NIGHT hGIIrs IN BED RooMs.-The
common practice of having might
lights in bed rooms of children is
deprecated by DR. Robert ii, Bake,
well lie says it has a most injurious
effect upon the nervous system Of
young children, Instead of the per
feet rest the optic nerves ought to
have, and which nature provides for
by the darkness of the night, these
nerves are perpetually stimulated, and
of course the brain and the rest of the
nervous system suffer, Children thus
brought NJ are excessively tmid for
years after going into the dark. If a
light is used at all il should be turned
down to a mere point, and placed
where it cannot be seen by the child.
