A SURGICAL WONDER.
One Patient Undergoing Both Trach
Otomy and Gastrotomv

One Patient Undergoing Both Trache-
OtOmY and Gastrotomy.
In the early part of December last, says
the Philadelphia Press of the 2Sth inst,
Anthony Weaver, a Swiss, aged 40 years.
was admitted to the Philadelphia Hos
pital suffering from tumor in the neck.
The unnatural growth had forced the
trachea from its customary position
about two inches and a half around the
throat. This seriously affected his respi-
ration. In January the tumor was re-
moved and DR.. w. S. Janney performed
what is scientifically known as trache-
otomy-the insertion of silver tube
through the flesh of the neck into the
trachea, through which the patient
breathes. Weaver improved rapidly, and
he breathed as easily as though the trachea
was uninjured. The doctors were aston
ished at the patients rapid improvement
in health. The case was subsequently
exhibited before the County Medical So
ciety and the State Medical Association.
and awakened much interest in the opera
tion of tracheotomy.
Recently, however, after many DAYS,
the physicians found that the esophagus
was becoming CONSTRUCTED from some
cause as yet uncertain, and the patient
was unable to swallow food or drink
without great difficulty. 1t was decided
to perform the operation of gastrotomy
upoA the suffering man, in order to keep
him from starving. This operation is per-
formed by making an incision in the
abdominal wall, cutting through the
stomach and then stitching the abdominal
wall and stomach together, after which a
silver tube is inserted in the incision.
around which the flesh is allowed to grow.
The operation was performed yesterday
by Drs. Janney, w. II. PancOast, j. VIM.
White, W. G. Porter and A. S. Roberts.
Through these tubes Anthony Weaver
will receive all the sustenance which will
keep him in the land of the living. The
necessary diet used in this novel way of
feeding will be liquid foods, The opera
tion was very successful, and Weaver
bore all the pain without the use of an
anasthetic. While the operation of gas
trotomY is not new, still it is of sufficient
rarity to attract the attention of physi-
clans throughout the country. There is a
woman now in Jefferson Hospital upon
whom the operation was successfully per-
formed many weeks ago by DR.. Samuel
w. Gross. Weaver's case attracts addi-
tiOnal attention from the fact that his
physicians think it may, perhaps, even
yet be necessary to entirely remove the
trachea. Weaver can talk coherently by
placing finger upon the outer end of the

Having oR a Funeral Garment He was

There has been great deal Of gossip

his presence at the cemetery, while the
Queen did not recognize the propriety of
including him in the list of invitations.
However, be rose superior TO the conven-
tional scruples against dispensing with
q formal summons on such an occa-
sion, and came down from Padding
ton in the guests special train attired
In the full dress which had been
commanded. The approaches TO the
castle and the entrance to st. Georges
were kept by Windsor police, who, of
course, recognized the uninvited guest,
and who, knowing him, and holding him
IN reverence, never thought Of demanding
his ticket. Once in the choir of the !
chapel, however, and he was spotted by
the eagle eye Of Mr.. Ponsonby Fame. It
was impossible under the circumstances
to run the risk of the fuss which a request
to retire might have produced; so the In-
dividual in question was allowed to re-
main, and as every possible seat had been
filled, the result was that it was absolute
ly necessary to place one of the guests
in the Duke of Albany's stall, which
the Queen had ordered to be kept
empty. After the ceremony there was q

Queen, for the use Of the invited company.
The approaches to the platform were vigi-
lantly guarded, and here the good fortune

BISHOP wALKER sroPs A FIGHT

He Breaks Through Crowd of Specta-
tors and Separates the Combatants.
A Wahpeton, OAK, special of June 27
says: While the new Bishop of Dakota,
DIR. Walker, was on visit to a clergy
man Of his diocese. on Sunday, he saw
opposite saloon seventy or eighty men
forming ring around two others who
were engaged in desperate fight. Their
clothes were torn and blood-stained, and
one was nearly blinded. Bishop Walker
broke into the ring, and, going up to one
of the struggling men, who was kicking
the other in the face, attempted to drag
him away. He then said:
"Will no one of you help to separate
these menT'
"Let them have it out" cried some one
in the crowd.
Then the Bishop, lifting himself up to
his full height, his eyes blazing with in
dignation and contempt, said:
lis it possible that the manhood of all
of you IS gone? Are you only wolves /?
Shame on youp'
The whole crowd for moment stood
daZed and amazed. Then four or five
rushed forward and helped the Bishop to
drag the men apart. His hands and clothes
were sOiled with blood in the struggle.
Then, standing between the two men who
were glaring at each other and streaming
with blood. heSasked two or three of the
crowd to take one of the men to his home.
and two or three others to lead the other
man away. This they did. Then the
crowd quietly dispersed.

A NEEDLE ON IT'S TRAVELS.
After Ten Years Journey in a Woman,s
Rndv. il Ia HanIed Ont h., q nnnAr.-

After Ten Years Journey in a WOmRn's
Body, tits Hauled Out by Doctor.
Ten years ago a woman residing in
Harlem, while walking across the floor
in her stocking feet, says the New York
Herald, stepped upon a needle, which en-
tered her right foot between the instep
and joint of the large toe. Several doc
tors tried to extract the needle, but it
seemed to have disappeared. The foot
and leg swelled to great size, and the
woman was confined to her bed for up
wards of three months. Then one evening
her daughter rushed up from the grocery
store beneath, and said that there were
burglars in the house. The mother jumped
out OF bed, and the burglar had lust time
to get his heels out of the back window
before she had cot down the stairs and
WAS after him. When the doctor called
that day his patient was about attending
to her work as she had done before she
met with the mishap. 'That run down
the stairs has cured me, l do believe,'
she said to the doctor, and the latter after
that time was patient less.
1t was but short time afterward. how
ever, that IN lacing her shoe a sharp pain
was found at the instep. This lasted for
several weeks and then there was a prick
few months later was transferred to the
thigh. At the end of a year there was no
further annoyance, and the needle was
soon forgotten, and did not assert itself
again for nine years. A couple of weeks
ago the woman felt a sharp pain at the
point of what the doctors call the ensiform
cartilage, which is located lust at the
lower termination Of the breastbone.
Hospital surgeons said there was a for
eign substance there, and when the needle
incident Of ten years before was recalled
and related to them they advised an ope-
ration. The advice was rejected, but on
Saturday last the pain became so bad that
a physician in East 111th street, was sum-
mOned. just above and to the right of
the umbilicus he found something that
evidently did not belong there. He made
a half inch deep incision about an inch in
length, inserted a pair of nippers and
drew out-eye fOremost-a needle more
than an inch long. 1t had worked Its way
down some three inches from where the
PAIN was first experienced.
When removed the needle was as smooth
and as sharp as the day it was turned out
from the factory, but was colored a dark
blue, somewhat mottled. The Doctor has
carried it in his pOcketbook since Satur-
day, but although it has been carefully
wrapped up it has rusted very much since
it was extracted.
A number Of stories of the travels of
needle through the human system have
been published, but it is said that prob
ably not more than half a dozen are
authentic. 1t would not necessarily cause
death if the needle passed through veins,
the lungs. or even the heart in its erratic
peregrInations through the body.
