The Rev. DR.. Goodwin, Of Quin-
cy, Ill, says the Philadelphia Times,
''has gone home greatly disgusted
with the prevalent methods Of the
banking business. He was q dele
gate to the Methodist Episcopal
Conference, and left home with a
draft on the Marine Bank Of New
York. because he thought II more
convenient than currency. Before
his pocket money was exhausted
the Marine Bank had suspended.
He returned the draft to Quincy
for better funds, and received a
check on the Metropolitan Bank
of Few York, but on the day Of
it's arrival the Metropolitan closed
It's doors, Not discouraged up to
that point, DR.. Goodwin again re-
turned this check to the Quincy
Bank, but by the time 1t reached
his home the Quincy concern had
collapsed, and the minister found
himself penniless In O strange city,
The facts were laid before o gen
tleman, and money enough to take
him home was advanced.n

A Remarkable Operation.
Cutting Bullet 0ltsf The Brain and Saving
the Life sf he Patient.
[St. Louis Post. Dispatch.

New York, May 23.-Professor
Fluhrer, Of the visiting surgical
STAFF of Bellevue Hospital, yester-
day presented to . large gathering
ofmedical gentlemen, among whom
were Profs. Lewis A. Sayre, A.
Post and Charles Mittendorf, Drs.
Anderton, Putnam, jacob and
others, the most remarkable case
of successful surgical operation Of
the brain that ever came under
the observation Of surgeon, and
which still remains unexplained,
from the fact that the patient re-
covered and is ct present enjoying
the best Of health. The case has
no parallel in the aunals Of medical
literature, and until II presented
itself the most eclectic surgeon
would have doubted the possibili.
ty of introducing the knife into
the brain without fatal results.
The patient, Bruno Knorr, who
yesterday sat In the amphitheatre
Of the hospital in the centre OF a
group Of intensely interested ply.
sicians who carefully examined
his head, which was a mass Of
scars, showing where the bone
was cut out, has q remarkable his
tory. He Is q well.formed young
man, and were it not for his much
chopped.up forehead would be
quite good looking. He appears
to be Of q very affectionate dispo-
jtion, which is the cause Of his
strange wound. On the evening
of Jan. 23 last he visited his
sweetheart, and asked her to mar
ry him, but she declined. He
pressed his suit, but was fatty re.
fused, upon which he pulled out a
revolver and fred a bullet into
his brain. The ball entered the
forehead about an inch and hall
above the eyes directly In the cen.
tire. He fell to the ground, the
blood rushing profusely from the
wound. He was supposed to be
dead, but nevertheless he was re.
moved to Bellevue Hospital. Up.
on arriving at that place the junior
surgeons were surprised to find
that he was still alive. Through
the night they sat by his bedside,
intent upon making observations
as to how long he could really live,
and applying only such simple rem.
edies as would ease the last mo.
ments Of a dying man. But they
miscalculated, for in the morning
they found him still alive although
unconscious. Afraid to do any.
thing upon their own responsible.
ty, they telegraphed the visiting
surgeon, Prof. Fluhrer at daybreak,
and he came ct once in response to
the summons, hardly supposing
that he could do anything for the
patient. From certain peculiar
surroundings, however, he had to
undertake o most hazardous oper'
alton, which he described to bis
listeners yesterday while standing
By the side Of the man whose life
he had saved. Finding the pulsa'
tions Of the patient growing weak
er, and life slowly ebbing, he took
the most desperate chances, and
resolved to operate at once
Feeling assured the brain waa

of its substance that oozed through

venlng. On attempting 10 remove
the particles of bone which had
been driven upon the brain matter
by the bullet in its passage and
had set up q dangerous condition
BY their pressure. he met with Q
profase hemorrhage from one Of
the large arteries, which was cut
across its gated edges. scarcely
to be seen. Two attempts to
catch it up proved futile, and real
izing that death from the loss Of
blood under the circumstances was
q matter of moments, he introdu-
ced his finger in the wound and
pressed the artery against the
bone, and for Q time became mas

tired him soon, aud he instruct.
ed his assistant to relieve him
while he again attempted to
catch the end. After five trials
he was successful and placed a
ligature Of catgut around it. The
little vessel, however, was tricky,
and the ligature slipped on, leav-
ing matters worse than before.
Again he tried IL, and at last over
came the obstacle BY tying 1t tightly.
Next he introduced q large bullet.

its own weight about Ave inches
into the brain, when he stopped

entered. He marked o point at
the back Of the head where II
would, IL further pushed, come
out, and there cut on three flaps
around it aud sawed through the
bone, exposing the brain cover
ings in the rear. There he cut
through and met with q mass Of
dark, half clotted blood. mixed
with particles of brain which
floated about. This was carefully
washed out. He passed through
a probe smaller than the first and
felt the bullet, lodged as It was, IN
the brain. With delicate forceps
II was pulled out through the
opening behind. The operation
lasted four hours. A rubber tube
was drawn into the wound through
the channel cut by the bullet, By
means Of which the septic matter

TIE BLESSED aisD.

There Is legend eF an English Monk,
who died at the Monastery Of Aremberg.
where he had copied and illuminated
many books, hoping to be rewarded IN
heaven. Long after bis death his tomb
was opened, and nothing could be seen
Df his remains but the right hand. with
which he had doae his pIous work and
which had been mlraeulously preserved
Irom deeay.l
For you and me. who love the light
or God's uncloistsred day,
II were, indeed. dreary lot.
To shut ourselves away
From every glad and sunny thing
And pleasant sight and sound.
And pass, FROM out silent cell,
Into the silent ground.
Notso the good monk, ,Anselm, thought,
For In hls clolster's shade,
The cheerful faith that III his heart
Its own sweet sunshine made;
And In Its glow he prayed and wrote,
From mstip-song till even,
And trusted In the Book Of Life,
To read his name In heaven.
What holy books his gentle art
Filled full Of sanity lore!
What pages frightened by his hand,
The splendid missdls bore!
What blossoms, almost fragrant, ,twined
Around each blessed name,
And how his Ssviour's cross and crown
Shone out FROM cloud and fame!
But, unto clerk az unto clown,
One summons comes, Away,
And Brother Anselm heard the call,
At vesper-chime, one day.
His bssy pen was In his hand,
His parchment BY his side
He bent him DER the half-writ prayer,
Kissed Jesus' name, and died.
They laid him where windows blaze
Flashed DER the craven stone,
And seemed TO touch his simple name.
With pencil like his own;
And there he slept, and, one by one,
Ills brothers died, the while,
And troopIng years went by and trod
Ills name from OF the aisle.
And lifting up the pavement, then,
An abbot's couch to spread,
They let the Jsweled sunlight In,
Where once lay Anselm's head.

Fall and School.

Fall begins next week and so does school.
Saur is already on hand with his man.
moth stock of all kinds of school books,
states, pencils, inks, pens, paper, compo-
sition books, drawing books and all kinds
OF writing materials, school supplies, etc.,
of every description at very low prices.
Also large variety of school bags and
school satchels, which are sure to please
the children. Many people are annoyed
when they have to buy so many new
books tor their children. Now if they will
just stop to think, they will see that it is
just as necessary to buy books and good
literature with which to feed the mind in
order to have good clear and healthy NEIL
tai faculties as it is to furnish children
good healthy food in order that they may
develop good healthy and robust bodies.
Saur makes speciality of always, during
the fall and winter, keeping his store well
supplied with the latest novelties for the
school room, such things as will be of use
to the child in assisting it to learn, and at
the same time amuse and entertain and
make the rchool room the most attractive
place on earth for the pupil.

Incendiary Fire.

About half-past IL o'clock Sunday night
fire was discovered in the building on the
corner of Perry and Clinton streets, occu
pied by Clewell q Fisk and Chafin's pho.
tograph gallery. The alarm was sounded
and before the flames gained much head
way the fire engine was throwing water
and the fire was soon put out. Clewell &
Fisk sustained loss of about 5000 on theil
grocery stock. Chafin's loss was slight
The building, owned by the Woke estate
was damaged considerable.
The fire was the work of incendiaries
who gained an entrance through the back
door Of the photograph gallery and set fire
to the building in three different places,
having first saturated the wood and what
rubbish they could find with coal oil and
laid long fuses in order that they could
make good their escape. 1t was a we'll
concocted plan to cause big fire but was
luckily nipped in the bud. Had there
been any wind the result would have been
disastrous. Suspicious parties were seen
lurking about town for several days pre-
yious to the fire, and it is at least fair to
presume that they may have had hand
in this bit of diveltry.

Barn Burned.

About 7 o'clock yesterday morning a
barn belonging to Fred Knipp in Harri-
son township, was discovered to be on
fire. The entire contents, consisting OF
some 400 or 500 bushels OF grain, hay and
farming implements, were consumed. 1t
is supposed that some tramps slept in the
barn, and before leaving lit their pipes
dropping sparks of fire into the straw
which soon ignited and spread rapidly
until it was beyond control when discov.
