aud burrs are necessary for TINS, and here
tOfors 40 motor has been foAld which
eoald L. carried about with the physician
aud which would cut the bone rapidly. Dr.
Roberts invented little electric appar-
atns. " hieh Is suspended over the operat-
ing table, aud Is eayable Of whlrling the
drill OF burr twelve thousand revolutions
minute.
The excavation Of the porous bone Was
made ~ith three OF four instruments Of the
same nature as the burr used by dentists
Ia preparing for filings. The joint itself
was left intact. The IncisiOn Was large
enough 20 admit the end Of mans third
finger. When the burr was removed from
tins 70 time, Or. Roberts pushed tiny
electric light into the cavity 70 see how far
the cavity had progressed. After he had
removed all OF the spOngy bone the light
could be seen through semi transparent
hard outer bone at the aides. Finally DR..
Roberts announced that be had completed
the operation. The physicians applauded
him with their hands.
The ailments in which the apparatus will
be used are diseases OF the hip, knee, or
ankle, where the spongy interior OF the
bone, near the joint. is the seat of the dis
ease. The object Of the surgeon Is To re-
move this spOngy bone. Heretofore, often,
the joint also has been removed, and the
limbs shortened thereby. Another method,
which requires from one to six years, is t.
absorb the diseased bone. The invention
/ by DIR. Roberts is TO perform in months
what has heretofore required years.
The sleeps wound was dressed as the
of a human being would have been, and
I the sheep WAS seut 10 the hospital for the
wound TO heal. After few days IL will be

Steigerwald's hotel, on the outskirts of the

purse of so at late hour last night. Some
of their friends tell wonderful stor es of
their powers, and large crowd gathered
TO witness the contest. The diet selected

a great favOrite among the Germans. A
piece of bread with a small bit of this pad
ding is sufficient to appease the
appetite Of the most hungry man of ordi

rived Smiths backer announced that his
man had outdone himself; that in order 20
test his powers for the match he had over
taxed himself and felt i'll from the effects
of eating thirteen pound turkey. Then
Marquette, a skinny man Of ordinary height.
went it alone for the purse which was
raised for him. A pile of the pudding
which was exceedingly rare and fatty, was
placed before him, and he went at it. He
had tasted for several days, and was over
loading apparently weak stomach.
Time" was called and he commenced,
while the hall in which he was eating was

furnished with bread and liquid refresh
