WONDERFUL SURGERY.
A Woman's Face That Had Been Eaten Away
Restored by Transplanting.

A Womans Face That Had Been Eaten Away
Restored by Transplanting.
New YORK, Dec. 27.-Mrs. A. B.
Pullman is lying at the Mount Sinai hos
pital, the victim of a strange and terri
bic disease, and the subject of an almost
equally terrible cure. The lady is sixty
two wears of age and, apart from the
rarity of the malady and the singularity
of the curative treatment, the case IS
remarkable for the extraordinary vitality
evinced by the aged patient. Nearly
twelve years ago, Mrs. Pullman, who at
the time was resident of Chicago, de-
tected upon her right cheek minute
pimple of a deep scarlet hue. This IN
creased in size rapidly and became quite
painful Skilled physicians and special
lists in skin diseases were powerless to
check the disease, which destroyed skin,
flesh and cartilage as it spread until the
poor sufferers face became terrible
sight.
When Mrs. Pullmanls arrived at the hos
pital Drs. Lilientha, LadensN ana
Nichols made an examination and pro-
nounced the af1iictlon to be "lupus," a
rare and malignant type of tuburculous
they cut away the diseased parts, using
the scalpel with such freedom that there
was at the end of the operation almost no
flesh left on the front of the face, with
the exception of the chin and portion of
the forehead. Contrary to the eXpecta-
tions, the patient rallied, and, for the
first time in twelve years, had an
unhroken hours sleep. The cheek
wounds began to granulate, the forehead
incision healed rapidly, and within two
months the sufferer declared that she was
practically free from pain, and that
cure had to all intents and purposes been
effected. But the doctors did not con-
slider that their task was finished. Par
ticles of skin, ranging in size from pin s
point to bits half the size of q dime, were
taken from Mrs. Pullman neck and
transplanted to her forehead and
cheeks. This operation, too, was
quite successful, and to-day all that
remains of the wound in the forehead is a
reddish mark the size of bean. There
now remained the nose and lip. For the
first it is proposed to use an ordinary
artificial nose, but for the second the ex-
IRENE art of the surgeon is brought into
play "a narrow slip of flesh is to be cut
from each side of the cheek out of the
new healthy flesh. This will be cut on
three sides only, then turned
back and over, meeting be-
meath the nose and forming
what in the future is TO be the upper lip.
The two edges will be joined without the
use of thread. The inner surface of the
slip being turned outward will give the
natural color to the edge of the lip. And
so thus cured, Mrs. Pullman, while bear
ing with her for the rest of her life scars
of the terrible lupus - will neverthe-
less be fairly presentable and standing
proof of the scientific skill Of the modern
surgeon

than the rest. His antagonists are less
inclined to interrupt him. ingalls, might
do this, and then there would be the
sharp fash of flint and steel. AS he
stands behind his desk, with his chest
swelled out and his head set close down
upon very short neck, between his
broad shoulders, his attitude conveys
challenge. But he is always courteous
and ready to yield to interruption though
the questioner may not always find salts
faction in his reply.
MIR. SHERMAN
attaches less importance to formality
than does Mr.. EdInunds. He never re-
sorts to it for effect. He is courteous to
his colleagues in debate, and nothing
more. There is a cold, metallic sound
in his voice, and there is nothing emo
tional III his manner. He makes no
effort to display grace i'll either his forms
of speech or his attitude and movements.
He never plays with his antagonist. He
is more like schoolmaster trying to IN
struct. He appears TO know it all, and
to be merely imparting knowledge to
correct the errors of the opposition. He
is sharp, ringing and emphatic. He is q
repository of information, which he Is
skillful in using.

spun than MIR. Edmunds pleasantly
He appreciates q good point, even when
made against himself. His eyes sparkle
under his shaggy brow and occasionally
when he sees a weakness i'll his an
tagonist IS logic he has way of looking
up from under that brow toward the
gallery, with an amused and inquiring
expression, as if to know if the point
was seen there as he saw it. When he
desires to impress his hearers especially
he flashes suddenly out of his amiable
expression and speaks with bold, deep
earnestness of manner, which diScon-
certs the average antagonist he meets
with.
With a consciousness of physical powers
Mr. Hiscock shakes his name and seems
to roar. He has way of asking ques-
tions, as if he had some peculiar informa-
ton on the subject, in way to frighten
the antagonist from reply. He has
way of walking into a controversy be-
tween two others, when his side appears
to be losing ground and of frightening off
the enemy.
Aldrch is keen and clearheaded in de-
bate, armed with q bright but serious wit
and with self confidence. He looks and
acts like the most thoroughly awake man
in the senate.

MIXED MARRIAGES.
The Catholics Desire to Learn What
Effect Intermarriage With Protest
ants Has Had Upon the Church.
Philadelphia Record.

The results of the intermarriage OF
Catholics and Protestants are being IN
vestigated by the Catholic authorities of
this country under orders from Rome.
Archbishop Ryan, in common with all
other archbishops and bishops, is engaged
in the work, and the result of his in
quirles will be transmitted to Rome :.
While the Catholic church permits such
marriages under certain circumstances
its priests always do all in their power to
discourage them, because of trouble that
frequently arises between the father and
mother as to how the children shall be
raised, and for the further reason that
oftentimes the Catholic husband or wife
is lost to the church altogether through
neglect to obey its laws.
THE POINTS TO BE LEARNED.
Archbishop RYAN said last evening that
he was engaged in collecting data relative
to the number of mixed marriages in each
parish during the past ten years; whether
the promises eXacted by the church that
the children shall be reared i'll the Cath
olic faith have been faithfully kept; III
how many cases the Protestant parties
have been converted; if any cases have
occurred where the Catholic parties nave
apostacized from the faith. and the
number of children who have been lost to
the church through mixed marriages.
The archbishop stated that he presumed
that similar efforts were being made to
collect the same information in all the
dioceses of the United States.
HOW MARRIAGES CAN BE EFFECTED.
The request for this Information comes
from the sacred college of the inquisi-
ton at Rome, but it is not publicly known
what the authorities there propose to do
in the matter. The marriage of Catho-
lie and Protestant is not permitted in
any diocese unless special dispensatiOn
shall be granted by the bishop. There
are different rules i'll vogue in the various
dioceses under which such dispensations
are allowed. In certain dioceses the
rules are more stringent than in others :,
because of the various views entertained
on the subject by different bishops.
sURAIISEs AS TO TIE CENSUS.
In the dioceses of Trenton and
Newark, N. J ,. the conditions under
which dispensation can be granted are
particularly stringent 1t has been sur
missed that one of the motives that has
actuated the sacred college is the desire
to ascertain the success achieved by the
operation of the existing rules so as to
promulgate certain general laws that will
govern the matter i'll every diocese.

violated pennsylvania,s Constitution,

HARRISBURG, Pa. Dec. 80 .-Attorney-
General Kirkpatrick this afternoon filed
an application before Judge Simonton
asking for a writ quo warranto, citing
the Western Union Telegraph Company
the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph Com
pany and the Baltimore and Ohio Tele-
graph Company of Pennsylvania, into
court to show cause why they should
not forfeit their stock, lines and fran
chises for violating the constitution of
the state by consolidating. The attor-
ney-general alleges that the Western
Union on October 10, 1887, purchased the
whole of the capital stock OF the Balti-
more and Ohio Telegraph for So 900 ZOO
directly in violation of the constitution
which forbids the purchase of competing
lines. The court granted the writ ,
making it returnable January 26.

Dave walker gave the following account
of the way
TIVE PRISONERS ESCAPED: D.
The hole in the wall of the jail which was
about fourteen inches square was made
by persons on the outside, and shortly
before 2 O'Clock they crawled through it
and with KEYS, opened the cell doors and
told all the prisoners TO come out. wal
ker and his son and Kalib Rucker refused
TO go Rucker was then bound and
gagged. and the resouers would
have served the two Walkers
in the same way, but they
resisted and were permitted to remain i'll
their cells. The whole thing was done
in the dark. None of the prisoners had
any trouble of getting through the hole
executing John Matthews, who is a large
man and had to be dragged through by
his confederates As soon as the men
were out of hearing Dave Walker called
loudly for Sheriff Johnson, who
with his family live in the
second story OF the jail, but it
was then too late to capture the fugl-
tives, who had disappeared in the dark
ness. Walker says he did not go with
the rescuers because he did not wish to
20 that way. He anticipates commute
ton of sentence, and his son says he pre-
fers to be hanged rather than be hunted
and bounded by officers. There is no
clue to the parties who released the
prisoners, but it is believed they are
some of the members of the Bald Knob
Der gang. Sheriff johnson and deputies
are out on the hunt and expect to capture
the fugitives, but the general opinion is
they have been furnished with fleet
horses and if they are overtaken they
will not be captured alive.

WHAT HE PRAYED.
Evangelist Barnes Makes Startling Speech
From the Pulpit in Louisville.
Pittsburg Commercial Gazette


a thousand people were startled on
Sunday night when the Rev. George o.
Barnes, the famous evangelist, said
while preahing to congregation in Lou
isville: 81 have prayed all my life, and
pray now, that when die God will send
me TO hell. Yes, I pray now to go to
hell.
1t was an unlocked for uiterance even
from one as erratic in his doctrines as
the celebrated Kentucky evangelist. The
explanation of such a remarkable desire
on the part of a minister came with its
expression in the shape of an announce
ment of new theory or belief as to the
hereafter.
3. Rev. Mr.. Barnes was preaching on
s'The Resurrection and the punishment
That Would be Melted Out to
Those Who Sin in This Life. He
said to the idea that a man should
be condemned to eternal punishment
for the sins he could permit in Lhree-score
and ten years was one worthy only of the
devil and the Bible did not bear out such
doctrine. Every person, said Mr..
