Had Four Stomaehs.

New YORK, May 29.-[Special. IA
most curious case recently came under
observation in a private hospital in
this city. Miss MOnross is 20 years of
age and the daughter of a well known
paint manufacturer in Brooklyn. She
is tall blonde, rather thin, very grace
full in movement and has enioyed the
best of health from earliest childhood,
until within the last few months. A
singular feature of her whole life has
been her enormous appetite. There
was no limit to it and she never saw
the time when she could not have eaten
more. Quite often when no strangers
were near her appetite was given full
swing and she would eat
enough for dozen healthy people and
would still yearn for more. She required
little sleep, three or four out of "a
seeming sufficient. Some time ago she
was taken sick with symptoms of dys-
pepsia, and her abdomen commenced
swelling in an abnormal manner. She
grew worse and was Immediately taken
to the hospital and the doctors decided
that she had an internal tumor, which
had to be removed. The patient was
chlorofofmed and an incision made in
the abdomen. The stomach was found
to be pushed out of place by three
smaller similar pouches and one of
enormous size. All were attached to
the aesophagus, and, excepting the large
one, had an outlet into the duodenum.
Thus there were four good stomachs
capable of performing their functions,
but all the food that passed into the big
one remained there without means of
exit. This caused swelling
and the decomposition of food
a caused horrible odor from the patients
mouth and skin. BY careful surgical
operation the large ponch weighing 16
pounds was removed and the wound
closed up, leaving four stomachs inside.

The Board of Pardons Grants Him Sixty
Days of Life.
COLUMBUS, o., May 28.-The Board
of PardOns held meeting this after
noon to hear the application of "Blinky"
Morgan for Communication of his sem
tence of death to Imprisonment for life
and stay of execution for sixty days
in order that his attorneys might pre-
pare and argue his case S. NJ. Eddy,
of Cleveland, and Mr.. johnson, of
Elyria, argued for Morgan, and Prose-
cutor Maxson, of Ravenna, and John
McSweeney for the State. S. NJ. Eddy
made a statement of the case to the
Board, asking for stay of execution
for sixty days in order that arguments
and papers for Communication of SEN
tence to imprisonment for life might
be heard. He argued that Morgan had
been convicted during great public ex-
citement and at time when the news
papers were demanding a conviction.
He also urged that Robinson and
Coughlin, who were convicted at the
same time, had been granted new trials,
and the indictment agkinst one nol!ed,
as additional grounds for the postpone
ment. Prosecutor Maxson said that
Morgan had been fairly convicted and
no new grounds or evidence had been
secured for communication of sentence,
and there was no reason why the law
should not take its course.

Why Do L Suffer So

The courteous physician answers: "If
you inquire what is the couse of all
this mischief, it is typhoid liver. That
organ, you are aware, is the largest
gland in the body, and its office is to
carry off the waste of the system.
When it fails to do its proper work, the
refuse of the body is re-absorbed and
goes circulating round and round in the
blood, poisoning, not nurshing, the It's

in this way am at loss to understand,

NEW YORK, May 29-Dr. McGlynn,
