IAN INFANTS EAR"
An Interesting Operation in the
Receiving Hospital.

Police Surgeon Williams was closing up
his days work yesterday afternoon when a
man, who had the appearance of being
sailor, staggered into the Receiving Hos
pital with his head in bandage and blood
running down the sides of his face.
The man was in an intoxicated condition
and seemed to make light of the wound he
had received. On examination after the re-
moval Of the bandages the left ear was dis
covered to be almost entirely gone, but the
fellow could give no rational explanation as
to how he had lost his aural appendage.
The manner in which the entire top of
the ear had been severed was most peculiar
and had every appearance of having been
actually pulled off, the exposed surface OF
the wound being jagged and rough. The
case was not one of mayhem as there was
no impression of teeth, and it would have
been impossible to so cut off the ear with
even the dullest instrument.
DIR. Williams proceeded to dress the
wound, when the patient, who had given
the name Of William Davis, rose from his
chair, and, balancing himself as well as he
could, fumbled in his pockets and pulled
out package. This he carefully united,
and exposed to view the missing piece OF
ear, which he held I'D with an air of
triumph and asked to have sewed on.
After examining the wound, DIR. Williams
said that it was impossible to reattach the
severed ear, as the wound was too irregular
and the piece of ear too black. The surgeon
made for the patient what is known in
surgery as an infants ear" that is he
brought the upper and lower points of the
wound together and sewed them. Davis
left ear, after his wound heals, will re-
semble that of child.
The hospital surgeon took the severed
piece and, after treating it with alcohol,
placed it among the relics of the hospital.
after his injury was dressed was better able
to talk, and explained that while in bar
room on Main street he fell down. his ear
catching between two beer barrels and tear
ing off

UKIaH NOTES.

Items of Interest From the Principal
City of MepdociDo County.
Like many other cities and towns of the
Coast, Ukiah has been disappointed in the
number Of her population, falling below the
general estimate by six hundred. The
number submitted by our Census Super
visor for the town is 1923.
There are many improvements going on
here. Eight new stores are nearly ready
for occupancy, all modern style.
On Monday next the Mendocino Asylum
Commissioners will open bids for the con-
struction of our State Insane Asylum, but
owing to the fact that two of the Asylum
Commissioners are delegates to the Republi-
can State Convention which meets at
Sacramento, August 18th, and as Governor
Waterman BOruck" will need all of his
appointees in the State Convention in order
to defeat his enemy, Markham, delay of
some days will be caused by this great
event, before the contract can be awarded.
Ukiah and vicinity, or Mendocino County,
has never had what is called boom. Peo-
pie here always have had high expectations
of the future value OF property, but of late
these opinions have come down to the more
common-sense proposition that property
must be valued at something near the in

Abraham Jackson married his wife,

were born to them-a son, Herman, and a
daughter. Rebecca. Twelve years after
their marriage they moved TO New York,
where jackson worked at the GLACIERS
trade and maintained his family in moder-
ate comfort
His son. Herman, had grown to manhood
and his daughter, Rebecca, was about to be

good wife, Augusta, remained Of those for
whom jackson had to provide, and it was
then that his eyes were turned toward the
golden shores of California. He conceived
that better chance to make competence
could be found in this favored land, and so,
leaving his wife in the care of her children,
lie set out for the far West.
Mrs. Jackson heard from her husband
regularly by letter for five years. He always
Enclosed money and spoke of soon sending
for her to come out to him. but lie kept de-
ferriDg the time on various preteXts. Nine
years ago the letters suddenly stopped and
Mrs. Jackson heard no more of her hus-
band. She lived with her children, who
supported her, they having become well-to-
do.
Some weeks ago Mrs. Jackson determined
to seek her husband and set out for San
francisco. For time after arriving she
searched the city without discovering any
tidings of him, but at last she found that he
lived on Jessie street, and that he had been
married to another woman for nine years.
A Jewish Rabbi named Silverstein had
told him that his first wife, Augusta, was
dead, and lie believing the story, mourned
Tor her awhile and then married his second
wife. The first wife asked him to come
back to her, but he refused. She had grown
old and the new wife was more attractive.
Yesterday the first wife, incensed at his
refusal. had him arrested for bigamy.

EXCITED MARKETS.
Wheat Quotations Aft .cted by Reports
Frost in the Enrfhwest

Wheat Quotations Af=c by Reports of
Frost in the Northwest.
CHICAGO, Aug. 9.-There were lively
times in wheat at the opening of the Board
of Trade this morning. A heavy drop in
the temperature in the Northwest, with re-
ports of frost in Manitoba, scared the
shorts. December wheat opened at 98Ac
and advanced to 81 02. By this time opera
tors began to recover their heads and the
market broke to 81 COZ, rallied to ST. 01%s,
reached 81 01% and at II 80 it stood at 81 o.
Corn is also strong in sympathy with wheat,
September options fiuetuating between 49c
and SOC. The significance in the report of
frOsts lies in the statement that the wheat
harvest has not begun yet and the wheat
there is in the milk, and that severe frost
would ruin the crop.
NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-Tbe wheat market
was vii to-day, and among the shorts the
greatest anxiety prevailed. There was
quiet opening, but the demand to fill buy
ing orders from Wall street and Chicago
started an advance and reports of frost in
the extreme Northwest caused intense ex-
element. Prices went up with a rush.
Wheat advanced Sc, corn 1Ac and oats lac,
before the close. After the Exchange
closed nearly all the brokers remained to
wait for the publication Of Government
crop reports, ana tile bidding for all active
options continued, December advancing
1Ac from the closing price of 81 OF.

MISSION ROAD CLUB.

Discussion as to improvements in That
Neglected Locality.
The semi-monthly meeting of the Excel
sior and Mission Road Improvement Club
was held last evening in Excelsior hall,
near the Five-mile House. with j. W. Sturke
presiding. Peter Diehl was elected Vice
President and d. Reineke, Treasurer.
The President stated that the committee
had visited Chief of Police Crowley to ask
for police protection in that part of the city,
but was told that he is unable to supply
mounted police without an act of the Leg
islature.
The Secretary announced that the sur
veying party had reached Silver avenue,
but had turned back and is going over the
same ground again. He further stated that
the property-owners III that vicinity are
not moving their houses as rapidly as they
should. Superintendent of Streets Ash
worth, when Intercepted, stated that he
was pushing street work as rapidly as pos
sible, but as he he has only two horses at
work great deal of 1iseontentis manifested
Mr.. Bartlett, eX-President of the Fedora
tion Of improvement Clubs, addressed the
club on the need of all members working
together and with energy. AS he said: SIT
is the only way to make the Street Com
mttee and the Supervisors do anything for
for the locality"
Mr. Parker, Treasurer of the federation,
also SPOKE III lnt SAINT SlIdlu, ds ulu MI.
Barry of the Paramount and Mission Club,
who urged the club to combine for its own
benefit, and alluded to the way in which by
the aid of their lady workers the committee
from his club had called on the Supervisors,
and after great deal Of hard work bad the
tanneries removed from the vicinity of
Twenty-elghth and Dolores streets.
Mr.. P. +. Dolan further addressed the
club, and, speaking of the various benefits
derived from the formation of improve
ment clubs, counseled the sending of dele
gates to the federation, also to state plainly
just what is wanted. and that the fedora
ton would give help.
Mr.. Diehl had something to say regarding
the streets in that vicinity, and pointed out
China avenue as street over which school
children were passing every day, and which
should be improved. He thought that the
city should improve that street by all
means, and that for that purpose the pris-
oners from the House of Correction could
be employed at little expense.
