WONDERFUL SURGERY.
Pieces Of Chicken Bone Grated
On a Mans Thigh.
A Pistol Ball Extracted After Six Years at
the German Hospital-The Operation a
Complete Success.

d. W. Mackenzie has reason to congratu-
late himself on living in the latter part of
the nineteenth century and ON the advances
made by surgical science during the last
few years.
Mr.. Mackenzie is we'll known mining
expert. He has been Superintendent of the
Eureka and other large mines aud his judy
ment on mining matters is held in high re-
spect and much sought after.
Six years ago, while engaged in business
In Colorado Mr.. Mackenzie was shot in a
dispute, the ball lodging in the marrow of
the thigh bone. Efforts to extract it proved
unsuccessful, and for six years Mr.. Mac
kenzie has tried various doctors, but has
obtained no relief. The wound. too, refuse
to close and occasioned great discomfort by
constantly suppurating and dscharging.
AT last, acting on the advice of friends he
became a patient in the German Hospital
and placed himself under the care of Dr.
Morse.
This was a month ago. DR.. Morse la id
the siX-year-Old wound open and success
fully extracted the ball. Then came the re-
markable part of the operation. The ball
had shattered the thigh-bone and torn the
tendOns, and it was necessary to reknIt the
tendons and build up the bone afresh If the
operation was to be complete success.
For this purpose the upper bones of
chicken legs were taken. Small pieces of
them were laid on the surface of the thigh
bone and fitted together with the greatest
nicely. The torn tendons were also re-
placed by pieces of tendon taken from
chickens.
This was done some three weeks ago, and
the operation so far has been complete
success and promises to make Mr.. Mackenzie
as fit as he ever was. The wound is rapidly
healing and closing up. The opening was
large enough two weeks ago to allow the
insertion of two OF DR.. Morse's fingers.
There is scarcely room now for the passage
of his little finger. MIR. Mackenze's general
health is also good, and he is allowed diet
of solid nature.
Both the resident physician at the hos
pital and DR.. Morse refuse to say word
about the case on the grounds that to give
information about patients is unprofesSional
conduct. 1t was admitted at the hospital
that Mr.. Mackenzie was a patient there,
that he had been operated on and was doing
well, but nothing further could be learned.

The Frustrating shncI1s

OF maaral fever are not to be counteracted by qui
nine with any degree of certainty, or for any
length of time. The eradication and prevention of
diseases of miasmatic type are, however asceI-
tained possibilities. Long experience has shown
that there is infinitely more preventive efficacy in
the fine botanic medicine, Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters than in the akalolds, drugs and posons which
were formerly the only recognized means OF remoy-
Ing and anticipating attacks of fever and ague and
bilious remittent When the system has been d.
pleted by periodically recurring paroxysms, this
agreeable restorative renews the fund Of energy,
and is not only positive specific, but repairs the
damage to the general health inflicted by all
febTile complaints partaking of the malarlal char

STRONG SALMON.

Two Hundred and Fifty Dozen Cans siezed
by an Inspector.
Market Inspector Wray stirred up a big
comm otion In Kaufman's grocery-store yes
terday by Selling 80 dozen cans of salmon.
Complaints had been made TO him that rot
ten salmon was in the market, so he started
out on the scent and was not long reaching
the place named. He asked for can of
salmon and astonished the grocer by open
ing it on the spot. 1t was putrid through
and through, and the stencil that rose from
II was something shocking.
Kaufman insisted that the salmon was all
right. he had been using some of the same
lot for his own family and found nothing
wrong about it. To make sure the Inspector
sampled another can and another, and each
time the stencil increased. Surely there
could be no doubt, SO lie took the whole
stock, 1912 cans, and carried them to the

and Roger MCCLELLAN qualifying as sureties.
Judge Worley stated that he accepted bail,

A Twenty-MiIe Road Race.

One of the foremost bicycling organizations
In Washington is the Columbia Cycle Club
Although younger than many the Columbia
Club has already done great deal to promote
the cause of road riding in the District. At
the last regular meeting of the club it was de-
cided to give twenty-mile open handicap race
on the Goth of May. The details are in the hands
of committee, consisting of Messrs. II. j.
Southwick, Casey, Newman, and F. p. Stock
bridge, from whom entry blanks can be pro-
cured. The entry fee will be one dollar and
any resident rider may enter. The course has
not yet been finally selected, but will probably
be on the Aqueduct road, from the first reser-
voir to the Fishing Clubhouse and return. A
number of valuable prizes will be offered,
which will be exhibited in prominent show
window. On June the club will give an ex-
cursion to Marshall Hall, the opening of the
season at that popular resort. The steamer
Manchester has been chartered and a first-cass
orchestra engaged. Tickets will be on sale by
club members in few days.

ROWING AND ATHLETICS.

G. A. Q. Preparing for tho Regatta.
The Columbia athletes have begun to look
around for men to take places in the various
crews that will be needed for the many events
in the National regatta. The prospects are
bright that Captain Stinemetz will have plenty
of talent at his command. The men are very
eager for the places in the crafts and If the club
secures Courtney to train them, as it is almost
sure they will, he will find on his arrival here
one of the finest fields to pluck from he has
ever had charge of. The coming of the great
regatta has enthused the boys more than any
thing else that has ever occurred here, more
even than the big athletic meeting last fall from
the fact that more chances are allowed the
men to secure prizes For the senior crews the
field is a large and interesting one larger, per-
haps, than any club ever had, and hence there
Will be some trouble in selecting the ones nee
essary for the crews They have Janus, Ba-
ker, Ryan, Johnston, Elder, Miller, Mute,
Kern, O'Leary, Wade Harlan, Simmons, and
Mckinney, of the old crews, and Dyer and
Elmore of the great Potomac crews of two
years ago-a field of great aquatic ability. In
the junior ranks the field is so large that it
would require column to name them, so it
can easily be seen that the Columba's chances
are fine for that class. They have splendid
boating material, and besides will add TO their
fleet new eight-oared shell this month or the
first of May. Janitor Bremmer has put things
in good shape at the house, has repaired the
floats and inclines, and he is now ready to re-
ceive the oarsmen and help them send their
boats off on trip. Rowing will commence
this week
