That Is the Advice Said to &c Given in
tie Latest Circular to tile Farmers.
CHICAGO, Oct. 3.-The morning News
says that rough draft of an article adj
vising the farmers of the country to
hold their corn for higher prices has
been made, and that it is expected to
appear in full in the next issue Of The
Farmers Voice. 1t advises the sale of
only SO muck of the crop as is actually
necessary for home consumption, until
the foreign demand puts prices up, then
to sell only so much as is necessary to
supply the demand and again loek up
the cribs till prices go up again. 1t con-
tinues: ~
Brokers are aware that the foreign
demand will be 80 per cent greater than
last year, when 81, 377, 955 bushels were
taken abroad from all American ports,
which will make, at moderate esti-
mate, 10S, 1871 ,941 bushels for this year.
Owing to the shortness of the wheat
crop abroad these figures are probably
on the safe side many millions.
r 1.-THE months of the heaviest export
during the year 1892 will be in Feb
ruary, March, April, May and June.
The present European crop will supply
the needs of the foreigners until after
January, when the demand viii be
made upon America. If the farmer fol-
lows his usual habit of hurrying his corn
to market during November and Decem-
Der he will miss this foreign demand,
and brokers who buy and store this
grain will make the money"

HIS HEART TRANSPOSED.

A Man Whose Like Cannot Be Found In

About II o'clock there drifted up the
steep stairs to the Highway Chapel, on
East Front street, says the Cincinnati En-
quirer, man without a parallel in the
country. George Burns, Pittsburg," on
the register disclosed the name and place
OF residence, but no attention is usually paid
to these details by Rev. CoffmeD, as the
names and residences given are usually fcti-
tOus. The man WAS probably 80 years of age
and must have been at one time physical
giant. Nothing peculiar was noticed until
he removed his hat, when a terrible three
cOrnered scar was noticed on the top of the
head. This prompted question on the part
OF bysLander, and, in answer, the old gen.
teman produced well-worn wallet and
began to unfold papers to Substantiate his
story as he related it.
The scar on the top of his head was in
fiicted by piece of a bombshelI during the
bombardment of Fort Donnelson, where he
was an engineer on the ship Essex of Com
mOdOre Foote'S squadron. The skull has
been patched up with silver plate which
weighs six ounces. During the year follow

vessel went on the rocks at GAYS Head, on
the Atlantic Coast. There Burns was ter
ribly injured, but stuck to his engine to the
last moment, and was In the act of reversing
the engine when the crash came.
The vessel was broken up and Burns
caught in the wreck of the machinery and
crushed almo out of human sem blance.
His right hip, LETT shoulder blade, right leg
and several ribs were crushed to splnters,
and the crushed ribs and leg bone were
afterward removed by the surgeon to save
his life. The right knee-cap, sh0ulder-blade
and hip bone were also removed, and the
only mystery is how lie stumps around as
well as he does.
The most remarkable thing about the
mans injuries is that while In the hospital
undergoing treatment it was discovered bv
DIR. Agnew, the famous surgeon, that Burns
heart had been forced from its normal po-
sition On the left side Of the breast over to
the right side. Those who examined the
man last night could detect no trace of
heart action on the left side, while on the
right side the beating Of the heart could be
plainly felt.

Senator Sprague lived at Narragansett

of grass land.

YELPING JIM.
A Witness Who Bothered Judge, Jury
and Counsel.

A Witness Who Bothered Judge, Jury
and Counsel.
The attorneys, the court and the jurors in
Court Of Common Pleas at Wooster Ohio,
have had before them in criminal
proceeding for two days witness
whose story on the stand was alike an inflic-
ton to himself and all who heard
him. The man is known as "Yelping JIM"
or James Miller, of Franklin Township.
Miller. who is now man of about 80 years,
has since childhood been afflicted with
peculiar nervous affection, although stout,
heavy man. AT intervals from one minute
to three minutes his head will give jerk, and
the mouth fly open with lond whOop that
under ordinary circumstances can be heard
several blocks away. During his story on
the witnesses stand his nervous temperament
was necessarily strained, with the result
that the "yells" or 'whoops" come with
greater frequency, and SO loud that they
could be heard through the entire building.
Miller has spent great deal of money in
trying to be cured or delivered of his singu-
lar trouble, but without avail. He has never
been outside of the county but few times
for the reason that his yelling was cOntinu-
ally getting him into trouble. Every police
man whom he would meet would imagine
that he was hi!ari0uSly full and arrest him
for dlsorderly conduct He was never
locked up or fined, as he always happened
to have some person with him who would
explain to the authorities his trouble. He
suffers no Inconvenience from the trouble,
he says, only when excited; then the jerk
ing OF the head causes him pain.-Cincin-

den one day and startled DR.. Egan by say
ing he had had his neck broken some time
before and felt little pain in the back of
II yet. DR.. Egan admitted him to the hos
pital and found the mans case to be one of
the most remarkable in the annals of sur
gerry.
DR.. H. A. Wilson, the lecturer on orthope-
dies, aftsrward examined the man and
lectured on his case before a clinic. At this
time Patterson was wearing a sort of stiff
bandage round his neck, and owing TO it be-
ing an insufficient support he jerked his
neck out Of place three times while In the
hospital. On each occasion he fell down
paraiyzed, and but for the prompt attention
of DR.. Egan In replacing MS neck in posi-
ton be would have died.
DR.. II. a. Wilson, in order to obvate the
recurrence OF these accidents. devised par
tcular and special apparatus to hold the
mans head place and also a pair of tongs,
which fold up suali enough to go into his
pocket. but extend out far enough to permit
Of him picking up things from the floor
without bending his neck.
DR.. Huston. one of the resident surge ons
at the Jefferson Hospital, in speaking of
the wonderful operation which had been
performed on the mans spinal column, said
it really looks as if, with the advance of
surgery. to be sure OF killing a man it will
be necessary to take him about 200 miles
from physician and thea run him through
