A Remarkable Case Of Bone Ex-
poliation, Unparalleled in
Medical Circles.

AsHEvILLE, N. c., Especial. DIR. T.
T.. Bales, of Caney Branch, Tenn, has
been in this city attending the State
Medical convention. Dr. Bales tells of a
wonderful and almost unparalleled case
IN medical circles. The subject lives at
Caney Branch, and her name is Mrs.
Sarah Meas. Speaking of the case TO
representative of The Commercial, Dr.
Hales said:
81 have been Mrs. Neas's physician for
Two years. She is seventy-one years Of
age, and weighs 100 pounds, and ex-
cept the disease spoken of is in good
health. About twenty-one years ago
while ironing Mrs Meas scorched the in
dex finger of her left hand, and on the
same evening cut the same finger on
broken dish. The night following the
wound gave great pain, and the iiuger
was badly swollen and the cuticle ex-
tended from the end of the finger. Thi.
she cut off with scissors. She suffered
1nccssant pain for two months, at the end
OF which time the bone exploitation began.
1t first commenced in the phlanges of the
fingers and as the disease progressed the
forearm became involved. The huInenis
has not yet been affected. ExpoliatioE

before it takes place the patient is seized
with intense pain, which continues until
the bone is expelled. No pus has ever
formed, and what seems to be most
remarkable in the case is tho fact that the
bone seems to be immediately replaced
by some process of ossifcation. The
bone does not always make its appearance
on the surface instantly after breaking
loose, but occasionally is one that will
be some hours moving down the arm.
They move IN inch or 80 rapidly, and
then remain stationary some time, ther
move further until they reach tie back of
the hand and then appear op the surface
On one occasion I was called very hmri-
edly to see her. On arrival I found a
bone lodged in her throat. removed
the bone and she informed me that she
had swallowed two bones previous to my
arrival. While talking to heI bone one
inch in length was expelled from her car.
The bones expelled to to date NUM-
ber $780,"

Desire of Colored Men to Becor Q
White.

New YORK CITY, Especial I-Bishor
Turner, colored prelate of the African
Methodist Episcopal denomination, made
some curious statements about colored
people in his sermon of last Sunday in
Brooklyn. He spoke of desire of col
ored men TO become white, and expressed
his disapproval of such desire on their
pat he told of a coored lady who
assured aim that she would gladly he
skinned if skinning would leave her
white, and he alleged that she fell in his
esteem after making this remark He
said that great many colored people be.
lieved that they would turn white on GO
ing to heaven, but he informed them that
they would not thus lose their identity in
the resurrection.
The New York Sun commenting on The
ser!non says: We a;e disposed to say th.,
we are inclined to express our approval
! OF Bishop Tuners remarks on this inter
esting subject. The colored men who
desire to become white are unworthy Of
their complexion; the colored lady who
is ready to be skinned for the sake of be-
coming white deserved 10 fall in his es-
teen, and as for the colored people who
