aged thirty-nine, of 1875 First avenue,

the New York Recorder. Almost his
entire left ear was bitten off by fellow
workman during fight. Only stump
remained.
Slavick refused to make complaint Z
the police, but went to Gouuerneur hos
pltal for medical attendance The day
was cold and the raw atmosphere con-
gealed the blood around the wound be-
fore the hospital was reached.
"Where is the ear?' asked DR.. Dono

tory replied Slavick.
doctor. maybe 1 can put it on again"
Slavick left as soon as the bandages
were on, to get his ear. In ten minutes
he came back with it. The wound was
washed with a warm solution. Then
the ear was thoroughly thawed out.
After this it was put into another
ISOLATION and heated to pitch of ninety
eight degrees. The stump and ear were
trimmed to tit. The ear was then COW
cred with oiled silk in order to prevent
loss OF temperature. With twelve
stitches of silk the ear was sutured TO
the stump. Warm dressings were ap-
piled at intervals during the operation
and Immediately after it.
Dr. DonOhue then put his patient to
bed i'll warm room and gave him con-
slant attention. In order to keen the
dressings warm it was necessary to keep
number of OilSkin sacks constantly on
hand filled with water heated to 90 de.
greeS. This was to induce circulation.
These applications must be kept up
without intermission until the union
is complete. The bandages were changed
daily. A slight jerk during this opera
ton would dislocate the little tissues
which are believed to be uniting. The
greatest of care was required in chang
ing bandages, as nothing could be done
to brace the flabby protrusion. There
was the additional danger that the pa
tent would roll over in his sleep and
disturb the wounded parts. A hard
knot was tied in the middle of a sheet
which was bound around the pa
tents body. The knot was placed
to tit in the small of his back, so
that the moment he would roll over
from his left side he would lie with all
his weight on the knot. This would
make itself felt so forcibly as to induce
a speedy return to the original position,

but DR.. Donohue did not deem it
safe to examine the wound. The same
day the patient took a notion to go
home. He is a strong, brawny labor
ing man, and his cramped position
became too tiresome for him. His appe-
tite was good and he felt firstrate.
In spite OF all remonstrances he got
up from his cot and left for home, prom
ising to continue the hot applications.
He returned for treatment on Sunday,

well. DR.. Donohue is much interested

POKER IN A DUGOUT.

An Interesting Game of Draw
With Simple Dakota Hayseed.
Kansas City Times.
1t was about ten years ago that | took
a trip through the West with party of
Kansas City men. Several weeks were
spent in Dakota in the summer of 1881.
One day the four members of our party
were driving along a trail a few miles
from Yankton when we espied "dug
OUT off to the north of the trail. We
decided to alight and have a chat with
the settler, who was seated on the roof
OF his humble abode, with his feet on
the ground. To the uninitiated this
would seem strange, but these houses
are four-ffths under ground and cons
tain about s. worth of lumber, two room
and a thousand centipedes.
Upon the Invitation of Mr.. Jones, the
settler, we entered his abode, where he
introduced us to his wife. Brown, one
OF our party, suggested right in the
midst of our conversation OH the crops
that we play game Of seven-up. The
scheme met with approval and we
played several games. Jones didn't
seem to know much about the game.
After while another of our party-I'll
call him Johnson-leaned over to me
and said: jim, do you reckon this
hayseed could have dollar or two
about him" 1t wasn't long before
Johnson asked Mr.. Jones if he ever
played poker. Jones said: "Wal.
gentlemen, l do play now an then, and
wouldn't mind dealin' a few hands
o. poker" They began playing
penny ante" and the old man won
about dollar at it. l didn't play, but
Johnson, who is now United States
senator. put up good game generally,
and did not like to be beaten even for a
dollar. He proposed making jackpot.
1t was made. No one could open it
without pair OF jacks or better. Three
open it. johnson finally said, asst
was progressive he had to have at
least pair Of kings. He bet 81 and
Jones raised him 81, but the others
dropped out of the game. S'manthy,
the settlers wife, saw Sc on the table
and said, Jones, l do wish you would
quit a-foolin' with them keards." Jones
said, Never mind, old woman; two
pair is purity good" So the betting
went on until Jones had about SIS
on the table. ''Wait a minute" he
said, still get some more stuff" and
with that he showed his five cards down
in his pocket, went to corner of the
dugout. raised plank Of the floor and
extracted tin can, from which he took
roll of bills as big as my arm. Seat
ing himself, he laid a twenty on the
board, and as Johnson met it and raised
him, he did likewise for Johnson, until
finally the latter put up his last dollar
of $500 on the board and ''called" Jones,
who promptly showed four aces to John
sons three kings and pair of fives, and
picked up the $400. We all Clipped in

Runaway Horses.
B oston Post


l heard an interesting distinction
made the other day by an experienced
driver of horSes-not PROFESSIONALS
to the degree of danger to which a per-
son was exposed from runaway horse.
The distinction made was between the
horse that runs away from fright and
the horse that runs away because he is
out of temper. In the former
case the horse is said to be per-
fectly reckless; he is as likely to
dash across the street as he is to go
straight ahead-and the only safeguard
for team approaching him is to get as
far away from him as possible. But the
horse who is the victim of an pngoyern-
able temper has method in his mad
ness. He rushes straight ahead and is
careful TO avoid obstacles in his path.
Such an animal is much less to be
dreaded than the victim Of fright, and
there is no necessity for taking unusual
precautions against a collision with
him.

who does not play poker when he gets
