BORN WITHOUT A HAND.

An Infant Ushered Into the World
Minus the Right Digits.
There was born at the City and County
Hospital yesterday morning a child without
a hand on its right arm.
A woman named Mary Collins, the wife
OF poor iaboring man. went to the hospital
about three weeks ago in a very delicate
condition, and has been under treatment
ever since.
About o'clock yesterday morning DR..
Mays was called to attend the woman, and
she gave birth to large healthy boy.
When the baby was examined it was dis
covered that there was no hand on the right
arm. the bones of the wrist were also
wanting What made the case stranger still
was three little tabs of flesh attached to the
forearm.
In all other respects the infant was ia
splendid condition. Its head Is fiue, its
body perfect in DEVELOPMENT, ana its face
handsome in its lines The doctor who at
tended the case thought tia pity that such
fine looking infant should be the victim of
such a malformaton.
Born without right hand is a sad misfor-
tune for the young one. bnt the mother took
the matter bravely. She said that her boy
might not ever be able 10 be Jim Corbett
or John L.. bat that be could easily be
taught to use his left hand, and make it a
good substitute for the missing right digits
She believes there are plenty OF occupations

The Nomination of Six Candidates for
School Directors,
The Non Partisan convention resumed its
session az 16 Post street last evening, Thomas
Magee in the chair.
Lowell White. chairman of the committee
on platform, introduced. by request. 9 sub
siitute for the flank in relation TO the
pledge required to be taken by candidates.
Its object was To modify the original plank
so as to leave nominees free to accept nomi-
nations from other parties.
Much opposition was manifested to the
proposed amendment.
Mr.. Sullivan objected on the ground that
the candidates already nominated had
pledged themselves to support the platform.
and it would lie improper to make any
changes.
Chairman Magee thought the platform
was in good shape without further amend
ment.
DIR, Hirst said il would weaken the POSI-
tion Of the party before the public TO make
any change. and that the retroactive influ-
ence of the proposed plank would be very
undesirable.
After several other gentlemen had ex-
pressed views OF like tenor the chairman
ruled the amendment out of order.
Mark Sheldon, chairman of the committee
on legislative nominations, asked that the
committee be allowed until Monday night
to report.
After several speeches had been made in
opposition to further delay, motion to
proceed with the rollcall on the nomination
OF legislative candidates was ordered laid
on the table.
The convention proceeded TO the nomin-
alton Of six Republican school directors
While the names OF the candidates were
being presented Mr.. Sullivan charged that
all the patronage OF the present Board of
Education was under the control OF two
men-Kelly and Crimmins
Max Gold berg, In very vigorous speech,
dared any man TO show that any acts per-
formed by the board were done at the direc-
ti0n OF the bosses.
Chairman Magee said that School Super
intendent SWEET had told him that six Of
the members OF the Board OF Education
whose names bad been submitted to the
convention for nomination had worried In
dustriously, faithfully, honestly and econ
omically for the public schools and he (the
chairman would vote for these gentlemen
on the recommendation OF Mr.. SWEET.
