An Indians Last Hunt.

Postmaster Peacock tells us that son
Of Indian Billy Jewell, better known as
Billy Key West, young man twenty
one years old, met his death in singu-
lar manner while hunting last week in
the Indian hunting grounds in Dade
county. Billy, who was good hunter,
went out and shot large buck. Think
ing him dead, he stopped down on COM
ing up to him to cut his throat. The
buck in his last agonies made for him
and drove his horns into the abdomen of
the Indian, ripping it open. After three
days, Billy not returning, party was
made up, and, attracted by the buzz
yards, both hunter and hunted were
found dead together-the Indian still
impaled on the horns Of the buck. key

Ok. j. Is. MURPHY. Scnted. 1t Is Su-
perlative ho{or, and Chicago is justiflably
proud that ia should have been conferred
upon one of aher citizens.
DR.. Murphy is recognized as one of the
foremost sui tyeons in the United States,
and NOWADAYS that means one of the fore
most in the Sorld. Hc was the first to per-
form the operation of removing the vermi-
form appendix, which surgeons claim will
result in saving the lives of go per cent or
more of persons afflicted with appendicitis,
whereas the disease was formerly consid-
cred almost necessarily fatal.
The intestinal anastomosis button, by
which the mortality in intestinal opera
tions has been reduced to about per cent,
was invented by DR.. Murphy. This button
is used to join the ends Of an intestine that
has been severed. No stitching is needed,
and it can be adjusted within a minute.
The button, once in place, presses the in
testinal ends together until permanent
union has been formed. 1t then detaches
Itself and passes naturally away.
DR.. Murphy is exceptionally skillful as
an operative surgeon. In lecture before
some eminent surgeons he made the claim
that an operation with the use of the anas-
tomosis button could be performed in seven
minutes. Several of his auditors were
doubtful of the accuracy of the statement
and took DR.. Murphy to hospital, where
an operation of the kind referred to was to
be performed. To their great surprise, he
completed the work in trifle more than
five minutes.
Another discovery for which the medical
world is DR.. Murphy's debtor is that hui
man beings may become infected with the
cattle disease known as "lumpy jaw"
The doctor found that the disease germs
were transmitted to tho bone through de-
fectivo teeth, and that it is always fatal.
The disease is called actinomycosis homi-
mis-.
DR.. Murphy is professor of surgery in
the Chicago College of Physicians and
Surgeons and was for six years lecturer on
surgery at Rush Medical college, his alma
mater He is president of the Cook Coun-
tyhospital staff and has spent several years
In the hospitals of Berlin, Heidelberg,
Munich and Vienna. He is native of
Wisconsin and only about SO years of age.

why the People Smiled.

There is an honest and jolly butcher
who does business in Eighth avenue not
far from the Central park entrance. He
is large and heavy man, his wife is al.
most as heavy. and his grown daughter
weighs nearly 200 pounds. 1t is custom
ary for this weighty family to take a
ride in the butchers delivery wagon
every Sunday afternoon. and the trio,
dressed in Sunday finery, present very
imposing appearance. The women are
particularly fond Of bright colors. Ono
or two Sundays ago this party arrived
on Riverside drive and attracted much
attention. The complacent butcher and
bis female companions seemed to more
than fill the stout wagon. and doubtless
they were wholly unconscious of the
reason for the merriment caused by
their appearance. On each side Of the
wagon was painted in bold, black let
ers, Dressed Beef."-New York Times.

of The real Jingleberry. The jealousy
soon gave way to CONSERVATION. for. TO

similar ordeal.
Altogether, however, it was not as
pleasing as most novelties are, for there
were distinct signs in the face of the mir

berry's words were distasteful to her
and that the proposition he was making
was not one she could entertain under
any circumstance. She kept shaking
her head. and the more she shook it the
more the glazed Jingleberry seemed to
implore her to be his. Finally Jingle
berry saw his quicksilver counterpart
fall upon his knees before Marian of the
glass and hold out his arms and hands
toward her in an attitude of prayerful
despair, whereupon the girl sprang to
her feet, stamped her left foot furiorrS

Jingleberry was fairly staggered
What could be the meaning of so extraor.

must be prophetic. Fate was kind
enough to warn him in advance, no
doubt: otherwise it was trick. And
why should she stoop to play SO paltry a
trick as that upon him? Surely fate
would not be SO petty. No. it was a
warning. The mirror had been so af-
fected by some supernatural agency that
it OWNED and reflected that which was
to be, instead of contenting itself to what
Jingleberry called "simultaneity." 1t

PROPOSED NEW FREMONT HOUSE, BOSTON.
architecture of its time-solid, grim and
almost forbidding, built of dark gray
granite, with a porch Of massive pillars
that was once thought to be very impos-
ing. 1t is a marvel that any one ever con-
sidered it n handsome structure. Nobody
ever calls it so now, but the Bostonian
who loves the antiquities of his town will
dwell with fond insistence on its historic
associations, political and otherwise
The site of the old hotel, on the block at
the corner of fremont and Beacon streets,
adjoining the Old Granary burying
ground, is now very valuable piece Of
property, and the present owners think it
should be put to more profitable uses. So
the ancient hostelry will be torn down,
and in its stead will be erected big II
story structure of stone, brick and steel
that will challenge comparison with all
the famous modern hotels of New York
and Chicago.
The three lower stories of the new build
ing will be of conglomerate sandstone, the
fremont street facade being broken by an
arched entrance with a keystone 80 feet
above the ground. From the top of the
third story the building will be Of buff
pressed brick, with stone and terra Gotta
trimmings. Above the eighth story is to
be broad promenade surrounding su-
perstructure three stories in height Of
smaller area than the floors below. This
superstructure is to be laid out in suits or
flats, designed for luxurious homes, that
will have no connection with the hotel
proper except through private entrances.
The top of this superstructure will be
175 feet above the street line and will be
devoted to handsome roof garden, paved
with concrete and lighted by electricity,
with convenient hooks and recesses for
shade and protection from the rain. A
magnificent view of the city and its sub
urbs will be obtainable from this point Of
vantage which will give a clear sweep
from the Newtons on the west around in
both directions to the entrance of the har-
Dor on the east The estimated cost of the
structure will be SO, 500, 0O0

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

By local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by oonstitu-

famed condition of the mucous lining of the
eustachian tube. When this tube gets inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when 1t is entirely closed deafness is
the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube res ored to Its normal
nine cases out of ten are caused by cstarrh,

SUNDAY ORDINANCE VETOED.
Chicago's Mayor Says Open Stores
Don't Disturb Good Order.
Advises Overworked Employees to
Look Elsewhere for Relief.
nv Associated Prcss.)


CHICAGO. June 19.-Mayor Hopkins
last night vetoed the ordinance closing
certain stores OH Sunday. His Honor
holds that "the ordinance was not
passed in obedience to n demand OF
the people for the preservation of the
peace and good order Of society on Sun
day by closing certain stores. but in
consequence OF the desire of certain
employees of retail stores and barber
, shops to procure by municipal enact
ment much h-needed day of rest.
"The desire Is well justified, and
every legitimate means should be en-
ployed to accomplish its fulfllment.
but I cannot sanction q measure which
under the guise Of a police regulation
to the preservation of the peace and
good order Of society on the Sabbath
so radically interfercs with the private
affairs of the citizens.
II cannot take the view that in a large
city the keeping oDen of shoe store
or u barber shop disturbs the good order
of society. however desirable the closing
the overworked employee or in the in
terest of a religious observance of Sum
day.
1.-THE proper and legitimate remedy for
the overworked employees of the stores
mentioned in the ordinance Is either
State legislation, or, far better, the
peaceable, but determined, assertion OF
already accomplished such wonderful
results in the matter of the reduction Of
the hours of toll and the amelioration
of the condition of the working classes"
