DIR. J. B. MURPHY.

perlative honor, and Chicago is justi1ably
proud that it should have been conferred
upon one of her citizens.
DR.. Murphy is recognized as one of the
foremost surgeons in the United States,
and nowadays that means one Of the fore
most in the world. Hewas the first to per-
form the operation Of removing the ver1ni-
form appendix, which surgeons claim will
result in saving the lives of so per cent or
more of persons afflicted with appendicitis,
cred almost necessarily fatal.
The intestinal anastomosis button, by
which the mortality in intestinal opera
tions has been reduced to about 2 per cent,
was invented by DR.. Murphy. This button
has been severed. No stitching is needed,
and it can be adjusted within q 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 q lecture before
some eminent surgeons he made the claim
that m 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 a hospital, where
an operation Of tho kind referred to was to
be performed. To their great surprise, he
completed the work in a trife 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 the bone through de-
fective teeth, and that it is always fatal.
The disease is called a~ctinomycosis 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 a native Of
Wisconsin and only about SO years Of age.

and delicate as the lawn, organdies and
cotton challies. The wooden challies are so
closely and SO cleverly initiated that it is
almost impossible to tell them apart. The
challies have small patterns and large to
suit the taste Of everybody, and there has
been a new design brought out recently in
which the cheney silk designs are faithful
ly copied. The distinguishing mark of
these patterns is the vague n shadowy
outline of the flowers represented. They
seem to melt into the fabric. The effect is
obtained by printing the figure upon the
threads before the fabric is woven. That
way the outline is not clear, as the threads
become slightly displaced in the weaving.
1t produces a pattern most exquisite, and
I believe it was never before attempted on
anything but very rich silk.
I took note of a very pretty new design
of a dress which I think embodies the germ
Of a great vogue, already foreshadowed
last winter. l refer to a pannier gown.
This one was of sheer printed organdie,
with loose garlands of golden brown and
russell green. The skirt was gored, but
gathered full, and had two rows Of three
inch mordore faille ribbon laid flat around
the bottom. The waist was polka shape,
with points both back and front, and trim
med with ribbon. There was a flat band
Of wide ribbon outlining the bertha, on
which were two rows of narrower ribbon
and q frill of lace. On the sides were gath
cred pufs Of the organdie, forming pan
niers, draped up to a point front and back
and ending under a bow and ends Of ribbon.
This made a very dressy gown.
There was another very handsome dress
intended for a garden party. The gown
was of blue SO pale as to be almost white
and was Of bunting sheer and fine. The
skirt wa made with a Spanish founce
across the front and had gathered breadths
reaching to the top in the back. All around
the bottom of the skirt there was a band
Of point de gene lace laid flat over dark
blue silk. The waist was plain and round,
open v shaped front and back over an In
set of blue MORE and edged with lace. The
sleeves were of moire, and there was a sash
Of MORE ribbon Of the same shade.
I noticed upon two gowns Of light tissue
q novelty in the way Of trimming. There
were fat bands of brussels point lace
sewed on very closely, the stitches following
the heavy pattern, and then the inside
mesh was all clipped away with fine scis'
sors. This is also a good way to use old
lace, as the mesh is the part that wears
ouo ufsG, anu d red1 1dce always Aoohs f1cL
and handsome as long as a thread of it re-
mains, and the thickly woven pattern car
be transferred to velvet, silk or other goods
with good effect. The way to transfer the
lace is this: 1t should first be basted upo1
thin but tough paper, and then paper
and all basted over the material it is to bt
transferred to, and the heavy pattern seweG
through the paper to the goods. after which
the intervening mesh should be clipped Out
and the paper pulled out afterward. Thii
is how experts do the work.

Sleuth" stories, and the financial results
have more than justified his anticipations.
His stories have netted him something
over $500, 900 and produce for him an in
come Of $40, 900 q year.
The amount of work Mr.. Halsey has ac-
complished in the past 20 years is some
thing prodigious. His stories average be-
tween SO, 900 and rs, 900 words each and
have required the preparation of more than
40, 900 closely written manuscript pages.
He says that his work is largely mechan-
ical, and that he goes about it daily as q
carpenter goes to his bench, writing from
30 to 40 pages of manuscript on 800 out of
the 813 working days Of each year. He
takes pride in the fact that there is not a
single word in any story he has written
that could be objected to by the most rigid
moralist.
Mr.. Halsey looks more like a prosperous
merchant than a typical author. He is a
strongly built man Of medium stature,
with a strong, good face, conventional
dress and businesslike manner. He is q
business man of considerable ability, too,
and has increased his fortune to very near
the 10 figure limit by shrewd investments
in real estate and financial projects. He is
a director is a Brooklyn trust company and
takes a great deal of interest in Republic
LII politics in the City of Churches.
The Halseys are a old Long Island
family, and ''Old Sleuth" is very proud of
his ancestry. His four great-grandfathers
fought in the Revolution, and. six of his
ancestors were military officers in the old
colonial wars. The walls of his handsome
Brooklyn home are hung with many por-
traits Of these vigorous and comely people,
and much of his furniture is priceless from
old associations.

PROPOSED NEW FREMONT HOUSE, BOSTON.
architecture of it's 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 a handsome structure. Nobody
ever calls it SO now, but the Bostonian
who loves the antiquities of his town will
dwell with fond insistence on it's 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 q very valuable piece of
property, and the present owners think it
should be put to more profitable uses. So
the ancient hosiery will be torn down,
and in it's stead will be erected a 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 a broad promenade surrounding a SUI
perstructure three stories in height of
smaller area than the floors below. This
s~uperstruoture is to be laid out in suits OF
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 a handsome roof garden, paved
with concrete and lighted by electricity,
! with convenient hooks and recesses fol
shade and protection from the rain. A
magnificent view of the city and it's sub.
urbs will be obtainable from this point q
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 50, 500, 900.

the horse will measure about 8 feet in

the pedestal will be 10 feet. It will be of

Mr.. Ellicott's genius has heretofore been
manifested in his equestrian statue Of Gen
eral Nj Clellan in Philadelphia, and the SOL
diers' monuments in Greenwood and Cal

pronounced ''the gems Of that battlefield. y

THE CENTURY MARK.
A NUMBER OF AMERICAN COLLEGES
HAVE PASSED IT.
Now Bowdoin Is Preparing to Celebrate
Its Observation-Disclosures of That Veneer
able Institution-Its Present President.
Many Famous Graduates.

If ancient and historic surroundings are
aids to scholarship, our American educa-
tors may felicitate themselves that many
Of u eastern institutions Of learning are
acquiring the mellowness Of age. More
than a score of American colleges have al
ready passed the century mark. Only a
few months ago Williams college celebrated
Its centennial, and now Bowdoin is pre-
pairing to observe with proper ceremonies
its one hundredth anniversary. Bowdoin
was the first college in Maine. The prof.
ect Of establishing a college there had
been under discussion prior to the Revolu-
ton, but 1t was not until the year 1888
chat actual steps were taken toward it's
foundation. Maine was then and remained
until 1890 a part Of the commonwealth Of
Massachusetts,, and it was to the legisla-
ture Of that state that the association Of
ministers and the court of sessions for
Cumberland county applied in 1888 for q
college charter and a grant of lands.
The charter was granted June "a, 1894,
together with five townships, as a founda-
ton for the college, but it was not until
eight years later that the first building was
erected and the first class admitted. The
institution was named in memory Of Gov

of selecting q design. This commission
consisted of the secretary of wal and Sena-

the waves, come the days when half the
world starts for Europe. For such q trip
there is a very jaunty travelling blazer
suit, tailor finished, but more dressy than
that style Of gowns usually are. This par
ticular suit was made of granite cheviot,
with a dull green the predominating col
or, mingled with white and several tints.
The skirt fitted the figure closely in front
and was laid in godet plaits in the back.
The coat was tight fitting and cut away in
front, the bottom being rounded off at the
front and bound with braid just like q
mans coat. There was a flat coat collar,
with very large lapels, and the sleeves
were large crushed gigots, with narrow
cuffs Of the goods bound with braid. The
vest was made of white pique, with q dou-
BILE row Of white linen buttons. This vest
opened at the neck to show a chemisette
and collar of bingham, with stripes carry
ing the p~redominating colors Of the gown.
There was a narrow black tic. The hat
was rough and ready straw, green and
gray, with bows of reseda velvet. The
other garment intended for travelling was
Of snuff brown tweed, made to fit the fig
ure closely in the back, but without darts
in the front. There were 10 brown horn
buttons set in two rows, and three good,
roomy pockets. The sleeves were gigot,
without trimming, and there was q coat
collar, with sharp lapels, covering a wide
circular collar in brown MORE. With this
should be worn an alpine hat in stitched
brown felt and with o seal brown velvet
band, ending with a fat bow on the left
side. There was a Glengarry cape, with q
hood lined with moire to be worn over this
in case the weather should make it neces-
sary, and the cape was ined through
with moire and made Of the tweed. This
costume was designed for q bride, but it is
quite as useful for my lady who intends
to travel.
In tho place where these were made I
saw several travelling dresses made Of pin
head check silks. One was dark brown
and cream, one navy blue and gray, one
black and white and one black and blue.
These were made with plain skirts, trim
med sparingly with lines of velvet ribbon,
so as to free from dust easily. In fact,
silk and mohair are the only fabrics suita-
BILE for dusty travelling, though light woods
are much worn. To wear with the blue
and black dress there was an ulster made
Of black taffeta. 1t was really lovely,
though made as plain as possible and lined
only in the waist. There was a frilled
cape of the same to throw over the Shout
ders if necessary. The lady who wears
such a wrap will bless her stars, for it
weighs scarcely anything, and II yigor-
GUS shake in the evening will free it from
all the dust of a days accumulation.
1t is all summer n summary in the
stores now, and we are nearly bewildered
with the sight of the dainty gowns intend
ed for exclusively warm weather dresses.
The crepons, lace grenadines, buntings
and deliciously Opaque veilings and tamis
cloth are all seen with much lace and rib
bon trimming, and these with the gowns
made entirely Of lace and the thin silks
are the most expensive, but I do not think
them any prettier than if really as dainty
