Hungry, pnd His Neck Broken.

From the St. Louis Globe Democrat.
For two days Henry Bruggan has re-
manned alive at the City hospitaa with a
broken neck a dislocated shoulder, and a
bad bruise on the head. Despite the many
ailments of the patient, DR.. Marks has
hope of patching Mr.. Bruggan UP as
good as new. Sand bags about his pillow
prevent his head from rolling about.
while straps, attached to weight, pass
under the chin to prevent the head from
dropping on the breast. AS badly used
up as is Mr.. Bruggan, the only thought
that seemed to concern him overmuch
when Dr. Marks made the rounds of the
wards yesterday was something to eat.
How do You feel?" asked Dr. Marks.
"AH right; but ! don't get enough to
eat"
1T isn't best for you now
1T amt, Ell? Well ] want some, any
way, doctor; I'm hungry"
All this coming from a man with three
cords of his spinal vertebrae snapped in
twain sounded rather odd. AS he opened
his mouth to speak, the weight attached
to the straps about his chin moved up and
down along the slide prepared for it at
the head of the bed Bruggan, according
to Dr. Marks, is the worst broken up man
in the city hospital. He Is Utterly shat
tered to pieces. When brought to the
hospital both legs were paralyzed, but yes
terday he was gradually gaining control
over them. Bruggan was injured in an
elevator fall at Bollman's piano store
where he was employed.

carry off the skull and cross-bones and
other insignia when the girls turned on
them. tearing their hats from their heads,
pounding them vigorously and uprooting
large quantities of their hair The boys
fled in dismay and this morning presented
a sorry appearance when they arrived at

members of the board of education. The
