WITH A SHEEP SHIN
INTERESTING BONE-CRAFTINC
OPERATION IN PHILADELPHIA.
Surgeons Substitute n Portion of the
Animals Leg for a Decayed Bone
In the Leg of o hoy.

Philadelphia. July lo.-An extraordl-
nary bone-graftlng operation was per-
formed at the Hahnemann hospital.
Surgeons substituted a portion OF a
sleeps leg for a decayed bone In the
leg of Boyd Folwell. Is years old. Ply
sicians say that their patient is doing
well, although II Is too early TO deter
mine whether the operation will prove
a success.
The boy was placed under ether and
the decayed part OF the bone OF the
right leg for seven inches above the
ankle joint was cut away. The sheep
in the meantime. had been chloro-
formed. and the surgeons cut away a
portion OF its foreleg to the exact
measurement OF the part requlred~for
the boys ankle. The moment the live
bone was taken from the sheep II was
fitted In the gar. and the joints con.

nourishment.
The operation was carried on under
strict antlseptic treatment, and as soon
as the sheep had served its purpose its
throat was cut. Only few such opera
ations have been successfully carried
out. The earlier method OF employ

1T ENDED in DEATH
LITTLE ETA MOODY IN A
TRANCE FOR TWO MONTHS.
She Aroused and Told Her Mother That
Angels Were Coming. Then She
Fell Back Exhausted.

Hollister, Fla. July 10.-Little Eta
Moody. who has been In a trance since
April 20, recovered consciousness yes
terday morning, talked in an ecstatic
way for half an hour. and then died.
The case Is regarded here as very re-
markable. The child was IL years old
and was in perfect health up to this
spring. Early In January she seemed
to be overfiowing with animal spirits
and at times became so boisterous that
her mother often reproved her. The
child would say in answer to these
reproofs that she couldn't keep still.
This perpetual motion caused the child
to become thin. A physician said Eta
was suffering from a nervous affec-
ton. but would out2-ow 1t. On April
20 the child went into convulsions.
When the spasms ceased she lay mo-
tionless and speechless, and continued
In that trance-like state till yesterday
morning. She took no nourishment. of
course. but, strange TO say. seemed to
gain flesh. The watchers at o'clock
a. m. yesterday saw the child move.
Then she opened her eyes and said In
natural tones to her mother: "They
are coming. mother
who. dear?" The angels" answer
ed Eta, and then she fell back ex-
hausted. She soon ceased to breathe.
Tests were applied TO prove that life
had fed. and the child was buried to-
day.

ONE HUNDRED INJURED.
Elks Social Session Rudely and Nearly
Disastrously Disturbed.

Atlantic City, N. j.. July 1o.-The So
cial session rendered by the Atlantic
City lodge to the visiting Elks at the
Baltic avenue casino this evening end
ed in a frightful disaster. fully 100 per-
sons being more or less injured. The
session had just opened. when, with
out the slightest warning, the building,
which has not been used for several
years, collapsed, and fully 100 persons
were thrown to the floor beneath.
Many women went down in tn ruins.
Fully 200 persons who were on the first
floor and imediately beneath the ban
quet hall, were crushed beneath the
timbers and lay helpless. The fact
that all the electric lights in the build
ing went out at the time the building
gave way, added to the confusion. An
alarm was, Immediately turned In and
the city's force of 200 firemen and ev-
cry police officer in the city were called
to the scene as hospital corps. The
police ambulance and carriages OF ey-
cry description were utilized to convey
the injured to the hospital and to their
hotels.
When the police and firemen had ar
rived on the scene. the excitement was
so intense that they scarcely knew
where to begin. An immense crowd Of
people had been attracted to the place
by the noise Of the falling building and
the groans of the unfortunates who
were pinned beneath the bricks and
timbers. The streets for several blocks
were choked. The ; was full OF anxi-
Gus inquiries for friends and relatives.
who were thought to have been in the
building. Within a few minutes the
police succeeded in clearing the space
in the immediate neighborhood OF the
building.
In the meantime the firemen had set
to work to extricate the wounded from
beneath the mass of timbers, and they
were aided In their work by the hotel
keepers and residents near the scene.
Every house was thrown open for the
reception Of tie injured. Meanwhile
the physicians were on the scene and
were doing all in their power to aid
the unfortunates. Almost every new
arrival upon the scene was frantic with
grief and anxiety for some relative or
friend. Their fears were to an extent
quieted, however. when it was learned
no lives had been lost. In the excite
ment OF the disaster II was almost i'm
possible to procure accurate details.
The list Of the injured cannot be fully
compiled tonight, but the following
are the more seriously injured: James

and the Cornell crew slowly padded to
their boat house. which was situated
about a quarter OF amile beyond the
finish.
The Cornell men presented a solemn
sight as they arrived at the boat house
where their friends In waiting did not
know the result. but there was no ne
cessity for asking the question. The
appearance OF the crew only too surely
gave the answer. Tears stood in Roe's
eyes as he stepped out. and the crew
were so exhausted that they could
scarcely lift their boat from the water.
Upon reaching their dressing rooms
half OF the Cornell crew lay down on
the floor and painted like hounds after
long run. Meantime the large boat
house had become crowded with Amer

Eustis' Interview.

Washington, July lo.-The Spanish
foreign office has cabled TO the Spanish
minister here. Senior Depuy de Lone.
concerning the reported interview with
Ambassador Eustis in the Paris Figaro.
with view to having the minister ask
the state department 10 disavow the
reported utterances OF Mr.. Eustis. The
cable was sent before Mr.. Eustis had
given a disavowal of the interview in
a statement to a London correspondent.
Naturally enough this doubt as to what
reflection Mr.. Eustis had made on
Spain or whether he has made any re-
Election. has prevented action by the
Spanish minister until the facts could
be established.
