Saved the Life ofa Boy Whose Csrvical
Vertehrae Was Fractured.
Two Cleveland surgeons, Charles b. Hum.

In triumph OF surgery which will astound
the medical world. They have brought to o

old boy, who sustained o complete fracture OF
the third cervioal vertebrae. The fracture
was exactly the same as that which Is an.
nounced In tho account Of executions by
hanging, wherein II is stated "the neck was
broken and death was instantaneous"
Erwin Keldel received his injury on Aug.
ust "a, when he was run over by heavy
wagon. The wheel doubled his head under
his body and the neck vertebrae snapped
with q sound like tho crack OF a whip. DIR.
Kalstlin was Immediately on the scene.
Holding the boys head so thatthe respiration
returned, the doctor drove with him TO the
hospital. There DR.. Humlston was called
and the two surgeons determined to throw
precedent aside and enter into a struggle
to save the boys life.
Delicate operations were entered into with
the object Of having the fractured vertebrae
knit. and then the boys head was placed In
an immovable iron cage while his body was
also strapped down immovably. A month
after the time OF the accident the cage was
removed and the surgeons were amazed to
find that their hopes had been entirely real.

The work ON George W. Vanderbilt's estate
near Asheville, n. c., ,on which he has erected
a mansion that breaks all records for resi-

ly finished. The mansion stands on spot
once occupied by a mountain peak. Mr..
Vanderbilt had the peak cut Off and carted
away. In order to expedite the construction

A curious law case is reported from
Milan, Italy. A young lady sued a
young mana perfect stranger-for
having kissed her, suddenly and with.
ont warning, in the open street. When
she entered the box to give evidence
against him, the Judge was SO struck
with her beauty that he instantly &C.
quilted the accused, on the grounds
THAT 80 much loveliness and charm
had doubtless proved an irresistible
temptation" Perhaps the most re-
markable feature of the trial was that,
instead of being annoyed at losing her
case, the plaintiff was delighted with
the verdict, and uttered friendly
farewell to the judge as she left the
court beaming with smiles, whilst the
accused was heartily applauded us he
retired in triumph with his friends

SAITH CONGRESS- IN SESSION
REED ELECTED SPEAKER.
Many New Faces in Both Branches. Some
Young,solons.

The Fifty-fourth congress began its public
sessions at noon Monday with crowded gal
leries and many other manifestations of acute
interest In its proceedings including, Of
course, the inevitable floral decorations.
There were fifteen new faces among the sena-
tors. not counting Mr.. Chiffon, OF Texas. who
re-occupied seat he once held before by ap-
pointment, and there were in addition thir-
teen reelected senators TO be sworn in by
Vice President Stevenson as their own sue
cessors. OF the old senators whose terms
will expire two years from now, some OF the
most prominent. including Blackburn. Brice,
Hill, Voorhees,. Vest and PETER took their
seats Monday, with the shadow hanging over
them Of strong probability that their places
might be filed by others when this congress
expires.
The rehabilitated senate chamber had
quite changed appearance. This arose as
much from the rearranging OF the seats Of
those who remain a. from the absence OF the
familiar faces OF those who had been retired.

lima, transferred TO Mexico courtly, hand

dersons alert face and sonorous voice,
washburns dignifed presence, and Nc
Pherson's matchless deportment-the con.
presence of so many new men, gave the
Senate an unaccustomed look.
In the House OF Representatives the
changes were still more marked. One Of the
features which provoked comment from the
galleries was the youthful appearance Of
many of the new members. Several States
have sent as representatives men who are
still In their twenties. Probably two score q
others are under 40. In point OF age, th
present house Is the youngest known to th
history OF American legislation. These boy.

hour the public galleries had already quite
sprinkling of visitors, the ladies' gallery In
particular, being more than half filed.
The next senator to appear was Mr.. Stew

the venerable senator from Vermont Mr.
Morrill,. After that they came in rapidly
and at noon, the hour Of convening the
seats were generally filed and the galleries
were overllowing.

PROTECT USERS OF "RoYAL." /"
Baking Powder Company Wins Its Case
in United States Court.

The decision OF Judge showalter in re.
cent case that came up before him sustains
the claims Of the Royal Company to tho ex.
elusive use of the name "Royal" as n trade
mark for its baking powder. The special
importance of this decision consists IN the
protection which 1t assures TO the millions OF
consumers OF Royal Baking Powder. The
excellence Of this article has caused IL TO be
highly esteemed and largely used almost the
world over. Its high standard Of quality
having always been maintained. consumers
have come to rely implicitly upon the "Boyal"
brand as most wholesome and efficient II
other manufacturers could sell under the
name of o well known, reputable brand, in
calculable damage would be done 20 the pub
lie by the deception. The determination OF
the Royal Baking Powder Company to pro-
tect the users Of the Royal baking powder
against imitators by n rigid prosecution OF
them makes such limitations OF its brand ex.
tremey rare.

THE INDUSTRIAL WORLD.
CANADIAN KNIGHTS sEcEDE.
They will Flock by Themselves and Elect
Officers.

Considerable excitement was caused in labor
circles in Toronto, by n report from Montreal
that the Knights OF Labor there had decided
to secedc from the General Assembly and
form a purely Canadian order This action
on the part Of the Quebec Knights was unex-
pected, the complaints against the General
Assembly having oil come from Ontario labor
men.
1t is now foregone conclusion that the
Ontario Knights will also secede from the
General Assembly in which event they will
join Quebec and form Canadian order. Al
ready several nominees have been suggested
for the offices which such action will leave
open, ID. A. Carey being mentioned as being
likely 10 receive the position Of General Mas
ter Workman Of the Canadian order.
The chief complaint against the General
Assembly has been the manner In which the
officers were elected. many claiming that sew
eral appointments were illegally made.
There are about $4,000 Knights of Labor in
Canada.

Northwest has proved a failure, and came to
an abrupt end Sunday, when the senator
closed his business arrangements with his
manager. cancelled all further engagements
and returned to New York. The reason as
signed for this action is that he contracted n
severe cold at Duluth, making him adverse
to further public speaking at present. The
fact II, however, that the audiences which
gathered 10 listen to him AT Milwaukee,
Minneapolis, 81. Paul and Duluth were SO
meager that the financial returns were in

Quite a number of odd emigration
movements IN the West are now un-
der way. A considerable party of peo-
pie who years ago settled in Nebraska
are on the move to Georgia. Kansas
people are moving to Nebraska; Dn-
kota folks are moving to Kansas, and
a great many Norwegians are moving
from Minnesota to the Canadian
Northwest. Twenty-Five Norwegian
emigrants started from Crookston,
Mimi, for settlement near Van
couver, founded a year or SO ago,
called New Norway. The migration
OF farmers across the international
boundary is pretty constant. Mani
tobians come over into Minnesota and
the Dakotas, and discontented folks
from these States move over into Man
itoba, The moral of all this problemlis,
the New York Sun philosophers, that
no place is everybody's FL Dorado, no
matter what land boomers and real
estate agents claim for their particu.
lar localities.
