Washington the other day, having
walked all the way from Arkansas.
He has invented a substance for the
protection of ships of war in battle,
and, having been unable by correspond
ence to make satisfactory arrange
nients for selling his invention to the
government, decided to come personal
by to Washington, Commodore Hich-
born saw at once that the invention was
impracticable, as a coating six feet
thick would be necessary to protect
vessels in action. But he was inter
ested in the boy and asked him how he
came to Washington.

way of New York, where 1 saw Thomas

EVANGELIST GETS A DIVORCE.

Perry, Ok, Aug. 6.-Rev. Robert NJ.
Thompson, a noted evangelist and re-
vivalist, formerly connected with the
Congregationalist church, but later an
independent travelling revivalist, was
given a divorce here from his wife,
Emma j. Thompson. Rev. Thomp-
son, in early life, was newspaper
man, well known in Cincinnati and
Louisville. He married his wife at
Urbana, o., in 1864, and to them sew
eral children were born, who now re-
side in Indiana, and are well-to-do cit
liens. 1t seems from Rev. Thomp-
sons testimony and petition that his
wife lost all love for him, although
she is leading literary woman and a
writer of some note. Her present
residence is in Indianapolis. Rev.
Mr.. Thompson alleges that he and his
wife have not been as husband and
wife for more than twelve years. Rev.
Mr. Thompson belongs to the noted
Kentucky Thompson family, and is
an intimate friend of Secretary Car
Isle.

honor of the distinguished Cuban who
was the first physician in this war to
lay down his life on the altar of his
country's liberty, and whose object is

government has forbidden the Red
Cross to penetrate into the Cuban
camps this club will endeavOr to take
it's place and care for the suffering
and dying in the Cuban ranks.
The club is composed of surgeons
who will give their services; of drug
gists, who will furnish medicines, and
others. Contribution of funds, how
ever from the general public would
not be unacceptable, and those sympa-
thizers who care to donate anything
toward the cause may address DR..

HIGH-HANDED RELIGIOUS AN
ARCHY.

Jacksonville, o., Aug. 6.-New Pitts
burg, a mining camp few miles from
this city, is the scene of the most in
tense religious excitement, bordering
on fanaticism. The leaders claim to
be in personal communication with
the Lord and act under instructions
from him. The excitement is so high
that families have been broken up
and numerous fights have occurred
over the matter. The people have
tried to get rid of the fanatics, but
failed. Warrants were sworn out
today for the arrest of the leaders,
Mart Searls and his two brothers, and
when arraigned before a justice of the
peace they were furious and denounc-
ed the court in most bitter terms, in
sulting the justice in the highest de-
gree, even climbing upon his desk and
splitting upon him. The trio was fin
ally placed in Jail and Mart was taken
to the Athens asylum. The others
will surely follow. Their followers
number about $50, some of whom
have given as high as $50 each upon
being converted. The more cOnserv-
ative people predict the trouble will
end in blOodShed.

Abilene, Kan, Aug. 6-The nomi-

delay the report was adopted as pre-
scented. The resolutions endorse the
st. Louis platform and Bryan and
Watson. They congratulate Kansas
that since the Populists have been in
politics many good laws have been
secured. They condemn the Repub-
lican house of representatives for fail
ing to pass bills sent from the Popu-
lists of the senate and demand that
the officers carry out the will of the
people; that the attorney general en-
force the statutes limiting corpora
tons to the business named in their
charters. and that railroads shall do
no other business than that of COM
mon carriers; they condemn favorit.

TERRAPlN CARRIES THE RECORD
Matrimonial Ventures of Miss Peele En-
graved on Its Back.

Fifty-six years ago, at Paoli, Ind,
Miss Davie Peele carved her name and
the date on the back of a land terrapin,
turning the creature loose. Ten years
later she married the clerk of Orange
county, and in the woods she again
found the terrapin, and she added her
new name, with the date. In the years
following her husband died and Mrs.
Weible moved to Hutchinson, Kan,
where she married DR.. Mckinley. In
1872, while revisiting her old home,
again the same terrapin was found,
and for the third time it's back was
graced with the lady's name. Quite
recently the identical terrapin again
turned up, and for the fourth time Its
back was ornamented with an inscrip-
ton. During the Sc years of its re-
corded history it has not increased its
size. Mrs. Mckinley is still living at
Hutchinson.

spects most satisfactory and uninter-
rupted.
"The operation occupied about one
hour and fifteen minutes. The trach-
eotomy tube was removed on the fifth
day. Much of the submaxillary wound
healed by first intention, but at one
point a troublesome opening was left
which interfered with my comfort
much by allowing food and air 10 es-
cape. I managed with difficulty to
swallow drink and food on the fourth
day. The opening, by constant care
and treatment, closed one month after
the operation, though a small external
sore remains, which is very rapidly clos

progress in the training of the muscles,

is more or less improved by the long
and patient educational efforts - the
struggle to make the right side do a
little of the work both in swallowing
and talking.
81 began taking some food by the
mouth ON the fourth day, but with very
great difficulty. The food had all to be
washed down. I had to actually lie
down upon my back and wash the soft
prepared food down into the oesopha-
gus. 1t was hard task.
This mechanical system of flushing,
too, was often attended with choking
and coughing, and the loss of the
tongue was felt so keenly that at times
had doubts as to my ability to live
long without it. There has been, how

disappointment was keen. Sentiment

croachments of the Populists upon

HAS LOST HIS TONGUE.
The Remarkable Case of Brad
ford (Pa.) Physician.
He Can Eat without Much Trouble and
Those Who Know Him Well Have
No Trouble In Getting tho
Sense of His Words.

One of the most remarkable surgical
operations of recent times is that which
DR.. A. NJ. Williams, of Bedford, Pa,
underwent not long ago. DR.. Williams
was a sufferer from a cancer which had
fastened itself ON the root of his tongue.
AS a last resort the tongue was re
moved by the surgeons knife, and the
doctor not only lives to tell the tale,
as he did to a New York Journal CORE
spondent, but to resume his practice as
3 physician.
While the doctor can eat solid food,
he prefers liquid nourishment, which
is specially prepared for him. He finds
some difficulty in talking, and whenever
he cannot make himself really under
stood he uses tablet and pencil, but
those who know him well have no
trouble getting the sense of his words.
DR.. Williams, in telling of the early de-
velopment of the disease, the operation
and the task of overcoming the mus
cular tendencies of his throat, said:
"The disease was undoubtedly ma
Egnant, beginning as a small lump on
the left side of the tongue near the base.
1t first appeared in May or June, 1895,
. being somewhat painful, and remaining
nearly stationary for several months.
1t then began to enlarge gradually and
to give me much pain, especially in the
left ear and at night. The growth was
steady. The tongue became stiffened,
speech was difficult and indistinct, the
pain became more intense and constant,
and finally the operation was per-
formed on March ., 1896.
"After tracheotomy an external incis-
ion was made from the angle of the jaw
below the body to the point of the chin.
Examination revealed disease so extern
sive as to render. necessary the re-
moval of the entire tongue, the left ton
sill, left submaxillary and sublingual
