Something Wrong.-We clip the fol-
lowing from Mondays Burlington Free
Press:
The Burlington Athletics returned
home Saturday, having played two
games on their trip. The first game was
played Thursday at st, Johnsbury with
the st. Johnsbury team and the Queen
City boys were victorious by score of
to 3. The batteries were McGettrick
and Henry for the Athletics and Cotton
and Mccartney for the St. Johnsburys.
The second game was at Danville with
the Clippers, and the score, 8 to Z, re-
suited in favor of the Danville club. The
battery for the Clippers was Smith and
Weston, the Burlington battery being
the same as that at St. Johnsbury.
The above is correct after making the
following corrections: The Burlington
team played at Danville Thursday, not
St. Johnsbury, and were defeated, II to
7. Their battery was not McGettrick
and Henry. Friday they played at St..
Johnsbury, and were again defeated SO
to 6. The battery again was not Nc
Gettrick and Henry. For st. Johnsbury
the battery was Cotton and French.
Just how the above report OF the two
games got into print is difficult to under
stand. They arrived at st. Johnsbury
with miscellaneous lot of six men, two
or three of whom could play ball. They
made up their nine with two men from
Danville and one from here. The ball
team and the people here expected to see
a fine exhibition of ball from a team that
had won Is straight games. Imagine
their disappointment. The boys here do
not recognize them as the Burlington
Athletic team 1t was evidently a case
of misrepresentation from the beginning,
ending with the above report of the trip.

Rev. Geo. e. Knapp's Case.-The
Missionary Herald for August prints the
charges made by the Turkish government
against missionary G. P. Knapp, who is
now at Constantinople awaiting trial.
He is charged with instigating disturb
ances i'll the province, of being in CORE
spondence with the insurgents, Of
attempting to abduct Khoordish girl
from her parents and of disappearing the
Imperial government and the Moslem
religion. I'm one word, he did his
utmost to disturb order and peace. He
acted as an intermediary in the exchange
OF guilty correspondence, propagated the
most revolutionary ideas" "He prom
ised to give 100 pounds to whomsoever
succeeded in killing one or more members
of the Bokaian family"
There are witnesses who stand ready
to swear to these and other like state
ments. The Turkish officials tried to
Danish Mr.. Knapp from the country
without trial. To this he refused and
has insisted on a judicial investigation
at Constantinople, where he now is. The
charges brought against him are absurd
and untrue. II witnesses were found to
testify to this truth, it must have been
under duress and the fear of the conse-
quences if they refused to do the will of
the officials, There is so much deceit,
falsity and cruelty in the Turkish govern
ment that it sticks at nothing to COM
pass its ends. 1t is well that he is to
stand trial before our minister and is not
left to the mercy of the Turkish courts.

Omaha. April 4.-The first case in
Omaha In which a surgical operation
was successfully performed with the
aid OF the X rays occurred last even
ing when doctors extracted a bullet
which had been located by means of a
Roentgen photograph taken by Pro-
fesscr Turner OF the Omaha H~,h
school The patient was John Feilc,
a 12-year-old boy. and the operation
WAS of such nature that 1t would
have been very serious without this
aid. About two weeks ago the boy
was accidentally shot. The ball EN-
tered the palm OF the left hand. owing
to the bony structure and tough it's
sues OF the hand II was practically TN
possible TO locate the bullet with a
Probe. Moreover. the two arteries
which cross the hand at that point rem
dered an lncision a serious matter I'M
less the exact location OF the bullet was
known. The X rays In an hour pro-
duced n perfect plate showing the bull
let which was easily extracted.
