A Miracle OF Surgery.

A man named George Burns, who
will soon walk out Of Cook County
(Chicago) hospital, is living example
OF the miracles performed by modern
surgery. He went into the hospital
broken up in bone and body, and when
he leaves the hospital he will carry
with him a certificate showing he has
been the victim OF the most remarkable
assortment OF hurts that ever befell
mortal being. Surgeons report him
broken up as follows:
Loss OF the entire bony vault Of the
skull, the top Of the head being covered
with silver plate.
Five ribs gone from the left side Of
the body. having been removed by sur
geons in an operation.
Heart shifted from its natural posi-
tion to the right side in order to secure
a firm resting place for that organ
Both legs fractured in two places and
right arm broken twice.
Both elbow joints gone and the
cap Of the right knee twisted around
to the back OF the leg.
Large piece Of the breastbone taken
out in the removal OF a rife ball.
Part Of the windpipe missing.
Notwithstanding all that he has gone
through, the Tribune says, Burns is
still in condition to shift for himceli

trolley service without wire.

The electric trolley system to be intro
duced in Paris in time for the Interna-
tional exposition Of 1900 is vastly diff
erent from that commonly employed in
the United States. inasmueh as the
dangerous overhead wires are absolutely
done away with, according to the
Philadelphia Inquirer. The new sys-
TEN is the invention Of the French en-
gineer, Bochet, and, while rather sim
pie, il steers clear Of the objection of
unsightly obstruction which is usually
raised when overhead wires have to 90
up. Bochet establishes overhead con-
facts from electric lamposts belonging
to the city, the distance between posts
being somewhat smaller than the
length of the electric train, consisting
OF two OF three cars, 90 that contact is
always assured at one point at least
Through flexible points Of contact sus-
pended from each electric post along the
proposed line the current will be taken
up by means Of a copper rail fastened
along the edge OF the roof OF the car not
less than IA or ! 5 feet from the ground
The contact point will slide along that
copper rail and there Is not the slightest
difficulty in establishing continuous
current if the points Of contact are
made sufficiently elastic The current
Is allowed to return to the power sta
ton through the track Of the line. as
usual. This system offers all the bene-
fits of the overhead as we'll as of the
underground system without any OF
their shortcomings.
