HANGED That HE MIGHT LIVE.
Peculiar Surgical Operation Successfully
Performed in California Hospital.

Peculiar Surgical Operation Successfully
Performed in a California Hospital.
(From the San Francisco Chronicle.)
A very delicate and extremely rare sur
gical operation. has been performed sue
cessfully at the French Hospital in this
city upon G. Hoffman, young German
farmer. By it not only his life uhas been
saved, but he is on the speedy way to the
recovery of health. Hoffman was en-
pleyed on farm near Knights Ferry
During the latter part of July he fell
backward off wagon, striking the hard
ground with the back of his head, and
fractured the third cervical vertebra, an
injury (which in nearly every case proved
fatal. An examination by the physicians
in the country disclosed the seriousness
of the injury, and they gave it as their
opinion that not one in thousand ever
could survive it, The fracture prevented
the moving of the injured mans head in
any direction The slightest attempt to
move the head caused violent vomiting,
brought on fainting spells, and impeded
respiration. The patient was given very
little nourishment with a spoon, and had
to be kept constantly in one position.
His frame wasted away, and yet he
fingered, suffering great agony.
On Aug. IL he was brought to the
French hospital in this city, where the
physicians decided upon an operation as
the only possible means of saving the life
of the patitnt. In the presence of the
hospital house staff and number OF con-
sulting physicians the operation was per-
| formed Aug. 10. An incision was made
| in the neck, exposing the vertebrate, which
showed the injury to the third process,
the arch of which was removed, as was
portion of the second vertebra, thus re-
moving the obstacle to the unrestricted
motion of the head. The wound was
closed and an extension apparatus ap-
piled.
The patient rests on an inclined plane
The weight of his body acts as counter
extension to the weight applied tosthe ex-
| tension apparatus which is attached to
| the head, and the patient is virtually
suspended by the neck until he shall be
restored to health. The wound has been
dressed four times since the operation
was performed and the patient is doing
we'll AT the last dressing DIR. Oscar ]
Mayer, the operating surgeon, was yery
sanguine that his patient would soon be
restored to perfect health.

WALTZ REFORM.
Professors of Dancing Set Down on
Prompting.

The annual convention of the
American society of professors of dane
ing was opened at Pierce hall, Boston,
Tuesday. 1t was the Goth gathering of the
society, and the delegates, who represent
every leading city 1.-the country, came
prepared for four days session. The
interest in the convention on the part of
the fact that places as far away as Colo
RADIO Springs and Los Angeles are repre-
sented in the delegates.
Tuesdays session was taken up pr1ncl-
pally with routine business, though meas
ures were taken to bring bout reform
in certain of the popular dances and to
introduce several new ones.
Among the members Of the society
there is q feeling that the criticism of the
Countess of Anaster, that dancing has
degenerated into a graceless romp, is JUS
titled from the facts. According to some
of them such criticism applies particular
ly to the waltz, which, when executed by
those who appreciate the grace of motion,
isBone of, the prettiest of the dances. The
position taken by too many couples in the
waltz is found fault with by members of
the association, and it is probable that at
the !. final days session some emphatic
declaration will be made regarding it.
Several new members were elected, and
director Holland was given the considera-
ton of the following work, which will be
presented to the society later: Highland
two-step, by F.. W. Vizay; Hattingen,
by Oskar Duenweg; Kiner Tanz, by D.
B. Brenneke; Nayasset, by T. A. Hol-
land; cotillion figures, by Walter L. Cur
tbs; Capital three-step, by George Prut-
ting; Spanish waltz quardrille, by 7. A.
Holland; position practice, by James P.
Brooks; Boston dip, Harvard dip, by NJ.
B. Gilbert.
Regarding changes and new dances, the
following statement is made by the COM
mittee having the matters in charge:
''Many new and exceedingly pretty in
novations in the terpsichorean art were
introduced atIthis meeting, which will
probably result in several favorable
changes in this seasons dancing, especially
the obnoxious waltz position that has
become quite fad during the past sea-
son, and which has done more to degene-
rate dancing than anything else connect
ed with this charming and fascinating
amusement"
