Relics of the Work OF the Famous
Surgeon baron Larrey.

A~SAAVS VI thS Nbrh OF Hhe EnmOug
Surgeon baron Larrey.
From the Indianapolis News.
Or. William b. Fletcher has grim SOU
venir Of the work of a famous surgeon,
the Baron Larrey whom Napoleon re-
membered in his Will with gift of 100000
francs, and the tribute "to Larrey, my
surgeon, the most virtuous man have
known"
The relic is the upper part of the skull,
the calvarium, and shows a saber cut ex-
tending from the junction of the ocipitaI
and perietal bones forward of the orbital
ridge on the right side.
II well knew the man whose skull this
was" said the doctor turning the calva-
rum In his hand. He was a German
l have forgotten his name-and lived in
this city many years, dying about 1875, at
the age of so years. He took care of
horses for DR.. Parvin and for myself
about 1860, and also sawed wood to earn
his living.
He was taken care of by the Catholic
Sisters here in a hospital during the last
years of his life and as he had saved his
earnings, small though they were, he left
them a small farm in Kansas at his
death
He was a German I'm the French army,
and received this terrible cut from a Rus
sian saber as he told me, during the re-
treat from Moscow In 1872 He told me
that Baron Larrey operated on him He
was about II years old at the time, and.
though his life was saved, he was partial
ly paralyzed on one side ever after, and
dragged one foot until the day Of his
death
Here is where Baron Larrey eighty
five years ago, trepanned the skull and
lifted up the depressed bone to relieve
the brain. The orifce and the saber cut
through the skull both closed up with
membrane like a drumhead"

New York, Oct SO.-The dry goods mar
ket situation is no brighter and there is
no tangible reason for supposing that next
week will see a mend of the conditions.
Sellers have settled down to belief that
the business to be looked for now is that

to work along this line. The demand in
all cotton lines is dull as heretofore, and
in woolens there has come a lull between
the buying season and the time for de-
liveries, which makes the day to day mar,
