A DISSIPATED SURGEON.
Causes an Injured Railway Employe
to Obtain Large Verdict.

indianapolis, Dec. 19-Where a rail-
way company supports a hospital for
the care of disabled employees, retaining
money from their wages for services
rendered, under a decision of the SUI
preme court today, the company is re-
sponsible for the malpractice of a. sur
geon employed in such hospital.
Frank NJ. Kelley was a fireman for
seven years on the Wabash railway,
during which time he paid so cents
monthly to the hospital fund. His foot
was crushed by an engine in August,
1893, and a surgeon employed by the
company amputated it. He was then
removed to the company's hospital at
Peru, where a second amputation was
performed one week after the first. The
surgeon in charge was shown to be ad-
dicted to use of cocaine, and with
drinking as much a quart of whisky in
a single night, and it is alleged that the
second amputatiOn was unnecessary,
and was negligently performed, so as
to require a third amputation three
months later, at which time several
inches of the bone were removed. Soon
after the second amputation the sur
geon was discharged because of drunk
enness, and he was treated in an asy-
lum for inebriates, dying after his re-
lease. Kelley brought suit for damages
and the court below awarded him, after
much litigation. $500. The appeal was
filed in July, 1898. the record covering
1900 pages.

INDIANA "COME-OUTERS."
Very Peculiar Beliefs of Religious
Enthusiasts.

Indianapolis, Dec. 19.-The ''Come-Out-
ers'' a new type of religious enthusiasts,
are gaining in numerical strength in south
ern Indiana. The gist of their belief is
that the Savior viii return to earth in
1900, and that he win select 144.00, people
to be translated, none of whom will suffer
the pangs Of death. These selections will
not be made from the church nor, in fact
from any organization, and so they are
withdrawing from all earthly affliation in
order to be prepared for the coming Of the
Lord. This why they style themselves
the Come Cutters
They also have a theory that hell is s.,
600 acres across and located somewhere in
the bowels of the earth, but it will be
found large enough to cover all those who
are not eTnbra ced in the IA 900 elect. The
other place, meanwhile, they believe,
hangs in mid-heaven; where the sun
shines seven times brighter than 1t does
on earth. while the moon is equally as
resplendant. They do not base this belief
on any particular scriptural authority,
but simply take things for granted. All
that is necessary for those wanting to see
the New Jerusalem is to get in the right
way" The "COme-Outers'' attract great
crowds to their meetings, and they are
rapidly catching on in the lower end Of
Gibson county and in Pike, Orange and
adjoining territory.

BOTH VICTIMS OF ALCOHOL
Frederick Fischer and Wife in Belle

New York, Dec. 19.-In the insane pa
viliOn of Bellevue hospital today was
Frederick @. Fischer, son Of Charles
Fischer the piano manufacturer. In the
alcoholic ward of the hospital was his
wife, Mrs. Nellie Fischer, and neither
knew the other was there.
The man was committed on complaint
of his father, the woman was brought
to the hospital by her father. A COM

The firm of J. & G. Fischer is one of
the Oldest and richest piano concerns in

Charles Fischer is very rich There are
five members of the Fischer family in
the piano firm at present Frederick

stantly since their marriage. Mrs.
Fischer's father says so, and the words
come from him painfully, while he bows
his head.
Frederick Fischer was taken from the
court to Bellevue in an ambulance. He
was not violent, but he raved and talk

seems absolutely shattered.
Mrs. Fischer had no idea of what had

A New York Bachelor Found a
Woman Burglar.
"COme Out" Said He, ''I Will, -
Said She, ''But Don't Hit"
SHE CAME FEET FIRST.
Woman Proved That She Loved
Her Children
And Maybe RObs For Their Sake
- They We're Hungry.

New York, Dec. 19.-EmiI Marx,
lone bachelor, looked under his bed yes
terday, and there found a woman,
professional burglar. This will interest
the many nervous women who have so
long been looking under the bed,
trembling lest they should find a man
there. Mr.. Marx did not realize that
he had a woman to deal with So he
exclaimed;
Come out from there
Ct will answered a shrin voice. st
will, if you don't hit me with that
stick
Mr.. Marx, much surprised, said he
would not, and the burglar crawled out,
In her arms she still clasped a bundle
of $34 worth of Mr. Marks clothes
When afterward her pockets were
searched, seventeen keys, of all shapes
and sizes, twisted wire and burglars
small implements were found in her
pockets.
Marx lives at No. 365 Evergreen ave-
nue., East New York. He went to work
yesterday, but he did not feel we'll and
returned home at 1870 a. m. The door
was locked as he left 1t. He was in his
sitting room when he heard a noise in
his bedroom, and, at last, looked under
the bed.
Marx marched the woman to the
street and handed her over to a police
man, who took her to the Ralph Ave
nue. station house.
Mrs Pauline Umbekant, 80 years
old, No. 1925 Myrtle avenue she said,
answering the sergeant's questions. But
the police quickly recognized her as
Mrs. Pauline Bergman, who has
changed her name as often as her skirt.
Early in 1897 she was caught stealing
several hundred dollars worth of jewel
~ from a house, and in May of that
year she pleaded guilty to grand larceny.
In doing so she protested her innocence
and said her lawyer advised her to
plead guilty. Justice Hurd sent her to
Auburn prison for a year and a half,
and having served her term she was
released a few weeks ago.
The police and the agents Of the Chill
dren's society say the burglars husband
is Otto Umbekant, a bricklayer, who
never properly supported his wife and
their two children, Curtis, u years old,
and Minnie, years. When his wife
set about breaking into houses Umbe-
kant discreetly left her. She has one
good trait, at least; she loves her chill
dren. When she was sent to prison the
Children's society took charge of them;
when she was released her friends got
possession of them and returned them
to their fond, burglariOUs parent. The
two children were found at No. 1925
Myrtle avenue yesterday and again
placed in the society's care.
The appearance of Mrs. Umbekant's
rooms goes to prove she is very Door.
