HIS LEG is STILL GROWING.
II Gets Longer and Longer. and He Can't
Stop 1t.

A man out at Rogers park broke his
leg few months ago, and in the setting
the doctor made some mistake, or else
the patient was at fault, for when 1t set
the bone Joined improperly, and when
the man came to walk he found that
one leg was several inches shorter than
h should be. He was naturally worry
much inoonvenienced and bemoaned the
fact that he was to be a cripple for life.
One day while he was alone at the
house woman book canvasser was ad-
mitted. After she had failed to sell him
what she had she asked him what the
matter was. He told her and said that
he feared he would be a cripple for life.
"Humphi" said the woman. "There
10 no need Of that now since Christian
science is doing SO much
81 have heard a great deal about
Christian science, said the man, "but
I never heard that it could cure trou.
BILE like mine.
"Why not?" asked the woman. at
Is doing greater things than that every
day. You would better go see healer. "
"But there is none here, replied the
man.
"Well, +" said the woman, "I'm some.
thing of healer myself. can't stay
here, but I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll
give you the absent treatment. You just
stay where you are, and I'll cure your
short leg" And she went away.
The man smiled. but he thought there
might be something in it after all. So
he began to have faith in the healer. In
o few days, however, he had almost for
gotten all about it and joked with his
wife about the matter. AT the end Of
two weeks he arose to standing posi-
tion and discovered to his great aston
lshment that his short leg was nearly
- long as the other. He was delighted.
"That woman was all right" he said
to his wife, land / have done her a
great injustice in smiling in my disbe-
lief" In a fortnight more both legs
were of equal length. He left his roor-
for the first time in several months and
went to business. He proudly showed
his leg to all his friends and told every
one of the marvellous means by which
he recovered. Everything went we'll
for time, but presently the man made
the astonishing discovery that the cured
limb was still growing. In another two
weeks it was fully two inches longer
than the one which had not been broken
and that it was the yell leg on which
he now limped.
This naturally worried him very
much. You see, there was no telling
where it would end. Then he recollect-
ell, too, that he had no idea who the
healer was, or where he could find her.
He could not even remember the name
of the book she was trying to sell. And
that is how the matter now stands. The
mans leg is still growing. That woman
IL still gadding around the country SELL
ing books and giving him the absent
treatment. If he does find her, she will
have to begin ON the other leg, and even
then the man will only be fit for the
dime museum. The mans faith in the
new science is still unbroken, but he
feels that the healers should be securely
anchored and kept within certain
bounds Chronicle.

VOLUNTEERS
ARE ALL HEROES

CHICAGO, March CA special dispatch
to the Record from Washington says:
Adiutant General Corhin says that moth
ing has occurred in the history of the
country to endear the volunteer troops TO
the regular organization as their con-
duct at Manila during the present move
p2ent or MaloIos. Not only have they
shown excellent discipline but they have
eagerly sought duty on the firing line and
have never faltered in IN advance on the
enemy. There has been no Sinking in
their regiments and no complaint when
called upon to bear the brunt of an as
sault. Their record fto.n the moment
they embarked to the present time has
been excellent and the reports RECEIVED
OF the war department, General Corbin
says, indicate hat any attempt at
sending them home for muster ont be-
fore the campaign is completed would eX-
cite a riot. They desire to remain as
long as there is any .,ghting to be done
and the Department., Ill recognition of
their excellent service, will not order
them home until the military problem in
the Philippines is solved, n the volun-
teers formally request to be relieved.
Surgeon General %Sternberg says the
medical department in the Philippines is
ready and prepared for any emergency
which may arise. The hospital ship Re-
ilCl. iiA iNII -NSH u oEN6idl "GthS
ago laden with supplies, is about half
| way to Manila and her arrival is ex-
| pected at that port about April Is. She
carries an abundance of medical supplies
of every description and has many medi-
cal officers, hospital stewards, privates
and nurses aboard. The officers in
charge at Manila have plenty of funds
to make any necessary purchases and
have full authority aud discretion III
every particular. Hospitals have been
constructed at Manila and the vicinity
in anticipation of trouble with the insur-
gents and every conceivable preparation
for the sick have been made. Surge ms
from the American warships IN the har-
Dor have come ashore and are co-opCrat-
ing with the medical officers of the army
III the treatment of the wounded.
Surgeon General Sternberg has receiv-
ed a very interesting report from Lieut.
enant Colonel L. l.. Lippincott, the chief
surgeon at Manila, showing the accom-
modatiOns at hand and the preparations
which have been made. A convalesceLt
hospital has been established on Corri-
gidor island at the entrance of Manila
bay, some 80 miles west of the CITY. A
steamer makes daily trips to the island.
1t is Impossible to say what benefit the
troops will receive, but it will be consid-
cradle as there are healthy ocean breezas
and an absence of unhealthy surround
ings.

De MAND FOR
CALIFORNIA FRUIT

San Francisco, March 29.-Secretary
Filcher, of the state board of trade, SAID
today:
'sThe demand for California fruit this
wear will over-measure the quantity on
hand. The reports from the interior
show that the prospects are OF a
splendid character. 1t is not nllkely
that the whole country will look to Cali
fornia for the greatest amount OF Its
fruit. Florida has suffered disastrously
from frost, Georgia, which shipped 1000
carloads of peaches last year, has scarcely
anything to show this season, and New
Jersey and Delaware, foremost peach
states of the east, are in sad straits.
Even Michigan has had a hard time, and
so have other states from which a large
supply was expected. 1t is rather too
early to say with amy approach to ac-
curacy what the California fruits may
bring in the market. The local firms
have not yet made up their selling lists"
Representatives of several prominent
fruit dealing firms confirmed the views
expressed by Secretary Filcher.

The Portland Located

Boston, March 2S.-It is believed that
the hull of the lost steamer Portland has
been located. The crew of the schooner
Maud S. yesterday hauled up a quantity
OF steamer finishings e~ntangled in their
fishing travis. The point at which it
was brought up was 221a miles east, half
north, from Boston light. The depth of
the water was between so and 60 fathoms.
Only a few weeks ago another fisherman,
at very nearly the same place, brought
up some ~washbowl fittings, but these
could not be positively identified. The
articles just found, when brought ashore
today, Were positively identified by
Agent c. +. Williams of the Portland
line as being a part of the f~inishings in
one of the cabins of the steamer, while
the finding of a garter leads to the belief
that there are bodies in the wreck. Of
the 200 human beings who went down
with the steamer in the terrific gale of
November 26 and q, the remains of less
than 80 persons We're ~ecovere along the
shore of Capa Cod. over 80 miles away.
1t is possible, therefore, that many
bodies are in the wreck.

WORK OF THE
RED CROSS
Its Scope Will be Greatly En-
larged Soon.
PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
Will be to Divide This Country Into
Several Districts Presided
Over by Chiefs.
PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

New York, March 29.-The Herald says
that plans are afoot to r~e-organize the
National Red Cross society. with a view
to greatly increasing it's scope. The or
SANITATION is in the hands of a commit
tee composed of George F. Belde of the
Waldorf-Astoria hotel; John J. Edison,
president of the Loan and Trust COM
pany of Washington, and Edwin Hay,
the well known Washington lawyer.
Primarily, it is intended to establish per-
7nanent headquarters Of the National
Red Cross society in Washington. The
proposed plan c~ontemplates the erection
Of a building at Washington to be de-
voted solely to the uses of the society.
The chief officers of the society are to
be a president, vice pesident and chief
of staff.
The duties of the latter official will be
that of a general manager, who will ex-
ercise a general control of the work Of
the society throughout the country, SUBJ
ject to the authority of Miss Barton as
president, and the board of directors.
The proposed plan does not contemplate
extending the work Of reorganization at
present to Cuba, Hawaii or the Philippine
islands.
In the United Stats the country will be
divided into departments, as they now
exist. Each department will be admin
istered by a chief, who will have con-
troll of the territory under his charge
and who will in turn be responsible to
the executive committee Of the board Of
directors. 1t will De the duty of each
chief to so organize his department that
local Red Cross societies will be estab-
lished in the cities and towns within his
Jurisdiction. These societies will be re-
sponsible to him. There are now in the
United States eight military depart
ments. The plan contemplates that the
chief of every society's department and
other persons from the same department
shall be members of the national execu-
tive committee. This would give 16
members of the committee, Or if it should
be decided to increase the number Of de-
partments, the number of delegates
would be c~orrespOndingly increased.
The plan does not contemplate that any
person connected with the society shall
receive pay for services, except the chief
of staff at Washington, n the clerical
and similar labor which it viii be abso-
lutely necessary to employ.
