CURE FOR APPENDICITIS.
Quick Relief Without Use of Knife
or Medicine.

New York June 14.-One of the
most unusual operations yet recorded in
surgery was performed recently on a
young woman in this city, by which
was effected the cure of a case of ap-
pendicitis No knife was used, no med
icine, no poultices, no ice packs-none
of the usual methods of physicians and
surgeons to treat this most serious of
ailments. So simple was the method
employed that only eight minutes
elapsed from the time the physician
reached the patient until he had COM
pleted his work, and, as he believes,
successfully. The young woman is 20
years old and belongs to an excellent
family in Harlem. She does not care
to have her name used in connection
with the story, so it is withheld. The
operation was performed by DR.. George
]. Helmer of Madison avenue and
Thirty-first street
In explaining the treatment, DR.. Hell
mer said:
THE method of treatment is the one
used by all osteopathists and has been
in use by them for some time"
To demonstrate. the doctor placed
the thumb of the reporters left hand
fatty in the palm of his right hand.
Then he slapped the PLAN of the hand
smartly against the broad of the
thumb.
THE hand represents the psoas mus
Gle" he said, and the thumb the ap-
pendix. We produce a spasmodic con-
traction of the psoas magnus, like the

reason we cannot build a line out to
Gage park this year"
The old Belt Line, which formerly
ran out to Martins hill, ran through
the middle of Gage park on Eighth
avenue extended, but it was abandon
ed long ago and the track torn up.
When the trolley line is extended the
Tenth avenue line will be the one from
which the extension will be made. The
park can be reached in a shorter dis
lance and over a better territory than
it can either by extending a line from
the west end of Sixth avenue or by
building from the asylum to the park.
AT present the Tenth avenue line is
built to Eleventh and Washburn ave
nue.. To reach the park from there it
would be built west 16 short blocks to
South Brentwood addition, and then
north past the Scudder property on
Highland, the extension OF which forms
the east boundary of the park 1t would
probably be the intention to build it
north to the gate of the park, either on
Eighth or Seventh street. 1t would
require about 5000 feet of track.
The Sutherin property, on which it is
proposed to build the odd Fellows
home, adjoins part of Gage park on the
east.
The deed to the city specifies that 20
acres on the south end of the tract may
be leased to the Country club, but that
organization has not decided what it
will do with reference to the matter.

PREY OF BEGGARS
Governor Is Continually Har-

Letter From Texas Contains a
Demand For $50.

Months.

SALARY is NOT LARGE

c. c. Beaver, writing to Governor
Stanley from Denver, Tex, informs the
governor that he is very much in need
of money and would be pleased to re-
ceive $50 from him by return mail. Dea-
yer is one of the men who believes that
the world owes him living.
The letter starts out by conveying to
the governor warm congratulations up
his eminent success as the chief ex-
ecutive of Kansas. The author of the
letter admits that he has been great
admirer Of Stanley for many years, but
has not had an opportunity OF so IN
forming the governor. The letter ram
bles on and on until the closing para
graph, then Deaver gets down to- bust
ness. He says:
My dear governor, am an invalid
and need a new bicycle, medicine and a
few luxuries. I am able to walk only
a few miles each day. 1 believe I can
fix myself up for a long stay on earth
with $50. Yes, I must have $50. So
please do delay this matter unneces-
sarily, but send me the money by re-
turn mall
Another admirer writes from Barton
county, Kansas, to the governor, asking
him to interfere with the action of the
courts in forecIosing his property for
failure to pay mortgage and accrued
interest.
The governor has not replied to these
demands.

eign substance from the appendix, and
relief follows Immediately"
Just back of the appendix is the larg
est muscle in the human body. known
as the psoaS magnus. 1t is attached to
the femur or big bone of the leg, and is
the muscle by which one can revolve
the leg as on pivot at the heel. 1t is
this muscle which is made to do the
trick of emptying the appendix. Using
the fingers of one hand to hold the
walls of the abdomen in place and to
prevent a rupture of the delicate inter
nal structures, with the other hand a
spasmodic contraction of the psoas
magnus is brought about, which snaps
it against the appendix and is said to
force out of that organ whatever of
foreign substances it may contain.
DR.. Homer L. OStram of AZ West
Forty-eighth street, one of the best
known specialists on appendicitis in
this country, said:
Anything that will help in this line
must be welcomed. There are some
cases where such a method of cure as
this would apply. There are other cases
where it would be impossible to do any
good by this method, and, indeed, it
might be dangerous to use it,

/ The Newspaper men were really tired
of batting or the figures might have
been worse. The reasons for this strange
outcome are various and convincing
One is that "Grimsey old boy" was not
the whole thing. Charley Ridgeway,
the Franklin county pumpkin show
man, from Ottawa, played center field
and shared honOrs with the treasurer.
He is as active as badger and rotund
as a barrel.
Ridgeway was attired in a beautiful
olive brown pair of stockings, a big
straw hat, a baseball suit and a red
bandanna. He wore a brand new pair
of white pig skin husking mits and
carried tar bucket out to center field
to keep his hands soft. His trousers
were ripped and gave him no little
trouble for he tried to keep his back
away from the grand stand all the time.
In running after flies he went back
wards and some times heels overhead.
He was even more of a star attraction
than "Grimsey'' but the old boss from
LeOti played short. He had been ad-
vanced since the first game from cor
poraI to sergeant and wore two white
stripes down the sides of his knee
trousers. He was a little bit off and
after trying to stop a hot Stingeree from
Barnes he quit trying to stop hot ones
and was content with trying to befuddIe
the umpire.
The star hitting was done by Charles
Barnes for the Newspaper men. With
three men on the bases he stepped to
the bat in the third inning and pounded
over center fielders head with never
any danger of its being caught. The
center fielder realized the situation and
started in pursuit. The next time to
bat he sent liner to Grimes. Grimes
hung to it for a while but it was hot
and he let go.
The Newspaper infield was a verita BILE
Twentieth Kansas phalanx and the ball
could not go through. The only time it
reached the gardens, except in a few
cases, was by going over and then it
generally dropped into a well. One thing
was noticeable about both sides and
that was that the players fell down at
the least prOvOcation. They would stand
up and fall down. Riddle at third for
the governors fell right under the ball
and it cracked his pate. Miller the
fell, rolled over and then tried to catch
it while he remained on his back

LOOKS LIKE A TRUST.
State Charter Board Investigating a
Smelter Company.

The Lanyon Smelter company which
is a New Jersey corporation and sup
posed to be a part of the great trust
has been for some months making an
effort to secure a charter to do business
in Kansas. The application has been
held up by the state charter board, the
members of which believe the corpora
ton is a trust.
Representatives of the company ap-
peared before the charter board yester-
day and made a statement calculated
to disprove this theory but the members
of the board do not feel like giving the
company a charter until a more definite
showing is made of capital stock. on
