An experienced patent attorney says
it is the patents upon simple articles
in which there is most money. One
reason is that it does not cost much to
get them out, and another is that they
do not attract attention until the IN

prevented some fellow from slipping in
stealing the fruits of his discovery
Probably not more than 1 per cent of

GIRL SAILORS CAST AWAY.
Their Yacht Capsized While Sailing
i'm Nnrragansctt Bay.

Providence. r. l., July Miss Mary
Bourne. the young daughter of the Rev.
F. Bourne, OF New York, had thrilling
experience with a woman friend while
yachting in middle Narragansett Bay yes
terday. Miss Bourne is a fearless sailor,
and when she goes out for day at the
helm she wants the wind TO blow.
4 stiff northeasterly breeze was blowing
Yesterday morning when she decided to
take a sail in her sloop- rugged whaleboat
along Warren River and down as far as
Bristol Bay When well out on the open
bay big squan struck the craft beam on,
and Miss Bourne and her single female
sailor were cast into the rough waters.
The boats keel soon came TO the surface,
and both young women held on for dear
life The mishap was witnessed mile
away by Samuel Peck and party of
friends, who were out in the yacht Rarus.
They went to the rescue, and soon lad the
two women safe ashore.
Miss Bourne said her friend had been
down 10 the bottom OF the bay ONCE, but
that the skirts OF her yachting suit un-
doubtedly did much toward keeping Ler
afoat until help arrived
Miss Bourne was capsized once before
in a fierce gale that swept up the bay
and she was then picked up by rescueIs
from the shore. On another occasion, last
summer. she went out in I stiff blow in a
small shiff and rescued two drowning men
who had been capsized from, sailboat
which had sunk out Of sight.
Miss Bourne has long been the heroine
of the east shore owing 10 her daring on
that and other occasions She is summer
resident at Adams Point. and the young
woman friend who had such a narrow es-
cape yesterday also comes from New York.

MADE A DUMB MAN SPEAK.
Successful Operation for hcmovinG
RIOod-Clots From the Brain.

Geneva, n Y. July Surgeons in this
vicinity are watching with great interest
the case of Eugene Brace, of Oaks Cor
ners, who through an operation on the
brain in the city hospital here last Friday
has regained the power of speech, recov
cred his memory and has been relieved of
paralysis of the right side.
While repairing barn on April IS Bra
zee was struck on the left side Of the head
by falling timber He was slightly S un-
ned, but rallied in a few minutes and re-
sumed his work The skull was not fract-
ured, and except for a large bump where
the timber struck there were no immedi-
ate ill effects from the injury.
Physicians decided, however, that he
had received injuries that would ultimate
ly prove fatal if they did not receive prop
er attention. About three weeks ago Bra
zee found that he was losing his memory
ard one day he forgot his name. Soon
afterward he lost the power of speech,
and gradually his whole right side became
paralyzed. DR.. Church. of Oaks Corner,
Braces physician, called in DR.. Covert
and Dr. Skinner, of this city. in consuita-
tion. The seat of the trouble was located
in the motor tract of the left side OF the
brain. An operation was deemed nscesSa-
~.
As there was no fracture, it was necesSa-
ry for DR.. Skinner, who performed the
operation. assisted by Dr.. Covert and DR..
Church, to cut through the skull, and as
soon as this was done the diagnosis made
at the consultation was proved to be cor
rect A blood vessel in the brain had been
Fuptured by the falling timber. A little
more than half-pint of blood clots was
removed from the left side of the brain
cavity
The effect Of the operation was apparent
almost as soon as Mr. BraZee was restored
from the influence of anaesthetics. He
has already regained memory and power
of speech and the use of his entire right
side, and is making rapid progress toward
recovery.
