Editor of REYNOLDS Newspaper.

Mr.. John Maddox, of the Pilsbury-
Washburn company, was in London a
short time ago and met the fearless
editor of Reynolds Newspaper. In an
interview with Mr.. Alex Scarlet, OF
this city, he describes Mr.. W. NJ.
Thompson as very active, unassuming
gentleman and one who commands the
confidence OF stranger after an inter-
change OF few words. although l
had never met him before" says Mr..
Maddox, II felt perfectly at home
while in his company. After he had
shown me some OF the sights OF Lon
don,' he invited ME to take dinner with
him at the Liberal club. After dinner
we repaired to the smoking room, where
we joined company with DR.. Cassidy,
representative from county Tipperary,
and Mr.. Brown, from county Limerick,
with whom we had very pleasant talk
about things in general. I could see
that Mr.. Thompson is a thorough
democrat and that he is in sympathy
with every movement which tends to-
wards the destruction of monarchy.
He hates shams in every form. He is
a keen debater, and he has playful
way of forcing home his arguments.
Although the position he took upon
certain question was very much op-
posed by DR.. Cassidy yet he handled
his argument so good-naturedly that
there was no sign of any anger in his
opponent. Henry VIII. was called the
defender of the faith but w. M.
Thompson can be justly called the de-
fender OF good works and he is "a thorn
in the flesh to all the high functionaries
both of church and state, who are any
way lax in their duties which they owe
to the masses. He is untiring in his eff
forts to remove every obstacle that
stands in the way of the rights of the
poor He champions the cause of the
oppressed in all the common walks of
life, exposes the abuses of men in the
army and navy, and persistently seeks
to impress upon the people, who are in
a position to Tighten the burdens of
mankind, their duty to those who are
often really unable to help themselves.
Besides attending to his practice of law
he finds time to look out for the well
fare OF what General Booth terms the
submerged tenth The interest which
he takes in the sandwich men Omen who
walk about between two sign boards
advertising) is wonderful These men
get but shilling day and could not
enjoy the luxury of a Christmas dinner,
so Mr.. Thompson calls for subscrip-
tions and provides splendid dinner for
them and musical entertainment after
wards. He brings to light the unsani-
tary condition OF the houses of the poor
working classes and scathingly criticiscs
the proper authorities for allowing a
large proportion OF the laborers' cot
tages to be below proper standard Of
what is registered for dccency and COM
fort What the London police are to
the criminal classes to keep them in
restraint, so Mr.. w. M. Thompson is to
the ruling classes to keep them some
what in the path of duty. Without his
keen, satirical criticisms, the people in
power would be great deal worse than
what they are. If democracy ever OBJ
tains a footing in England no one will
have done more to bring it about than
the fearless and energetic editor of Rey-
nolds' Newspaper"

Rt. Rev. J. ]. Glennon, the Catholic
bishop Of Kansas City, Mo, opened the
second days session OF the Democratic
convention with an invocation to Al
mighty God. In his supplication he
asked that Eve may cautiously abstain
from violating the rights of others, and
that our destiny may not be married by
pharisaism." He evidently had in
mind the benevolent assimilation
adopted by McKinley's myrmidons in
the Philippines, and the cantng hypoc-
risy about God and humanity that
c(aracterizes the speeches OF the pious
Methodist OF the White House.

And Gods revenge invoke.

o1ou ~ suDstitute fOr Skin Hr"iuoB
For Surface Wounds.
New York Special Chicago Tribune:
Medical science has discovered that
the hens egg provides an admirable
substitute for human flesh to graft on
human open wounds. The substitute
is the delicate membrane that imme-
diately lines the inside of hens egg.
The German surgeons first found that
this membrane can be successfully
used as the nucleus for granulaton Of
open wounds. The surgeons of the
Seney Hospital in Brooklyn were the
first in this country to adopt and prac-
tice the Germans discovery. Conse-
quently Edgar A. Garbut will leave the
Seney Hospital. Brooklyn, and again
take charge of his laundry. Garbut,
Sc years old now, fell from his bicycle
two years ago and so severely injured
himself that as the disease of
the bones advanced it was
necessary to remove the bones
of his left arm, his shoulder
blade, and the left end of his collar
bone While Garbut rallied, the sur
geons soon saw that the wounds left
by the operations would not heal on
the surface. Garbut's wife, his nephew
and young man in his employ Of
fered Of their cuticle to graft on Gar
butts wounds. But on December 10 the
last one of the surgeons in the Seney
Hospital remembered that the German
surgeons say that the hens egg pro-
vides a substitute for human cuticle
in such cases. So the Seney Hospital
surgeons procured some fresh eggs and
from them took the membrane that
lines the shells, and pieces of men,
brane were planted on Garbut's
wounds. Soon a new skin was formed.
The egg membrane did not form any
part of the new membrane skin, but
simply was starter" for it.
