GREW IN HIS FACE.
Wheat Grain Terminated I'm Boys
Flesh and Caused TumOr.

TRENTON, n. j., April 3-Landsford
Bergen. a fve-year-old lad of Yardsley,
four miles from here. underwent a surgical
operation to-day for an ailment of the face
which puzzled the physicians. The opera
ton disclosed grain of wheat growing in
the cheek. The grain had burst open and
issued from its inner portion numerous
sprouts shooting in different directions be-
meath a tumor which formed directly over
the spot where the grain was found.
The boy complained of an itching sensa-
ton beneath the skin, which rubbing and
scratching failed TO relieve 1t was decided
by the physicians to remove the swollen
obstacle. They were astonished to find I'm
the cavity from which tumor was taken
the growing grain of wheat, with its small
roots firmly set in the flesh.
How the grain reached that place is un-
known TO both the boy and physicians, but
the lattersthink that IL entered through the
eye and worked its way down where IL had
been located. The grain was evidently the
cause of the tumor.

DULUTH MAYORALTY FIGHT.
Court Decides I'm Favor Of Incum-

DULUTH, Mimi, April S-The District
Court to-day decided that T. W. Hugo shall
remain as mayor of the city of Duluth
Judge Dibell filed his findings in the cleo
ton contest instituted by Henry Truelsell
former mayor, and he finds that Hugo was
elected by six votes. just what the face of
the returns showed on the original cam
vass. Thus after the recount and legal
fight over the admissibility of ballots,
which resulted i'm throwing out dozen
ballots, the result is unchanged and Mr..
Hugo will retain his seat. 1t is probable
that Truelsell will appeal to the Supreme
Court.

on Friday. November l6, 1900, and was
opened with scripture reading and
prayer by DR.. rockingham Tne high
school orchestra made it's debut at this
time and was very kindly received by
the large audience. We are indeed
favored to have such music furnished
by our own school.
The regular program was then taken
up and carried out. as had been pu ublish
ed, each member being present and we'll
prepared. Music from Miss Mathews
room consisted OF songs acapted to
children. and little games in connection
with them which develop the child
nature.
U. W. KepIinger, Supt. Dslta schools
started the ball rolling with an address,
The Spirit OF the School, showing
plainly that the true spirit must be the
leader, if We reach our ideal in school
work. Mrs. Layton followed with an
inspiring paper, entitled, The Ethical
side of Teaching" Mrs. Layton is the
teachers friend and helpmute, encour-
aging for better work, commending
when we'll done, and this gives her the
right to make the helpful suggestions
which are So highly appreciated.

followed with Il thoughtful paper "A Plea
For the Boys" in which he earnestly
urged the teachers who expect much OF
the boys. to encourage and strengthen
and be patient with them.

social that the teachers might become
better acquainted. Miss Minnie Jack
son was kind enough to favor US with a
solo. which was a treat to all.
Saturday morning devotional exer.
cises were conducted by Rev. Layton,
and there followed some good practical
school room work in Miss 1ngersolfs

a perfect recitation. Many teachers
present wished they might take the
class in their own rooms. Mrs. Anna

and many helpful suggestions given.
This interchange OF thought and meth
DDS by our enthusiastic teachers cannot
fail to be productive OF much good and
when We consider that thirty-six OF the
forty zone teachers now teaching in the
county. were present, we certainly feel
that we have a progressive corps OF
teachers. All things considered. this

had commenced the practice OF medicine.
While at Cape Town he visited Cecil
Rhodes residence in the suburbs of that
city. Rhodes has in his ground one Of
the finest collections OF wild animals in
the world. In describing the Rhodes
residence, DIR. Long said: 1t 10 with
out doubt the most magnificent iwelling
have ever rcen. Rhodes is considered
by the work. ng men at Cape Town as
their best friend. Whenever they have
a grievance the whole working Grass of
the city go TO the Rhodes grounds where
they are addressed by Mr.. Rhodes."
DIR. Long said that the action most
appreciated was the raising Of the
American flag in his honor by the wife
of one % the Canadian officers upon
their arrival at Montreal. DIR. Long
left Tuesday for Chicago. wbers he will
again take up the practice Of medicine.
