SOMETHING NEW IN SURGERY.
An Operation That was Deserve
ing Of Worldwide Gel
ebrity.

ct see,'' said the old man Pimpcrnel the
other evening, relates the Cleveland Plain
Dealer, that they've mended another brok-
en- neck for a teller. He had a fall some
where's out in the country, an when they
got him to tn hospital tn doctors found
that his upper spinal coiume was cracked
clean across Feller couldn't hold his head
up, an his voice was clean gone.
How did they patch him up?" inquired
John Bowman.
You'll be s'prised when 1 tell you,'' re-
piled the old man. 1T was so dead easy.
Fust, they crowded over tn left phalanx till
1t Tapped the right vertrickle, an then they
stuck tn two ends together with anty- toxum
glue. That's fer blood pisenin', you know
Then they got the broken ends of the me
duila together an fastened 'em in place with
strips of adhesin' plaster. After that they
nailed narrow rods O. zinc up and down his
backbone and clinched 'em together with
rivits. When this was all fixed the surgeon
sent out an got an old-fashioned bootjack,
an they tied it on his chest so that the open
in at the top would just catch under his
Gilman hold it until the glue hardens. An
as soon as it does harden the young feller'll
be just as sound as ever, with few rivits
thrown in.
''Thunder!'' cried Josh Bowman. "Ain't
it wonderful"
''You jest bet it is" said the old man.

A HUMANE BULLET.
Which VIII Do Away with the
Usual Fright9uI LacerntiOns.

DIR. Robert NJ. Mul.ings, of Norwalk,
Conn, has invented what he believes
to be the most humane bullet yet Of
fered for use in civilized warfare. He
asserts it will do away with thesfright-
full Iaceraticrs about which so much
has been written since the United
States engaged Ii war with Spain.
The bullet is l. lot unlike an ordinary
bullet except that it has an opening,
which he calls q canal, practically all
the way through it. This opening, he
maintains, will prevent the explosion
of projectile air after the bullet has
entered the body, and also will prevent
the entrance of sir into the wound.
The new bul3et has steel tube, ex-
tending from the tip to the butt, so
fastened at each end as not to weaken
the bullet or give it an opportunity
to explode. At che back of the bullet.
against the opening into the tube, is
an aluminium SEad, to prevent the es-
cape of the ga& generated by the pow
der. As soon as the bullet leaves the
she'll this aluminium wad detacAes
itself, leaving the tube open.

ROAST BEEF WAS TOO DEAR.
a Chicago woman Who Has q.
Grievance for the Econ

Young Mrs. Woodlawn, who lives on
Prairie avenue, has not been housekeeping
very long, but she is versed in household
economy. She is prize member of the study
class in that subject at the Woman's club,
says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
Every housekeeper- should DO her own
marketing says Mrs Woodlawn, and every
morning a t. nine O'clock she starts out to con-
tribute to the -gayety of grocers and meat
shop men on Cottage Grove avenue. Once
she ordered LEG of veal for two, an an
other time she purchased trout on the half
shell" few days ago she undertook to
negotiate for small roast of beef.
Eighteen cents pound, ma'am," said
the butcher.
Aren't you rather high?" remarked Mrs
Woodlawn, tentatively.
No, indeed, ma am; steers like this meat
comes from, ma'am, is sellin' for six dollars
on the hoof."
Mrs. Woodlawn gathered up her pocket
book and her parasol decidedly.
L shall lay this matter before the Social
Economies club" she said. IF cattle are
worth only six dollars apiece and you sell
me roast beef at Is cents pound, we are
in the clutches of a monopoly, and 1 viii eat
trout as long as 1 live before I'll stand it.

in Shanghai have been preparing the

consul generals message, it is under

press reports from Shanghai, but the
state department has come to place
a high estimate on Mr. Goodnow's
advices. Therefore, the state depart
ment, which has all along been hope
full of the ultimate rescue of the min
listers at Pellin, has now joined Euro
pean cEancellories in the belief that
they have all been killed. The Chi

When Mrs Russell Sage went home,
after a shopping tour, the other day,
she pulled the bell at her front door,
