ON THE RIGHT SIDE.

Chicago, May IA man with his
heart fitting to the right side of his
body instead of his left has been
found in Chicago. James Simpson,
of 597 Warren avenue, betrayed this
popularity when DR.. U. G. Darling
turned the X ray on him at the Col
iege of Physicians and Surgeons.
The organ wac discovered to be ly-
ing horizontal in almost the came
position toward the right side of
the body it had occupied when It
began its migration from it's natur-
al location.
About ten months ago Simpson
awoke one morning feeling sluggish
and ont of spirits. He placed his
hand where he always had found
his heart before he was unable to
observe any trace of it. This fright
ened him 30 he hastened to a ply
siciau. The doctor examined him,
after laughing at the statement
that his heart had disappeared, and
told him he was suffering from con-
sumption.
Simpson began to grow worse
and finally went to the Indian Ter
ritory. 1t was while there that he
discovered his heart on the right
side, where he could feel its throb-
bings as he had done when 1t occu-
pied it's natural position. Much re.
lieved, he packed up and started
for Chicago. On arriving here he
obtained position with the Ash
land club, where he worked until a
few weeks ago.
While employed at the club he
was not i'll and seemed to suffer no
inconvenience from his displaced
heart. Severe pains about his lung
and heart last Tuesday, however,
compelled him to give up work. He
sought DIR. Darling and underwent
o careful examination. The doctor
told him he was not suffering from
consumption at all, but he had a
bad case of pleurisy. ~ found that
an effusion had formed under the
left lung" said DR.. Darling. "It
had grown to such size that 1t
pushed the heart from it's natural
resting place and forced 1t from an
upright position to a horizontal
one. The left lung had been pres
sed upward to the vicinity of the
bronical tubes, making it difficult
for him 70 breathe, and giving him
the appearance of a man who had
lust run foot race and was pant.
ing for breath. The right lung also
had been forced from lite natural
position.
DR.. Darling and the consulting
physicians decided the only way to
save the mans life was by the re.
moval of the effusion, 30 his heart
would return to a virtical position.
For this purpose Mr.. Simpson will
be taken to the West Side Hospital
today, where the operation will be
performed before the faculty and
students of the Physicians' and
Rush Medical Colleges.
The case 10 said to be unusual in
in many respects, the ability of the
man to work at all in his condition
affording the greatest surprise to
the physicians.

Clark Bell, presidel; of the New York
Medical and Legal Aid Society, has an
n0unced that his society has determined
TO take up the Maybrick case at once,
and ii = the chances are now more fav-
orable than ever for the pardon or ac-
quittal, after fair trial, of the American
woman under sentence of life imprison-
ment in England, charged with murder
ing her hrsDand by poison, The taking
UP Of the case is due TO the attitude
which the new King of England is
known to have assumed toward Mrs.
Maybrick 1t is said that he has made
it no secret that he fayors her release.
For more than ten years the Medical
and Legal Aid Society has been active
in its endeavors to secure the release
of Mrs. Maybrick, believing thaG she
was unit silly sentenced. The members
of the society have never thought that
Mrs Mayltriek would be released as long
as Queen Victoria lived, However, the
society has continued to gather evidence
to prove taat Mrs. AIaybrick was not
fairly tried and that the judge who sen
fenced her. Sir Fitz-James Stephens, was
of unsouDd mind when he tried her case.
The most important evidence in favor
of reopening of the ease or the pardon
of Mrs. Maybrick is a letter TO Mrs.
Maybrick, dated June y, 1899. from
Lord Russell Of killowen. u it Lord
Russell declares that Mrs. Maybr'~k was
never proved guilty. af
