CHICAGO, October 24.-With the
larger part of his brain removed nv an
operation John DAILY, an emplOye of
Armour & Co., is at the Provldent Hos
pital, Thirty-siXth and Dearborn
streets, not only with fair prospects Of
recovery, but with his mental faculties
entirely unimpaired.
DAILY, who lives at 5214 Morgan street
was working on the fourth floor Of one
of the Armour buildings in the stock
yards October 10. A fellow employe
threw a rivet to Daily, who, in reaching
for it, lost his balance and fell to the
ground fracturing his skull. He was
taken to the hospital in a patrol wagon,
where as his brain protruded, it was
thought he would die. An operation was
performed, removing a large part of the
cerebellum.
There is no doubt about Days re-
covery." said DR.. H. d. Anders II, who
performed the operation. "He has been
growing better every day. He walks
about the hospital, laughing and jok-
ing and with apparently as much intel
ligence as ever. He seems able to think
consistently and to be in no wav Of
fected because part OF his brain IS
gone. The case is one OF medical in
terest and is most unusual"

Enlisted Strength of Army to Be
Reduced.


WASHINGTON, October PA gen.
eral order was issued to the Army to-
day announcing that by direction of the
President the organization of the en-
listed strength of the Army under the
reorganization act of February 2 1901,
shall be reduced to $685. the minimum
authorized by law.
Under this order the various divisions
of the Army will be reorganized as fol-
lows: Infantry companies, So; coast
artillery 109 field artillery batteries,
100; two seige batteries, 100 each; cav
airy troops, 60; engineer companies, 1O4,
except that at the service schools at
Fort Leavenworth and Fort Riley the
cavalry troops are allowed So enlisted

A man talks about owning his business.
But, as matter of fact his business owns
him. His " hole life is regulated by the de-
mands of the business. The time at which
he rises, his breakfast hour. the time given
to meals, ARE all determined by business
obligations. He rushes through lunch be-
cause he cant spare the time from

Equa!;ze Railroads.

Wednesday afternoon the state board
raised the assessment of railroads $1,000
a mile on the main line, making the as
sessment through the state $500 on the
main line. The branches were not
changed, as the state board did not de-
sire to discourage the building of
branches through the state. Represent
atives of the railroads made eloquent ar
guments against an increase in valuation,
arguing that in many cases lands and
stocks of goods and merchandise were
not assessed for more than 10 or 20 per
cen of their value and that the railroads
should be assessed ratably with other
property. On the other hand Governor
White, in insisting upon an increase, and
the other members of the board held
that the earning capacity of the roads
had greatly increased and the increase
should be made on the main line.

Up.to-date Beds aad Bedding.

A selection of beds and the detail of
their equipment, says the D%elineator for
is one of the most important
items of modern house furnishing. The
provision of comfort in the sleeping
would perhaps receive more at
tention if one realized that fully one
third Of a lifetime is spent there. In the
course of three-score years fully twenty,
even with only moderate sleeping, are
passed in bed. White iron bedsteads
are so generally used now that they may
be found even in the tenement districts,
where their neat. simple construction
means wen more than in the homes Of
more %pretention and wealth, While the
adornment Of the bed is Of moment, the
foundations of comfort depend on the
choice of mattresses and springs. Here
the quality should be of the best that
can be afforded. A first expense in good
] materials is likely TO be the last.
