WANT IMPROVEMENTS
Made on the Court House and Jail
in the Second District.

The board Of supervisors were en-
tertained this morning by repre-
sentative citizens who desired to in
tervlew them in regard to court
house matters.
Mr.. Conner was the chief spokes-
man. He stated that as a court house
and Jail were to be erected in the LIST
district a $4,000 or $4,000 building
ought to be erected.
He also contended for similar APP
preparation tor the enlargement and
undermining of the court house and
jail for the End districts. He sug-
gested that $4,000 of county bonds
be issued for this purpose to be
equally divided between the two
districts.
About forty or fifty leading men
composed the delegation. It re-
mains to be seen what the result will
be; but the board treated them with
great consideration and courteously
listened to their representations.

LORENZ'S METHODS ARE
WATCHED WITH INTEREST

His Hip Disease Experiments
May Possibly Obvinte the
Use of Il knife.

The graduation of DR.. Lorenz, and his
delayed depa or account of the rush
of work, brings before the public again
his method of curing hip disease without
the knife.
Dr. LorenZ is making a specially of
mis- method, which is not new to the
medical world, but which he is irving to
perfect The new surgery is yet in its
infancy. and can only be used in congen-
tai dislocation. but DR.. Lorenz thinks that
the time may come when small instru-
mont and the hypodermic syringe will be
the only instrument used by surgeons
The doctors throughout tho country are
watching his experiments with interest.
The method is simply process Of tearing
away by main force the ligaments ana
muscles which hold the deformed liml,
IN the wrong position ard holding it in
The right position until it SO grows instead
of making an incision with a small knife
End cutting these same ligaments and
muscles. The question is. which is the
better method In Lorenz's method MANY
tissues may be lacerated which have M
connection with the deformed limb, and
II is possible that d large blood vessel
may be torn away, thus bringing about Sc
iious trouble, but it all happens under the
skin and cannot be seen
The average person has a dread of a
knife, ard would undergo anything rather

method be perfected it would possibly SIM.

UPSHUR SCORNS SPERRY
AND HIS MEDICINE THEORY.
Prominent Richmond Phys:cian
Rakcs the ObcrIin Lecturer for
His Astounding Statement
as to Efficacy of Drugs.


DR.. John n Upshur delivered lecture
last Saturday night before the faculty
and students of the University College OF
Medicine in which he made some scathing
remarks about Dir. Lyman Beecher Sper
ry who during a lecture at the Academy
of Music Sunday before last made the
statement that go per cent. OF the medi-
cineS used were worthless and frequently
harmful
Dr. Upshur's lecture was on The
Ethics Of Medicine" and was considered
one of the finest ever heard at the Uni
versity College. His reference to DR..
Sperry was more or less incidental but
it was none the less to the point.
For the past week.. said DR.. Upshur,
Il have been the seat of internal turmoil.
Within a few days there has come into
this city a man, claiming to be a regular
practitioner who before a gathering of
representative citizens of Richmond, had
the auda city to make the astounding
statement that SO per cent. Of all the
medicine used in this country is not only
useless. but actually harmful. | wish to
contradict the statement of the learned
gentlemen and make few others IN the
same connection.
Dr. Upshur then went on to refer in de-
tail to the assertions of DR.. Sperry, whom
he scored at every point He declared 1t
to be unfortunate in the extreme that Dr.
Lyman Beecher Sperry should come here
at this time and make such an impression
upon the minds of young medical students
whose opinions are just being formed. He
had seen by the papers that one or two
of these students who happened to hear
Dr. Sperry had become somewhat dis
couraged and he didn't blame them. 1t
was enough to discourage anybody.
In proceeding DR.. Upshur said he adj
mitted the worthlessness of some medi-
cines but the 80 per cent. is entirely
out of the question
And who is DR. Lyman Beecher Sperry
who comes here to tell us these thinGs?'
continued DR.. Upshur in effect. Il have
gone to the trouble to hunt him up. He
is from Oberlin, O., and claims to be still
a practitioner. ! have read that he ira
wells the better part of the year lecturing
and spends the remainder "ecuperatins.
Oberlin is a wonderful place if it can
support such physician give him q
good practice and allow him to lecture
nine months and spend the other thre.
recuperating. I find further that he is
put down as a graduate of the University
of Michigan. The University of Michigan
has turned out some great men, but |
must say have never before run across
quite so remarkable a one as DR.. Lyman
Beecher Sperry.
