GR6HT CAS6 OF A SWELLED H6HD

TACOMA, Wash, Oct 23--An ex-
traordinary case of swelled head which
is attracting attention of Tacoma doc
tors is that of Clarence Christie, who
was operated upon Monday night at
the Fannie Padder hospital. The
cause of the immense swelling on the
left side his neck is unknown, nor
can the doctors tell whether they can
effectually remove it.
Ten days ago Christie noticed a
swelling on his neck. He thought it
resulted from cold, and treated it with
fiannels and hot applications, without
result. His head grew rapidly, almost
visibly, until 1t was the size of half
bushel measure. BY Monday night it's

MINERS HIVE RETURNED TO WORK AFTER The LONG
AND Destructive STRIKE.

WILKESBARRE, Pa, Oct. 23.-Re-
ports from the entire anthracite region
show that about 81 per cent of the
mines are in operation today.
The collieries in the Lackawanna re-
gion are in better shape for working
than any of the others.
Those in the Wyoming region are
free from gas and water, but the large
mines are still hampered by water.
All the mines will be short in their
normal output today, but it is expect
ed that by tomorrow almost full out
put can be reached.
Reports coming in from all over the
region say that many engineers. pump

there is no law that authorizes depot

A jury in Judge Lewis court gave
her judgment, but the Rock IIsland
company has instructed its attorneys
in Kansas City, Kansas, to appeal the
case and spare no pains or expense in

size was so enormous that the doctors
decided upon an immediate operation
to save his life. They removed the
glands of his neck, thereby materially
reducing the swelling. Even then the
swelling was too great to permit him
the use of his eyes.
In other respects Christie is entirely
we'll and takes his case loosely, con-
sidering it's great rarity unequaled
since Alice of Wonderland fame had a
similar experience. The swelling still
persists in a somewhat lesser degree,
and the medical men are mystified re-
garding it's exact nature, though agree
ing that the trouble is of glandular
origin. Christie is telegraph oper-
ator employed by the Northern Pacific.
