CLAIMS UNIQUE RECORD.

The man who claims to be the most
patched-up person in the world is in
Cleveland searching for his long-lost
brother. George Burns is his name,
and, according to his story, he is a
walking testimonial to the ability of
the modern surgeon to patch up the
human frame The catalogue Of
Burns Affections and physical disabil-
tiles reads like a list of the casualties
in a mine disaster or a subway ex-
pIosion.
Burns says that the entire top Of his
skull IS gone, being replaced by silver
plate which is attached to his right
jaw; five ribs on the left side have
been removed, forcing his heart to the
right side of his anatomy; a portion of
his right hip is missing; one of his legs
has been fractured in three places, the
other in two; his elbow joints are a
thing of memory; he is blind in one
eye; one of his kneecaps is situated
midway down his shin, and in all 81
pieces of bone have been removed
from his body. Burns says that at
one time he was thought to have pass
ed to the great beyond. The shroud
had been prepared, the coffin was
ready, when the supposed dead man
rose to protest against the funeral
rites.
The much-disabled man was born In
Troy, N. Y, 70 years ago. He claims
to be a veteran Of the Mexican and
survivor of the civil wars. He joined
the navy schoo1ship Hartford shortly
before the outbreak of the latter con-
f1ict. He served under Farragut, and
while on an expedition down the
Mississippi river he was struck by a
shell and the entire upper portion of
his skull was shot off. For weeks he
lowered between life and death af-
ter having submitted to an operation
involving the insertion of a large sill
yer plate in his skull.
After the civil war Burns SAYS he
served on the jeanette during the
Greedy expedition. On his return he
was caught in machinery while serving
as an engineer in a plant at Charles
ton, s. G. According to Burns state
ment he was hurled around the factory
for some minutes. He was borne ten
derby to the morgue and laid away on
ice. He there regained consciousness
and informed the attendants that he
was still to be numbered among the
living.
Since that accident Burns says he
has spent "a major portion of his time
in the hospitals. Five years ago, he
declares, the doctors and experts of
Bellevue hospital, New York, gave him
up. He is going about the country
looking for his brother, who has been
missing for many years.

FINE FLOUR AND APPENDICITIS.

Changes in milling processes are re-
sponsible for appendicitis, according to
a physician who has been in the prac-
tice Of medicine for fifty years, and
who has observed the spread of the
disease. This physician, DR. Ell. G.
Howard of Champaign, III, asserts that
until the trade demand for exceeding
" white -four changed the methods of
grinding wheat there was no appendi-
citis
To prove this assertion the physician
points to the fact that where coarse
breads are used the disease is I'M
known, but that as soon as the fine
breadstuffs are introduced appendicitis
comes along as sequence. By this
reasoning it is shown that the people
of agricultural communities who secure
their flour from small mills did not
have the disease until the small mills
were crowded out by the large ones
and the white -four supplanted the
coarse. Then the negroes of the south
so long as they ate corn bread were
free from the disease, but when the
new process flour began to be used the
disease came among them. The same
results attended the departure of the
German folks from their coarse bread
to the refined -four
II can remember that prior to about
1876" said DIR Howard, there was lit
tie or none of the ailment among the
people. In twenty-five years Of prac-
tice among the people before that time
do not think I saw more than forty
cases Of appendicitis. Now they are
common.
Large and extended change in the
diet of people has contributed to this.
For example. about the date mentioned
there began to be a general change
from the old method of grinding grain
to the present method Of roller mills
and excessively fine boiling cloths.
This plan of milling began first in the
large cities, and appendicitis began to
increase first there. Later the new
process crowded out the small mills in
the country, and the people could not
get flour made by the old processes.
They bought products of the large
milling establishments, and then the
farmers began to have appendicitis.
ssStill the negroes Of the south did
not have it. but in time they began to
get away from their plain corn bread,
and they too, began to have appendi-
citis So it goes. They did not have
| appendicitis in Germany until they
began to eat our fine white flour and
4
put in the new process of milling after
our fashion Now they have appendi-
| citis in Germany, just as we do.
.ExpC rienced millers will tell you
| that the fine flour is a less desirable
-four than that made by the old pro-
cess. but the trade demands it chiefly
on account of it's whiteness. On ac-
count of its indigestibility the disar-
rangement of the digestive organs of
the people eating II has greatly in
creased. The prime cause of appendi-
citis is found in this Encouragement
"Quite small children have it. I
know one boy who has had thirteen
well defined attacks of the disease and
came out of all Of them without surgi-
/ cal operations. He changed his food
to corn bread and mush, with coarse
breads in general, vegetables, little
meat and some fruit. and he has taken
/ on flesh and has not had q symptom Of
the disease for three years. Chicago

The speculative element loosely de-
scribed as the room crowd or floor
traders" has been much referred to
of late in stock market writings, prin-
cipa1Iy because it has been very power
full in shaping the course of prices.
The s'room crowd is the essence OF
professionalism, says an exchange. 1t
is composed of spectators who have
seats on the stock exchange. and do
nothing but trade for themselves.
Some of them are interested in fuctu-
ations only. while others trade upon
basic conditions, but all are daring and
adroit else they would not long sur
vive. OF those who trade on fuctua-
tions the most illustrious examples are
Harry Well. jake Field. 'Billy'' Oil
yer and "Joe'' Manning. Each of these
operators has his outside following.
All of them are used now and then by
larger interests who desire certain
stocks to be manipulated in a certain
manner, but do not care themselves to
be identified with the conduct thereof.
But always the 'foor trader trades
for himself. Everything else is incl
dental. If he be induced to undertake
campaign for some outsider or group
of outsiders he does it because it will
facilitate his own pursui The floor
traders who operate on basic condi-
lions are more rarely heard Of. This
class is not numerous, but it is very
rich. -

If the Democrat was in the habit of
using such words as 'fudge," we would
feel like saying it two or three times
after reading the editorial in last even
ing's issue of the American. The state
ments in reference to this paper con-
tanned therein are SO ridiculous and far
from the truth that it hardly seems
worth while replying, for they will fall
of their own weight. The American
editor must not think that the people
who read Waterbury, papers are fools
They are capable Of judging for them
selves about things political as well as
other affairs. They probably know a
democratic paper from one that has
that the American agrees with us that
party organization is required to attain
success. But what kind Of an organ
ization would it be to set man up as
leader to-day who betrayed the party
yesterday? What kind of an organiza-
ton would the democrats have if they
followed the lead of the American and
went outside the franks of the party for
candidates for office? What kind of
an organization can they expect to
have when they allow republican and
mugwump papers to dictate to them?
There can be no organization under
such conditions. Look at Waterbury
and New Haven in the last election.
Two democratic cities that were ex-
pected to give Candidate Cary and the
other men on the state ticket big ma
jorities. If there was an organization
back of the democrats in these two
places things would be different In
New Haven, the largest city in the
state, there was no enthusiasm over
the ticket among the editors of the
two papers supposed to be democratic.
Editor Osborn bolted the democratic
ticket on former occasions, and he
might just as well have done so this
time for the amount of good his paper
accomplished with its half hearted sup
port. Editor Troup had the courage of
his convictions and supported only such
candidates on the ticket as he saw fit.
In this city the Democrat supported the
ticket from top to bottom, and thus the
man that talks about slashing right

advocated they are probably the ones
that need the touch Of the pruning

.SMOOT FOR SENATOR

A STRONG OPPOSITION DEVELOPS.
Anti-Mormon Fight Likely to Be One
OF the Features at Washington
When the New Cone

SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. THE big
fight that was waged in congress about
four years ago over the seating of Brig
ham Roberts in the house of represent
atives because of his Mormon religion
bids fair to be renewed and fought
with increased bitterness when the
Utah legislature names Apostle Reed
Smoot as its senatorial representative.
The present legislature Of the Nor
ZION state has been elected in the in
terest Of Apostle Smoot, and there is
little doubt that he will be named for
the senate. Already movement is un-
der way to prevent the seating Of the
apostle. The Salt Lake Ministerial as
ISOLATION is organizing to make vehe-
ment opposition to his taking place in
the upper house on the ground that
Smoot as an apostle is sworn to preach
polygamy as one of the tenets of the
Mormon church and that for that rea-
son he cannot conscientiously take the
oath to support the constitution and
laws Of the country.
Smoot has announced that no threats
Of opposition can frighten him into
withdrawing and that he will fight for
his rights to the bitter end.
The Telegram prints the following in
terview with Apostle Reed Smoot:
