IA NIGHT OF HORROR"

Subject of Rev. George S. Avery's Ad-
 dress at Foy Auditorium.
 The regular Sunday afternoon mass meeting for men held every Sunday i'll Foy auditorium was we'll attended yes- terday afternoon and the address of the speaker we'll repaid the audience for attending. The speaker was Rev. George s. Avery, manager of the Chris tan Temperance home at Mt. Vernon, N. Y.
 The meeting opened with the usual song service, after which the sixty-hrst psalm was read responsively Rev. Dr. Milton F. Phillips leading. This was followed by solo by Miss Ruby Street, who sang Calvary"
 Mir Avery took for his subject "A Night of Horror" He traced the his \ tory of the world as shown in the Bible and showed how each and every calam- ity that had befallen city or an indi- yidual had come about as stated in the Bible. He used aas an illustration the fatelof Adams, the New York gambling king, who last week was sentenced to Sing Sing for prison for year.
 MT. Avery graphically desbribed how : sLlldL Ol LllS llScS OL Illouoo1ioo OA young men had come before the magis- trate expecting at the most but rep- rimand; how he had been sentenced to Jail, led from the Tombs prison chain ed to a common convict, taken in the van to the station with load of blear eyed criminals and was yesterday spending his first Sunday in prison.
 The handwriting on the wall, said MT. Avery, had appeared and Adams had gone to his doom and just reward. That same handwriting, said he, shows plainly sooner, or later, for each and every man. The night of horror comes ultimately for each and every one, and the man that thinks he can wink at shining is but deceiving himself.
 MT. Avary's address was most i'm pressive one and at the close several young men signified that they would try to adopt different course before it was too late.

HEBREW MASS MEETING.

Yesterday afternoon was held in the synagogue on Factory street very large meeting. Its purpose was to raise funds in aid of the suffering and perse- cuted Jews of Russia. The condition of these people is too pitiful to need repeti- tion in these columns. An earnest ap- peal was made by Rabbi Frommer in which the situation of the Jews was clearly drawn. The answer to the ap- peal was spontaneous, many making their contributions on the spot. A sub- scription book has been opened and all desiring to aid in this meritorious pro- ject may address Rabbi Frommer at the synagogue on Factory street.

NARROWLY AvERTED RUNAwA,

NARROWLY INVERTED RUNAWAY.
 What might have been serious ac- cident was but narrowly averted yes- terday afternoon. A young couple were driving particularly lusty young two year-old colt through Temple street. At Elm street the harness broke and the young man got out to repair it. The horse whirled and started due south. The young lady yanked madly at the ferocious, maddened, fiery, untamed steed and succeeded in lessening his speed, so that the perspiring yonug man who was taking the hurdles in the rear managed to get a half Nelson on the hind end os the buggy. He climbed over and the two of. them finally brought things to a standstill. They refused to give their names.

SALT SOLUTION ON HEART
REEVES FLOOD VICTIM.
Doctor Chambers Performs What He
Considers n Remarkable Operation
to Save John Mullcn's Life.

An operation in which a normal salt So
luton was applied directly on the surface
of the heart. was performed Sunday after
noon by Doctor Joseph e. Chambers of No.
9ls Pine street upon John Mellon, Jr. 16
Years old, of No. 1862 Kennerly avenue.
He is now on the road to recovery.
Young Mellon lived in Madison, ILL.,. at the
time of the recent flood. When the food
started he was sick in bed. and when his
family We're compelled to move he was
brought to st. Louis.
He contracted liberated pleurisy, which
caused pus TO form. in the chest cavity
around the heart and lungs His case be-
came so serious that 1t was with difficulty
that he breathed on account of the pres
sure on the lungs.
Doctor. Chambers performed the opera
ton. assisted by Doctor L. a. Shay of No.
formed ct the boys home, No. 1862 Kenner-
ly avenue. Doctor Chambers said of the
operation:
The boy was in a very serious condition
at the time of the operation. He could
scarcely breathe and his heart beat very
slow on account of the pressure on that
organ.
Il made an incision on the left side about
three inches long and removed a section
OF the eighth rib. About two quarts OF
pure pus was drained from the boys side.
At the time he was under the influence of
chloroform, and his heart was beating very
slowly. could not work on him more than
nan q minute at tlilie on account OF the
strong pressure on the heart and lungs
caused by turning him on his right side.
After the pus had been removed 1
washed the entire cavity with a normal
salt solution with the aid of an irrigator.
! used about a gallon of this solution. As
soon as the solution came in contact with
the outside covering of the heart the boys
heart began to beat very strongly. although
he was under the influence of chloroform
Since the operation the boy has steadily
improved, and is now on the road to re-
covery.
This is the first time. as far as l know
and | read most of the medical journals
that a salt solution has been applied di-
rectly on the surface of the heart. This
normal salt solution consists of one pound
of common salt to four gallons of water"
