Stylish Organ Grinders.

Much amusement was afforded the
residents of Logan square the other
evening by the actions Of couple OF
gentlemen who were evidently exhil
arated from taking too much liquid
refreshment The men were enactine
the parts of Italian street musicians
Both men, who were attired in Prince
Albert coats and wore shining sill,
hats, made a laughable sight as they
pushed large hurdygurdy clear
around the square. stopping in front
of dozen houses en- route.
While one man ground out music
the other passed his silk hat for a
collection. The donations were
liberal, too; even the poorest-clothed
workingman, seated on a bench in
the square, tossed in copper for
the -'two swells what got broke and
had to take to the streets for a liv
ing"
An officer, who evidently knew the
two men, finally persuaded them to &c
home, and the instrument was return
ed to the waiting Italian, from whom
the had hired it.
Just as the two men had turned tc
go away they met II poor. lame old
woman, whom they stopped and made
wait while one of the men emptied his
collection of nickels and pennies from
his hat into the surprised woman's
apron. Both men politely bowed to
the woman as she stood pouring out
thanks and blessings, and then the,
went their way arm in arm.-Phila

CASE OF LocoMoToR-ATAxlA.
An Arkansas Man Who Was Long a
FuzzIe to Physicians.


Speaking of the curious cases
which drift into the Office OF the spec
ialist for diagnosis and treatment, -
said well-known physician, reminds
me of case which was reported to
medical society in one Of the larger
southern cities few years ago by a
nerve specialist, and up to that time
1t was the first case OF the kind re-
ported, in so far as the cause of the
ailment was concerned. The patient
had spent several years in the swamps
Of Arkansas. He was in the timber
business and had been engaged in
floating logs out into the st. Francis
river, at some point below the swamp
lands. He could scarcely walk when
he shambled into the Office Of the
specialist, according to the report
made of the case, and showed every
indication of some spinal complaint
which interfered with the movements
of his limbs. There was a jerkiness
about his gait, a disturbance of loco
motion, which was thoroughly charac-
teristic of loconotor-ataxia
The specialist soon exhausted such
inquiries rs would tend to develop the
cause of the trouble under ordinary
circumstances, and discovered that
there was absolutely nothing in the
history of the case which would ex-
plain its origin On ordinary grounds.
A careful physical examination was
made. Nothing was found which would
explain the disturbance noticeable in
movement of his limbs. The special
ist became much interested in the
case, because of the evident novelty
Of the cause, and he concluded that
he would make the closets possible
study of it. 1t was certainly a case
of locomotor-ataxia. There could be
no question about this. He announced
his diagnosis, but continued his in
quiry for the purpose of finding the
cause of the complaint. In his report
of the case he said he had been re-
warded for his pains. and he ably de-
Tended the position he had assumed
on the question.
The history of the patient showed
that he had spent several years in the
swamps of Arkansas, and that he bad
spent much of that time in the wa
ter, wading around, and swimming
at times when he could not wade. Here
the specialist found the only possible
explanation Of the effect observable
in his patients movements. The pa
tient had practically lived in the wa
ter in all kinds of weather. The spe-
cialist, in reporting the case, advanc-
ed the theory that this continued ex-
posure, this continued living and
working in the water, was responsible
for the mans condition. Water, in
other words, had produced that condi-
ton which he had diagnosed as
well-defned case of locomotor-a ataxia,
and as far as my experience Goes, it
was the first case on record up to that
time, and the profession accepted it
as unique and distinctive in its way"

The attention of parents is hereby
called to the new regulation relative
to the admission of beginners in the
lowest primary class of the public
schools.
| Heretofore children were required to
be six years of age before entering
school. The new plan will allow chill
dren to enter school in the fall, if they
are to become six on or before Feb. 1,
1904. That is, those children who
would enter in the spring are allowed
and encouraged to enter this fall. This
arrangement has such decided advan-
tages that it is hoped parents will heart
lily and promptly cooperate Teachers
will have the same set OF pupils through
out the year, and the school will not be
interfered with by an extra class COM
ing in at the spring to divide the time
and attention of the teacher with those
who began in the fall. In other words
the teacher will have two sets of reci-
tations instead of three under the old
plan.
The point for parents to remember is
that there will be but one beginning
class during the year and, therefore.
they should send their children this
fall, il they wish them to enter during
this coming school year; otherwise
they would have to wait till one wear
| from this fall.
This plan of admitting beginners but
once year, if understood, will work
no hardship on those who would enter
in Feb. 1904, because all such pupils
are allowed to enter this fall and not
wait until they are six years DID, They
will thus get the benefit of a whole
years schooling instead of part under
the former plan.
Parents are required to fill out and
sign an application blank and send it
at once to the superintendent so that
provision may be made for the proper
accommodation of all beginners.
