Doctor Was Here on Business.

Mr. and Mrs. Armour were present
at the operation, which was accom-
plished in a few moments and without
anaesthetics. Every one was filed with
rejoicing; even an old servant wept
with delight at the news. Then the
family and the great surgeon gathered
at a luncheon which was turned into
an impromptu festival of cOngratula-
tion. DIR. Lorenz arrived in Chicago
and after brief stop at the Audi
torium went directly to the Armour
home. Here little time was wasted in
greetings, so impatient was every one
to learn the outcome of the treatment.
As Well as He Could Expect.
''The removing of the east was
accomplished without the use of

have hoped" said DIR. Lorenz at the
conclusion of the operation. The limb
which was treated is now almost of
normal length, and in few days
Lolita will be as well as any one. She
has already walked downstairs" On
his way to the operation DR.. Lorenz
spoke of his hopes.
Not Certain One Yet.
"From all reports which l have re-
ceived of little Lolita's condition, 1 am
sure that the case is progressing sue
cessfully, and l do not believe the cast
will have to be renewed, he said
However, I may have to be in con-
slant attendance upon the little one
for three or four weeks before l can be
certain of n positive cure-and even
then she may not be entirely well.
Doctor Will Go West Again.
After DIR. Lorenz' sOjourn in Chica-
go he will make q short western tour.
He does not expect to give as many
treatments while here this time as he
did last fall. II cannot refuse to aid
any one who comes to me for help
he said. ''but It should be remembered
that l am human and too much should
not be expected of my poor abilities.
I have here a large bundle of letters
from physicians which tell me that
most of my. former little patients are
running about and doing well"

it beyond any doubt. If the Manufac-
turers' association in convention at
New Orleans indorseS Mr.. Parry's un-
justified, undigested and malicious
antagonism to the effort of the work
ers to secure material and moral i'm
provement they simply write them
selves down to his low level and stand
committed with him for all the injury
which must follow from his rabid ut

resentment and retaliation.
Organized Labor Here to Stay.
''Organized labor is the result of
our Industrial development and en-
virOnment. 1T proposes to secure q
larger share of the production of
wealth. 1t seeks to secure these OBJ
jects by peaceful and lawful methods.
1t aims to establish more rightful re-
iatiOns between man and nan. Or
ganiZed labor is here to stay-yes, to
stay long after Mr.. Parry's name shall
have been forgotten. 1t has survived
many encounters with men of the Par
ry caliber. Organized labor seeks no
such conflict such as Mr.. Parry would
promote. nor will it run away from it.
We desire Industrial and social peace
and are making for it, Mr.. Parry and
those who act with him to the con-
trary Notwithstanding.
Striving for Better Life.
1--WE shall be enabled soon to discern
to what extent the manufacturers of
the United States are in accord with
him. At this writing we are confident
that he represents but an infinitesimal
part of the American employers. Or
ganiZed labor faces the future con-
fident and self-reliant, and hurls back
into the teeth of Mr.. Parry his foul
vituperation and abuse. Organized la
Dor is constantly striving for the at
tainment of a better and higher life,
the fulfillment of it's mission for the
brotherhood Of man"

IT MUST BE SERIOUSLY AMENDED
Before It Will Be Satisfactory-Re-
markable Gathering at Dublin
of NationaIists.

Dublin, April 17.-In view of a mis-
understanding in the case of certain
English papers John Redmond. chair
man, upon the reassembling of the
United Irish League convention today,
introduced strong home rule reso-
luton declaring that the Irish nation
would never be satisfied until it has
obtained full measure of seIf-gov-
ernment. The resolutions were car
ried by acclamation.
William O'Brlen then proceeded TO
explain various suggested amend
ments to the land bill and his sugges-
tions as a rule passed without divis-
ion.
Dublin, April 17.-By Il unanimous
vote the Irish national convention
which met here accepted in principle
the Irish land bill introduced in the
house of commons by Wyndham, chief
secretary for Ireland, and entrusted
to John Redmond and his party the
task of securing in the house of COM
mons that serious amendment in va
rious points of vital Importance"
which the national convention may
consider essential. The convention will
outline the shape that the amendments
should take, and Lord Dunraven, Lord
Mayo, Captain Shawe-Taylor, John
Redmond, William O'Brien and T. w.
Russell are likely to meet at Il round
table conference TO discuss the land
lord and tenants opinions on the land
bill and try to arrive at n common
basis of parliamentary action.
Features That Do Not Suit.
The proceedings at the convention
reveled discomfort with various feat
ures of the bill, but nothing so seri-
Gus as to indicate a danger of its
ultimate rejection. Even Michael Da-
witt, who had an opportunity of divid-
ing the delegates into two bitterly OPP
posing camps, and who amidst dramat-
ic excitement subordinated his own
views, pledged himself to abide by the
verdict John Redmond and William
O'Brien triumphed over all objections;
indeed, the objectors save Michael Da-
witt, were scarcely given q hearing by
the delegates.
Was q Representative Gathering.
Every available seat in the round
room of the Mansion House was taken
by the delegates, who surged up the
aisles in a solid mass and overtowed
the surrounding rooms. For six hours
without break the delegates sat or
stood listening TO the speeches of their
leaders. Not for many Il day has such
Il representative gathering been seen
in Dublin. Irish wit and eloquence
lived up to its reputation. Speaker
after speaker brought the audience to
that pitch of enthusiasm where hats
were thrown up and men stood upon
the chairs yelling with delight.

WHIPPED HER
HUSBAND.

A battle royal, one of a series that
have been occurring at inervals for
number of years past occurred this
afternoon at about the hour of two
O'Clock on second street. starting from
the Revere hou Sc and continuing un-
til the pai ties reached the vicinity Of
Main street.
1t was really not battle in the
true sense of the word, because one OF
those concerned. the husband. did
ed at him by his infuriated wife.
The participants were Mrs. Louisa
Nishwitz and William Nishwitz her
husband The former for some fame
led wrong or because of her intense
hatred for the man who claims her as
wife. statrted in to beat Mr. Nishwitz.
He made no resistance whatever. not
withstanding his spouse tore off his
necktie. his collar, his hat and port
ion of the jumper that he was wearing.
She drove him before her with the
fury of the onslaught she made upon
him. He did nothing but make a
passive resistance He did not lay
his hand upon her. He backed away
as she approached. until the two
people watched by over hundred
people had almost reached Main
taeet. No one interferred until Just
ice Byers happening along put stop
to the unholy spectacle, when the
woman concerned retired to her home.
When the contest. unequal though
it was. was over William NishwitZ.
the much battered husband said that
he would never strike the woman
whom he said was out of her mind
and not responsible. He repeated
this statement "A half dozen times and
those who saw the spectacle were
greatly inclined to believe him. :,
The attack was one that shamed
manhood and womanhood and there
was much feeling expressed and dis
played over the matter.
There was an immense crowd present
during the squabble and it is the
talk of the town this afternoon.
William Nishwitz is the proprietor
| of the Revere house and an oldtime
citizen and there are many who SYM
pathize with him in his martial
