 When the doctor opened his office yes- terday morning he found thirty persons in his waiting room. and the sidewalk and steps leading to his house literally jam med with people. who were willing and anxious to part with their right ear for q consideration.
 In all Dr. Nelden examined more than three hundred persons yesterday. but of this number two only were selected as de- slrable subjects. and one of these will be chosen for the operation.
 All sorts and conditions of men present. ed themselves. and not few came from the region of the Bowery. Most of these were dismissed summarily. One cohdl- tion of the offer was that the subject must H1ve perfectly healthy body.
