DEATH FROM PECULIAR CAUSE.

caused the. death Of Miss Stella Wes-
ton, the 14-year-old daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Erastus J. Weston, Of Des
Moines. Tuesday night last week,
says the Nashua Reporter. The case
was one that bafaed the physicians in
charge. It was evident that the girl
was suffering from some kind of
stomach trouble and all usual treat
ments failed to relieve her or save her
life. A post mortem examination was
held yesterday morning and hair
ball was found inside the stomach
Similar cases have been reported in
medical journals. but this is believed
to be the first case of this kind that as
come to the notice of the physicians of
Des Moines, and probably Of the state
The ball is the exact shape of the
stomach, and is trife over two
inches in length and almost two inches
across 1t is composed almost entire
ly Of human hair AMI was pressed
as hard as bone, in the interior, but
the outer covering is softer and the
separate hairs are plainly seen.
1t is said that the girl had a habit
of chewing her hair while asleep.
The superstition is that small parti-
Giles of hair and occasj onally long
hair was swallowed and passed into
tho stomach where they rolled into
ball. The ball had been growing for
several years and finally occupied so
much space in the stomach that the
organ could not take sufficient quan-
tity Of food nor properly digest that
which it did take, and the girl died.
The strange formation was preserved
by the physicians who removed it
from Miss Weston's stomach and it is
attracting tire attention of medical
men throughout that city.

Atlanta, Aug. 13.-Members of
the Legislature who took part in the
discussion over the judges salary bill
and State House officers express The
opinion that the prohibition with re-
gard to free railroad passes and franks
does not apply to those judges now
in commission, and who will not re-
ceive the increased salaries.
Speaker Morris, Representatives Eel
der of Bibb, Gross of McDuffie, Sena-
tor Comas, author of the bill, and Gov.
Terrell, in interviews to-day. state
they are confident 1t was never the in
tention of the General Assembly to de-
prive of passes those judges who re-
main on the present salaries.
The case of Justice Cobb of the SUI
preme Court is cited as an instance. He
will not receive the increased salary
until after Jan. 1, 1909, and those here
mentioned say they would regard it as
somewhat unfair to deprive him and
others in the same position of passes
before they secure the increased sal
aries. Notwithstanding this, the bill
clearly states that no judge of the SUI
preme or Superior Courts shall receive
or use free passes or franks for himself
or his family after the passage of this
act. The Legislatures intention was
doubtless good but it failed to put it
in the right shape. What the judges
will do in the matter has not yet de-
Veloped.

The faction opposed to Chief Ball has

Council will take up the matter on
Monday, and it is said there is a like

board necessary to impeach the chief,
which would protect him from the fac

Owing to a mistake made in an ef-

retiring. Much less Us he inclined to

Chairman Browns Reply to Letter
of Macon Board of Trade.
Macon, Aug. 1S.-The meeting of the
Transportation Committee of the Ma
con Chamber of Commerce, which was
to have been held to-day to discuss
what should be done in view of the
fact that several communications had
been addressed to the Georgia Railroad
Commission and that there has been
no reply, has been called off An an
swer was received this morning from
Hon. Pope Brown. He explained that
the delay in replying to the letters
from the Chamber of Commerce was
due to the fact that at the time the
last letter was received he was lust
taking his leave for Albany, where he
was going to inspect the depot situa-
ton.
In his letter Mr.. Brown saws: eft is
not the intention of this board to make
or to approve any rate that will dis
criminate against any city in the
state in favor of Atlanta. We are here
to prevent determinations, and If any
shall occur at any time without our
knowledge it will be our duty, as well
as our pleasure to use our best efforts
to promptly correct them when brought
to our attention"
The reply of Chairman Brown is in
terpreted by the Transportation Com
mittee to mean that in the event II
appears some unfairness has been done
Macon by the carrying out of the rec
ommendation Of the commission with
regard to Atlanta, the former will then
have the right to a hearing before the
commission.
Inasmuch as there is yet thirty days
in which the railroads will have time
to comply with the recommendation
OF the commission, the Board of Trade
will simply await developments.
