/ OPERATION
Georgia Surgeon Lays Open
His Own Face to Save
His Life

Especial Telegram to Evening Teller. }
SAVANNAH, Ga, April 19.-Dr
George NJ. Hartman, a noted surgeon
and member of the council, scratched
operation a month ago and blood pois-
oning set in. An abscess formed un-
der the right eye. He urged attending
physicians to cut into the diseased sec
ton, but they objected and be resolved
to perform the operation himself.
Weak and emaciated. Dr. Hartman in
structed his negro velet to bring certain
instruments to him. The servant then
arms before the mirror while the ope-
rations was in progress. DR.. Hartman
ran the lance from the inside of his
mouth up almost to the eye, the cheeh
was severed from the bone and an
opening made so the poison could drain
downward. Almost Immediately he felt
relief. and he has been improving ever
since.
DR.. Hartman feared the poison would
reach the cavity Immediately under the
eye He said he knew if the poison
reached the blood vessels and nerve
which communicate directly with tire
eye he could not live but few hours
The cutting did not hurt at ALL DR.
Hartman says, so great was the othe:

BONDS FOR
PHILIPPINES
Cooper Bill Provides for a Guar
antee on $5,OOO,OOO Bond
Issue for Improvements

WASHINGTON, April 19-The house
has passed on the Cooper bill for the
issuance of bonds for municipal i'm
provements in the Philippines. and
guaranteeing interest on capital to be
invested on railroad construction in
those islands.
The bill was amended so as to elm
mate the alternative proposition last
presented by Secretary Taft, that If
private capital did not seek investment
in the islands the proposed roads might
be built by the government and leased
for operation. Chairman Cooper said
that the committee believed it would
be better to first make an effort to Sc
cure the investment of private capital.
and should this not be successful, the
provision for government construction
could be resorted to through additional
legislation.
The bond provision for municipal i'm
provements limits the issue to $4,000
600 instead of $4,000, 900, as first pro-
posed. The interest to be paid on
these bonds is reduced from to Az
| per cent. The denominations of silver
certificates authorized to be issued are
limited from pesos to 500. instead of
2 to 1000. Otherwise the bill was re-
ported as heretofore given.

hurry, T. S. Winans, the manager of
the New York office of Whitehead e.

ing away at a typewriter to make up
time while the boss was out. when she
happened to look up and saw the cellu-
loid on fire in the window. She rushed
into the hall and screamed fire. The
tenants came out on that floor rushed
for the stairs and elevators, and soon
there was stampede of the tenants
out. BY this time considerable cellu-
loid was on fire in room zoos and COL
umn of dense black smoke was rolling
out of window. This attracted the
attention of crowds in Broadway and
Twenty third street and in Madison
Square. Some one turned in fire
alarm, and as the engines arrived the
crowds grew larger until Fifth avenue,
Broadway, Twenty third and Twenty
second streets were blocked and thou
sands We're crowding back into Madi-
son Square. Employees of the building
quickly put out the fire. The loss was
only $500.
