PEARLS OF THE WABASH.
Hunters of the Gems Make Good Pay
and Sometimes Strike
Prize

On the banks of the Wabash
river a new industry has sprung
up since that stream was sung to
death on the vaudeville stage and
played to extinction by res
taurant Orchestras. 1t is that
of "pearling," and has en-
listed in the work hundreds of
men and women and boys and
girls who search for the fresh wa
ter pearls, or "slugs," as they are
known in the trade; that is, pearls
in their rough state.
1t is not uncommon for the pearl
hunters to earn So a day, and thus
far this work has been so profit
able that farmers along the river
are complaining of a lack of
Glands" to harvest their crops.
Naturally, most of the pearls
found are small ones, but some
have been found that weighed 200
grains each, and it is the hope of
picking up one or more of these
big slugs that keeps the pearl
ers" at work. The slugs are sold
to local dealers, who resell them
to dealers in Maiden lane. One
of the merchants on that street
has thousands of the Wabash riv-
er pearls in stock.

BALTIMORE RAT is BROWN.
Rodents of That City Have Turned
Color-Reason for This
Change.

"Why have rats in Baltimore
turned from the familiar gray to
seal brOwn?" asks the Baltimore
Sun.
This is the question which is per-
picking rat catcher who has
been in the rat business for many
years. He says:
Il have been catching rats for
more than 20 years in Baltimore.
After the big fire | observed that
some few caught in different parts
of the city were of a seal brown
color. The seal brown rat was
rarity before the fire, but now
they Outnumber the old, familiar
gray ones. In a building in which
| was employed lately so per cent.
of the rodents caught were brown.
These rats are not in any one To-
cality, but in all parts of the city.
"The fur of the seal brown rat
is long and much finer and softer
than that of the gray. The big
fire may have had something to
do with the change of color and
texture, but l cannot explain why.
| only blame it on the fire because
| can think of no other cause. /

of the brown rats. The skin is very

stretch it, when released it will

A CONDUCTORS REVENGE.
Street Car Man Caused Lots Of Iucon-
venience for Passenger with
q $40 Bill.

"Ain't you got anything small.
er?' demanded the conductor, az
he hung onto the car with his toes,
and scowled at the bill, He spoke
through a mouthful of transfer
slips, relates the Dallas News.
Smallest I've got" said the
passenger, lying cheerfully.
"Don't you give me all nickels."
The conductor sided along the
footboard with speed, and with
the motion of crab, and sat upon
the back rail Of the ear. He had
stuffed the bill in his pocket. The
passenger looked overh his shoulder
suspiciously After a few blocks
he began to get uneasy, and three
blocks farther on he also sidled
along the foOtbOard.
where's my changer" he de-
manded. The conductor eyed him
coldly.
"What changer" he made an
swer.
"Why, gave you $40 bill
away back there" said the passen-
ger, vaguely, "and / want my
change. | get off at the next cor
ner." Here the conductor saw
Il woman trying to stop the car by
pulling on the cash register cord,
and hurriedly stopped the car.
He walked along to assist her,
while the man who owned the $40
bill lOped along behind him, say
ing things.
"What was that about a $40
billw inquired the conductor.
after the car had been started.
The man hoped up and down in
a frenzy.
"Here, YOU" he shouted, "I'm
past my corner now. Gimme nv
change, or that bill. / want to
get Off" The car whizzed past the
next corner.
Gimme my bill and stop the
car" holed the passenger. The
conductor took roll of bills from
his pocket, looked it over calmly,
and then took a handful of small
bills out of his breeches
pocket and carefully and pains
takingly counted out 1895, which
the passenger grabbed and leaped
from the car.

conductor, 81 seen him look at a
lot of small change before he GIN

LORENZO CURE
outdone by a Physician Who Fixes {
Double DiSlocation


Double Dislocation.
For the first time In the seven years
OF her life Marjorie Doyle, daughter
OF W. III. Doyle, of this city, rompcd
around with her companions. She
danced over the grass, jumped over
small distractions, just to sec how i.
feels 10 use her limbs, AMI ncighbors
who behcld her thought that modern
miracle had been performed. But to
the several surgeons who also watched
the little girl the case had far more
important interest, for 1t marked the
first cure Of congcnital tlislocation of
both hips ever recorded in the history
of surgery.
Dslocation of one hip has been
cured frequently, notably by Prof Lur.
cnz, but it was due to the ingenuity of
an American surgeon that the marvel
Gus cure OF Marjoric's ailmcnt was CT
fcctcd.
The surgeon who made it possible
for the little girl to romp about after
years spent in struggling along on
CRIPPLED limbs is DIR. Bradford, of Bos.
ton, known throughout the medical
profession. DR.. Bradford has not the
strength of Prof. Iorcnz. and when he,
some Of the visiting surgeons OF the
Children's hospital in Boston, took
charge of the case, he realized that he
would have TO find means other than
the use of his hands to put the disloca-
ted hips back to their normal position.
This was Is months ago, and after
much experimenting he devised an ap-
paratus Of straps and braces with
which TO do the work of operating. At
the first operation one OF the dislocat-
MI I, it,e- I,,,t
sisted all the efforts of the surgeon
II was found that the hip had been
forced back six inches and that an
osseous growth had formed over the
socket of the ball and socket joint and
that the cup had been filed entirely
with foreign substance. A radically
new instrument was devised by DR..
Bradford and the bone cupped out
again. After thorough reforming OF
the periosteum the ball of the joint
was set in place.
The girls legs were them incascd in
heavy plaster casts, and after remain
Ing for several weeks in the hospital
she was sent home. From time To time
these casts were removed and others
put in their stead. Several days ago
1t was decided to permit the girl to
walk. AT first she could only drag. her
self about. but little by little she re-
gained the use of her limbs. and now
for the first time she is permitted out
side the house.
