Frederick Power, actor and stage man
ager at Chicago. who had his tongue cut
from his mouth In an operation for can
Ger five weeks ago, is again able to talk so
as to be understood.
The case is said by physicians to be a
remarkable triumph for surgery. All of Mr..
Powers tongue and part OF the root had
TO be removed in the operation. With his
tongue gone he is able TO articulate, utter
ing some words quite distinctly.
For several days Mr.. Power has been at
tempting TO sing and the hospital attend
ants say that while the effects were not
entirely successful they have encouraged
the patient and made him quite hopeful.
There is still some paralysis in Mr.. Pow
er's lower lip. due to the operation, and
there is heavy gold bridge in his mouth.
His Jaw is still held in heavy plaster
cast and when these impediments are re-
moved 1t is believed he will be able to
articulate fairly well.

Ferment in China.

Reports from the south and from the
Yangtse' valley region &bow the anti foreign
sentiment to be very strong. China I'M
doubleday is in a fernent of political ex-
element, but the movement is directed as
much against the government as against
the foreigners. The government is be-
tween two fires. The young China party is
clamoring because reforms are being exc
cuted too slowly, while the conservatives
and the officials, the latter seeing their
perquisites threatened, are resisting all eff
forts at reform. In spite of protests of
ministers have not changed their plarrfor
the withdrawal OF foreign troops from Chi
II province. the only exception being the
legation guards. The ministers believe that
the Chinese government is both able and
determined to protect foreigners in the
event of a revolution.
