MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, June 21.-
Fifty seven varieties of nails, some
glassware and parts of a wire fence
were taken from the stomach of E.
Wallace, who was operated on at the
city hospital today. Wallace says he
is a human ostrich, and the surgeons

compelled him to go to the hospital At
first he attributed his malady to over
indulgence in doughnuts, but on second
thought he remembered that he was

company, guaranteeing to eat all the
He had done this stunt many times be-
fore, and the nails and glass had al
ways agreed with him. But his "tum-
my" began to ache, and half suspicious
of the trouble, he called at the hospital.
His condition, the physicians said, was
critical so he submitted to an immedi-
ate operation.
The physicians were prepared to find
few nails and possibly some glass.
They found a junk shop. There We're
fifty-seven good sized nails, nearly a
dozen pieces of glass and a few long
pieces of wire. Then they searched for
a giZzard with some confidence. All
the articles were removed and placed
on exhibit in the office and Wallace,
still unconscious, was wheeled back to
the ward, apparently no weaker than
at the beginning of the operation. 1t
is believed he will recover.

NOTRE DAME, Ind, June 21.-
What once was regarded as business
acuinen'' was declared Sunday by Rev.
John r. O'Connell, of Toledo, to be

In his baccaaureate sermon to the
graduating class of Notre Dame uni

'It is not so long since we stood in
awe of that latter-day Midas. whose
every touch made purest gold. The
youth of our land was made ambitious
by the tales of riches. But when some
one escaped from the tolls and asked
the surprised world to tear off the
fiimsy wells that covered our national
idol it was found that it's house Of
gold was buided on dishonesty, on
bribery, on prostitution of power, on
betrayal of trust; that the marvellous
business tact was common robbery and
the fruits of this enterprise and un-
paralleled progress were murder, sui
eide and shame"
