WIRE IN MANS HEART
A REMARKABLE OPERATION OF
PHILADELPHIA PHYSICIANS.
Negro Afflicted with Aneurlsm Of tho
Aorta-SilVer Thread is colled
Inside Organ and Then
Taken Out Again.

Philadelphia.-Nature and a silver
wire 90 feet long saved the life OF
Fred Williams at the end OF one OF
the most remarkable operations on
record.
II was for aneurism OF the aorta,
and was performed on Williams In
the MedlcoChirurglcal hospital by Dr.
James p. Mann.
Williams, who is 80 years old. a ne
gro barber and a man of wonderful
vitality, noticed a swelling on his
breast some time ago, and went to the
Medico-Chirurgica hospital. There he
was placed upon the operating table
without having been etherized. hol
low needle was plunged into the aorta
and through this the silver wire was
fed from a spool. The thickness OF
the wire was about that OF No. 60
cotton thread. As the wire was fed
into the great blood vessel II coiled
itself closely in the form OF a cylinder.
which fked exactly the inner surface
OF the affected part.
Then the needle was withdrawn and
the little wound made by II was
dressed
The process that was then set IN lr
the weakened part was this;
The blood clotted over tho wire and
organized" new wall strengthening
that which had been weakened by the
aneuritc growth,
The operation was performed two
months ago. Last week he came into
the hospital with blood trickling
steadily frcm a pin hole in his chest.
The inteTne and the nurses who saw
the trickle were alarmed and sent for
the surgeons,
Again Williams was placed upon the
operating table, The blood was found
10 be coming from a wound from
which protruded the tip OF the silver
wire that had been coiled inside his
Gorta. With infinite care the whole
strand was taken out, and then. TO the
amazement OF everybody, the bleeding
stopped.
There Is every Indication that the
barber Is now absolutely wen, and
that the new inner coating OF the
aorta is sufficiently strong TO reinforce
the weakened tissue that lies outside
s.

That Walla Walla will celebrate the

thusiastic gathering of members of the

scriptions to the amount of 1915 had

$4,000 would be necessary to observe
July fourth in the proper manner.
Soliciting committees will be imme-
diately appointed to raise the money.
Arrangements will be made early SO
that every detail of the grand ceiebra-
ton will be worked out in plenty of

WALLA WALLA IS To CELEBRATE FOURTH
WITH IMMENSE PROGRAM FOR VISITORS

were many who opposed it. After
considering the question fro mall sides,
a unanimous decision was reached
favoring the plan.
From the business mans point of
view the merchant derives more benefit
from a celebration than any other cit
itizen. 1t had been argued before the
meeting that the property owners
should be asked to help defray the ex-
penses. After submitting the question
this was deemed inadvisable.
In deciding that $4,000 would be the
minimum fund with which to celebrate,
plans were laid for the most careful
expenditure of the amount, at the same
time securing the best possible results.
A motion prevailed instructing Presi-
dent Kaser to appoint a committee
composed Of five representative busl-
ness men to solicit funds with which to
finance the project
What will be one of the most inter-
es+ing features of the celebration is the
street parade. Many automobiles which

will be in the city to take part in the
racing will enter the parade in the
morning. With the numerous musical
organizations from the surrounding
towns to take part in the band con-
test in the parade, the beautiful and
attractive floats from the business
houses and other special features which
are being planned, the street pageant
will precent grand spectacle.
Instead of the athletic events which
are characteristic of the smaller towns
being pulled off in the streets where
the hot sun glares on the pavement
these events will probably be given on
the Whitman grounds.
Special facilities for transporting the
large crowds to the city will be ar
ranged. The traction company will have
additional trains on it's interurban
lines while special trains will be ar
ranged for on both the railroads lead
ing into the city. Indications point to
the largest gathering which the city
has ever held.

LACK OF CANS STOPS PACK
Canning Companies Are Put Out Of
Business Temporarily

ASTORIA. May 10.-For the lack of
cans the Union Packing company of
Tacoma will be unable to operate its
salmon cannery at Bristol bay this sea-
SON. This condition of affairs was
brought about by the inability of the
railroads to transport tin plate from
the factories in the east.
The concern had only tin enough for
-. 900 cases left from the pack last
year and could not purchase a supply
in time to dispatch a vessel for the
Northern waters.
The Northern Alaska Salmon COM
pany of San Francisco had material for
So. 900 cases and offered to buy the
supply which the Tacoma company had
on hand. This offer was accepted
whe, it was found by the local people
that they would be unable to enter the
field. They had the consolation at
least. of making a neat profit on their
tin plate. With the $4,000 cases the
San Francisco company will be able TO
secure it's average pack. The plants of
the two companies are near together.
Last wear the Union Packing COM
pany chartered the schooner, Susie Nj.
Plummer, for the season and she
brought down a good catch from the
north. This year, however. the COM
pany will have no use for vessel and
has made no fixture.
The salmon fleet is practically all
enroute north at present. The vessels
sailed during the early and middle
part of April and should reach their
destinati between May 10 and June
/. according to the date at which the
ice goes out of the bays.
