II WOUNDS DID NOT KILL
Remarkable Surgery Restores Young
Man-ApparentIy Hopeless
Case Conquered
Special to The Herald.


ATCHISON, Kas., Feb. 12.-After one
of the most remarkable recoveries
known to modern surgery, Jim Ryan,
who was shot in the abdomen by Jim
Crum in August, will return to work
as good a man in every way as he ever
was.
The bullet pierced Ryan's intestines
thirteen times and the mesentery in
four different wounds. The mesentery
is covering under the intestines which
holds them in place. The operation was
performed by DIR. Hubbard Linley and
occupied nearly two hours time. In
many cases an operation of this kind
results fatally, even If the patients in
testines have been perforated in only
one or two places. The seventeen
wounds in Ryan's intestines We're
Sewed together by DR.. Linley with silk
thread. Ryan eats anything he desires
and has regained norma; weight. In
surgical operations it is essential that
every instrument, the surgeons hands,
and everything that comes in contact
with the wounds be absolutely germ
less. Otherwise blood poisoning would
set in. Naturally with seventeen holes
in his intestines Ryan bled profusely.
For a time, even after the operation,
he fingered between life and death.
But now, as well as ever, he returns
to his trade. that Of a molder at Sea-
tons foundry. Ryan is only 21 years of
age and to a certain extent his young

MANY CHANGING THEIR NAMES
,Scandinavians Take Advantage of the
Wisconsin Law, Which PIeases
Postoffice Officials

SUPERIOR, Wis, Feb. IAN epi-
demic of name changing has struck
Douglas county and the register of
deeds is kept busy filing the declara-
tons. The changes are mostly among
the ScandinaVians, who have names
alike, and change them to avoid con-
fusion. That is the reason assigned by
most of those asking a change, al
though now and then one crops up
that is little out of the ordinary, as
for instance, Anton Bilonweck had his
name changed to plain Bieloh because
the first was too hard to spell, write
and pronounce.
Sometimes the whole is changed,
sometimes just the last one, and again
an initial is inserted.
The law requires that the person
wishing change of name shall merely
file his old name with the new one
wanted and the reason for changing.
In case of property owners a descrip-
tion of the property must also be filed.
The law was not generally known here
until lately the newspapers have made
mention of it and the Scandinavians
have since commenced to take ad-
vantage of it.
1t is said that the postoffice force
here will be greatly aided in their work
by the epidemic of name changing as
at present there are several hundred
such of Olsons, Petersons, Johnsons
and Andersons in the directory, and
many of these also have the same
Christian names.

PASADENA. Feb. 12.-1mportant as
is the project to make of Monk Hill
a public park Mayor Waterhouse. who
visited that site with all but one Of
the members of the city council this
afternoon, lot fall n remark of more
importance than the park project IT.
self Citizens of the north side and
other parts of the Crown city have
been circulating petitions lately urging
the council to buy Monk Hill and make
of this rather unsightly section pub
lie and beautiful park. This afternoon
all the members of the council save
ED K. Braley, accompanied by the
mayor, went to look over the ground.
While inspecting the hill Mayor Wa
terhouse said in effect: THE city Will
want this for reservoir" This can
mean but one thing and that Is that
the mayor plans to go ahead with II
municipal water scheme all of his own,
If he is reelected. 1t means that,
smarting under the refusals of the
water companies to treat further with
him after he had killed the plans
which were practically complete when
he was elected for the purchase by
the city of ali the plants he now plans
to go ahead and run a rival municipal
water system.
Mayor Waterhouse was one of the
opponents OF lne original pan TOT nlu-
nicipal water by the purchase of the
plants of the several companies. 1t
was even thought that the success of
this plan at the polls just few weeks
before the last city election spelled his
defeat, but this was found to be a
very false hope. He came into office
against the plan of buying the local
plants unless they could be forced to
sell for about half what their valuable
and prior water rights are worth and
he ended by forcing the council to
rescind all action for their purchase
even including the election at which
the people overwhelmingly voted bonds
when he originally protested.
His remark today indicates that he
has a municipal water plan all of his
own which does not include the local
companies, unless they can be forced
to sell out cheaply. Where he will get
the water is not known, unless he
hopes to make use of some of the can
yon claims recently filed on by the
city through a third party. These
claims are considered valueless by en-
gineers.

perintendent Hitchcock of the Santa Fe

attempted to secure the consent of the
city council to hold a conference over
the problem of gates and other safety
appliances at railway conferences, but
the council, grown suddenly active after
nearly two years of dilly dallying with
the problem, could not wait any longer,
and failed to accept these offers to talk
things over. Instead City Attorney
Wood read, or rather recited, what the
special committee on crossing, which
had done nothing with the question
until the accident of last week forced
a report, would recommend.
This committee will recommend that
the Santa Fe place gates at Lake ave-
nue., Los Robles avenue, Marengo ave-
nue., Madison avenue and Walnut street
and fiagmen at Union and Green
streets. The leading crossing on the
Southern Pacific and Salt Lake are
similarly to be treated The whole will

$25 for his second, now seems about TO
face a third case. City Attorney Wood

city assessor, d. D. Kellogg, has not
only assessed the fire house site on the
north side but that the property has

sold for taxes to the municipality.
There has been many a complaint
against the careless way the last assess
ment was made, but nothing quite equal
to this has before come to light.
p. c. McGregor was this afternoon
fined $15 for speeding his auto recently
on East Colorado street. He took the
matter phisophically and said that the
wonder is not so much that any are
arrested but that more are not brought
