FOUND NEEDLE IN KICK.
Entered Hand and Travelled Through
Body in Ten Weeks.

Philadelphia Inquirer.
Ten weeks after Mi;s Maggie
Shields, 35 years old, RAJ: large
needle into her hand while washing
sfme clothes, and after h.., hand had
swollen to such proporsicr that four
doctors told her that aEputation was
inevitable, the needle was removed
from the woman's neck by Dr. .Ionn
Fl. McCreary, Of 116 North Fiftieth
street.
DR.. McCreary considers the case to
~bc one Of the most unique Of its kind
in the history Of medica! science. de-
spite the fact that the needle gradu-
ally worked itself up through her arm
and body to the neck, where ~ was
found, an abscess formed on Miss
Shields hand which was so serious
that the hand at one time was swollen
to three times it's natural size.
The accident happened in the early
part Of June. Miss Shields was rub
bing the clothes vigorously against
the washboard in tub. Suddenly
she felt a piercing pain and dropped
the Washing crying, ''I have run a
needle into my hand!''
The wound bled very little, but
while Miss Shields was on her way to
a doctor to have the needle removed
her hand commenced to swell. When
the doctor probed for the needle he
could not find it. He told Miss
Shields, she says, that she had made
a mistake-that she had stuck he1
hand with the needle, but that it was
not in her body.
Satisfied with explanation, she re

RUDOLPH EABENICHT
IS ATHLETIC PRODIGY.
Columbia Boy Gains Fresh Honors at
Harvard-Several Offers Made
Him.
Columbia State.

Columbia State.
Rudolph Habenicht is "born"
gymnast and athlete. Judging from
the high order of his work at the
Harvard Summer School of Physical
Culture recently, this Columbia boy
will soon develop into "phenom.
"Rudy,'' as he is known at New
berry college, where he has held the
position Of phyisacl instructor for
the past session, took his first years
work at TIE Harvard physical culture
school for physical directors this sum-
mer. The final exhibition took place
last week. Four hundred and fifty
atheletic Instructors, representing 39
- f.. took part in the drills. There
were two "fancy' exhibitions given,
which required unusual skill. Four Of
the best men of the entire squad were
selected for each Of the two events.
Rudolph Habenieht was selected for
both events, being the only instructor
who took part in both exhibitions,
and one Of the seven chest out Of
$50 men. Among the others who took
part in the two special exhib; lions
were physical directors Of Pennsyl-
vania, Tufts and other colleges of
equal note. The men were veterans,
being above 80 years Of age and more
than several years as instructors,
while the Columbia boy is only 19.
And then this was his first year at
the Harvard school.
It has also been learned that since
attending Harvard the Young Colum-
bian has been offered the position Of
physical instructor in four leading
schools, each institution having an at
tendance Of more than 900.
Habenicht got his training here at
the Y. NJ. C. A. and at his own private
gymnasium at his home on Taylor
street. He has been practically his
own tutor. Those who attended the
exhibitions given by the local Young
Mems Christian association in the
Columbia theatre a few years back
will no doubt recall the skilful exhibi-
tions Of this athlete. His fancy bag
punching is said to have never been
equalled in this part Of the country,
while his horizontal bar and tumbling
work is Of the very highest order.
Through and through he is an "Al"
gymnasium man. He attracted con-
siderable attention at Newberry col
1ege. where he was instructor while a
student there.
Habenicht is very modest young
man, and no doubt if he knew this
article were going to be written about
him he would say: ''Please dom -
He never sees anything remarkable
about his skilful work, and generally
says that "anybody can do it if he
tries.' Habenicht is fine specimen
of the effects Of physical culture He
has absolute control Of his muscles,
and those who have seen the young
man in action declare that Chicago
Sandow has "nothing on the local
boy.
Mr.. Habenicht will in all probabil-
ity remain at Harvard the next ses-
sion, taking an academic course in
addition to his studies in physical
culture.

to the force of obvious SANDER, though for time
it may intensity the saffron hue that clouds the
transactions of the agents of the hierarchy
If the representatives of the Salt Lake governing
body conduct themselves after the manner of reput-
able citizens, there will be no trouble at Wallace
beyond the permissible exchange of verbal arguments.
The many times reiterated statement that there
will be trouble suggests, the only explanation that
the party organization devise that the church
faction is preparing the public mind for demon
stration violent than the one induged in
at Twin Falls preparing for it with the intention of
placing the blame for its contemplated acts upon
the orderly members of the regular organization.
Returns from the several counties of Idaho make
it certainty that the hierarchy will be outnumbered
the floor of the Wallace convention and if any
physical violence is there induged in, it will be in
sttuted by the minority, composed of the employees
of the hierarchy and their dupes.
The statements that have been put forth in rela-
ton to the belligerency of Mr. Day and Mr. Donnely
merely concoctions of the fanatica1 imagination
of the moral malefactors who represent an assault
on law and decency in Idaho. The convention at
Wallace will be orderly one unless it is made dis
orderly by those in pursuit of the contingent fee to
out of the tithing house at Salt Lake

All Concessions Rejected.

Three of the important northern counties of Idaho
-Latah, Idaho and Bonner-have elected consti-
tutional democrats delegates to the state demo-
cratic convention that is to at Wallace next
Tuesday The position taken by these three coun-
ties will give the state convention to the law abiding
representatives of the democratic party beyond per-
adventure
After one more defeat, it is not known what the
employees of the Salt Lake dictators will do They
have made open threats of another bolt and the nom-
nation of church ticket. Such course would
subject them to further chagrin, for they would
thus concentrate the full American vote on the
regular democratic state ticket while the Mormon
vote would go to the regular Mormon ticket to be
nominated by the Mormonized republican state con-
vention
Enough has been offered the Jack-Mormon con-
tingent by the democratic organization in the way
of concessions to satisfy any combination that was
disposed to be fair But all advances have been re-
jected, though this is presidential year, and
the circumstances lead to the inevitable conclusion
that nothing but the full pound of flesh and the
christian blood that would be shed in the cutting
would fill the of the hierarchy demand
1t all goes to prove that the reasons ad-
vanced by the opponents of the constitution for the
course they have taken fictitious. They want
to win for the church, regardless of constitution,
law individual preferment of party harmony
Why do they want to win for the church? One
possessed of good business head figure it out.

Looking for Trouble.

With assembling for the good name of
Idaho, the Boise Statesman fears while yet not
tain that it has read the signs Alright that the demo-
cracy of Mr. Dubois contemplates physical assault
upon certain contumacous who are to knock at
the door of the state convention at Wallace
The Statesman dissembles in this, for it has no
fears beyond those it cares to cultivate in injecting
confusion into the ranks of democracy. In this it is
sly and insinuatng assistant of the Jacl-M Mormon
bureau of Boise, lending responsibility and standing
the group of characterless maconents which sows
dissension that it may attain the substantial rewards
of the church
Giving currency to the unwholesome untruth that
violence at Wallace is contemplated adds nothing

at1ves of the interests many of whom have bought
their way into congress-
President Roosevelt has given the public to
derstand, through authorized statement by his
secretary, that he "wou1d regard it as gross mis-
carriage of justice, if, through any technicates of
any kind, the defendant escaped the punishment
which would unquestionaby have been meted out to
any weaker defendant who had been guilty of any
such offense"
The president has been charged with lack of vene-
ration for the judicial branch of the government
which he presdes, and he will be more strongly
suspected than before after inferentia1ly charging
high federal court with dispensing kind of justice
for the strong and another kind for the weak
That all of the strong are not to be gathered
under the wing of the federal court of appeals may
be concluded from the reply by Judge Grosscup when
asked to define the powers of the president of the
United States in relation to a new trial of the
Standard Oil case. He said: ",They are simply those
of any defeated litigant-no more no less" Is it
to be understood that there any contempt for
critical executive in this judicial classification of the
government?
The disastrous failure of the government in its
attempt to visit punishment for an established ofense
the worlds wealthiest corporation will after it
is fully comprehended have profound effect on the
voting population of the United States for it as
SuIcS UlelH TelentleSS monopoly is strongly
trenched in both the judicial and legislative branches
of the government
Until Mr.. Roosevelt came upon the scene it was
we'll cared for in the executive department and he
has not long to stay Would Mr. Taft, iudcialy
trained, nterpose himself between congress and the
courts and the people? This will be the thought
suggested to the voter
1t will be remembered that the Standard Oil COM
pany has become rich beyond all precedent and pro-
poronaely powerful, through long Indulgence in the
crime for which Judge Lands imposed the utmost
penalty under the laws of the country for the first
time visiting justice upon defiant monopoly
1t will be remembered that the exutant trust has
grown rich and powerful through practices that have
made other corporations and individuals poor and
weak and that of protection has been
opened to those whom it has despoiled and is yet
to despoi1
The American people have case against mono
postic aggression and methods of government
and they the jury.

Only Ten Days More.

When the stores closed last night there
remained only ten more shopping days
before Christmas, ten days of about four
teen hours each. ten short, crowded days
for the transaction of the necessary bust
ness of Christmas, one hundred and forty
hours! That is very short shrift for the
belated shopper. He will find the stores
crowded with thousands who, like him
self, have postponed the shopping trips
until the last few days. The wiser ones
of these rearguard buyers will shop early
in the morning and Immediately after
dinner If there are enough of these wise
ones the early-morning and after-dinner
hours will become the crowded times OF
the day. But that will leave room in the
who cannot choose their time but must
shop when they can.
II the admonition to shop early had been
generally needed there would now be no
problem The clerks would be- able to
attend to the wants of all corners without
haste or friction or misunderstanding
Unfortunately, the habit of postponement
is strong. Early birds are exceptional
even in these hustling times, and 1T Is
hard to persuade people that their own
welfare demands q change. Probably the
shopping season of 1925 will show an i'm
provement in this respect. Meanwhile
those who saw the common sense of the
advice to shop early this year are enjoy
ing a sense of work well done III good
time and counting up the advantages they
have enjoyed in the form of better serv-
ice, less annoyance. prompt deliveries and
more satisfactory selections.

\ Berlin correspondent sends this to

THE truth is the kaiser has turned over
q new leaf and is living the life of po-
litical recluse. Those who know his great
love of change, his delight in travelling

ony of a commonplace existence. realize
how great personal sacrifice is involved
in this self-effaccment. He has Cancelled
a long list of public and private engage
ments TO carry out his resolve to remain
in the background.
His automobile. which, when he was
residing at Potsdam, was seen almost
daily in Berlin is no longer visible. In
stead of hunting, travelling and INDUCING
in OF her varied pursuits he works steadily
