Boys ARM TO Be TAKEN OFF
FATHER PROTESTS AGAINST
PROPOSED AMPUTATIoN.
Chicago Judge Signs Order for Sur
gical Operation Which Gan
creme Renders Necessary.

CHICAGO, September 1s.-While Joseph
Bulanda stormed at the doors of the
county hospital last night vainly seeking
admission to protect his son from the
surgeons knife. Judge Tuthill Of the iuve-
nile court was consoling the boy and en-
deavoring to have him consent to the
operation which is expected to save his
life. Bulanda has said that he would
rather the boy die than to allow his arm
to be amputated. The surgeons will am
putate the gangrene-affected arm today.
Judge Tuthill signed a formal order for
the amputation On the recommendation
of Drs. J. B. Colwell and George c.
ANDERSON after consultation with four
other staff physicians at the institution
The judge personally delivered the order
to Warden Happel after examining the
fractured arm. Then he had long chat
with the boy, advising him of the dan
gerous condition of the affected arm. But
the boy remained Obdurate and related
the same stories his father tells about
miraculous cures made in the old country.
Bulanda did not learn OF the proposed
court order until late In the day when
he and several of his friends rushed to
the Juvenile court building, but did not
arrive there until Judge Tuthill had de-
parted.
The father said he had engaged a faith
healer who guaranteed to save the boys
arm as we'll as his life. The warden was
told that $4,000 damage suits would be
started against him and all persons TAX
ing part in the operation, but he did not
heed the threat
1T is simply case of ignorance against
science" said Warden Happel The arm
will come off despite Bulanda's threats.
The boys life is at stake and the opera
ton is the only thing that will save It,"

Deaths From Scarlet Fever.


Now that smallpox. thanks TO compul-
sorry vaccination. has become a rarity in
civilized communities, scarlet fever steps
forward a the worst of the eruptive dis
eases of childhood. 1t is a malady of
enormous antiquity. Thucydides. writing
nearly five hundred years before the be-
ginning of our era. called ii a heritage
from the remote past. 1t has scourged
the white races in all ages and all coun-
tries. and the physicians of all schools
have leveled their. heaviest artillery upon
1t. Yet it remains q puzzle unsolved and
an enemy unconquered even today. We
are in doubt as to its cause, and there Is
no drug or antitoXin that will cure it,
But despite all this the death rate from
scarlet fever is steadily decliiing, and
we may expect it to decline more and
more as the years go by. The reason for
this, l take 1t. lies in the fact that the
modern doctor is a great deal more spar
ing with pills ard powders than his prede-
cessOr. and a grea, ceal more lavish with
water, air and antiseptics. In the old
days it was customary to dose scarlet
fever patients with all sorts of violent
remedies In staggering quantities. and as
q result many Of them died. Today medi-
cines are but minor auxiliaries In the
sickroom, and both doctor and nurse de-
vote their main energies to preventing

BY the death of the Earl OF Rose the
small band of peers in the house of lords
whose scientific attainments have won
them recognition in the world Of science
from which in the last few months Lord
Kelvin and Lord Blythswood have disap-
peared-is further depleted. Perhaps the
most versatile scientist of those still re-
naming in the upper house is Lord Ave
bury, no less celebrated as a geolosist
and archeologist than as a botanist. Phy-
sizes is worthily represented by the Earl
of Berkeley and Lord Rayleigh (tbe only
senior wraneler among the peers) and
astronomy by the Earl of Crawford, who
is also an ardent naturalist. The Duke
of northumberland. president OF the
Royal Institution, has strong scientific
hent, and entomology owes much to Lord
Walsingham. who presented his collection
of Acknowledgements largest in the
world-to the British Museum in 1901

antiseptic surgery, who is in his eighty
second year. Is the honored doyen Of the
