FUNGUS IN STOMACH KILLS.
Grows from Pinhead to Cocoanut Size,
Causing Agony to Girl.

London, Eng.-Sprouting from a
grain of oats or barley, fungus
caused the death of girl Is years old
in Sheffield, and an autopsy revealed
that the fungus had grown in the stom-
ach to the size of cocoanut. The
growth had sent out roots, which had
invaded all the surrounding organs,
and the girl died in agony.
The case is held to be one of the
strangest in medical records in this
country. About month ago the girl
complained of pains in her stomach,
and Il dozen physicians differed in
their diagnoses. AS it turned out, I'LL
were wrong. The girl gradually grew
worse, each day adding to her suffer
ing until she died. The autopsy was
performed and four doctors testified
to what was found.
The doctors said that when a grain
of oats or barley was eaten a tiny
vegetable parasite, known as ray fun
gus, was growing on it. This para
site was not killed by being eaten. In
stead, it thrived and grew until, the
size of cocoanut. it killed the girl.

group. 1t took about two months
for him to get over the wonder of
splendid sunsets. In time he got used
to the sunsets and beside this in
evitable daily phenomenon there are
but the sunrise and the flood and ebb
tide to fall back on. His duties were
largely joke. There was nobody to
talk to but natives and even when
Reid got to understand their lingo he
was not much better off.
The worst thing was the fact that
the world was always half year
ahead of him. His newspapers and
letters were six months old when he
got them. He wrote that the one
thing that was keeping up his spirits
was the prospect of seeing the Ameri-
can battle-ship fleet sail past. He
waited in vain for this pageant. The
delay in mails had put him in the
awkward fix Of writing to friends who
had been months in the grave. He
called himself the loneliest man in the
world and this loneliness soon became
a disease. He was sick of the spar
monotonous sunshine and soft trade
winds. What he wanted was real
Canadian snowstorm and somebody to
talk to.
After a while Reid spent his days
in hammock when he was not eat
ing and drinking. He ended 1t by
shooting himself, first writing caus'
tic letter to his firm telling them that

anywhere near normal man can be

Man Carries His Lea Home.

Wilkesbarre, Pa.-Carrying his am
putated leg in his arm, John Ortkuski,
who had it cut off on the Lehigh Val
ley railroad, crawled a quarter of a
mile in an effort to reach White
Haven. He was discovered by rail-
readers. Ortkuski was thrown under
the wheels Of a freight train while
trying to jump aboard, and his left leg
was cut off at the knee. He bound the
stump in his shirt and stopped the
bleeding, and then, carrying the am
putated leg in his arms, crawled on.
His remarkable courage and strength
took the breath of the physicians.
They believe he will recover.

success and crcditablc standing. Accor-
ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup Of Figs
and Elixir of SIENNA is the only remedy Of
known value, but one Of many reasons
why it is the best of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it clcanses,
swcetcns and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any facilitating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time to time.
1t acts pleasantly and naturally and
truly as q laxative, and its component

SPRINGFIELD IS
STIRRED TO FURY
ACCIDENTAL SHOOTING OF A
WITNESS ROUsES RAGE.
TRUTH LEARNED IN TIME
Grand Jury Returns Ten Indictments
AGAINST a Man and Woman
as Leaders of the
Mob.

Springfield. Ill.,, Aug. 21.-Spring-
field was inflamed Thursday night by
report that Rolla Keys, 17-year-old
grand jury when that body indicted
George Richardson for an alleged as
sault upon Mrs. Mabel Hallam, had
been shot by friends of the accused
negro.
Before the rumor had time to spread
far, however, it was learned that the
shooting was accidental, the wound
having been inflicted by bullet from
d revolver belonging to a companion
OF Keys. The boy is so seriously in
jured that he may not recover.
Two Mob Leaders Indicted.
Ten indictments against two of the
alleged mob leaders were returned by
the special grand jury Of Sangamon
county late Thursday. Six of these
are against Abraham Raymor and four
are against Kate Howard. Raymor is
charged with murder, four cases Of
malicious mischief and one of riot.
The charges against the Howard wom-
identical with those against Raymor
on these counts.
The murder charge against Ray
NOR is based on his alleged participa-
ton in the lynching of William Don
nigan, the S0-year-old negro who fell
a victim to the mob's fury on Satur-
day night. Considerable of the evil
dence upon which this was voted was
secured by military court of inquiry
which has been sitting under the di.
rection of Lieut.. Col. Chipperfield of
the First cavalry, and which turned
over to the states attorney the result
of it's investigations.
