His Tears Had Been Shed,

President Hadley of Yale is apt in
story telling, and all his tales have
an application that those for whom
they are intended cannot fail to per.
ceive. At a reception given for him
by an old friend some 500 miles from
New Haven one individual with a
better memory than tact asked him
what he thought of the recent base
ball game. AS Yale had met with a
disastrous defeat, the subject might
be called unpleasant. Without hesta-
tion President Hadley said: There
was a boy who lived in a village whose
uncle died. The next day a man
driving along the road was surprised
to find the boy working in a field.
Thinking this did not show proper re-
spect for the dead uncle, he called
the lad to him and said, Johnny, didn't
you know your uncle was dead?' John
ny slowly approached and drawled
out: Yes, know it-I have cried "

WoMAN'S BITE KILLS SURGEON
Dies of Blood Poisoning After Saving
Would-Be Suicide.

London, England.-Dr. Angus Bew-
ley Wilson, aged 80, house surgeon
at the London Hospital, is another Of
the many martyrs OF science.
DR.. Wilson was performing an
operation on woman suffering from
laudanum poison, the result of an at
tempt to commit suicide, and in her
struggles she bit one of his thumbs.
The operation was entirely success
full in the case OF the woman, whose
life was saved, but in the case of the
doctor blood poisoning set in from
the bitten thumb, and DR.. Wilson died.
At the inquest concerning DR.. Will
sons death another surgeon said that
it was necessary to gag the woman
while the operation was in progress.
She struggled all the time, and, seiz-
ing DR.. Wilson's thumb between her
teeth, bit it.
The Coroner said that DR.. Wilson
lost his life owing to woman whose
existence was certainly not worth it,
from the public point of view, she hav-
ing attempted suicide on several oc-
casions.
"a great deal is heard" added the
Coroner, "of doctors fees, but little
is heard of their generous sacrifices y
The jury returned verdict of death
from misadventure.

friend, "for my part, l think Henry
is very bright and capable. I'm sure
