ROUSING BRAIN POWER
OF A DEFECTIVE CHILD
Remarkable Operation on Head
of Baby Three Weeks Old

An operation in surgery performed
in Brooklyn with the aim of preserv-
ing the life of microcepha1ous infant
has had gratifying results. The child
appeared TO have no brain power
whatever Even the instinct of nour-
ishment was lacking and 1t would have
starved to death without murmur had
not nutriment been artificially fur
nished.
The patient three weeks old. was
etherized. Then the operating surgeon
made an incision in the scalp and
drilled an oriffce in the skull large
enough to permit the use of forceps
and with these the surgeon made tri-
angular excisions In locating the nor
NAL soft spots and their connective
lanes.
Even the surgeons, accustomed to
operations were impressed by the
crunching sound that the forceps made
going through the bone, for it was as
though the cutting was being made in
the hardened skull of an adult.
The child has recovered from the Sc
we're operation, however, and has been
taken home And it appears to be~in
the way of normal development. both

told.--Indlanapolis News.

Little Rock, April 28. - The pie was distributed yester- day according to the plans pre- pared by the party leaders at conference held Monday night Ihere was not a single crack in the slate though some attempts vii. be made later tO smash the rccOmmenda tiOnS made by the committee.e As has been pre- dpcted all along, Judge John I. Worthington for years register of the land office at Harrison and an unsuccessful candidate for governor many times, was endOrs ed Tor District Attorney in the Western District, succeeding Jas k. Barnes, deceased He secured 57 votes to the 30 votes secured by Frank A. Ioumans his oppON ent This was done after an ef- Tort to have the committeeman in the district select the candi- date to be endorsed had failed. The packers of Youmans will not stop at the committee endorse ment Of Warrington out will go direct to Washington with an eX- ceptiOnally strong following and demand the appointment of You mans over the endorsement of Warrington, the Powell Calyton candidate. They will urge Woth- ington has not the legal Qualifi- cations of the position. Frank A Youmans. of Fort Smith, the die- feated candidate, was allowed the privilege Of speaking before the committee and even his op- ponents stated it was the most logica! argument they had, ever listened to.
 In the afternoon session Harry II. Myers was endorsed as super intendent Of the United States re- servation in Hot Springs. The pol it!cal head of Martin A. Eisee of Hot Springs fell as a sacrifice in the political differences which arose between William G. Whip pie and, Harry II. Myers over the appointment of district attorney for the Eastern Dictrict of Ar kansas. Harry Myers had the fol- lowing in the committee, but at Washington Whipple was the fav- orite. Myers was offered a re- appointment as register of the land office, a position he has he'd for many years but there was Guy w. CarOn editor of the State Republican hard worker and re- cent candidate for Congress in this district who had to be cared for and had been promised the land registership. 1t was then decided to send Myers to Hot Springs where a palatial residence is added to a good salary with nothing tu do.
 One of the peculiar things a. bout the committee meeting yes terday was the split which came when Capt. F, w, Tucker, the chairman cast his vote for F. A, YOumans for district attorney.
