Creston, March 2.-One Of the most
delicate and difficult surgical opera
tons known in the realms of surgery,
was performed here upon the weeks
old child of Mr.. and Mrs. Stephen
Roberts of Mt. Etna, at one of the
hospitals in this place.
The operation is known in medical
parlance, as spina- bifida. The child
was born with small portion of the
spinal column missing, and from this
the spinal cord had oozed, forming a
tumor as large as a hens egg and
would soon have caused death. By re-
moving the tumor portion, and forcing
the spinal cord back, and then making
an incision in the bones each side of
the affected part, and pressing the
bones together, a sort of bridge was
formed which is expected will per-
manently unite the spinal column. and
stop the discharge. The child rallied
from the operation, and at present is
doing we'll. A few years ago, this oper-
alton was considered impossible and
even now many of the cases treate

TALK RECEIVERS PURSE.
Lecture of Sunday School Teache
Leads to Return of Money.

Lecture OF sunday SCnoOl edCner
Leads to Return Of Money.
Waterloo, March You may not
believe this story, but it's as true as
gospel.
On Feb. "a Miss Nora Hasalmann.
of Nashue, was in Waterloo to shop.
She spent most Of the day in this city,
during which she visited many stores.
When she returned to her home she
discovered her purse was missing, but
she had no idea where it had been
dropped.
Sunday Miss Hasalmann's little
brother attended Sunday school in
Nashua His teacher took for his text
Honesty" and during the course OF
the lecture cited an example of HON
esty that he had witnessed in Water
loo. He told the students how he had
seen a man in the Illinois Central
waiting room pick up a woman's purse
and turn it over to the ticket agent.
The lecture impressed the little
Hasalnann boy very much. and with
out knowing of his sisters loss. re-
peated the instance of Waterloo hon.
esty to his relatives.
Tuesd%J morning Miss Hasalmann
arrived in Waterloo and identified the
purse as her own. 1t contained $3.50
and the contents was intact.
1t pays to go to Sunday school, says
Passenger Agent Fred Austin, and the
assertion is warmly seconded by
Ticket Agent Will Wertenbruch, who
was familiar with the incident

the average per- cent of attendance in
the rural schools of the state. Professor
Riggs also has statistics to show that
the districts which are about sixteen
square miles are most efficient and get
best results.
Professor Riggs in discussing the
consolidated school question, makes it
plain that this has nothing to do with
the general program of school reforms
the educational people desire. There is
all the law now that is needed for con-
solidation of schools in Iowa and it is
not proposed to add anything with a
view to encouraging or forcing addi-
tional consolidation.
Prof. William Charles Wallace, of the
University of Nebras ska, whose article
in the current issue of Harper's Mag
azine on his great discovery of the
exact location of Shakespeare's theater
IN London has attracted much atten-
ton, was formerly teacher in the
normal school at Shenandoah, and
Deputy State Superintendent Bennett
secured his normal training under
Wallace. Mr.. Bennett recalls Professor
Wallace chiefly for his righteous in
dignation at April / pranks played by
the classes which caused loss of one
day in the classes.

Iowa City, March 2.-Burch, the bear
mascot of the University of Iowa ath
ietic teams has disappeared. Uncle
JiIamie'' Berry's statement that Burch
was alternating and not dead has been
found 10 be true for when the ice suf-
ficiently melted enough TO open the
gates TO Iowa field it was discovered
that bruin had torn away the wire
netting to his home under the bleach
ers.
Last evening reports came from Cor
alleville that tracks of large animal
had been found near that village which
is three miles west of Iowa City and
a likely point for hruin TO travel TO af-
ter escaping. one farmer stated that
his chickens had been badly disturbed
the night before and it is believed that
the warm weather caused the Iowa
mascot to HE himself away out of his
cage across the ice to the Coralleville
read.
1t is probable that today search par
ties will start out TO find the mascot.
