SURGEONS SEW UP
HEART Of A MAN
Heroic Operation on a Waiter
Stabbed in Fight with Angry
Customer.
PATIENT is SLEEPING WELL
Gouverneur Hospital States It
Will Probably Be Seventh
Successful Case of
It's Kind.

An heroic operation was performed at
Gouverneur Hospital last night in des-
perate attempt to save the life of Sam
uel Harman, waiter, who was stabbed
through the heart during a fight in the
restaurant where Harman is employed.
The operation, which consisted of sew
ing up the heart, was performed by DR..
John F. Erdman, visiting surgeon of the
hospital and professor of the Post
Graduate Hospital. assisted by Dr. Rus
sell, the house surgeon, and Drs. Cheat
ham, Cox and Lee, of the house staff.
After the operation it was stated that
this would probably make the seventh
successful operation of its kind ever per-
formed, and it was due to Harman's
splendid physique and good health that
the operation was attempted. An hour
after the operation was performed the
patient was enjoying a very comfort
able sleep.
Harman is twenty-one years old and
his home is at No. ;}319 Stanton street.
Patrolman Campbell, of the Madison
street station. arrested Samuel Jasper, a
canvasser, living at Mills Hotel No. ?.
and charged him with stabbing Harman
Campbell says Jasper objected TO the
quality OF the soup with which he was
served at the restaurant al No. 169 East
Broadway and angry words were ex-
changed. Then. says Campbell, Jasper
picked UP a knife and thrust it into Har-
mans breast The point of the knife
was found 10 have penetrated the heart
for fully half an inch.
When DR.. Lee, who responded to the
ambulance call. took Harman to the
hospital. Dr. Russell. the house surgeon,
decided that an operation, if performed
Immediately, might save the injured
mans life. He telephoned to DR.. Erd-
man, whom he found at his home. No.
so West 52d street, and Dr. Erdman
agreed with him as TO the advisa biIity
OF an operation.
DR.. Russell injected 500 cubic cent?
vein of the left arm while waiting for
the surgeons to arrive. and when they
came the saline solution had brought
about the desired result The mans
heart action was strong enough to per
nit the use of anRthetics, which are
seldom used II operations of this rare
characte
An incision six inches long was made
between the ribs, next to the superficial
wound. and the periCardiurn exposed.
The critical moment of the opera ton
was at hand. The pericardium was
opened, and the blood gushed out Of the
wound in the heart as from a fountain.
Quick a fash DR.. Erdman thrust his
thumb on the wound. checking the flow
of blood. and with a deftness that almost
bafT1ed the trained eyes of the watchers
he took twelve stitches in the heart. COM
pletely sewing UP the wound.
The opinion of the physicians was that
because of the promptness of the opera
ton and Harmans splendid physical
condition he has an excellent chance to
live.

EVENING CHAT
BY RUTH CAMERON.

The lady and her husband were
houSehunting.
CHANGING to be calling at an apart
ment and to be taking my leave just as
the lady interviewed the janitor on the
front steps, I, of necessity, overheard
this scrap of conversation:
Janitor-"So you think you'll take it.
And how many are there in your fam
ily?"
The lady-'F'ive-my husband, myself
and three children
And what sort of an apartment do
you think they had been looking At?
A seven room affair in big city block
with no piazza and no yard-absolute-
ly nothing but the street for the chill
dren's playground.
Furthermore, with but seven rooms
of course there could have been no
nursery and not even a separate bed
room for those children.
Aren't you sorry for those unlucky
babies?
1 am-and for all the little ones whose
fathers and mothers do not realize that
they owe it to the lives they have
brought into the world to give them a
normal healthy place to develop.

for friend of mine. and found state
of affairs which impressed me deeply
This was it. Plenty of big, comforta-
BILE, comparatively old-fashioned houses
with ample space about them for gar
den or playground, just going abeg-
ging at low rents, while little six and
seven room apartments were being
snapped up at several dollars a month
more
OF course the apartments had tall the
modern eniences''-electric lights,
open plumbing, gas ranges, etc. On fact
in several of them the old-fashioned
stove had been completely ousted by
the gas range. I suppose it's absurdly
old-fashioned and nonprOgressive of me,

like taking the heart out of the home).
Also, of course. these apartments were
much daintier and more attractive, had
prettier wall paper, hardwood floors and
were altogether capable of being fixed
up more prettily than the big houses.
For young couples or for families of
grownups I'll admit they made most
desirable nests.
But for people with children, I think

they were impossible had almost said
criminal.
The kind of people that can't be salts
fed anywhere except in such a predi-
gested existence are the kind of peo-
pie who should not have children.
1 believe that all fathers and mothers
owe it to their children to select homes
where the children, if possible, will each
have separate bedrooms, where if pos
sible there will be big airy nursery or
indoor playroom, and where it shall
surely be possible for them to have
plenty of opportunity for outdoor life
even if some sacr fees have to be made to
find this sort of home.
When the owner of some big apart
ment house makes a rule excluding
children, the press usually gets wildly
excited over this premium upon race
suicide
Personally I think it's a mighty good
move although actuated of course by
a selfish motive.
If people with children don't have
sense enough to stay out of such places
I'm glad there is something to keep
them out
But I wish they'd have the sense OF
themselves.
