OPERATOR AT virgin
WAS ATTACKED
|. c. Roe Robbed and Left
for Dead

Macon, Ga, February Between 5
and o'clock Monday night, Mr. c. l..
Roe, the telegraph operator at Vir-
gin, on the Southern railroad, sew
eral miles from Macon, was knocked
in the head by an unknown white
man and negro and robbed of a gold
watch valued at $35 and about 81 in
cash. After committing their crime
the robbers placed the white signal
board at the station, so that no trains
would stop there during the night.
Mr.. Roe discovered his watch lying
on the ground near the depot the next
morning, where it had been dropped
by the robbers in their haste to make
their escape.
Operators on the line between At
lanta and Macon made repeated efforts
to get the operator at Virgin over the
wires, but failed to do so. The crew
of a freight stopped at Virgin Tuesday
morning about o'clock to investigate
why the operator failed to respond TO
the calls for him, and to their horror
and amazement they discovered on en-
tering the depot, Mr. Roe lying on the
foor of the telegraph office in an ul-
conscious condition and profusely COW
cred with blood. A physician in an
automobile was hastily summoned
from Macon and the injuries of the
wounded man were dressed. Virgin
is five miles from Macon, the first stop
on the Southern.

TRiNSPLANTED BONES
WILL REALLY GROW
DIR. John H. Gleason Describes How
Such Operations Succeed.

New York, Feb. DIR. John H.
Gleason, of Manchester, n H., has
summarized in the International Jour
mar of Surgery the result of trans
planted bones or sections or bone in
human beings. He says there is now
a general agreement as to the death
of the Implanted bone Then it re-
ceives a new blood supply and is pen
etrated by new granular tissues.
by this means new canals are form
ed in the bone and these, the so-called
canals, are lined with new
osteoblasts, the seed" of new bone.
The old bone is absorbed and new
bone forms in concentric layers around
the new vessals. These changes, he
declares, depend solely on the regen-
erative power of the transplanted pc
riosteum and marrow.
