SPIDERS OF THE ARGENTINE
Authorities to Put Telegraph
Wires Under Ground.

Spiders once caused the Argentine
republic not a little trouble. Not that
they were In any way dangerous or
destructive In themselves. The griey.
ance was simply that they would spin
webs
Anyone who has gone across the
fields on an autumn morning before
the sun has dried the grass will re-.
member how the dew sparklGd on the
spiders webs stretched across the
grass and the bushes. II was Just
this dew on the webs that caused the
trouble In the Argentine republic.
There the web spinning spiders arc
so plentiful that they have. on one oc
cation at least. completely demoral.
lied the telegraph service. They
would spin their webs across the ieIc
graph lines, and an soon as dew fell or
\ shower came up every microscopic
thread with which the wires abound.
I'd became wet and established q
minute leak The effect OF millions Of
these leaks was practically to stop
the operation OF the lines.
The government telegraph depart.
ment, especially In Bucnos Ayres. was
put to much Inconvenience. 4 Oumbnr
OF expedicnts were tried, but to no
purpose, until at last on one line as q
last resort Il was decided to connect
Buenos Ayres and Rosario by an un.
herground cable about two hundred
and fifty miles long On this impor.
tant line some years ego the effect OF
the webs was to cut down the speed OF
working from three or four hdndrcd
messages an hour To thirty.

Remove PHI, From,
Wo,,,an's Appendix

One Of the strangest finds in a
case Of appendicitis that has ever come
to the attention Of local surgeons was
that made this morning at st. Thomas
hospital, when q large pin was found
to be enclosed in the appendix removed
from Mrs. A. T. Lowery, aged 81, Of
LeGrand Surgeons who witnessed the
operation say that it is the first time
In their experiences that a pin was
found In an appendix.
Mrs. Lowery was taken Ill Of acute
appendicitis two days ago, and sur
fered intensely. DIR. E. M. Mills, her
physician, diagnosed the case as ap-
pendicitis, but to verify his diagnosis
called in consultation DR.. U. NJ. Ches-
ire, Of this city, at noon Sunday. An
induration over the appendiceal region
indicated that an abscess was already
forming. and the surgeons both advised
an Immediate operation
Mrs Lowery was placed on cot
brought to the city on the morning
train. and removed to the hospital in
an ambulance. DR.. Chesire. assisted by
Drs. N Merrill. G. NJ. Johnson and
Mills. performed the operation shortly
after the patient arrived.
The appendix was found to be great
IN enlarged and already gangrenous
and because of Its unusual size Dr
C'hesire laid it open. There. lying in
the center Of an abscess that was
forming about it, was imbedded pin.
The other surgeons we're called to Wit
ness the strange sight, and all de-
clared that while they had seen other
foreign substances In appendices. this
was the first time they had ever seen
a pin. AS far as Mr.. Lowery knows
his wife had never spoken Of swallow
ing a pin. altho further history In this
line may add 70 the interest in the case
when Mrs I.owery is able to talk.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lowery are old resi-
dents Of Lamoille. where they lived for
twenty or more years until they moved
TO LeGrand last June. Mrs. Lowery
was doing nicely this afternoon.
