case of surgery which he has success

stances. IA 0s r.. -
Tho name of person who happens
to be the particular patient is Rob
ert McIver, colored, age IS, and lives
on South Cherry street, Nashvill,
Tenn. The patient has always been
in good hcalth and there ia nothing
in his fsm1ly or personal history
that has bearing on particular case.
Sunday morning about one o'clock,
April 20, 1911, the patient was shot
witt a 80 calibre revolver, and after
being shot, ran about 200 yards and
fell. He was picked up later by spec
tHtors and brought to the Wilson In
Urinary and on arriving there had a
d~eathlike appearance, pinched express
sion, dilated pupils and skin bathed
in cold p~erspeCGtion. The respiration
We're shallow and irregular. The rad
ical pulse was not palpable, but on
ausculation, the heart was found to be
beating feebly and rapidly.
DR.. Wilson at once gave about 10
miIims of adinalsn and one-fortieth
grain of ~strychnine to patient and in
q short time there was o radial pulse
and the condition of the heart much
improved.
He had sent for help to operate, but
IN the mean time called up the City
Hospital and they came end after set

fused to take him.
Finally Drs. Bandy and Elliotte ar
rived and seeing that an operation
was absolutely necessary at o7ce, Dr..

Immediately.
Upon careful examination it was
found that the ball had entered the
thorax aboIt an inch above and to
the lHf.. of the left nipple. The ball
after passing through the skin super
fetal end Geep fascia, ~pectorales ma
jor and minor muscles, entered the
pericar0ium, making a confused
wound in the left auricle of the heart,
Gbcut 2-5 of an inch long. 1t then
penetrated the pleura and lower lobe
Of the loft lung, and finally lalging in
the ~trapezius muscle on the left side
of the spine opposite the 7th dorsal
vcrtebrae.
By careful manipulation the ball
was lnally e%xtricated, two stitches
taken IN the left auricIe Of heart, all
hemorh2ges arrested, air pumped out
Of cavity and the wound closed and
dressed.

The .HypOcritlcaI Yankee.

In every city in this southland is to
be found the white man who once
lived in the north, and who choose at
certain times to style themselves
yankees; this thty especially do when
they desire to deceive a Negro and
make him believe that they are better
friends to him than is the old time
southern white man. This thing has
been practiced On the Negro for near
ly fifty years, and many Of our mis-
understandings have come ABOUT be-
aus of this habit on the part Of
these supposnI-to-be friends of the
Negro to keep alive the ill-feeling be-
tween them and the manner born
southern white man. But the Ne
groeC Of the south. are awakening to
the hypocrisy of these cunning yank-
ees, end are coming to understand
that his best friends are those people
who have lived down here all their
days and who know tint Negroes and
sympathize with them in their efforts
to climb.
This yankee hypocrisy comes up in
every form to astonish and deceive
the Negro, md despite the fact
that Re knows the land to be full
of these beguilers, they sometimes
arc entrapped in their meshes.
Tho Negroes are learning, though,
that wordc are not deeds, and that
deeds are more dependable than
words; so they are measuring men by
deeds. BY this method the Negro
an1 southern white man are getting
to understand each other better and
are showing a disposition to work
more in harmony for the good of the
deer old sunny south.

LUCKY BOY sPEcuLAroRs.

The sight of the curb market re
minds one of a small-sized though
fiercely agitated riot. However, with
all their excited and wild gesticula.
tons, gyrations and bowling, for all
the world like pack of beasts, there
is method in their madness.
The curb has brought forth an
army of boy spectators, many. of
them street urchins, in this case lit
orally being lifted out of the gutter
on to the curb. There is something
in the atmosphere of Wall street
that stirs the gambling spirit in the
young blood Thousands of small
boys are playing the market" and
having the time of their young lives
Juggling stocks on Wall street, and
their trading is almost altogether on
the curb. Most of these young gam
blers in stocks are employed in brok-
.erage and banking houses in the f.
nancial district, and the usual run
of boy spectators take their gains Or
losses quite as philosophically as the
most hardened veteran of the
street"
Only few years ago an office boy
in a large Stock Exchange house
made enough money playing the mar
ket to buy a seat on the exchange
He has since dropped out of Wall
street, and no one in the financial
district seems to know what has be-
come of him. His seat was sold a
couple of years ago. His name was
Daniel S. Peters.
TIE story of Dennis Fogarty is
now one of the traditions of "the
street." Dennis used to be a stock
runner for John w. Gates. Passing
up and down Broad street, he finally
began to take "fiiers" on the curb
with the ten-dollar notes that repre-
sented his occasional accumulations.
When he became 16 years old he
threw up his job and took his place
as a full-fedged Spectator on the
curb. He got hold of some Western
mining stocks when they were cheap,
and sold them after they had jump
ed several points, making a few
thousand dollars in about three
months. The curb then became too
slow for this lightning boy opera
tor, and he began to take a fall now
and then out of the listed securities.
With luck still smiling on him, he
made more money. When Steel Com
mon was down around fifteen, Dennis
bought heavily of it. It soon start
ed up, and kept on going up and up,
When it had reached a fairly high
point, Dennis became 81, and he
wisely celebrated his majority by

nesians. Witness the mortality fig
ures recorded by tuberculosis and
cholera and drink. The Hawaiian is
being relentlessly swept away, and
the pity of it is he has only his own
ignorance to thank for it, while his
white neighbor stands by impotent to
help. Meantime the moral stamina
of the race is threatened with deteri-
Grafton under the graft pressure of
his political status.
Now then, what to do about this
situation is the question. To assert
as some have done that The Friend
ever has advocated the withdrawal
Of the franchise from the Hawaiians
is to affirm an untruth. We have
neither advocated it nor limited at it..
In the first place such backstepping
would be impossible, and second, il
possible, it would, we believe, be I'M
wise. We would oppose this as Wig
orously as government by commits
sion. Congress made our bed for us
more than a decade ago, and we
must lie on it. The Hawaiian voter
is here to stay and to stay for some
time in the majority. in that very
fact lies peril to his manhood,
peril clearest to those who love him
best, and that means those who love
him honestly enough not to countep-
ance political control of him by graft
of any kind whatsoever.
Given then the tremendous incen-
tive unworthily to control the Hawai-
ian majority, how are his real friends
going to help him? Certainly not by
suppressing the truth or being false
to conviction on the franchise ques-
ton, Just as certainly by continuing
to stand by and with him as The
Friend has always done in fighting
every evil that menaces his man.

Independent, Hawaiian Christian
ministry, by Strengthening his
churches, by giving the very best and
widest education possible to his sons
and daughters, by backing him up in
his fight against alcohol, by seeking
to improve his industrial status, by
treating him as a brother beloved in
every helpful manner that the most
up-to-date Christian spirit can sug-
gest, in fact, by continuing to do just
what The Friend for 6S years and its
supporters and their forbears have
done since that year of grace 1920
when Puritans first landed on these
shores.
And we wan as many as possible
who are like minded to come from
the mainland to help us. Hence we
advocate earnestly a campaign to Sc
cure for Hawaii the kind of people
that have made Southern California
what it is. We need such people be-
cause they are broad minded enough
to love the Hawaiian and treat him
like a brother, because they are ami
