A MEDAL FOR MISS GOAD

The movement which has been start
cd for the purpose Of presenting Miss
.Iezebel Goad. daughter of the heroic
clerk Of the Carroll County Court has
produced spontaneous response
from all sections Of the Old Dominion.
The Virginia girl displayed courage
in the deadly battle of March Ia
which should not be allowed to pass
unnoticcd.
Mrs. William lodges Mann. wife OF
tho Governor. has consented gladly
to the suggestion that she buy the
medal which is to be given to the
heroine of HillSvillc and she has an
nounced her intention to give her un-
qualified Endorsement to the move
ment.
Further commentator of the plar
is given by Governor Mann, who Of
his own accord has already written tt
Miss Goad the warmest letter of APP
probation. -
The smoke has drifted from the bat
tlefield at Hillsville, and now, on one
hand we all clearly see and keeniy
feel the shame the affair has brought

His mission was two-fold: To
revere God and to proclaim the Cos
pei TO- Man.
His appearance to His disciples
while fishing was to teach them three
things: His deep interest in their
temporal, everyday life; that He
could turn their failure into success;
and that He is able to supply every
thought and need. In short, the bas-
is of all service is personal lose of
Christ
The Great Commission to preach
and to teach is summed up in the
words now so frequently on the
tongue-evangclism, education; two
important works of the church to-
day.
The great purpose of the lncarna-
ton was to redeem the world, to re-
veal the Father, and to restore men
to communion with God. Jesus by
His death redeemed men; by His
Resurrection reconciled Man to God;
and by His Ascension, as He was re-
stored to perfect communion with
the Father, so shall we be, if we fol-
low in His steps.

Slaughter of Infants.

As will he seen by today's tcle-
graphic dispatches from London. the
strike of miners in England has re-
suited in an appalling slaughter of
infants. Conditions in that country
and i'm Scotland are of the gravest
nature. Starvation is facing thOus-
ands while evictionS are numerous
and people are pawring their house
hold utensils and burning such furnl-
turc as can be spared in order to af-
ford warmth for themselves and
little ones. Churches arc filled with
homeless persons and bread lines and
soup houses are in evidence. Thous-
andS of little ones, suffering from the
pangs of hunger, are swelling the in
fantilc myrladS Of which we are told
is the kingdom Of heaven, while the
parents arc engaged in that most dis
NAL of all occupations-keeping the
wolf from the door. In the United
Stats, where the great mass is ever
blessed in basket and store, woud-bc
political economists arc ever spring
ing issues, most Of which arc imma-
terial. People who are prone to lis
ten to those who preach tho gospel
of discomfort, should realize the fact
that we have much for which to be
thankful, when we cast our eyes ,on
the mother country which is now pass
ing through one Of the greatest cris-
Us i'm her history.

upon Virginia, and on the other hand
we appreciate in the highest degree
the martyrdom of Judge Massie, Com
monwealth's Attorney Foster and
Sheriff Webb, and the jurors who
died of their wounds, and the splen-
did courage of Clerk Goad and that
of the Virginia heroine, his noble dau-
ghter, whose name should go down in
history. Into the court house from

The words of Henry of Navarro, at
tie battle of Ivy on March II, 1890;
have been recalled: "If my standard
fail you keep my plume in sight; you
will see it in the face of glory and

Of March, 1912, and the brave noun
tain girl of Hillsvillc, heard the voice,
and into the fray she went and came

LUNGS KEPT INFLATED
SIMPLE APPARATUS THAT MAKES
HEART SURGERY POSSIBLE.
Operation Thoroughly Demonstrated
Before Kansas City cIinic-ShoWn
to Have Passed the Expert
mental Stage.

A dogs life was sacrificed at the
costes House In Kansas City TO show
Kansas City surgeons and nearly a
hundred others that heart surgery
the sewing up OF stab wounds and the
removal OF bullets-is possible. Those
present predicted after the demonstra-
ton that such practice would be COM
mon among surgeons within tiVe years:
After more than thirty years OF
work. during the entire period with
standing the bitter attacks OF the anti
yiyisectionists, DR.. F. Merrill Rlcketts'
OF Cincinnati. and the other pioneers
IN the FIELD, have perfected system Oh
administering anesthetics that makes
heart surgery possible.
DR.. Ricketts,, who gave the Gem.
onstration before the Western Surgical
association, made his frst experiment
IN 1874. Since then doctors connected
with the Rockefeller Institute IN ne"
York have pushed the Investigation
also. Hundreds OF animals have peen
sacrificed in the work. but since the
experim mental stage was passed the
lives OF "a persons already have been
saved. and yet only two or three sur
geons in the United States have learn
ed the operation.
Formerly the lungs OF persons under
an anesthetic collapsed, causing death'
when the chest was opened by SUIT
geon. The apparatus used by DR.. hlch'
etts. consisting OF little besides Del
lows and q rubber tube, keeps the
lungs inflated during the operation.
The anesthetic Is administered IN ar
forced into the lungs by the bellows
used to keep up artificial respiration.
The wonder OF the method Is 10
great extent in It's simplicity. Dr.
ricketts, in 90 minutes was able 10
demonstrate 10 the eager surgeons the
entire process OF operation on the
heart the lungs and the other oron'
chial components.
"This development In surgery mas
passed the experimental stage, Dr.
R,cketts said. ALREADY 178 opera
tions on the heart have been per-
formed, and OF these II were Success:
full, the patients recovering. This IS
wonderful percentage, considering
that death was certain otherwise IN
every case.
bullets were removed and knife
wounds sewed up. Most OF the opera
tons were performed at the RocSefel-
Ter institute. BY this method OF 40
ministerlng anesthetics the patient
NAV be kept alive for hours, permit
ting the surgeon to perform any opera
tion on the heart, the lungs or any oth'
err thoraclc organ.
"The apparatus. very simple In IT.
self and in its operation. is easily
portable and may be taken by the sur
yeon anywhere To DR.. Williams
negro. OF Chicago, belongs the cred't
Of performing the first successful OPP
Grafton on the heart as long ago as
1898. In a few years the practice Will
be common"

CRUEL MURDER RECALLED.
Thirty-Ninc Years Ago. Charles Man.
Icy Was Hung in City Jail
for Atr0ciOus
Murder.

There was an execution in the Jail
ward of this city 80 years ago today,
Charles Manlcy, colored, having paid
the extreme penalty of the law for
killing John Monroe, an elderly
Scotchman, who was an itinerant
clock mendcr. The murder was
committed July 5, 1872,
Manlcy's victim was sitting by 8
spring in the valley which extends
from St. Asaph street to Royal, in
the midst of the colored section OF
the city, known as Petersburg" The
night was sultry, and it is supposed
that Monroe, after drinking Of the
spring, lay down and finally fell
asleep. He wore plain silver
watch and carried small tin box
containing the tools used in his call
ing.
The shanty of a colored man named
Payne was but short distance from
the spring, and from there three men
-ManIey, and Samuel and Lewis
Payne-came down upon Monroe,
who was heard to cry out that he had
no money and beg them not to MUIR
der him. He was, however, beaten
most terribly, his head bruised and
his abdomen crushed with heavy
stones, and then, under the SUPPOSE
ton that he was dead, he was thrown
into a neighboring ditch, from which
he managed to crawl during the night,
and on the edge of which he was
found next morning, and carried TO
his boarding house on West street
He fingered in great pain, but in full
possession of his senses, and was
able to give an account Of the: MUIR
tcrous assault upon him; at about 8
o'clock at night he expired.
The two Paynes disappeared dur
ing the night, and have never been
heard from since, but the father-in-
law of Marley, having had his sus-
picions aroused, communicated them
TO Lieutenant of Police John l..
Smith, who came upon Manley while
lie was asleep and found upon him
the watch previously worn. by Mum
In LOT fn,tc. haf MI
boots, which articles we're identified
by Monroe before he breathed his
last. After his trial and conviction,
Manley assumed defiant attitude,
but later the ministrations of Rev.
Fields Cook and S. w. Madden
brought him under religious convic-
tions. On the scaffold the condemned
man attributed all his crimes to
whiskcy; said he had no one to blame
the Intoxicating cup alone had
brought him to the gallows. He
showed nerve similar to that OF
George Midgets, when the rope was
being placed around his neck, and
told the late James NJ. Steuart, who
was sheriff, to perform his duty as
quickly as possible.
- A negro who witnessed Manleys
execution went to Washington that
night and murdered cattle dealer
named Frank Hahn. He was later
captured in This city by the Alexan-
dria police, and taken to Washington,
where he was hanged.
