that the wordrobe was such as had

Tailors testifying as experts de-

DOCTOR MOVED MANS BRAIN
Delicate Operation Performed at Bal
timore Probably Will Save
Sight of an Ohio Citizen.

Baltimore-An operation that prob
ably never has been equaled in deli
cacy or skill has been performed by
DIR. Harvey Cushing, brain specialist
of the Johns Hopkins Hospital, in
which a portion of the minor brain,
known as the pituitary, was showed
aside and replaced after a quantity OF
foreign fluid had been removed. The
patient, operated on last week, is on
the road to recovery. He is Harry
Edmonson of Columbus, o.
An X-ray photograph revealed the
fluid and to this foreign liquid failing
eyesight and drowsy periods were at
tributed. The fluid could not be drain
ed before first drilling a tiny hole just
behind the left ear, leading to the cav
ity. Then, before the fluid could be
drawn off, the pituitary had to be re-
moved or directed to one side, for it
blocked the flow. To loosen the little
ball would be fatal to the patient but
at last the nerves were moved to one
side, drawing the small body after
them and leaving an opening for the
liquid to escape.

AER0PLANE TURNS TURTLE
Latest Aerial Tragedy Over the Fair
Grounds At North Yakima, Wash
ngton-Parmale Was Proteee
Of Wilbur Wright.

North Yakima, Wash.-With a smile
and a wave of his hand to the thou
sands who watched him in his aero
plane, Philip O. Parmalee took the air
in the teeth of a gusty wind here.
Three minutes later his broken and
EieIess body was dragged from be-
meath the Wreckage of his biplane in
an apple orchard in the lower end OF
the Mckee Valley, two miles from his
starting point The exact cause of
his plunge to death probably never
will be known.
As he rose from before the grand
stand at the fair grounds, Parmalee
swung to the west over the Yakima
river. He rose to a height of about
400 feet and his speed increased to
almost a mile a minute, although it
was noticed that his plane dipped and
rolled and seemed to be controlled
with difficulty.
When he had gone about two miles
from the fair grounds he swung in a
wide circle to the eastward for the re-
turn journey.
As he squared away before the wind
the great plane checked its course
huttered d second like a wounded bird
and then plunged below the line Of
Trees.
1t is thought by Parmalee's mech
anicians that a surren gust from
one OF the draws or small canyons
that notch the sides of the valley
struck the machine and rendered the
elevating planes unmanageable.
The body of the aviator was drag
ged from beneath the wreckage of the
machine by farmers who were work
ing in the orchard. His skull was
fractured and he must have died in
