A DARING PATRIOT
Feats of a Little Known Hero of
Revolutionary Times.

Most OF the Revolutionary heroes
have been immortalized in song or
story. but there is one whose fame has
never spread. as IT should. beyond the
region OF his birth. His name was
Jack Jowett- In the little city OF
on the building that stands on the site
Of his old tavern But that simple
bronze is the only memorial of his
name and deeds.
In Revolutionary days young Jack
Iowett kept the Swan tavern in Char

when patriotism was dangerous, for
CORVALLIS was In possession Of tide

savslry We're sweeping back and forth
over the inland counties.
In June 1871. the Virginia assembly
abandoned Richmond. which Cornwall
Is threatened. and came TO sit in Char
ottesville. Among it's members were
such men as Patrick Henry, Richard
Henry Lee and Benjamin Harrison,
and the governor was no other than
Thomas Jefferson. One bright morn
ng when the state assembly was in
session Jack mounted his thoroughbred
mare and rode out to look over his
arm outside the town. As he rode
along lie caught through the trees

method employed was to write a copy
of the telegram. roll it up tightly and

Children Suffering From Rare
Disease Exhibited in 0rtho.

Two little children, Christina, aged
six, and her brother, Joseph, aged TO-
afflicted with the rare disease, osteo-
MALAYSIA, the lack of calcium in the
bones, which causes them to break
under the slightest pressure, were
presented to the surgeons attending
the Monday afternoon session OF the
Central States OTthopedic club IN the
Children's Free hospital.
The case OF these little children
an extremely pathetic tragedy of ma
ture. held the intense interest OF the
physicians for nearly one hour Ut,
w. q. Stern, OF Cleveland, presented
the case. bringing the little ones irou
his home city, and he said that me
affiction was undoubtedly due 10
congenital defect 'traceable to alco-
holism in parents or grandparents
DR.. Stern explained that the chll-
dren's bones were so fragile that ne
could break them between his thumo
and forefinger with hardly an enort.
One OF the boys legs has been frac'
tured 20 times, and his arms and the
other leg have also suffered many
fractures. They knit very readily,
however. The little girls skull Is oil
the consistency OF parchment, AND so
thin that the palpitation of the brain
can easily ba felt from without
DR.. Stern has been treating these
children for FIVE years, giving them
adrenalein, preparation for harden
ing the bones, and an Improvement is
being noted. The !, children appear
emaciated. Their parents, who at
tended the clinic, appear perfectly
healthy.
In Grace hospital, later in the af'
ternoon, DR.. F. c. Kidner, of Detroit,
exhibited an interesting case or the
fracture OF the cervical vertebrate. The
case was that of a young man recent
ly thrown from his automobile. Only
a most difficult operation saved his
life. Now he Is apparently In perfect
health. and complained because his
parents refuse as yet to allow him TO
resume dancing. DR.. III. w. Hewitt,
of Detroit, presented a case OF
a young man contracting blood pois-
oning from smashing his finger with
a hammer His arm was saved to him
by an unusually skilful operation
wherein a portion OF the elbow bones
was removed.

club were entertained at dinner, Mon
day night, by the Wayne County Med
ical society. Tuesday morning the
members were the guests Of the surgi-
