Rib In Place Of Jawhone.
Roughly speaking. the injuries which
the writer actually saw one morning
in the clinic were about as much worse
than those reported. In photogra phs.
from bad railway accidents as these
latter were worse than face injuries
OF ordinary life. The most striking II
not the most interesting cases were
those in which all or most Of the lower
jaw had been shot away. The basis
OF repairing such mouths was the sub.
stitution OF piece of rib for the miss.
ing jawbone. Teeth were placed upon
the new jaw and In the course Of a few
weeks the patient could speak and eat
normally. There were some curious
cases In which the tongue had been
shot OF In the middle. An English
boy who had gone to the hospital IN
that condition spoke quite clearly out
OF his made-over mouth after only q
few weeks OF care.
There were many cases. too wher.
bullets had entered at the top of the
jaw on one side of the face, ciipped

PARIS, Sept. II g. The "sacred
Union" of parties, after resisting the
tribulations of year of war, and aft
er surviving the efforts of some fac
tons to disrupt it, has just weathered
another storm.
The parties Of the left in the cham
her of deputies, including the social
lists, radicals, radical-socialists and a
faction of the republican socialist par
ty repeated their attack in the form
of demand for a more comprehen-
sive supervision of the administration
of the affairs of the war department.
Thdy asked for powers similar to
those held by the committee of public
safety during the revolution-the
right to send commissions or delega-
lions into the zone of the operations
to exercise direct and permanent
supervision over the military opera
tons.
This desired authority, though not
so extended as the individual powers
given to the commissaires sent by the
committee of public safety to watch
over the generals of the revolutionary
army, was held by the more moderate
and conservative members to amount
to the same thing. Some saw in it
simply another manoeuvre in the cam
paign that has been waged for months
in the lobbies of the chamber against
the minister of war, and some other
members of the cabinet. The object
was supposed to be to put the govern.
ment into the position of refusing
parliament the right of supervision
and, thus, apparently exercising a sort
of a ministerial dictation.
The campaign started with crit
clsms of the censorship of articles O:
a political nature, and it developed
later into an assault upon the sanitar!
service and upon the general staff O
the army. The socialist organ l.,
