Stomachless
A Walking

CHICAGO, Dec. 18 U.S).
When Joe Krall, the man without
q stomach, lost that famous
organ, he lost his privacy at the
same moment.
The knife which performed the
operation automatically trans
formed Joe Krall from a human
being who once drank too much
alcohol to a scientific curiosity.
It is possible that for the re-
mainder of his life Joe Krall will
be followed and observed by SCI
entific gentlemen who will wish
to know how he reacts to every
thing.
From now on he will be =
human guineapig, a walkin g
laboratory and subject for obSer-
vation. So far as DR.. Karl Meyer
knows, Joe Krall is unique in the
world. And DR.. Meyer is head
Of the worlds largest hospital,
the Cook County. DR.. Meyer said,
when asked what the medical
profession can possibly learn by
observing Kral:
"That is impossible to say, ex-
actly. We may discover, in
time, that the stomach can be
Just as superfIuOuS an organ as
the appendix. We may learn
that the removal Of a nOn-malig-
nant stomach has beneficial ef-
fects of a nature not even sus-
pected."
For the time being DR.. Meyer

and his associates in the case are
feeding their stomachless patient
with ventriculum-an extract Of
the stomach membrane Of pigs
and liver extract. This is given
to the patient in addition to
steaks, chickens, potatoes, pies
and ice cream.
The stomach, DR.. Meyer said,
is not significant in the process Of
digestion. It is simply a store
house in which food is kept and
prepared for digestion in the in
testineS.

SEWER SYSTEMS FOR
PROGRESSIVE TOWNS
ChestertOwn, Bel Air and North
East Take Advantage OF
Public Works Funds

Official notice was served on the
Mayor and City Council of Chester
town at it's regular October rleeting,
by the Maryland State Department
of Health that sewage disposal
plant must be erected in Chester
town, Kent county. The order, is
sued by X. H. Riley, director of the
State Department of Health, set Feb
ruary /, 1894, as the date by which
the plant must be in operation.
A special meeting of the Mayor
and Council has been called for Oc-
tober is, when the disposal plant
topic will come under final consid-
GRAFTON.
The order brought to an end sew
eral years of wrangling over the
sewage disposal plant project.
In issuing such an order the State
Board of Health was exercising a
right granted it by the 1891 Mary
land General Assembly.
The order not only calls for the
construction of a sewage disposal
plant but makes it necessary for all
buildings not now connected with the
town sewerage system to be so con-
nected.
1t is practically certain that the
town will take az, antage of the
Public Works Act to get the money
from the Federal Government, 81
per cent of which will be an out
right gift to the town.

LARGE BARN AND
CROPS DESTROYED
Fire Causes Heavy Loss On
Clagett Farm At Gathers
Corner

The large double-deck barn on
the farm of the late Mrs. w. B.
Clagett, at Gathers Corner about
three miles south of Rising Sun, was
totally destroyed by fire On We'd
nesday evening of last week.
The theory of spontaneous COM
bustion is advanced, as the fire ap-
pears TO have originated in the NOW
where soy bean hay was stored.
When discovered, about nine o'clock,
the flames had made great Roadway
and were bursting through the roof.
The Community Fire Company of
Rising Sun, was summoned.
Port Deposit Fire Company also
responded with two pieces of ap-
paratus, and the Oxford, Pa, Fire
Company with chemical truck.
The barn was doomed and the fire.
men gave their attention tc saving
the nearby wagon shed and corn
crib, which they succeeded in doing
after hard fight. Both these
structures were in close proximity to
the burning building and were on
fire several times, but were saved.
The direction of the wind carried
flying embers away from the dwell
ing.
Over 200 tons of hay and large
quantity of seed wheat were destroy
ed with the barn, together with
harness and some farm implements.
The silo was partially burned and
fell, but much of the silage was
saved and can be fed.
The barn was one of the finest in
this section and had been recently
greatly improved with modern
stabling for a large herd of dairy
cattle. The live stock, fortunately,
was in the pasture lot adjoining the
barn and not in danger.
The farm is tenanted by Zeb Bar
ton who carried no insurance, and
suffers heavy loss.
1t is estimated the loss is over
| $4,000, with an insurance of $4,000
on the barn and $500 on the crops.

CONVICTED ON THE
CHARGE OF BICAMY
Mexican Divorce Held Illegal
Suspended Sentence OF Eigh-
teen Months Given

Found guilty of bigamy in a case
testing Mexican uNo1ceS in Mary
land, Justin M. Edgerton, New York
credit manager, was given a sus-
pended sentence of eighteen months
in the State Penitentiary.
In passing sentence, Chief Judge
William H. Adkins said Eigerton
evidently had believed he Was with
in the law, but that the p4ollc
"sho ala he tod and advised "a the
;Iavlty of the o.4ense.
The trial was the outgrowth of
Edgertons third marriage. James
NJ. Adams, a textile manufacturer of
New Bedford, Mass, brought the
ci--.ge after Edgerton and Miss
trace Adams, daughter of the manu-
iacturer, were married in Elkton
last June. The New Yorker had Sc
cured Mexican divorces from his
two previous wives.
The decision of the jury came
after very definite instructions from
the bench. After hearing how Mexi-
can divorces were secured, the court
informed the jurors that the divorce
Edgerton secured from his first
wife, Catherine Whitney, was in
valid because he had not established
residence in the country.
This action made it unnecessary to
rule on Edgerton's second divorce.
Subsequent to the jury decision,
Edgerton was placed on the witness
stand and gave the judges history
of the case from his standpoint.
The judges then retired for an hour
before announcing their sentence.
In the case of State VS.. Joseph
Devonshire, charged with rape on
Mildred Adams, the 10-year old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Adams, of near PerryviIie, last
March, the jury reported no hope of
an agreement, was discharged and a
mistrial entered.
Frank Stevenson, indicted on a
charge of perverted practice pleaded
guilty to common assault.
Benjamin P. Sartin and William
w. Taylor, pleaded guilty to larceny
of oil, etc., from the Chesapeake
Fuel Company at Chesapeake City,
and were sentenced to six months in
the House of Correction.
James Jones, colored, was before
the Court on charge of deserving
his wife, but receipts showed he had
been paying her money and he was
discharged
Charles Earl Boyce, Fred Boyce
and Richard Boyce were found guilty
Of selling liquor and violating the
.ocal option law They were arrest
I'd in raid on the U-Go-I, Go Inn,
near Elkton. Each received SEN
tence of $3.50 fine and costs, or in
default six months in the House Of
Correction.
Joseph Gostomski pleaded guilty
20 operating a slot machine at U-Go,
I-Go Inn. Court imposed a fine Of
$25 and costs.
When the fall term of Circuit
Court, which has recessed until Mon
day, October 80, reconvenes, it is ex-
pected that the case of Irwin T. KEEP
Ter, former executive officer of the
Elkton Banking and Trust Company,
will come to trial.
The judges will hear argument on
the bill of particulars while the Kent
County Circuit Court is in session
at Chestertown, on October II. Mr.
Kepler was recently indicted ON
eight diffeent charges by the grand
jury of the fall term of Circuit Court
at Elkton.

Honor City
H. S. Stars
Standout Players on Prep
EIeVenS Selected on
Times Team.
BY DICK MILLER

indianapolis high school football
enjoyed one of its most successful
seasons this fall since the sport was
revived locally thirteen years ago.
Washington, Tech and Shortridge
finished in a deadlock for the title
and each had outstanding stars
who frequently made victories pos
sible by their individual perform
anceS.
In presenting The Times all-city
1888 selections the first team is
made up of: Ends, Steckley Of Ca
thedral and Woerner of Tech;
tackles, Brown, Tech, and Faris,
ShOrtridge; guards, Cato. Short
ridge, and Luzar, Washington; CEN
ter, Greeley, Washington; quarter
back, Constantine, Manual; half
backs, Bohne, Tech, and Mcmahon,
Cathedral; full back, Cherry, Wash
ington.
1t is the writer's opinion that only
in few spots was strong comparison
needed to decide between players.
Steckley and Woerner were given
a Slight edge over Rohyans and
Mears at ends. Mcmahon and
Bohne, because of their consistency
all season, were given shade over
MacLucaS of Shortridge.
Harry Cherry. the Washington
ace, was only able to win the full
back job over Danner of Tech be-
cause he wound up the season in
glory, playing great games against
Tech and Manual. Otherwise, the
selections speak for themselves.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1933-11-18

ler's boys called for one of their
favorite scoring plays, a pass Bohne
Woerner, and it clicked for six
points. Woerner scored the seventh
on an end around play.
Tech threatened throughout the
second half, but splendid defensive
work by Westfall, half back who
was converted into an end last week,
and Cato and Faris stopped them.
Poor punting cost Shortridge in
the third period and set Tech up
for scoring chance. The big Green
forwards broke through and blocked
a kick and finally recovered it on
the Blue 1-yard line, from where
Snyder battered over.
Taking the chief ball carrying as
signmentS in a fifty yard first
quarter march down field Harry
Cherry, Washington's star full back,
pushed over a winning touchdown,
and Bob Mcdonald plunged for the
seventh point at the Manual grid
iron. Washington threatened once
more, and late in the game Manual
blocked a kick and headed for goal
but was stopped.
