Making a Now Arm fora Man.
A surgical operation of exceeding in
terest isl)o!ni performed lit tho Ilatnio
man Hospitaljsays tho JT. Y. 7Ytbnie.
It Is ono of those cases that cannot bo
finished at a single sitting, but which
must bo carried through various stages
in i progressive way lrom tho begin
ning to ilio end. It. was begun about
thrco weeks ngo, and from tho present
indications thero is little doubt that
tho result desired will bo attained.
Tho patient is Christopher Doll, a
German, 31 years old. Ho received
his injury accidentally. Ho was ex
tremely fond of smoking a pipe. One
ovening about nine months ngo ho was
enjoying a quiet smoke in his room,
and wliilo reading fell asleep. In
some way tho pipe, which ho still held
in his mouth, was overturned, and tho
hot ashes fell from tho bowl upon his
shirt sleovo and set it on lire. It
smothered a tinio and burned several
small holes in tho si cove, and then it
burst into a tlamo and tho sleeper was
aroused. Tho firo had reached his
llesh, and ho toro at tho burning cloth
madly. Ho rolled over on tho floor,
and tmally tho tlamo was extinguished.
His right arm from the wrist to the
shoulder was terr'bly burned, and it
looked as If tho tlesh could bo scraped
from tho bono without trouble. Tho
pain was intense, and from tho nature
of tho wound it appeared as if the arm
would havo to be amputated closo up
to tho shoulder. Private medical treat
ment was tried for a time, but as it
did not accomplish any material bene
fit Doll went to a hospital. Ho re.
maincd under constant caru for two
months, lly this timo the forearm
had healed, leaving a frightful scar,
with the cicatrical tissue drawiug in
every direction. Despite tho most per
severing treatment tho upper portion
of tho arm from the elbow to tho
shoulder could not be healod. Tho pa
tient went to several hospitals, but
could get no rcliof. Theie was Bitch a
largo surface of exposed flesh in tho
wound that tho pus formation was un
usually large, and tiie antiseptic pre
cautions which wcro taken did not pre
vent the absorption ot the poisonous
matters into tho patients ovstera
Thus a dangerous condition of blood
poisoning was set up. He grow pale
and emaciated, lost his strength, and
courage, and when ho-was admitted to
the Hahnemann Hospital, about two
months ago, ho was a living skeleton
with hardly muscular power enough
lett to raiso his hand.
As soon as ho was admitted mcas
urea wero taken to stamp out the blood
contamination, which were eventually
successful, and patient began to recov
er strength. "yiien ho got strong
enough and his body was sufficiently
free from the incidental disease, it was
determined by the attending surgeon
to mako a new upper arm from the
tlesh of the patient's body, and to heal
up the wound by covering it over with
healthy tissue. At first small pieces
of flesh wore taken from various parts
of his body and placed in different
spots upon the raw shoulder as a mat
tor of experiment,to determino whether
the tlesh could be successfully crafted
The experiment was successful. Tho
little pieces of flesh and skin united
and made little oases on the dise&sed
shoulder. These minor operations
.were performed several days apart and
without too use of anv other than
local ana'Sthetic. Everything had
gone ,on so well that about ten days
ago it was determined to begin I ho
moro important part of tho operation,
which conaited in covering up a large
portion of the arm at ono time will
flesh. The patient was first put under
tho inlluence ot an anesthetic. Then
all tho cicatrical tissue upon the upper
arm was scraped with a kmlo until
wed proiusely and was entirely raw.
"Wlrile tho arm was held awav from
the body two incisions wero mado about
ttirce inches apart running upward
lrom all tho nhs tor about seven inches.
At the lower end of these incisions
crosscut was made, and then the strip
ot nesn was dissected up trom the ribs.
the full length of tho incision, making
ajargollap. 1 his was. lei t united at
the upper end. Then tho patient's
arm was brought close to his side and
this loose flap was laid over on tho
raw flesh on the arm and carefully
pressed and fitted iiuo position. When
this had been done there was still
largo section of tho upper back
arm remaining uncovered. Two in
cisious were again made similar to th
first two, running up and down the
upper portion of the side of tho back,
Tho flesh was thick at this point, and
permitted a free dissection. While
tho upturned flesh was yet palpitating
with the heart inlluence, it was put
over the bleeding'Hurfaco of tho arm
and fitted into place. Then the two
flaps were securely fastened into posi
lion by loug bands of sticking plaster,
while larger bands were run over th
lower portion of tho arm and around
tho abdomen and back, and interlaced
so that all motion of tho arm was stoi
ped. After the wholo wound had been
covered with an antiseptio dressing,
mo ether cone ,va.s taken oil the pa
tients lace, and ho soon recovere
consciousness. He suffered littlo from
rihock, and the. hemorrhage was com
paratiyely slight.
The arm was kept securely fastened
to his Bido for a wcuk, and the wound
was carefully dressed every day. At
first it was not thought that tho tlesh
from the side would adhero te the tlesh
on tho arm, but after two days it took
n h rm hold and grew as it it belongs
there, and little shoots of new lies!
branched out in every direction
few days ago tho ends uniting tho tw
flaps to tho body wero severed, th
loose portiotis were drawn around tl
under side of the arm, tho edges trim
med so as to make a perfect fit, and
wero then united with sutures.
contimiiiiL' the operation it will
necessary to alter tho shapo of the flaps
in some places. Unly a little slougl:
iug has taken place, and this has had
no injurious effect. Tho arm now
presents a comparatively natural an
pearanee. Tho biceps tnusclo will
Homewnat restricted until It gets usee
to tho now covering, and then it will
move as freely as ever. Tho patient
is physically strong, and since tho pat
lias subsided in his arm, has improved
perceptibly, and the prospects are that
lie will bo ablo to imvo the hospital
about a week with u now arm.

from the Venter TrUjune-lleputAicai),
Men ceneially cross their legs when
there is the least pressure on their

aro straighter than at any other, be

A man engaged 111 auditing accounts

raau who is wiitiug an article, or who
is employed in any manner where hi
brait( is actively engaged ; when at
work in n silting posture the limbs
naturally extend to tho floor in a per
fectly Btraigtit line. A man may cross
bis legs if he is sitting in an ollice chair
discussing somo .business proposition
with another man, but the instant he
becomes really in earnest and peiccives

When a man is reading a unwspa per

nounced a most jierfnct reproduction
of thoBO of the oreat Westminister
palace clock in London, hut with somo
additions and improvements adapted
to its commercial purpose. It is con
structed of iron, bronze and steel, and
weighs ten tons witltin.t the bell, the
latter adding some .t,,)00 pounds more.
Tho pendulum alone weiuhs .ri0

Each of tho tiaius is operated by a

together reach somo !),,Q0 pounds.
The hammer that strikes the Loll

A huge California hawk swooped
down on a sleeping cat at Santa Uosa,
California, tho other day, and bore it
squalling and scratching high in tho
air. When about 500 feet hiah the
hawk lost its grip, and the cat came
down with fearful velooity, but the
nawk caught it again lust before it
struck thu earth, and was carrying it
off when suddenly both fell like lead to
to tho ground. Tho cat had bitten
through the hawk's h-'ad, killing it in,
stantly, and the fall killed the oat.
Tha Wheat Outlook.
Seventeen hundred reports, covering

Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Kansas,
nud Missouri say tho present prospects
of tho growing crop are very favorable
in Indiana, Misiouri, Illinois, and Ohio,
fair to good in Michigan, and poor in
Ivansa. All show nu important im
provement sinco tho recent rains. Tho
prospect averages even better thin
