AMAZING FEAT BY
III
R SAVES BABY
Speeding in Auto Ambulance to
Hospital He Whirls Child
Over Head
SPECTATORS THINK HIM CRAZY
But Startling Treatment Dislodges
Six-Pronged Iron Caught In Young
ster's Windpipe and Prevents Its
Killing Evan Kllleen.
Xow York City. By treatment bo
heroic that many persons who saw it
thought the surgeon was demented,
Dr. Burko of Bellevue Ho- pltal, saved
the life of Evan Klllecu, 9 months old,
of No. 253 Avenue A. The baby was
choking to death slowly from a jack
which ho had attempted to. swallow,
and which had lodged In his windpipe.
Seated in an ambulance which was
goiulng through the East Side streets
at n llfty-niile clip, Dr. Burke seized
the baby by the heels, swung him
head downward several times, and
then began whirling him about hla
head. When the ambulance reached
Twenty-third street and First avenuo
the surgeon heard something strike
the bottom of tlij ambulance with a
metnlllc ring. He also heard tlio
baby glvo a gasp of relief.
Pausing In tlio heroic treatment
which ho was practicing, the surgeon
looked toward the bottom of the am
bulanre, and was delighted to sou tlio
six-pronged piece of Iron lying there.
Then he took the baby tenderly In his
arms and endeavored to make up by
soothing treatment for all tlio neces
sary rough usage to which ho had sub
jected the youngster since the raco
against death started. Little Evan
was almost exhausted. The surgeon
knew, however, his patient's life was
saved, and that In a few hours he
would be all right again.
The run to the hospital was con
tinued, and Dr. Burko soon had the
child snugly quartered In a soft bed.
News of the lucky outcome of the un
usual treatment was sent to Mrs. Kll
leen, and she almost fainted from joy.
She had been expecting to receive
news of her baby's death, so desperato
was the situation when the race for
the hospital started. Putting on her
hat and coat she hurried to the hospi
tal to see her child and to thank the
surgeon. By the t!:u she arrived
there the baby was fast asleep.
Little Evan anil lin sister were
playing jacks in tiieir home shortly
before bedtime in tlio evening. The
baby put one of tho jacks in his mouth
and it slipped down the windpipe.
Mrs. Killeon heard the baby gasping,
and the little girl told her the cause
of it. Hoping to dislodge the jack,
Mrs. Killeen laid Evan across her lap,
face downward, and pounded his back
in a fruitless effort to dislodge the
piece of iron. It refused to be budged,
and she ran with the baby to a neigh
boring drug store.
The druggist tried his hand at it,
and he, too, failed to dislodge the
jack. Then he telephoned to Dr.
Burke of Bellevuo, who soon arrived
in an auto-ambulance capable of a
speed of sixty miles an hour. Being
without instruments to perform tra
cheotomy, the surgeon started on his
race for the operating room in the
hospital. It was just when the am
bulance started that the surgeon
thought he would try the unusual
treatment which resulted In saving
the life of the baby.

WHAT MAKES
HARD TIMES?
International Bible Lesson for
June 27, '09 (Rom. 13: 3-14).
Chicago, .Mine 'JL'. Professor (.ioorj-v
Buriiiau Tostcr of the University of
Ciilcano, whose denial of the divinity
of Christ in a recent book 1ms stirred
Chicago Baptists to a high pitch of n
M'tilmont, was dropped from tho Bap
tist ministers' conference of Chicago
on a chargi' of heresy.
UNses. groans, yells and general
confusion made tho mooting one of
the stormiest ever hold by churchmen
hi Chicauo. anil It was referred to by
one preacher as resembling a political
niopling in a rowdy ward. ,
The young son of Professor Foster ,
was present. j
'It's u shame and unfair." lie shout- 1
ed as he niarehed out of (lie hall. I
The insistence of the Nov. Dr. A. C. ,
Dixon of the Moody ehitrcli that Pro
fessor Foster lie dropped brought the I
light around to himself, the real object !
of the tneetliig being disregarded for a
lime. i
The Itev. Dr. D. D. MeLaurlii jfilrted
trouble by iishliig for a coiiiuilrfee to
Investigate Dr. Dixon's right to nieiii
liership In the conference. This motion
was hissed down, and Dr. Dixon ex
plained that he joined the Itaptist
church In New York.
Dr. M. P. Itoynton came In for a
hissing when he said:
"We nre not going at this matter
right. Foster is as good as Myers or
my one hero nnd"
His voice was drowned. The Myers
referred to is the Rev. Dr. Johnston
Myers, one of the chief assailants of
Professor Foster.
Dr. Myers attempted to introduce a
resolution to drop Professor Foster,
whereat his voracity was assailed by
the Itov. A. II. Haruloy.
This matter was decided for good
and all last week," he shouted. "Dr.
Myers promised on his honor that if ho
didn't get his resolution through then
he would not again bring it up. Now
he Is doing exactly contrary to Ills
promise."
"I deny the statement," responded
Dr. Myers coolly. "I promised not to
reintroduce that particular motion be
cause my motives had been imi'stioucd.
Specific charges wore wanted, and that
i what I have here now."
Dr. Myers declared that mouths n-'o
Professor Foster was asked to explain
to the conference why he should be
considered a Uaptist. and the educator
had refused point blank.
During the excitement motions, coun
ter motions and a parliamentary mix
up generally prevailed. After four
hours, however, worn out by their iv
ertioiis emotions, the preachers
adopted the resolution dropping Pro
fessor Foster from the conference.
The conference has not the power to
expel him from the church, and while
such an event seemed to bo desired
by those present no definite plan of
action was mapped out.
ATTACK ON UNIVERSITIES.
CANNIBALISM IN NORTH CANADA.
Hunter's Body Found Cut Up and One
of His Companions Never Found.
Roberval, Ont. In December, 1907,
two guides, Bernard and Lemlux, and
a third man, Grassett, started from
here on a hunting expedition into the
northern woods, intending to be nb-
sent four months. The party ran
short of provisions in the Chohott
gamoc country, and Bernard and Lo,'
mlux started back to a lake where
some had been cached.
Eventually Grassett was brought
out of the woods alone by an Indian,
whom ho had met, to a Hudson Bay
post, where he got an engagement as
trapper. Indians found the body ol
Lemlux in the woods, cut up, with
several of the vital organs missing
and most of the fleshy parts of the
body cut off. There was every indi
cation of cannibalism.
Grassett was found at the Hudson
Bay post and ordered to come to Rob
erval and attend an inquest This he
did, traveling over 1,000 miles, 300 of
the distance being made on snow
shoes. The jury, after listening to
Grassett's evidence, returned a ver
diet exonerating him from all connec
tion with the death of Lemlux. Ber
nard has never been heard from.

New York City. One of the most
remarkable documents ever encoun
tered by the stan" of the Central Office
Detective Bureau was found In the
rooms of George Hunt, a man on the
police records as of many aliases and
with a long career as a burglar.
The document is an exhaustive and
comprehensive disquisition on the art
of safe-blowing. Prompted by unmis
takably expert knowledge, it is set
forth with the sobriety of language
and regularity of arrangement of a
Fchool manual. It is, in a word, evi
dently Intended as a vado mecum for
the ambitious young cracksman; a
hind of Baedeker for burglars.
Parts of It are in the cryptic "yegg"
code, a lingo of tho thieves' fraternity,
but most of it is in well chosen Eng
lish. For ocamplc, tho caption of
tho first page is:

Bishop McFaul Says Harvard, Yale
and Princeton Breed Vice.
New York, June 122. "Harvard.
Princeton and Yale are undermining
faith anil teaching immorality," de
clared Jilshop James A. McFaul of
Trenton in addressing the graduates
at tho commencement of St. Francis
Xavicr's college here.
"If the Catholics who are sending
their sons to these universities know
of the rascality. Immorality and disre
spect for womankind that Is being
taught in those Institutions they would
tear down the buildings," ho added.
"There, are families In this country
that are sacrificing their Catholic faith
and their church taught morality ir
their fanatical and lunatic desire to
get Into society. That's why they send
their sons to Harvard. Princeton and
Yale. They want to get Into society
through the associates their children
meet nt these institutions.
"What we want," the bishop went
on, "Is to hnve them sent to Catholic
schools, where we teach them that
there arc such commandments us
'thou shalt not steal,' 'thou shalt not
commit ndultnry, 'thou shalt not bear
false witness against thy neighbor.'
No power but the CHtholIc church can
stem these evJls."
Hertzian Wave Diseases.
London. The Lancet notes a report
of Dr. Belltle, a French naval surgeon
on board the cruiser Descartes, en
gaged in tho Morocco campaign, on
the various affections devoloped by
the action of Hertzian waves among
wireless telegraph operators. The
commonest Is slight conjunctivitis.
One case was serious. The wearing
at yellow glasses is recommended.
Other effects are eczema, which Is
difficult to cure, and painful palpita
tion of the heart, though organic lo
tion 1b entirely absent. Dr. Belllle la
disposed to believe that many cases
of "nervousness," which seems to bo
gatting rather common among naval
men. mar be duo to wlrelesa work.
Directly beneath this, but whether
in the way of definition is not known,
are the words: "An old safe a great

On this page and those immediately
succeeding are diagrams of safes and
doors and combination desks, and
after that the manuscript launches
forth upon Its set purpose.
The literature which so interested
the police consisted of a number of
foolscap pages closely written in long
.hand There were enough words writ
ten in plain English to establish that
fact, but a large part of the thing was
written In cipher.
It Is not a difficult cipher. It con
slsts in substituting for each letter of
the alphabet another letter, the ar
rangement being simple and recipro
cal. A, for example, stands for TJ, and
In its turn U stands for A, and hero
is the whole alphabet, any letter In
the cipher meaning the other letter in
the same column:

A reporter of the Evening Sun was
the first of the puzzlers to figure the
thing out
Whoever the author is ho discourses
at length and in great detail upon his
subject, discussing various makes of
safes by name, giving directions for
cracking them with reference to the
peculiarities of the different treasure
boxos and also writing down a recipe
for the concoction of useful explosive,
which he invariably describes aa
"soup." It does not sound like parti
cularly nutritious soup.
Exact directions are given, all in
cipher, as to where borings should bs
made in certain safes, together with
diagrams Indicating just where the
drills should enter, also measurements
and careful detail so that mistakes
can be avoided.
Big Diamond In Hla Cigar.
Wilmington, Del. Levi J. Satter
field, of Mllford, wondered why a cigar
that he was smoking did not draw. On
Investigating ho found a handsome
diamond of two karats, worth $800,
firmly Imbedded In the "flner,"
The most wide
spread, destruc
tive antagonism
Christianity has
to meet in all our
land Is the liquor
habit. According
to the recent
census there are
four croacerles
In this country to !
every church and
six bartenders to ,
every minis
ter. And thirty
times as much
coney is spent every year in drinking
places as is given to all church andj
benevolent purposes In this country.
Think of it. Tho annual drink bill of
tlte United States is over four times
as much as the value of all tho church
property of all denominations. That
Is to say. In one year tho people of
this country pour down their throats
money enough to build four times as
mnny churches of tho samo grndo as
now exists. Statistics prove that It la
the direct cause of u yearly output of
100.000 criminals sentenced to prison.
200,000 to tho poor house, 300 mur
ders, -100 suicides, with 500 funerals
a day.
Beer vs. Bread.
Statistics do not mean much, we are
not able to comprehend them. But a
comparison may help us to get some
ideu of where the money goes. Sup
pose the liquor bill for one year was
devoted to tho purchase of flour. It
would buy over 200,000,000 barrels, or
more than two barrels for every man,
woman and child in the country. Now
suppose that flour loaded on teams of
10 barrels each, it would take 20,000,-
000 teams to deliver it. Allowing
each team 24 feet of room, it would
form a procession over 90,000 miles
long, -extending nearly four times
around the globe, or more than one
third the distance from tho earth to
tho moon. Save that money which is
worse than thrown away and this
nation would never hear "tho moan of
hard times from now on to the mll-lcnium.
The Pocket Nerve.
You would have more money In
the bank, better clothes on your
back, better food on your tabic.
more leisure, more luxuries, for
yourself and your family, If it
were not for tho demands made
upon you to provide houses of correc
tion, prisons, almshouses, insane asy
lums, reformatories, hospitals, institu
tions of all grades into which marches
or is carried n long procession of men.
women and children, the finished pro
duct of the liquor habit. There is
whore tlio money goes. Nine-tenths
of all the poverty and suffering of
this land without question is owing to
sinking the money in this bottomless
pit of intemperance. Save the money
sunk In this black abyss annually and
not another woman would shiver In
the cold, not another half-starved
child cry for bread. Every man who
is inspired by philanthrophy, patriot
ism or religion ought to be interested
to smash the nation's greatest curse.
On the principle of self-defense, pro
tection of our own Interests, as citi
zens and taxpayers, we ought to
arouse ourselves to this evil, if from
no higher motive.
Precept and Example.
And judgment must begin at the
house of God. There is one perfect
ly sure remedy for Intemperance, and
that is total abstinence. Let us bring
our children up by our example as
well as by our precept. Let us set in
our household such a blazing light be
fore our children that when they
come into the temptations of great
cities they shall bo strong in ad
vance of their period of trial; let us
put the church on tho right side, a
pillar of cloud by day and of Are by
night, a guide to the militant host, a
confusion and destruction to her foes.
When we purge the church we shall
purge the parlor, we shall purge the
press, we shall purge the statute
books, wo shall purge the ballot box,
wo shall purge the executive, admin
Istratlvo powers of the government,
and wo shall thus deliver civilization
from a curse which has gnawed our
vitals moro deeply than war, or pestl'
lence, or famine.
This Is the next step In social re
form. And the fight thickens every
day. , Tho field of conflict extends year
by year. As Lincoln said, "This na
tlon cannot endure halt slave, and
half free," so we say, "This nation
cannot endure half drunk and half
sober." One or tho other condition
will have to bo changed. Constantly
tho fact looms up In darker hues and
more fearful proportions that rum is
man's deadliest foe, and wo nre pressed
to tho conclusion that tho demon's
reign must end. And stronger grow
tho hands, and moro hopeful the
hearts, and more earnest the prayers
of the great army arrayed against
this foe of God and man, marching on
to Its destruction. Since rum In one
form or another Is the main evil and
obstacle In tho pathway of humanity
and religion, It Is Inevitable that it
must co.
