J. D. Kcat , who ran for the office of
county attorney _ of Shelby county on the
republican ticket'in the last election , was In
the city yesterday looking- for pointers on
the subject of election contests. 1'ottawat-
tamlo county has been blessed with a num
ber of these luxuries lately , nnd he accord
ingly had no difficulty In getting all the
pointers he wanted. The election was very
close In Shelby county , nnd at first It was
thought that the republicans had carried
everything , in spite of the fact of the county
being usually democratic by n largo ma
jority. 13ut It was found that a mistake
been made In adding up the columns , and
the democrats had carried the day wltli ma
jorities ranging from one to live or six. Mr.
Kcat happens to be one of thoas favored
with n minority of one , and he Is therefore
going to make n contest , lie stated that
ho had learned of one voter who took out
nalmallzatloti papers hera without having
shown lila first papers. In making appli
cation for his second papers he culd ha had
lost his first papers , and that fact was en
dorsed on the second papers as they were
Issued by the Judge. Keat claims the rec
ords In Shelby county show that he took
out his first papers In Shelby county Just
one year ago. As he voted the democratic
ticket comethlng Interesting Is looked fet
as n sequel. All the majorities were sc
small that the contest Is HKely to UP pushed
with a good deal of energy.

Now that a new ordinance fixing th
charges of hack drivers at Jl.CO for UIB firs
passenger and GO cents for additional pas
sengers to the School for the Deaf Is beln
considered , the city officials are beglnnln
to wonder whether It will bo worth as muc
as the paper It Is written on when It come
to trying to enforce It. There la no questlo
as to the right of the city council to pas
a law regulating charges within the clt
limits , but no law has as yet been foun
that would authorise It to exercise Jurlsdlctlo
over the county outside. Nor do the stni
utes of Iowa authorize even the county supei
visors to pass laws regulating hack drlvei
In the county , EG that the hope express *
by some of the doubting Thomases In tt
council that perhaps the law might be pi
Into operation with the co-operation of tt
supervisors , seems to be without fouiulntlo
It has been suggested that the licenses I
sued to hack drivers might be so drawn , i
as to make a sort of contract by which th <
were made forfeiture In case more than tl
sum fixed In the ordinance was charged. Bi
In that event nothing could he done In tl
way of enforcement until July 1 , 1895 , win
the licenses now held expire.

and young George Vandcrbllt Is making In

vllle , N. C. , to a reporter of the St. I
Pioneer-Press. "Mr , Vanderbllt Is golm
hats do some experimenting on a very largo s
In the cultivation and conservation of
ests , and your people ought to be > more
terested In what he Is doing than any
the continent. Ho has bought an cnorn
and tract of country upwards of half a mil

knowledge that thei < public wilt not bo

iit > tun tor tfiti bnin'c iiulllc.
"Ills first sup wnt'tho acquisition of this .
tract of land , and Ifiti-.second was the buildIng - !
Ing of a railroad frciii Ashcvlllo to a place
1m calls Blltmorc , about five miles south.
Near thU town of Illltmoro ho Is building
a most magnificent 'Palace ' , nnd Is employing
about 700 workmen. Whom ho treats with
every consideration , nnd whom he proposes
shall form the nucleus' ' ot the population of
the model city of JllHVnore. This town Is
being built to represent ; n Swiss village , and
It will cost an Immense amount of money to
carry out what appVars' to bo the projector's
plan for filling gorges and cutting a\\ay hills.
When his plans are complete ho proposes to
use n number of the chalets for the benefit
of Indigent New Yoikers who nro affected
with bronchial troubles mid who haven't the
means to secure treatment under proper con
ditions. The rest of the Inhabitants will
find a livelihood In carrying out Mr. Vnnder-
bllt's plans for the planting of forests and
the cultivation ot experimental farms
"Tho town will probably have some of the
better features of Pullman , but will differ
from It materially. In fact , the latter
was founded and Is run to make money for
Its founder , while the town of Blltmoro Is
to furnish Its projector with means of get
ting rid ot some of his wealth In n manner
that 111 best serve the Interests of humanity.
I wonder that the project has not yet
been exploited In the papers , but Mr. Van-
durbllt Is very much opposed to notoriety
and Is yet a very young man and ho knows
It , so that ho has rather tried to keep his
object hidden until such time as It Is fully
developed. His mother Is Interested In the
project with him , and has already built at
Ashevllle a building devoted to the Improve
ment ot the colored youth of the city. H Is
a sort ot training school , and has some of
the features of the polytechnic schools. It Is
maintained entirely by Mrs. Vanderbllt and
George.
"Bill Nye Is Mr. Vanderbllt's nearest
neighbor. And speaking of hl'ii reminds me
that ho has been gaining fame on false pre
tenses. He doesn't live nt Ashevllle , but
on a farm about ten miles couth In the
mountains. He calls the place Buckshoal ,
nnd the man he bought It from goes down
on his knees every night and thanks God
that the eenec ot humor that Is In the
American people Is so keen that It fur
nished Mr. Nye with the price to buy n
farm If he wanted to. Nobody on earth
but n man with BUI Nyc's sense of the
ridiculous would ever have bought Buck-
shoal. It's the funniest thing In the way
of a farm ever Imagined. But Nye has built
a nlco house and put a whole lot of money
Into pulverizing rocks to make cell , and per <
haps ho will have a farm there yet. "
HAS A JAW MADE OF GOLD.
A Wonderful Stirclrnl Operation 1'ci formed
on H Now York riiYtlvlnn.
Next to the pleasure of being known as a
silver-tongued orator comes that of having a
gold jaw. Of that unusual possession a prom
inent physician of New York City boasts ; yet
'according to the Herald ho experiences no
different feeling with It , so exactly Is It ad
justed , than any one else dees with a com
monplace , everyday Jaw , Some time previous
to Its acquisition ho suffered from a throat
trouble , such as General Grant had , called
eplthclloma. Surgeons treated It by heroic
measures. To reach"the spot where the ma
lignant growth lay , under the tongue and
near the thorax , necessitated an operation
wherein lowerrjaw-was entirely cut In
two nnd a portioivvof | t removed and Im
portant muscles were severed. Then the two
parts of the lower jaw Were laid back to allow
the surgeon to work' untter the roots of the
tongue. A peculiarity > f the case at this
juncture lay In the-xact-tliat the muscles on
each side of the moptli being Independent of
one another , the severed parts of the lower
jaw could not work , in unison. The masseter
muscle , attached td the smaller remaining
portion of the Jaw'contracted ' In the process
of healing , and tha doctor , who had
been a fine looking manibeforo the operation ,
now went about with a misshapen face.
The masseter Is one pf : the strongest mus
cles In the system , being' the only one that
does not act as a levor. put having a straight
pull. Notice , In Illustration of Its power ,
how a boy who wishes to crack a nut puts
it between the molars , and then pulls the
masseter to crush ahead , or the playful
puppy , who knows by Instinct where his best
grip Is , struggling with a bone.
A dental surgeon now came to the rescue.
It took a knowledge of the power of ma
chinery , an Inventive faculty and the skill
of a sculptor , In addition to the dentist's
regular acumen. A Jackscrew with a ball
and socket lolnt exactly such as would be
)0 ) used to raise a locomotive , except
In miniature had to bo resorted to ,
and the jaw was jacked open , re
quiring a strain of several days , to compel
the powerful masseter muscles to relax. This
accomplished , a wcdgo was put in to keep
that part of the mouth apart ; then the jackscrew -
screw was used to force the larger segment
ot the severed jaw back to Its original cir
cle , where It was held by a splint so devised
ge as to be removable , till it had regained Its
gey normal condition , whereupon a gold jaw and
yas teeth \vere modeled to fill the space and also
he bind the two sections of the jaw together.
is- By the aid of the surgeon's knife the disease
isIn had been entirely removed , and , followed
m- up by this remarkable feat ot dentistry , the
mhe articulation and occlusion restored and mas
tication rendered as complete as before the
ur
MS operation. Previous to the dental work his
. food was pushed through the orifice between
VB.
sir the upper and lower Jaws. .Another point
of Interest lies In the announcement that
new cartilage is forming across the chasm ,
at and It Is hoped in the course of a year or so
to find the Jaw working Independent of the
cold one.
