Noted Men of Medicine Who Were
Vnable to Cur Them-seslves.
Dr. William Pepper, In a most Interest
lng paper presented at a recent meeting
of the Philadelphia County Medical so

eminent physicians. He stated that Laen
neo fell a victim to a disease the nature.
of which he had taken pains to describe
Lanclsl and Corvlsart died of diseased
hearts and Boyle sank under the ravages
ct the disease of which be had been the
most successful Illustrator. Sir Benjamin
Brodle, the great surgeon, died of cancer
of hla right shoulder joint. Dupuytren,
the moat famous surgeon of th laat cen
tury, died of an empyema. Refusing to
submit to an operation, he said that he
"would rather end his life through God'
hand than that of a surgeon." In more
recent times Mllkulicr, who. wrote on can
cer of the stomach, himself fell a victim
to this disease. Fowler of Brooklyn, hav
lng written on appendicitis, died of thl
disease. On the memorial tablet of Dr.
Jesse W. La war, who died of yellow fever.
are tha words, "With more than the cour
age and devotion of th soldier, he risked
and lost his life to show how a fearful
pestilence Is communicated and how Its
ravages may be prevented." Dr. Oull
lotln, the Inventor of th guillotine, had
his own head chopped off. A number of
distinguished physicians have been great
sufferers from the gout ' Sydenham said:
"Mora wise men than fool ar victims of
this affection." Angina pectoris has
claimed Its share of the medical profes

th names of Sir Jamea Y. Simpson, Sir
Charles Bell and John Hunter. Instances
are cited Illustrative of Osier's statement
that th profession offers many examples
of good work thoroughly and conscien

of the aorta. Dr. Thomas King Chambers
first had an aneurtam In the left popliteal

Bright died of the consequences of exten

aortic valves of the heart, the exit for
blood being reduced to a mere chink. Rob

aorta, which must have existed for years,
and been fostered by the great physical
exertions which characterised his recrea

013NTY DADS TAKE A TRIP
Five Memben and Surveyor Will In
spect New Paving.
THINK TARVA JUST THE THETQ
Will do to St. Joseph, Kansas City,
Chicago and Gary, Ind., to
See How It Worka oa
Macadam.
All of the members of the Board of
County Commissioners and tho county aur-
veyor will leave next week for a trip to
St. Joseph, Kansas City, Chicago and Gary,
Ind., to Investigate concrete pavementa and
tarva, a finish for macadam paving. The
commissioners figure the cost of the Junket
will be about 1S0 and It will be paid by
the county. There are five members of the
county board.
The county now has about twenty-five
miles of macadam road and the yearly ex
pense of keeping this road In repair Is so
much that the commissioners figure It will
be cheaper either to build concrete roads or
put th tarva finish on the macadam. Th
tarva coats about $300 a mile, the com
missioners figured, and tn many cities
where it has been used It has proven satis
factory, they affirm. On Nineteenth
street, near Nicholas, there is about
a halt block of tarva and, accord
ing to the commissioners, . this half
block Is in good condition. In South
Omaha on D street there Is a block of con
crete paving. The concrete paving costs
very little for repairs, the commissioners
say, and the dirt which accumulates on
this kind of paving does not damage It in
the least, but Instead an Inch of surface
makes It better and more durable. The
macadam alone, so the commissioners say.
Is not entirely satisfactory, for th pebbles
and stones are carried away In the dirt
and it takes constant work to keep such
a road in repair. Both the concrete and
the tarva are used extensively at Oary,
Ind., the new ateel city, and In Chicago,
and according to the reports which have
reached the commissioners both kinds of ,
paving have proven worth th money ex
pended.
THEATRICALS IN THE PARK
Amaaements Proposed as Means of
Raising; Reyenae to Bolster

That some revenue may be secured for
the maintenance of the city parka other
than appropriation "endowments," tha fea
sibility of employing a theatrical stock
company to glv outdoor performances
each evening during the aeason, to which
a small admission charge can be made, will
be discussed by the Park board at lta next
meeting. It Is understood.
As it Is now the Park board has no
source of revenue aside from Its appro
priations, and they are not sufficient for
all purposes. A small amount is secured
yearly from concessions and for hay cut

A south office
on the third floor
There is only one room, facing the south, in the whole
Bee building, that is vacant. This is an opportunity seldom
offered and there is no probability that this chance will be
open long. If you are interested in a good sized office for
reasonable rent now is the the time to make application,
before someone else snaps it up.
THE BEE BUILDING
There are four other offices In the building which are vacant,
ranging in price from $10 to $27.50 per month. It bo happens
that there are among these, several particularly desirable outside
rooms. If you are thinking of changing your office thlB Is the time
to look around, aa it la probable that In a few weeks we will have
none vacant.
