HOLE IN WAN’S
HEART PLUGGED
ACCOUNT OF A REMARKABLE
CASE GIVEN BY THE
OPERATING DOCTOR
Recently, E. H. Fisk of Helena.
Mont., shot himself through the
heart, and was taken to the hospit
al where the doctor Dlugged the
hole >n the heart and the man is
reported to be recovering. Dr.
Still who cared for the man gave
out the following account:
“The shirt and undershirt were
cut away from the chest and the
skin immediately sterilixed with
pure carbolic acid washed off with
alcohol. The patient gasped a few
times after being laid on the table,
but apparently was dead. No pulse
could be felt either in the wrist or
neck.
“I made the remark that there
wasn't much use operating on a
corpse and then added that he
wouldn't be any deader if we had
a good look at the wound inside.
I immediately opened the chest bet
ween the fourth and fifth ribs for
about four inches, the bullet hole
being in the middle of the wound,
which was in the intercostal space
below the rib near the nipple, a
little inside. The wound exposed
a hole in the pericardium, which
was distended with blood. I split
the percardinum and let out a lot
of blood clot. This exposed the
hole in the heart.
“The instant I took hold of the
heart it began to beat. With my
index finger I twisted the tissue of
theheart wail so as to plug the
hole in the heart, then removed
the remaining clots in the heart sac
cr pericardium.
“From then on the pulse picked
up. but all the time I was sewing
up the wounds and while the nurse
was administering a gallon of nor
mal salt solution, he did not re
gain consciousness. The normal
salt solution was to replace the lost
blood and counteract the shock.
“He did not regain conscious
ness until some time after he had
been in bed, and it was two or
three days before he was totally
rational. r sysyyl
“The pulse steadily improved un
til after three days it was normal.
He ran a little fever during the
first week. His temperature was
practically normal for the next
two weeks, and on Dec. 27 he left
the hospital apparently alright.
“The bullet which had gone thru
the body and lodged in the tissues
under the skin between the tenth
and eleventh ribs on the right side,
was removed Dec. 21. It was
perfectly shaped. The end of it
showed the imprint of his shirt
where it struck before enterng the
body. The sides showed the marks
of revolver riflings. It had mis
sed the ribs going in and showed
no bone marks. It must have tra
versed a lip of the lung, the heart
and the liver.
“It went thru the heart near
the center. It must have barely
missed the largest vein in the body,
vena cava, and a little farther to
the right would have caught the
thin part of the heart and the pul
monary vessels; a little farener to
£he left, the aorta, the main artery
'o' the body. The bullet was an
eld style one of lead.

I BODES’ REPORTS WEATHER
HARD FOR SEA PRODUCT
(Juneau Empire)
Henry Roden returned last night
from Glacier Bay where he has
been examining mining property.
He reports that during th* recent
could weather ducks by t‘-,e hund
red were frozen to death along the
bays and sloughs of Icy Straits.
The ducks would get caught by the
ice forming on top of the water
and would be unable to extract
themselves. He also reports that
clams by the thousands have fro
zen. Clams in the sand between
the high and low tide marks would
be frozen solid while the tide was
low.

THERE ARE QUEER PEOPLE
IX THIS WORLD
Because he is a fatalist, E. C.
Rogers, of Walla Walla, Wash., a
widower withfour children, is in
the penitentiary under a sentence
of from two to twenty-five years,
imposed under a plea of guilty of
S grand larcency.
In his statement, according to
the report, he made recently, Rog
ers says in part:
“To the end that I might know
how long I shall live, that I might
have everything in the best pos
sible condition for them when I
passout of this life, I have several
! times consulted persons who claim
to be able to read the future. Some
1 of these things pointed out to me
have actually happened. For ex
; ample, I was told that I would re
ceive a gun shot that- would be
l nearly fatal from loss of blood and
bleed poisoning. The prophecy
came true. A shotgun exploded
in my hands, inflicting a bad wound
I was alone at the time, four miles
distant from any one, yet I was
able to save myself. Blood pois
oning set in and was successfully
treated.
“I was told a cycle of my life
; included a large jail. This inter
ested me; my ife had been such
; that I could not believe it. I
guided my actions closely -on ac
count of my boys. I went to other
clairvoyants and mind reader for
verification. It was always the
same—I was to pass through a
large jail. It was to come into
my life. S0 I wanted to come
just as honorably as possible.
“I changed a shipment en route,
making it read P. J. Fransioli &
! Company, Seattle. I did not at
tempt to collect any money from
them. Had they offered me mon
: ey I would not have accepted it.
By this means I pass through a
large jail. I have harmed no one.
I am not disgraced. Xever will
the judge regret that he used his
good office to help me pass this
cycle of my life.’
Had Regers tried he might have
secured -?18,000 on his transaction.
As it was he was caught, pleaded
guilty to grand larceny and was
sentenced from two to twenty-five
years in the state penitentiary.

YOU CAN HYPNOTIZE
YOURSELF
A demonstration of hypnotism
by Prof. Myer, head of the psy
chology department at the Univer
sity of Missouri, shows recently
that hypnosis can be induced with
out the influence of a hypnotist.
Professor Myer hypnotized stud
ents by having them gaze fixedly
at a bright object with no sound
to distract their attention.
Later he suggested that one hyp
notized student was an artist paint
ing a picture; another a wounded
' soldier home from the trenches;
still another an intoxicated diner
| out, and the students acted their
parts.
"Lee S. Eads, of Hamilton, Mo.,
