housemaid at the home of Frank An
derson, on the eastern limits of the
city, started for the Junction to inter

ing across a vacant lot she heard the
bellowing of a big bull.
One glance was sufficient to warn
Miss Fair that she was the object of
atraction of the maddened animal. The
terrified woman fled toward the rail
way track, with the enraged beast not
more than 50 yards behind her.
The Interurban car at this moment
shot around the curve, but a short dis

to see the young woman's danger and,

sohn has resorted to the heroic opera
tion of permitting 24 square inches of
skin to be grafted from her own body
to the left cheek and left wrist of the
little girl.
Captain Lawrence C. Phillips, father
of 9-year-old Edwin Phillips, the other
child who was badly burned in the same
Bre, expects soon to undergo a skin-
grafting operation for his son.
These were the most serious cases re
sulting from the Irvington Are. in which
eight other children were more or less
severely burned.
Zelda Mosessohn was operated on
three weeks ago. but the skin on that
occasion was taken from her own body.
This operation did not prove entirely
successful, and another grafting was
undertaken at St. Vincent's Hospital
Tuesday by Drs. Tilzer and Sabin. Both
the mother and the child were resting
comfortably last eight.
The Phillips boy has been recovering
slowly and has been suffering consider
able pain. Recently, however, he has
been gaining strength, and his father
s waiting until he is strong enough to
withstand the grafting operation. Then
he will be taken to a hospital and given
the same treatment as that applied to
the Mosessohn girl.

from the poisoning are almost entirely
confined to sheep. Nausea, muscular
weakness and coma are some of the
principal symptoms of the poisoning.
There is no satisfactory medical remedy
but affected livestock, if kept quiet for
some time, will often recover,
The death camas (Zygadenus) is most
dangerous early in the season, not be
cause the plant is more poisonous at
that time, but because it is more likely
to be eaten at that time when other
forage is dry. Later, sheep are less
likely to eat a large quantity because
of the greater abundance of other food
As a matter of fact, most of the cases
of extensive poisoning have occurred
before the flowering of the plant, which
occurs in the late Spring.
It is Impossible to make even an ap
proximate estimate of the losses of
sheep because of the Zygadenus, but it
is certain that they are very large. In
vestigations have led specialists to be
lieve that many of the losses in Ore

ascribed fo other poisonous plants were
really caused by the death camas, and
