He Lacks Backbone
\IcKeeSport, Pa, Oct. 27.—There is
a man in the hospital in this city who
was caught by a fall of slate in a coal
mine up the river more than threr
months ago. .,
His back was broken, three ribs
were. cracked, he had a scalp wound
and suffered injuries to his arms and
legs.
His name is Patrick Knee. He is
about fifty years of age. He is pos—
sessed of wonderful vitality, as his be-
in galive to-day demonstrates. When
admitted to the hospital his death was
considered a question of a short time.
Dr. Thomas F. Nason was placed in
charge of the case. The lower part of
Knee's body was completely paralyzed
tempt to save Knee’s life, and an op--
eration was performed. A section of
the bones of the back which were bro-
cord, was removed, and after the oper-
ation to the surprise of everybody, the
patient began to grow strong and re-
. gain his vigor.
Unusual interest was taken in the
case because it was a very rare one.
Knee is' now able to get up. He can-
not stgnd alone as yet, but sits in a
\\ heeled chair and can “heel himself
about.
Dr. Nason says it is one of the very
few cases on record of recovery from
a broken back.
_ The doctor feels confident Knee will
be able ,to be around again in the
course of a. short time.

'VHh?" the'IMarri'ag‘e Knot fsTled.
In India, only, of all the countries in
the world, is the” ‘much-talked-of mar-
riage knot ever actually tied. Among
the Brahmins marriage is a matter of
purchase, and the - would-be bride-
groom is liable- almost till the laSt' mo-
ment to be ousted by a higher bidde1;
but, if no suitor appears willing to
give the father a more valuable pres-
ent, he leads his daughter to the first '
to offer himself, saying:——
“I have no longer anything to do
with you; I give you up to the powei
of anothe1. ” ..,
Then the bridegroom laces the tall,
the insignia of marriage, around her
neck, and secures it with a knot. The
tall conSists of :1 piece of ribbon with
a gold bead suspended upon it. The -
knot it is that legally binds the wife
to her husband and makes the mar- -
riageindissoluble, for Brahmins do not
recognize divorce.
