U. B. Bartlett was upheld in a decision
by the United States Circuit Court of
Appeals here today. The case involved
lands in controversy between the OXia-

land was inherited by Jack Gouge, a
Creek Indian, from his wife. Chunn
Gouge, and a deed was given to Bart-
lett in 1912. The Oklahoma Oil JCom-
pany contended a previous deed had
been given to the grantors of that eom

awaken and gasp for breath and my
arms and fingers become numb. Please
tell me what causes this and the cure.

The responsibility, the commissioner
says, should rest where it belongs. Ho
says the record clearly proves that such
responsibility must rest upon the Texas
railroads. He charges the railroads
have been playing the game according
to the “heads I win and tails you lose"
plan.
'■'The Texas Commission has endeav-
ored to be fair to the carriers,” he con-
tinued, "and had even thought it ha
been liberal, but It appears that the
carriers have not thought so and the
Texas commission is to be made the
target for attack in an effort on the
part of the railroads to wring unjust
and unreasonable transportation
charges out of the pockets of the
people of Texas, and for my part I am
frank to say that I proposed that the
Texas commisslon wipe the slate clean
and meet the attack in the manner it
deserves to be met.
•lhere is going to be long and ex:
pensive 11tigation: confusion win exist
as to what are the proper rates and
commercial conditions will be greatly
disturbed. The Texas commission
sought to avoid hat very situation and
went more than half way to meet th®
exigencies of the case. Let the respon:
sibility rest where it should—on the
shoulders of the Texas railroads."

BY DR. L. K. HIRSHBERG.
A. I, M. A., M. D. (Johns Hopkins.)
So many persons have the symptoms
of appendicitis long after their appen-
dix has been removed that it is high
time to discover what it is which pro-
duces "false” appendicitis. In this
connection Dr. F. . Connell of Osh-
kosh, Wis, has carried out a timely
bit of research.
When a patient exhibits the same
signs and symptoms after an opera-
tion for appendicitis ns before, there
are grounds to suspect something else,
such as gallstones or what not. Among
other maladies which may present
pseudo-appendicitis symptoms are ul-
cere of the stomach, ulcers of the up-
per end of the intestines, called duo-
denal Ulcers, Inflamed gall bladder, an
inflamed pancreas, disorders of the
kidneys and bladder, stones in the
ureters—the channels from the kidneys
to the bladder—cancer, tuberculosis,
bone and joint disorders and other
irregularities.
Dr. Connell collected from medical
records data of efghty-sven cases in
which the removal of the appendix for
so-called long standihg, chrono ap-
pendicitis was followed by no relief
or little change in the symptoms.
There is approximately one case of
pseudo-appendicitis in every four In-
stances of real appendicitis. It is not
that the operation was hasty or need-
lessly done—not at all. The operations
for acute, aagerous appendicitis al-
ways proved to bo correct
Thin Persons Susceptible.
It was, however, in the chronic vic-
tims—those who suffered repeated- at-
tacks—that the operations were need-
lessly performed for appendicitis. Au
operation was, however, necessary in
nearly all cases, but for some other
serious ailment than appendicitis.
--Dr.Connell found that pseudo-ap-
pendtoltis occurs usually in thin per-
sons between the ages of 15 and 30.
, Ho found also that it is more frequent
in young women than in men.

In a statement given out today by

Time was when to play golf was regarded as
an indication of wealth and exclusiveness. Th
ordinary human being might be interested in base-
ball or football and chase out to see a game after
working hours, but golf was expensive; it meant
the expenditure of time as well as money. There-
fore it was regarded, by those who did not play,
as essentially a game for highbrows. The plain
people were not interested in it.
But times have changed. Yesterday at Phila-
delphia 6000 people saw the match between Evans
and Gardner for the National amateur golf cham-
pionship. When it is remembered what watching
a golf game means, this was a tremendous attend-
ance. Any game which attracts a gallery of 6000
people, a gallery which follows the players about,
may be regarded as popular. There are not 6000
really, truly “highbrows” even in Philadelphia,
end it may safely be said that in that vast gallery
were quite a number of ordinary folk—to bo ono
of 6000 is killing to exclusiveness, anyhow. The
interest in the match was nation-wide and tho
press associations carried long stories about it.
All of which means that another possession of the
classes has been taken away. Just as all kinds of
people now own automobiles and belong to clubs,
so all kinds of people know all about golf, and a
great many of them play it.
The “upper ten” must find another game to bo
really exclusive and frigidly lonesome, for the hat
