KL'ltVIYKI) LOSS OF I.I NC. Truo Story olOp'Tatitm l ei lorried on ti. >V. Ferris, Special to Notti unil Courier Salada, November 25.?A moat remarkable ^example of modern surgical skill is to bo found in the person of Mr Hnwun) W Ferri-?, (if Batesburg, who to-day in living and in apparent good health notwithstanding that the whole of his right long is entire !y gone and portions of seven ribs have been removed as the result of an operation he underwent some time ago at Hohnoniann Hospital in the city of Philadelphia. Mr. Ferris is a young man of 30 years. Ho was horn in Ver mont and his father is a native of Connecticut. lie is the son of the Rev. Jabez Ferris, now pastor of the Baptist Church at Batesburg, and who formerly served the Camden Baptist Church for a number of years. The younger Mr. Ferris is already tired of the publicity which has been given to his illness and the marvellous operation which he underwent, yet in a short per. eonal interview with your correspondent he chatted freely and pleasantly. He is a young man of pleasing manners, wvll edu j cated and has travelled consider- J ably. He at one time served as' a reporter for one of the l'hila delphia papers and was after-j wards connected with a publish ltig house in that city. lie has many friends and acquaintances iu South Carolina, and is quite . well known, especially in the. eastern part of the State?around Camden. Speaking of the operation performed on him he said some "fairy tales" had been ''woven iu." Ua further said that the! operation performed on him was nothing new in the North. Trior to his illnesshe was working with a publishing house in Thiladel I phia. After his usual vacation i spent in Georgia he returned to the North in April. After the! first day spent in the office ho went out on the street without an overcoat. As soon as the cold 1 Kir BirucK mm ne said lie felt it go through him and pneumonia soon followed. That was in lf)03. After being treated for some time without any apparent relief lie went to the fiohncmann llospital. Here, despite all the medical skill and treatment, his case gradually grew worse. At last it was deemed necessary for his right lung to be tapped. To do this it was necessary to remove portions of two ribs. This was done and from time to time quarts, even gallons, of water were removed. Time went on and his case grew worse instead of better. Finally as a last resort the surgeons determinad to peform an "Eastlander operation." "This operation." said U- C II J mi. reiiiH, consisted in cutting and removing portions of seven ribs and not seven ribs in their entirety, as has been published in the press of the country, and, after that, the removal of the right lung, which was found to be almost a mass of corruption." The patient was kept alivo in the meantime by saline solutions injected in the arm. lie now experiences very little, if any, inconvenience from the operation, gave some soreness over the wound made in his side. Ilia appetite is good and ;he has about regained his normal weight. When asked for a statement il. , * * huuui, me miraculous operation he had undergone Mr. Ferris laughed and remarked : "There was very little to it," and added that he was "extremaly tired of the publicity it had received already." Although born and reared for the most part in the North and New England, at that, Mr. Ferris if fond of his adopted home and, like all other New Englanders, when they come South and learn something of the real situation, he feels, and did not hesitate to , ay so, "that if the people of the i North k now more about the negro J: n? he really is they won!'! have !?>r^ ( > a v n' vi1 ? ; m and leaVv th s' mi v *" *{jo much mooter negro pr?? t-> the only pontile on earth who can solve it?I lie people of tho South."

I was impressed with the thought presented in Genesis that there were giants in those ancient days. If Noah's sire and intellectual powers were proportioned, as his age, to ours, then in brain and brawn and stature he, too, must have been a giant. "God had those prehistoric giants erect those mighty pyramids, palaces and temples in tho valley of the Nile, and cover the palaces and temples with hieroglyphics to testify tor Him as signs and witnesses to the truthfulness of Bible history. This was done in the Valley ol tho Nile because there only were all natural conditions favorable for their preservation.
