Boston, April 6. Ralph W. Bartlett, "a young lawyer of this city, has invented an apparatus for the reduction of congenital hip disease which the local surgeons say is far in advance of the Lorenz method.

Mr. Bartlett had It tried on his own little daughter at the Childrens' hospital. The child suffered from a severe case of congenital dislocation, and the results would seem to fully have tested the efficacy of the Invention. The machine consists of a sort of easy chair, In which the patient sits. The seat is something like a bicycle saddle, in which the feet hang, clear.

The limb to be set is attached by straps to a movable rod, which is worked by a powerful leverage. The effect is exactly like pulling a nail with a draw hammer, the child's leg In this case being the nail. The great point gained is the doing away of the wrenching and straining of muscles andligaments, which is Inseparable from Dr. Lorenz's manipulations. This force is applied directly and solely to the seat of the trouble.

The apparatus may be adopted in a more or less modified form in the Boston hospitals. 1 Killed a "Peeping; torn." Akron, April 6. Mrs. Susan Updike was placed In jail here charged with causing the death of Andrew Fasnacht. Mrs.
