J A Story of the Future.
[Copyright, 1908. by Amorlcan Press As?o
\ elation.]
It was tlfty years ago, in 190S,- that
(lit* tlrst experiment!! lu transplanting
organs of the lower animal* were
made ami made successfully. It was
then announced by one vlvlsectlonlst
that he had transplanted dogs' heads
with preservation of cerebral and
bulbar function.
During the decade that followed this
discovery the technlquo Involved In
transplanting the head of one dog to
the body of another was very much
Improved, and surgical scientists be
gan to covet an opportunity to try the
experiment upon men. But It was not
until 1915 that Dr. Therapeutus Scalpel
succeeded In obtaining the requisite
human subjects. The courts that had
sentenced two murderers to be electro
cuted consented that they should In
stead be decapitated by Dr. Scalpel
with a view t?' an exchange of heads.
The prisoners gladly consented becauso
they would have a chance to live again,
though under a swapped ideutlty.
Patrick Flanagan and Gottlieb Shu
man were the subjects. Dr. Scalpcl
before making the experiment spent
three months in educating an eminent
vivlsectionlst and four young physi
cians' to assist him. Just before the
heads were severed the last rights of
the church were administered to the
convicts, after which they were placed
on operating tables side by side.
The |H>rlod of occlusion (shutting off
the circulation* was but twenty min
utes. This brought It within the limit
of time necessary to prevent coagula
tion. During this period each head
was removed <rom the body, trans
planted, the arteries, muscles and
nerves suturated. the i>olnt of cutting
of the spinal chord being esi>eclally
carefully adjusted.
Suspended animation returned a9
soon as the anaesthetic began to lose
Its effect, and within a few hours Dr.
Scalpel began to feel that the experi
ment had been successful. But It was
ten weeks before the patients were
Ol'.cnurged.
Cp to this time II had been supposed
? jat the Individuality of a person was
L'olely lu the brain. The case of Flan
agan and Shumau demonstrated that,
though tills is partially correct, it Is
not entirely so. Flanagan on the day
of his discharge hended straight for a
saloon and shouted to the barkeeper,
"Ye spalpeen, gimme"? he hesitated
and Instead of calling for a glass of
whisky finished? "eln glass beer." Shu
mau, who followed him iuto the place,
succeeded lu correctly giving an order
for whisky, bui the barkeeper, being
Inattentive or thinking he said beer,
Lauded lfTnj a glass of that beverage,
whereupon he berated the Teuton.
"What d'ye inane, ye heathen? Fou
glass vlsky. 1 said, uud a sweitzer case
sandvich."
lie IV Flanagan? that Is, 1'ianagaus
body with Shuiuun's head on It? took
a baud. Turulug to Shumau's body
with bis own (Flanagan's) bead, bo
growled:
"And It is the likes of ye 'a that's
poklu' fuu at the Irish race by nilxin'
wid its litigant talk yer beastly Dntch
sprekeu? *Jott in blrnmel! Vas y'
mean?"
Sbutnau's Dutch body (Irish bead)
retorted:
"Melu friend, 1 kilt dat utan uilt u
bainuier. If you say auother wort, ye
murtlierlu' Irishman, Ol'll wash yer '
Dutch head wld dot beer glass!"
Flanagan's Irish body (Dutch head)
looked at his companion'^ Hibernian
features contemptuously.
"So y* killed him wld a hammer, did
ye? I spoilt my man's skull wld a
sthlck lackcu a Hltillalah. Git out mit
yourself!"
Iteachlug over the bar, be seized a
stone pitcher, his enemy meanwhile
raising a beer glass. Then the two
drew apart, each poislug his weapou
and glancing at the other.
Dr. Scalpel <>n discharging his pa
tients (so to speak) had directed one
of bis assistants to follow them to
watch their movements, notice their
Idiosyncrasies and report to htm. At
this Juncture the shadower rushed
Into tbe doctor's vivisecting room and
excitedly Informed him that the men
were ijuarrellug In a mixture of Hi
bernian aud German aud be feared
they would do each other bodily harm.
Dr. Scalpel, feeling that some of the
reunited parts might not yet bare
sufficiently healed t<> warrant a scrim
mage, seized his bat and rushed out
with the Informer to the saloon. He
fouud the Irish body dauclug around
with the true motions of an angered
Hibernian, Its serious German face
scowling, the lips occasionally mutter
lug lu the German language. The
German body was standing stolidly
In one place, Its Irish face lighted with
enmity, the lips injuring forth a tor
rent of abuse In Its native parlance.
"HI, you two! Stop this!" cried the
doctor. "If you throw those weapons
I'll not be responsible for the conse
quences. The severed parts haven't yet
had time to strengthen."
He was too late. The stoue pitcher
and the beer mug exchanged positions,
each striking a head. The Hibernian
emuluiu rolled 011 the floor, the Ger
man head toppled and hung suspended
by such muscles as had flrmly knit.
Doctor Scalpel surveyed this finale
of his work with disappointment. He
had proved that the transplanting
could 1k? successfully accomplished In
the c-Hse of human beings, but only a
tithe of the effect upon the individu
ality had been determined. However,
It had been demonstrated that the
brain Is not all of the Individual. At
any rate. It Is Influenced by the rest
of the bogy, which is not only a me
chanical contrivance, but a living
