Late advices from Honoluln po that within the past week there has been a material change in the political condi- ‘tion of the Islands. Briefly it may be ued up by saying that the natives now coming out for annexation. Had the the natives been left to their own devices there never would have been any serious to the annexa- tion of Hawaii to the United States. The advocates of royalty have come If you want a bargain to the conclusion that all hope of restoration are passed and that it is | politic for them to acquiesce. with good | (grace. It is said {ilinoksalani has been advised of the facé that her restoration is impossible and that she will advocate | annexation of the island to the United | States in order fo receive some form of ‘bounty. It will be remembered that . under the treaty presented by the com- ‘missioners to President Harrison, Lilinokalani was to receive $20,000 a year in lien of her resignation of all fights to the throne.

Mrs. John King, of this place, was taken serionsly ill a fow weeks ago. Im. 8. W. Worrell was called to see her and recognized her trouble as cystic tumors, and he at once advised an operation. She decided being operated on at home in preference to going to a city hospital. She was at once put under a preparalory (reatment for a week to have her in good condi- tion to stand the shock. Last Tues : day being the day for the operation Dr. Rice, of Hastings, and Dr. Bennett, of Mahaffey, arrived op the early train - where they were met by Dr. Worrell The three named physicians went to the residence of Mr. King and pro- ceeded to remove the growths, which they found quite adherunt, baving grown fast to the intestines, bladder and abdominal walls, these conditions considered very unfavorable by the surgeons of to-day. The tumors were removed without any ‘kind of an accident and were about ‘the size of an ordinary man’s head. The operation extended over two hours and a haif. The operation which is called vail: anstomy was performed for the first time by Dr. McDowell, of Kentucky, and is therefore an example of the daring skill of an American surgeon. When the first case wns reported in England one of the leading medi- cal journals not only expressed its doubt that the operation had been per- formed, but expressed the belief that it never would be. _ This case is an exact counterpart, if not worse than the one lately reported in the COURIER of Mrs, J. J. Schimpf, | who died undergoing an operation in Philadelphia about two months ago. This is positive proof that the people “of Patton never need to go out of this surgery. Dr. Worrell reported to-day Mrs. King is comparatively out of danger, but will be confined to her bed is stocked completely With eiming » esa of samesation and as | fOr 8 couple of weeks yut. fresh goods and our prices are as low as the lowest. ie r & CO.

Bat | in the very brief history of Patton there has been an occasional event of sufficient pretentions, cheerfulness and | felicity to show that the citisPns are not unmindful of the pleasantness which comes to a community through social intercourse and the consequent cultivation of a friendly relation which ‘makes neighbors more aeighborly. One of the most noteworthy of thess | entertainments was given last Thurs-| day by Mr. and Mrs. 8.
