Late advices from Honoluln po that
within the past week there has been a
material change in the political condi-

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.

a saiLcru OPERATION. %
ia Tatbre pomieed from Mrs.
John King.
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.
