INTERESTING SURGICAL OPERATION A few
days since we accompanied Dr. Leyman TO the
bedside of Mr.. Henry Stultz son of Mr.. John
Stultz, TO witness the operation OF tapping the
left side of the chest to allow the escape of pus
which seemingly had accumulated by the break
ing down of the cellular structures OF the left
lung The history OF this case, as We learn from
Dr. Leyman, is this: Mr.. StnlIz while in the
army. contracted severe cold. which settled on
the lungs. Unable 10 perform duty, he wa,
taken to the hospital, where he remained under
medical treatment for several months, when the
physicians decided that his case was hopeless
and he was sent home. He was Immediately
placed under the care of DR.. L., who at once
discovered that the left chest was unusually ex
banded, and concluded there was an abscess oil
puruleni matter in the cavity About three
weeks ago, an entrance was effected into the cav
ity of the lung with a trocar, and as the Doctor
had confidently expected, pus was found, which
evacuated to the extent of six pints week
subsequently the trocar was again inserted, and
twelve pnts of matter drawn from the cavity
On last Friday (the third time) fourteen pints o
pus were taken from the same place-makiug il
all four gallons. Upon probing, it was ascer

Secoud-That with the return OF peace, public

financial condition of the country. and especially
to the fact that by Congressional action, an at
