Sktliful Surgery.
From the Washington. Post.

From the Washinstoa Post.
The startling rumor of Justice Miller's
dangerous condition yesterday caused
much excitement and an almost constant
stream of callers at bis residence. The
truth is that the gentleman has under
gone an operation, known among sur
geons as capital one, but was, at late
hour last evening, doing better even than
could be hoped or expected. He had
been suffering for considerable time
with stones in the bladder, and though
the family physician DR.. J. G. Riley, had
done all for the case that lay in the ply
sician's power, it lately became evident
that radical means would have to be
adopted to effect cure.
After much consultation and CORE
spondence the Justice deter mined to sub
init to an operation at the hands of DR.. A.
P. Smith, of Baltimore. Jud re Miller at
one time contemplated going to England
to place himself under the care Of Sir
Henry Thompson, who operated on Ma
poleon III but on comparing records
found that while DR.. Thompson Lost
about one out Of every twelve cases
DR.. Smith had made fifty-thrce entirely
successful operations without losing q
case Accordingly, on Saturday at 1
o'clock Drs. A. P. Smith, J. c. Riley, N
$. Lincoln and j. s. Beale assembled in
the patients bedroom. and after DR.. Ri
ley had obtained complete anasthesis by
means Of chloroform and ether, the later.
al operation Of lithotomy was performed
by DR.. Smith, assisted by other physi.
clans. Mr.. Miller was quickly restored
to consciousness. and bore the subsequent
treatment with great fortitude. DR.. Smith
stayed with him all night. and left him
yesterday morning doing cxcellently.
The stone removed was as large as a
small hens egg.

The Man Of the Southwest.

From Edward Kings sketches.
The Southwestern man is usually large
in stature, sinewy yet spare of frame, and
nature has favored him with manly and
graceful bearing. There is freedom in
his walk and p:cturesqueness in his
speech which makes him marked man
the moment he ventures out OF his own
section. Perhaps only generation ago
he emigrated from New En- land or
Northern New York to Texas, or Ar.
kansas, OF Missouri, but the ichor in his
blood seems to have been changed in
that time; he is q new man. Even his
methods of thought are different. The
man of the Southwest possesses many of
the good and few Of the bad traits Of the
Southern character. The energy of the
West is always at hand to correct his
nature when it seems liable to succumb
to the Incidence of the South. He abhors
the llstlessness which allows property to
go to decay, fences to rot, and lands to
become exhausted simply because the
owner is too lazy to arrest the downward
progress. After the war had passed he
sprang into an abnormal activity for tho
purpose of repairing the ravsges which
had occurred in the disastrous years. The
Southwestern has not made himself 80
we'll known as the Californian, but some
day he will be studied carefully, and will
afford richer material for the romancer
and the essayist than is to be found on
the Pacific Coast. :, -
