 John Moon is in town again for medical treatment of the ears; few days since, young tarantula, which caused some abatement of pain, was removed from the right ear. Now, however, the pain has returned, and Moon is suffering much. His theory is that the tarantula seed got into his ear from hay, while teaming in the southern part of the Territory. Doctor Ainsworth will make an ex. animation to-day.
