In noticing the operation performed
on Mrs. Stephen Mitchell OF Mill Greek

Of DR.. Smith Cooper was inad dvertently
used instead Of DR.. Peter Cooper, and
We should have said DR.. Negendank,
Jr., Of this city, and DR.. j. W. Cooper
OF ElktOn, were present instead Of two
physicians from Philadelphia, - was
also DR.. Quinby Of West Grove, Pa.
The lady was suffering from q multilo.
cular cyst Of the left ovary, an ovarian
tumor, wholly within the abdominal
cavity. The operation was not csrried
beyond the exploratory abdominal In.
cistons, because of the many and exten'
sive adhesions of the tumor to the other
organs, the left kidney, the intestines
and abdominal walls. The incision has
healed, and the patient lie

remark that conservatism in operations,
of this character forbids pushing the
same points of safety, and hence the
course adopted In this case. We make
the above explanation out of justice TO
the physicians mentioned.

What u Lancaster Cow Did.

On Thursday, Assessor Vondersmith,
of Lancaster, Pa, went out 10 Mill
Creek to fish for bait. Throwing off
his COAT, vest and trousers, and pulling
on pair OF overalls, he waded into
the stream with scoop net and soon
had the satisfaction of securing a nice
lot of little fish and crabs, with which
he returned to shore. He then looked
for his clothing but could not find It.
Believing that some theiving tramp
had stolen 1t, he started along the bank
of the creek in pursuit. He had not
gone far before he saw COW leisurely
chewing the cud. She had entirely de-
voured his seersucker coat and vest,
had got through with one leg of his
rousers and was making vigorous
attack on the other when she was dis
covered. She had tried to make cud
of his tin tobacco-box, and the marks
of her teeth had indented 1t In a dozen
places, but she gave up the attempt to
swallow 1t. Jere feels happy that he
saved his overalls, as he would have
had an awkward time getting home
without them.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 4, 1886 Yes
terday was probably the grandest day
ever witnessed by the people of San
Francisco. During the previous day
MondAy-comrades had continued to
arrive from the East, and the people
from the surrounding country were
pouring in by thousands to witness the
grand parade Of yesterday.
1 heard many remarks that tho route
was an unusually long one, and that
the procession was the largest and
grandest ever witnessed here, surpsss-
ing even that Of the knight Templars
which took place three years ago. The
route of the parade WAS crowded with
most Of the two hundred and thirty
thousand residents of the city, aue-
mented for the occasion by the thou
sands Of visitors from outside, who
were all enthusiastic in their demon.
strations OF applause as the old veter-
ans OF the late war, from all parts Of
our country, with flags ind icating the
State they represented, made their ap.
pearance.
The procet sionl was composed first Of
several detachments OF u. 8 Infantry
and artillery, followed 10y the volunteer
militia Of California, composed of sew
eral thousands OF infantry, cavalry and
artillery, then came posts and com.
rades Of the Department Of California,
followed by the visiting comrades from
other States. Among the prom inent
men In carriages were Generals Sher-
man and Logan, who were received
with enthusiastic applause all along
the line. Our department turned out
8 men, and many were the cheers for
little Delaware.
In the evening Market street, which
is very wide, was crowded with
spectators 10 witness the grand
display of fireworks given by
several olubs-includinR the famous
Lincoln Post FlambeAn club of Topeka
who mar ched to the pavilion, which
was crowded with from IL, coo to 20 600
people, who gave grand reception to
the commander in chief ci the g. A. II.
and Generals Sherman aud Logan.
Although the streets were packed
with people every body seemed to be in
good humor, and pressed alor & patiently
with the crowd TO witness the day pa
rade. Along one part of the line the
side walk was packed for several squares
with thousands Of Cinnamon, who
were dressed in their holiday attire and
showed great interest in the procession.
The day was declared legal holiday
by the Governor, and all places OF busi-
ness, except restaurants, saloons, etc..
were closed. d. Ross.
