Mrs. w. II. s. Bedwcll has been ailic-
ted with tumor growing Immediately
under the right arm for six months, and

results. Drs. j. ID. Holmes and A. L..
Brooks performed the operation Mon
day forenoon, and it proved most sue
cessful, 50 that the patient is rapidly
recovering from the effect. In the com

success of the very heroic treatment.
The city election is the next subject
for the attention of local patriots.
Mayor Armstrong has been a most eff

will, we presume, be given second
term. The retiring members of the
council are Messrs. w. III. Scott and c.
II. Russell. The latter has served but
one term, is good officer, and will be
reelected. Mr.. Scott is the pioneer
member of that body and is considered
one of its most able connselors. A
great many will be pleased to see him
reelected, if he will consent to run.
Unless unlocked for circumstances shall
occur the municipal election will be but
a formal endorsement of present eflici-
ent officials.
