Remarkable Surgical Operation.

Drs. John 5. Mahon and W. VI.
Heron, Of Allegheny, performed
the novel operation Of Inhalation on

son Of the pastor OF the Smithlield

fellow was suffering from diphtheria
and could hardly breathe. The
mouth Of the patient was distended
by n gag, which also dilated the
throat. a cone shaped silver tube
was then inserted I'm the wludpipe,
hsi: so placed as not 10 interfere with

permitting the cold air 10 enter the

means the limitations are warmed

UNNECESSARY EXPENSE.

UNDER the auspices and at the ex-
Pense Of the general government,
the Inhabitants Of this city will be
counted next month. Why, then,
should the City Council appoint
enumerators to do the same thing at
substantially the same tins? 1t is
necessary to check the governments
count? Cannot United States
census marshals be relied upon TO

were to plane the under side OF a
barn floor, the expense of the extra

which taxpayers might properly
view the $3.50 20 81 per day to be
paid to the enumerators appointed
by the City Council on Tuesday
evening. That is the range Of wages
the government pays, and probably
the city will pay no less.
City Attorney Merritt, in speak
ing upon the subject Of improving
the Tenth Ward Square, expressed,
in the same breath, the opinion that
the conditions Of the trust by which

had been complied with, but that a

AND LABOR TROUBLES.

The following is taken lroni an

This was the theme OF Rev. Robert

in Chicago on Sunday last. The ser

and what they accomplish from a
man who was born poor, and who
toiledil IS factory hand and as brick
mason for fourteen years. who be-
longed 10 labor organizations, and who
personally wtnt out or three different

"In answer TO the question, 'wha:

he did no; believe strikes accom-

the problem 1t hurts labor more
than capital. "A strike is like an old
