a PAINLESS OPERATION.

DR.. Moore Makes the Cross-eyes Of q
Young Savannahlan Straight.
There has been much said about DR.. J,
Harvey Moore, the specialist from Penn
sylvania, and his wonderful ability in the
treatment of the diseases Of which he makes
specially. Papers from all parts OF that
state have contained words of praise for
him. He no longer needs the testimony of
strangers in Savannah, for before be had
fairly opened his Office here yesterday. he
practically demonstrated that he Justly de-
serves the praise so lavishly bestowed upon
him, by the successful operation he per-
formed of making the cross-eyes of Jesse B.
Mitchell straight by his "paiuless method"
This young man resides corner OFT and
Gwinnett streets and works at the Savan-
nah cotton mills. The doctor made his eyes
perfectly straight without the least pain,
though neither ether nor chloroform were
used. He was told not TO tie up his eyes nor
need he remain indoors. This is certainly a
vast improvement on the sold methodn
(which is even now practiced by most eve
surgeons), where patients are given ether
or chloroform, which usually makes
them extremely sick. They are then kept
IN a dark room number OF days, then
when their eyes ere exposed to the light
they are so weak that dark glasses have to
be used for some time, and oftentimes after
all their suffering and confinement the re-
suit is not what was expected. The young
man operated on yesterday was born cross
eyed and his vision had become affected.
1t is fact that this is usually the case in
cross-eyes of a number of years standing.
Oftentimes the patients are not aware OF
defective vision until their eyes are tested =,
but If such would read fine print with one
eve, then close that and read with the other
they will invariably find the one the most
turned the poorer. and when made straight
by DR.. Moore's method always find that the
sight is greatly improved. The people of
Savannah and surrounding country are to
be congratulated on having access to a
physician and surgeon of such undoubted
ability as possessed Oy DR.. Aore.-ad.

Five Hours Aground Before Her Pes
senRers Knew IL.
The City Of Macon arrived at her dock
yesterday morning at IL O'Clock from Bos-
ton. She looked as bright as ever, and
showed no signs Of her little adventure on
Squash Meadow shoals, near Martha's Vine
yard.
Judging from the reports of the officers
and the passengers on the ship. the danger
Of the accident was greatly
exaggerated by the rumors. 1t
was l o'clock In the morning when the
chip, driven out OF her course by the masses
Of ice, touched bottom on the sand off
Squash Meadow.
None of the passengers knew Of it until
next morning, however. The ship rode
quietly in the sand until the tide rose and
foated her off. when she proceeded on her
way without trouble.
The report that the revenue cutter Dexter
cut her way through the ice and helped Off
the City Of Macon was incorrect. No assist
ance was received or required from the
Dexter or any other source. The passengers
showed their estimation Of Capt Lewis as
navigator by expressing their desire of re-
turning with him ON his next trip.
