FRIDAY
A REMARKABLE OPERATION

The DEMOCRAT has already mentioned
the operation recently performed by DIR G
w Msstoa Of this city. assisted By DR.
Frank Canthorn, Of Portland, upon the
person of M r Taylor. Of Corvallis. The
operation was performed at the Portland
Hospital one week ago yesterday. TIE
case is one that deserves mere than a mere
mention, for the operation was one of the
most wonderful on the Pacific Coast and
probably not excelled in extent in the
United States. DIR Maston returned last
night from Portland, where be had been
and had removed the stitches from the
wound, and left Mr. Taylor in excellent con-
dition, happy at so favorable resul. after
80 desperate an operation. He brought
with him the tnmor that caused the trouble
and the resscted intestine attached, sight
Of which only increases ones surprise at the
successful termination of the operation.
The editor Of the DEMOCRAT assisted in
measuring the intestine. done with stout
tape. and SAW the figures showing the
length Of intestine SsmSved. 4Aa{ inches,
instead es 81 sneiits as repcftea. After
measuring. the intestine was inflated show
ing the true situation and relative positions
of tumor and intestine, and verifying the
idet oI tne lmpoSslbiflIy OF removing Tue
growth alone. The whole will be placed
in alcohol to preserve it and it will always
speak for itseif in connection with the
operation. The care was DIR Masion's and
the operation was performed by him,
assisted by DIR Frank Cauthorn, If Port
land. The work was done in the presence
Of several surgeons Of Portland and the
Senior Glass Of the medical department Of
the Willamette University. This opera
tion reflects great credit on the surgeons
performing 1t, and the DgMocRAr takes
great pride in giving the faets in the case.

Mail adviees received in Philadelphia Of
fer an entirely different explanation of
the sinking of the Spanish war ship Bar
castegui from that given in the dispatches
from Havana telling of the disaster.
The cruiser, it will be remembered sunk
in the harbor of Havana last Wednesday
night and forty-six persons, including an
admiral and the commander of the ship,
went down with her. The dispatches said
she had collied with a merchants vesesl.
and had thus sustained her fatal inju-
ries. She sank almost Immediately, and
many members of the crew were drawn in
to the vortex created by the great mass
of iron and steel as it went down.
The letters received in Philadelphia say
there was no collision, other than col
lision between the cruiser and a Cuban
torpedo; that as a matter of fact she fell
a victim to a well-planned attack by lit
tie torpedo boat, the invention of an Amer
lean, and that the little boat had been
watching for her for some days. The
merchant ship Moreta, according to the
dispatches, was the craft that gave the
cruiser the death blow According to the
letters. the merchantmen merely CHANGED
to be near at the time the torpedo ex-
ploded and was slightly damaged, and
was not connected in any other manner
with the sinking of the cruiser
The story is plausible; at the same time
it would be better to take it with grain
of salt 1t is plausible because it is
known that the Cubans have in their serv-
ice some experts in the use of high explo-
sives, who have recently been very active
in blowing up railway tracks and bridges.
1t will be remembered also that in the har-
Dor of Valparaiso during the Chilean war,
and later off the Yalu river in the war
between China and Japan, the most fear
full execution of both men and ships was
done by torpedoes. 1t can be understood.
therefore that a properly manipulated
torpedo would have done for the Spanish
cruiser what it is alleged a .colliding
ship did.
Whatever it was that struck the Bar
castegui, she seems to have been broken
with comparatively as much ease as an
egg shell, and to have gone TO the bottom
almost instantly. Sailors that sprang in
to the water were sucked into the whirl-
pool she made, If a lightly constructed
merchant vessel can crush the sides of a
protected war vessel with such ease, and
send her to the bottom with such light
ning-like dispatch. what will be the result
when the ponderous battle ships bear down
at express train speed upon and ram
their antagonists? VIII there be

A Good Pnrrot story.

ably the most expensive and al the same
time the most remarkable parrot in the
United States for a period OF three days,
said r. X Lee to the Washington Post
This bird once belonged TO LuSby, the
lightning circus ticket seller. II passed
into the possession of a friend OF mine
after Lusby's death, and he owned him
for some time. This friend owed me $500,
and came to me short time ago offering
to give me this parrot for the debt.
Take him home he said, and if af-
ter a weeks trial you think the parrot

things this bird of gaudy plumage and wit
said TO the wife was, For God ; sake,
madame, don't ask If Polly wants a

of mental acumen that you'll admit TO be
rare in men, let alone birds; but this is no
marker to what this bird can do. If L

rot, while Lusby was living used to occu-
by a place in the ticket wagon, near his
master. Lusby had a record of selling
10000 tickets anahOur. He used to call out
to the crowd, one at a time, gentlemen,

became very familiar with this express

1t happened in Suffolk, down the river
Lusby was there with his circus and lost

He sought everywhere for him. Some
body said the bird had been seen in the
outskirts of town. and thitner Lusby start
ed to hunt for him After long search
he heard a familiar sound. 1t was the
parrot. Two chicken hawks had jumped
upon him and had torn out nearly all his
feathers. The parrot was on his back de-

Robbers Aided by a Horse.

one day 1t was necessary that I should go

W hen had nearly reached the woods,
