The popularity of the Pabst beer
is due to the fact that it has no
trace of resinous matter that is
usually found in beer. Pabst is
absolutely free from any deleteri-
Gus matter and may be taken with
as much safety and beneficial re-

Ann Taken Off.

The doctors yesterday amputated the
left arm of Capt. w. A. Darden. Capt.
Dardon hurt his hand some two weeks
ago and it resulted in erysipilas or
blood poisoning. Every effort was en-
ployed to save his arm but it was at
last determined that it must needs be
amputated. 1t is very doubtful if
Capt. Darden can survive the operation.
He is in a critical condition. The
surgery was successfully performed by
Drs. Broyles, E. S. Miller and other
eminent physicians yesterday morning.
