Last Friday a delecate surgical
operation was performed upon
Willie Alexander, the son of Mr..
and Mrs. w. H. Alexander, of this
place. The operation was performed
at the Good Samaritan hospital in
Portland. AS stated in this paper
before, Willie had suffered fracture
of the skull some years ago. The
doctors opened this old wound, and
found that the skull had never
properly knit, and that secretion
had been deposited next to the
brain, which at times compressed
that organ and caused illness.
This secretion was removed and the
wound properly attended to. The
patient withstood the shock Of the
operation very well, and the last
news received by his folks here
indicate that his recovery will be
rapid and the relief permanent.

FIFTEEN PASSENGERS ARE INJURED
Collision Between a Freight and Pass
euger Train and Its Result.

eUkeT Train ana ltS hSS uH.
Hannibal, Mo-, Feb 9.-Fifteen per-
sons were more or less seriously hurt
and one can not recover as the result
of collision at 1910 o'clock this after
noon between an eastbound Wabash
stock train and a st. Louis, Keokuk &
Northwestern passenger train coming
south.
The collision occurred near tunnel,
one mile north of this city.
The stock train, which had just en-
erged from the tunnel struck the pass
enger train, crushing in the side of
the ladies' coach and throwing it over
an embankment almost into the Missis-
sippi river
There were Is passengers in the coach
and that none were killed is a miracu-
lous fact.
They were more or less bruised, but
only the following were hurt seriously:
H. f. Hudwell, st. Paul, arm crushed.
Miss Eva Petit, Hannibal, Mo-, eye
badly cut.
Miss M. Whitley, Quincy, Ill, hip
fractured; recovery doubtful.
]. c. Cohen, stock man of Minneapolis,
head cut.
Mrs. Triester and son, Hannibal, both
cut about the head
d. c. Webster, engineer of Wabash
train, badly hurt.
The responsibility of the collision is
said to rest with the engineer of the
Wabash train. He did not stop as the
law and instructions require before ap-
preaching the crossing.

representatives OF Foreign Nations De-
cline to Help Celebrate.
San Francisco, Feb. 9.-The steamer
Australia arrived today from Honolulu,
bringing the following correspondence
to the Associated Press:
Honolulu, Feb. 1.-The 18th of Janu-
airy having been declared a national
holiday, invitations to take part We're
sent in the usual way to the diplomatic
and consular corps. Favorable replies
were received from all but the repre-
sentatlves of the United States Eng
land, Japan and France.
OF these representatives the three last
stated, in their replies to this govern
nent, that as their governments had
never recognized the provisional gov
eminent, and as the holiday was given
in celebration of the formation of that
government, they did not feel it incum-
bent upon them to in any way partici-
pate.
Willis replied stating that he would
lay the matter before Secretary Olney.
Minister Cooper denies the statements
published in the San Francisco papers
regarding his recent visit to Hawaii.
His trip to Hilo was simply in conform
ity with the policy of the government.
There was nothing in the rumors of Sc
cession of the people on the big island
to call for visit of any member of the
government to Hilo.
The Legislature will meet on the 10th
| inst. Many important questions will be
considered, the Asiatic question being
one. Chinese and Japanese We're orig
| inally brought here to work on planta-
| tons, but at the expiration of their
contracts many of them drifted into
| Honolulu and engaged in pursuits di-
rectly in competition with white me-
chanics and merchants. This competi-
ton is commencing to be felt very keen
| ly.
The U. S. S. Boston arrived on the
| Goth, Is days from San Francisco. She
will remain here 10 days and then leave
