TO BE OPERATED UPON.
Bullet to be Removed From Mr..
Eugene Ewing Next Thursday.

With the story of the location of the
bullet In the body of Mr.. Eugene Ewing
by the wonderful X rays, our readers are
familiar. The successful experiment of the
x rays In locating the bullet that had
been hidden in his body for twenty-three
years has caused extensive attention from
the medical profession OF the country.
When the bullet was located an operation
was decided upon but it was postponed
until cooler weather. Thursday Judge
William Young went to Kansas City and
made arrangements for the operation. As
a consequence Mr.. Ewing will be taken TO
Kansas City next Thursday and the bullet
will be removed.
The operation will not be a difficult one,
aud it 10 thought that when the bullet is
removed that Mr.. Ewing may be able to
both zee and walk, neither of which he
has been able to do for many years.
The INTELLIaENOER joins with the
entire community in the hope that all
that is hoped for from the operation may
be- realized, and that before another month
has passed MIR. Ewing may be able to
walk around the streets and see and talk
with his host of friends.

The best boy on earth Is the Lafayette
county boy" A "good many of him.
have gone out into the world to fight The
battles of life from another place, but
there are many who have chosen to stay
at home and "trod the paths their fathers
trod." The INTELLIaENCER likes to Sc.
the Lafayette county boy" locate in Ia
fayetts. We think the grand old county
would loose by trading the bulk OF hel
Sons to another county and import stran'
gers to handle the legacies left them By
their ancestors. Among her boys whC
have located here and gone to work to
build up q good name and fortify II
with q good record, there Is not a better
one than Deputy Sheriff Oscar Thomas
Since he came here to assume his duties
In the sheriff's office, he has made a friend
OF every one with whom he has come 10
contact. His uniform courtesy, absolute
correctness aud accommodating manner
In all dealings with those who nave asso-
ciated with him, have received many com
msndations. The INTELLINENCER's guess
for It Is, here 10 a Lafayette county boy
who Is going to succeed in life and be res
pected by every one. We pick him fol
one OF the winners in the battle OF life.
