CnndltIon CritIcnI.

King Edward is in room facing the
beautiful gardens of Buckingham pal
ace and far from the street and the
crowd. If present progress is main
tanned he will probably tide over the
effects of his severe operation, which
has successfully removed the local
trouble. But should any compiled ton
occur, such as septic peritonitis or
blood poisoning, it is feared his mai
esty's present physical and nervous
condition would prove unequal to the
strain involved. There is consequently
intense anxiety as to the outcome. The
kings dactors believe that his majesty
would have been dead before now ex-
cept for the operation. His condition
became so alarming Monday night that
at one time it was feared death might
ensue before the surgeons knife could
afford him relief. Intense swelling of
the extremities, accompanied by alarm
ing symptoms of mortifca tion. consti-
tuted the emergency which demanded
an immediate operation. To the last
the king tried to avoid this, and he was
willing to be carried to the abbey for
the coronation ceremony in order that
it should occur as arranged. The in
fiuence of Queen Alexandra was enlist
ed, however, and at an early hour
Tuesday morning the royal patient was
prepared for the operation, which,
even in the skillful hands of England's
best surgeons, was fraught with grave
danger.
The Operation.
Shortly before two o'clock Tuesday
afternoon his majesty was moved
from his couch to the operating table
and the anesthetic was administered.
Sir Frederick Treves made the incision
near the patients groin, and carried
it upwards, with an outward slant, for
nearly four inches. The obstruction
was removed and tubing was placed
in the affected intestine.
King Edwards first words when he
returned 10 consciousness were to ask
for George" and the prince of Wales,
who was waiting in the next room, was
Immediately admitted to his fathers
presence.
The following bulletin was issued
after the operation had been per-
formed:
THE operation has been successfully per-
formed. A large abscess has been evacu-
Ated. The king has borne the operation well
and Is a satisfactory condition"
While the operation was being per-
formed, the great courtyard of Buck
ingham palace, so lately the scene Of
such brilliant gatherings, was utter
ly deserted, and an impressive silence
reigned throughout the building. The
equerries talked in whispers, servants
tiptoed about, and the tension grew
almost unbearable. Then the word
was passed around "all had gone we'll"

MURDER IS AVENGED.
The Town Marshal OF jefferson, Ia,
Is Slain.

Sioux City, Ia, June 25.-lio ace
Shipman, who is supposed 10 nave
been half-witted, sho, ana killed tine
city marshal of Jefferson Saturday
morning, as the latter was aJIempC-
ing to arrest him. In few minutes
an infuriated mob surrounded the
house and Shipman was shot to death.
During the trouble and until the mob
was assured that Shipman was dead,
the town was in frenzy, but the
citizens are now cooling down.
Two boys on their way to the cir
Gus saw Shipman sitting in front of
his house and began jeering him. He
became quite angry and pursued the
lads, throwing stones at them. They
swore out warrants for his arrest,
and these were placed in the hands
of City Marshal Swearingen for SER
vice.
Kills the Omcer.
He proceeded to Shipman's house,
but the latter had barricaded himself,
and when Swearingen knocked at the
door Shipman fired and Swearingen
fell dead. DR.. G. II. Grimmell, Ship
mans family physician, went ahead
of the marshal to attempt to have
Shipman surrender peaceably. Ship
man agreed to this, but when Swear
ingen and Deputy Sheriff Fred Ken
dali appeared at the door he warned
them not to come in under penalty
of death. Swearingen, undaunted,
started to pull his revolver for the
purpose of entering, and Shipman
fred a load of shot, striking the mar
shall in the lower part of the face,
and killing him instantly. DR.. Grim
nell and the deputy beat a retreat,
leaving the body of the marshal upon
the porch.
Enrnges the Citizens.
Sheriff Anderson Immediately went
to the scene of the shooting, depu-
thing dozen citizens to assist him.
Hundreds of people gathered near
Shipman's home, and for three hours
watched the battle. Five hundred
shots were poured into the large two
story house, Shipman replying from
UHe WlHuOWS, CelldEWdN ana uOOT.
The fire company was called out and
James May volunteered to stick a
hose in the cellar and drown him out.
May accomplished his work, but Ship
man fired upon him from the cellar,
causing him to retreat About IL
o'clock Shipman appeared at the win
dow and fifty shots were fired at him.
1t then became quiet inside and Ship
mans body was found on the floor,
full of bullets.
No arrests have been made, and IL
is expected that none will be made.
During the entire conflict the body
of City Marshal Swearingen lay on
Shipman's doorstep, where it had
fallen, bleeding from CHASTITY
wound in the throat.
There is no doubt that Shipman
was insane For a long time he had
been considered mentally unsound.
Some time ago he was before the in
sanity commissioners. He was at
that time adiudged insane, but he
was never taken to the asvlum.
Shirr'an was married, but had no
children.

DEMAND FOR woMEN'S HAIR.
Agents ScOur the Countries of the
Old World to Buy Tresses
for the Elite.

Never has the demand for women's
hair in Europe been greater than it is
now, and men are going from town to
town in France, Germany, Switzerland
and Russia buying all they can get. 1t
has been said that one enterprising
dealer has sent some agents to China
for this purpose, says London paper.
The finest hair in France is furnished
by Brittany, for the Breton women
have very luxuriant tresses, which
never fail to fetch high price in Lon
don. Most of these women are poor
and are quite willing to sacrifice their
hair, especially as they wear bonnets
which completely cover their heads,
and thus effectually hide them when
shorn.
France furnishes more brown and
black hair than any other country, and
fair and golden hair is furnished, as a
rule, by the women of Germany and
the north of Europe. Gray and white
hair is always in demand, and If of
good quality, fetches high price.
A French woman's hair weighs gen.
orally five ounces and half, an Ital-
ian woman's six ounces, and German
woman's nine ounces. Itreeuires much
tact to persuade some women to part
with their hair, and it is therefore no
wonder that man who possesses this
tact and who is good judge of hair,
can readily command salary of from
$4,000 to $4,000.

Balfour's room in the house of COM

arranged to carry on so far as possible

valescence.

St. Jacobs OIL.

In cases where bronchitis has become
chronic from want of proper treatment in
the earlier stages, there is nothing SO good
as DR.. August Koenig's Hamburg Breast
Tea, in conjunction with which is strongly
advised the use of St. Jacobs Oil as an out
ward application, along the. front. of the
throat, from close up under the chin to well
down to the top of the chest; the one rem
edy assists the other, and, as intended, they
work m complete unison. The wonderful
penetrating power of St. Jacobs Oil en-
ables it to reach the adhesion of foreign
matter which lines the bronchial tubes and
which makes breathing more and more diff
hcuit. As these adhesiohs become infiamed
and enlarged, st. Jacobs Oil causes such ad-
hesions to break away, making expectora-
ton easier and more free. DR.. August
Koenig's Hamburg Breast Tea, drank slowly
and very hot, soothes and heals the parts,
is comforting and quoting, stops the cough
and relieves the breathing. This manner
of treatment land there is no. other two
cessfully) reaches the difficulty from the
outside and the inside at the same time
st. Jacobs Oil reaches the roots of the ad-
hesion, and assists DR.. August Koenig's
Hamburg Breast Tea in clearing them; then
both remedies act in unison in healing and
curing. The above remarks apply with equal
force in cases of asthma, Group, whooping
cough, enlarged tonsils, and all bronchial
affections. Every family should have St..
Jacobs Oil and DR.. August Koenig's Ham
burg Breast Tea always in the house in or
der that they may be promptly used in the
first stages. Often the maladies develope
with wonderful rapidity, and complications
take place with equal suddenness.
