GUT BY HUSBAND
The Surgeons at Bellevue Hospital
in New York Performed an Oper-
alton that Promises to be
Historic.

NEW YORK, Oct 25-Although a
knife blade penetrated her heart, An
ME Kingsley, 80 years old, who was
taken to Bellevue hospital after being
assaulted at Twenty-first street and
Third avenue by her husband, will
probably live.
The operation performed upon Mrs
Kingsley by Professor Stewart and DR..
Cash, in the presence of fifteen other
surgeons, is one of the most remark
able in the shistory of surgery, and
should the woman survive for even a
few days, the case will doubtless be
recorded for generations to come as
historic in the annals Of the pro-
fession.
When the. ambulance arrived at
Bellevue Mrs. Kingsley was dying.
The blood was rushing from a long
wound in the left breast, and but for
the prompt and heroic treatment of
Professor Stewart she would not have
lived quarter of an hour.
The heart was laid bare, and the
physicians in attendance for the first
time in their lives. perhaps, witnessed
the action of that organ in a human
being. lit was vivisection to limited
standardization made excusable be-
cause the life of the subject depended
upon dt In the intervals between
beats stitches were taken with a
needle and caught until the wound
was closed and the flow had ceased.
Then the wound was carefully
dressed, and results anxiously await
ed. Slowly at first, but no less sure
4y. the patient rallied Not long after
the operation she became conscious,
and finally she was able to speak, dis
playing remarkable vitality. Profess
sor Stewart announced that she had a
fair chance of ultimate recovery.
A few years ago Mrs Kingsley's in
jury would have been considered fatal
beyond doubt, and practically no ef-
fort would have been made to prolong
her life. 1t is an indication of the
tremendous strides made by modern
surgery when a wound of this kind.
which not only punctures the peri
cardium but penetrates the very heart
itself, is not considered necessarily
fatal.

The annual report of the treasury

In behalf OF the people of DeSoto

cause very few Of them knew the

acquainted with his competitor, who
Is citizen of long residence and
high character. The editor had been

while his competitor has lived here
twelve years or more. Neither of
the two candidates made any can.
yass nor put forth any special effort
to win, because neither was anxious
to get the Office which their respec.
tive friends sought to thrust upon
them.
The editor labored also under the
disadvantage OF openly opposing
several prominent candidates snd
thereby alternating their influence.
Further, the people were not fully
informed they did not understand
the impersonallty of the editors can
didacy and that II meant simply q
request by Punta Gorda for repre-
sentatlon ON the school board. The
editor was remlss In not properly
informing the people, who, by their
votes for other candidates, showed
that they are blessed with intelli-
gence, discrimination and true
sense of what Is right,
Ina word, the people Of DeSoto
county are all right and the editor
intends to live amongst them and
work with them and for them all the

General Gllchrist has assured the

make an affidavit to that effect, that
he knew nothing whatever of any

Tampa Herald; AS for United

that Governor William y. Jennings
Is tho logical man to succeed Senator
Tallaforro, whom his term expires.
Florida has never had u governor
who has devoted his brains and en-
ergles to the interests Of the people
as has William s. Jennings, and In
his administration as governor he
has shown what he can do for the
people. As member of the Florida
Congressional delegation, In the
senate, he would do work for the state
that would reflect credit upon the
people who sent him there.
At the close of his term as govern.
or no will have accomplished more
than any other man has ever done
there In four years, and II Is but due
him that his services should be re-
warded and the people give him an
opportunity to expand and demon
strate what he can do In u sphere In
which there Is much work to be done
for Florida.
