suffering from stab wound which
had punctured the wall of the heart
and penetrated the right auricle. A
rare and difficult operation was i'm
mediately performed by three of the
surgeons attached to the hospital, all.
of whom are young men, and the
wound in the heart was sewed togeth-
er. At late hour the man was still
alive, and there was hope, although
slim one, that he might recover. To
get at the heart the physicians had to
saw off an inch and half of the third
right rib. Their next task was the
legation of two arteries, an operation
that in itself involves life and death.
Having got that far and still finding
the man breathing, they were able to
give their attention to the heart it,
self. They found that the auricle had
been seriously punctured, the width of
the wound being about one-qusrter
of an inch. This wound was closed
with single stitch and the usual
dressings applied. The entire opera
ton consumed thirty five minutes.
Anaesthetics were used.

President in Massachusetts.
The President is making a hasty,
visit to Massachusetts, all too hasty.
we are sure, for the pleasure of the
people of the commonwealth. The
people of the state like to see Pres
idents, and Mr.. Roosevelt will be well
coined by the cheers of men who voted
for Mr.. Bryan and Mr.. Parker, as we'll
as by the reclamation of those who
voted for Mr.. Mckinley and for him
self. No partisanship is manifested
by the commonwealth, or in it, when
Massachusetts people or institutions
are the hosts. The presidents train
reached Worcester three minutes
ahead of schedule. At the station the
reception committee headed by Lieut..
Gov. Guild, representing the state;
Mayor Blodgett of the city, former
Cong. Walker, Stephen Salisbury and
Gen. lockwood Hoar were waiting.
and as soon as the train had come to
a standstill, boarded the presidents
car and formally presented the well
come of the commonwealth and of
the city of Worcester. That Worces-
ter had prepared for an earnest and
enthusiastic welcome to the president
was evidenced by the extensive dec
Grafton of buildings and dwellings.
He did not have time, however, to
study the state and it's opinions. His
journey was of that hasty sort which
many engagements for limited time
entail upon him. Still, while be can
not learn the condition of the pop
ular mind, as it is not revealed to him
by our representatives, he will see
the faces of the intelligent youth
whom three of our colleges are send
ing out into the world. Next week
he will return to the state and will see
another company of young men GO
ing out to work in the world, the
young men who have been taught by
the university which taught him.
