with his father. This was in 1888.
Five years later his brother followed
a somewhat similar course and began
the practice Of medicine also. At that
same time OSSS) st. Mays hospital
was opened with the father as sur
gcon-n.chicf, and the two sons, assist
ant surgeons; and down to the present
day none other than the Mayos or
their immediate associates have ever
performed n surgical operation in that
institution
For several years they all followed
an extensive general practice, travel
ing over the Rochester district many
miles daily and going through the
same arduous routine that marks the
daily life of country doctor. With
the lapse of time and increasing years
the father gradually retired from prac-
ticc, and now, a vigorous old man OF
eightyseven, holds the honorary posi-
tion OF consulting surgeon to the hos
pital Gradually, too, the two brothers
retired from general practice and for
several years have devoted themselves
to surgery exclusively. Their wide
reputation as accomplished surgeons
rests upon unusual abilities, de-
vOtiOn to the welfare Of their patients,
marvellous capacity for hard work, and
keen appreciation OF the Importance
of perfection, toward which every de-
tail of their daily life is aimed, As
their ambitions have broadened with
increasing opportunities they have
come to grasp the possibility and to
realize the fact that the highest pro-
fessional achievements may be attain
ed in the wilderness, as well as in
the great city.
Apologies TO Drs. Mayo.
This article should have been written
months ago, but when the writer left
the Rochester hospital he was given
to understand that 1t was against the
wish of the two surgeons that any
newspaper publicity be given to their
work. Much against the writer's in
clination he has respected this re-
quest and would yet we're 1t not for
the fact that other writer's have seen
fit to give long descriptions of the
Mayos and what they are doing. But
so long as the ice has been broken,
the writer feels that he would not be
doing his duty by others who find 1t
necessary to secure surgical assistance
| If he did not recall some of the meth
DDS of treating the sick by the Mayos
from the standpoint of one who has
been a patient. Hence this is offered
with apologies to the Drs. Mayo, whose
modesty induces them to shun news
paper notoriety.

TO RAISE $4,000

A Yesterdays. dispatch from Hazel

been started there to raise fund of
$4,000 among the United Mine
WORKERS of America as n testimonial
to John Mitchell upon his retirement

which he has built up to be one of
the strongest labor organizations Of
the country. Mr.. Mitchell's retire
ment Is due to III health, following
years of hard work on behalf of the
underground tollers In the authorl-
cite belts.
1t was suggested here by some of
the leading Mine Workers that each
member of the union throughout the
country assess himself five cents, and
this would create a fund OF S2O,OOO
that could be given to the retiring
leader at the next national conVeu-
ton. to be held next January in
Indianapolis, over which it is expect
ed he will preside. Reports from
Spring Valley HIS. the home OF
Mitchell, arc that he has recovered
from his recent operations Tor ln-
ternal troubles and Will be able to
resume his duties after the hew year.
President Mitchell Is popular a.
mong the men in every part ofthe
United States. and, ms he has given
the best years of his life to the union,
1t Is believed here that the national
convention will take some means OF
expressing its recognition Of what
he has accomplished. Tho raising
of a fund may be acted upon at the
district conventions of the miners
that are to be held in the early part

in this favored section of the coun-

that 30 many of those hard work

finding their way to Colorado and
to the Grand valley IN particular.
Mr.. Yariger writes that he saw a
small pamphlet entitled "A Brief Re

He was most favorably impressed
with what he read, and he writes
Secretary Aupperle for further in
formation. He had about decided
to 20 to Texas. when he happened
to run across this piece of Grand
valley advertising matter, and he
pretty soon decided he would like
to come here, This is one of many
instances indicating the value of ju-
diciously advertising the city and
valley.
The Michiganer also states that Il
friend of his has also become inter
ested and VIII come to the Grand
valley seeking better health. Mr..
Yariger states that he will probably
make trip to the valley to look the
field over some time during the pres
ent month.
The writer of the interesting let
ter declares that he Is anxious to
get away from the long, cold winters
of Michigan.
1t is needless to say that the man
was given the desired Information by
return mail. His letter has true
ring about it ard he is one of those
sturdy citizens that any community
