The house cleaning the capital city is undergoing
promises to be most thorough. The probing com
mittes appointed weeks ago by Mayor Badger
has dug up sufficient s'pay dirt" to cause the city
council to remove two members of the Board of Pub

similar fate had he not forestalled the action by re-
signing immediately after charges had been filed by
the mayor. While all three members under in

A physician whose practice is con
fined exclusively TO the treatment
of patients in the French army,
one DR.. Chanvel, has recently
published instructive statistics up
on this point.
He sets mp the contention that
in 90 per cent. of the cases treat
ed by this nursing process the pa
tients have recovered. In 1902 he
observed the treatment of 66S pa
tients suffering from appendicitis
in the hospitals of Paris.
OF this number 1888 were sub
jected to a surgical operation and
4SO were treated in the other way.
Twenty-three of those subjected
to surgery died and in the other
cases there resulted but three
deaths.
These facts have aroused IN
tense interest among American
physicians, whose general belief
seems to be that surgery as a cure
for appendicitis will be much less
nsed in the near future.

"There will be but one candidate

is no occasion for undue specula-

there are two.

IAN OPERATION FOR APPEND|-
GIFTS VERY OFTEN UNNECESSARY
Most Simple Remedies Recommended For
Relief and Permanent Cure.

The recent death of Archbishop
Montgomery Of California, from
appendicitis, close following thai
of Bishop Delany of Manchester
N. H., from the same cause, has
stimulated physicians who believe
operations in these cases to be mn
necessary to renewed Efforts.
Eminent surgeons disagree as to
whether or not the knife should
ever be used in cases of appendi-
citis and there are many who in
sist that if either of these clergy
men had sought medical aid be-
fore appendicitis has reached a
critical stage the lives of both
Bishop Delany and Archbishop
Montgomery might have been
saved.
The two men were close friends,
In fact, when Bishop Delany died
one Of the most sympathetic letters
received by his relatives was from
Archbishop Montgomery, then in
the full flush of health.
Many surgeons have insisted for
some time that operations for ap.
pendicitis were all nonsense; that
recovery was much more certain
when the knife was not resorted
to and have quoted statistics to
prove their figures.
1t has even been claimed that
operating for this disease has be
come a mania among surgeons,
who, in some instances at least,
are moved by the large fee which
attaches to an operation, a much
larger amount than could be
charged for prescribing simple
but perhaps more effective remedy.
1t was only the other day that a
surgeon was granted a verdict of
$4,000 against the estate of a
woman who had died after an
operation for appendicitis! Ex'
perts testified that the operation
was success in every way, the
trifling fact that the patient died
not seeming to count at all.
When appendicitis first came to
he much discussed the appendix
was declared to he worn-out or
gan, relic of some primeval anees-
tor, but that view is no longer as
sented to by all surgeons. Scien-
fists of repute now declare that
the appendix is very necessary
part of the body and performs
certain function of digestion.
They assert that few people after
it has been removed live a great
of years. Ten years, they
say, is long time for man or
woman to live after the appendix
has been removed.
A leading physician said recent

HENRY'S
 TREATMENT I
Doubiy ironed and Chained to the Steamers Cabin En Route to
 Fairbanks.

Men arriving. at Rampant on the Cudahy yesterday say G. II. Henry. ed itor of the Panama Citizen, was arraigned at Fairbanks on the charge of criminal libel, Saturday, May IS. His attorneys at once moved for dismissal of the case. Judge Gunnison took the motion under advisement and the matter was to come up again last Saturday.
 It is said the deputy marshal took Henry from Panama to Fairbanks in double irons and chained to the cabin of the steamer. The unnecessary brutality displayed by the deputy marshal is said to have raised a storm of indignation, even at Fairbanks Convicted felons have not heretofore been treated with such harshness on the way to the peni- tentiary; and Deputy Marshal Vautier is openly accused of taking advantage cf his official position to gratify petty spite.

Enthusiastic Meeting Resolved to Improve
 the Park and Play Ball.

Before the full round of the nall was made with the paper, the expression be- came general, 70, we'll all do our part, and there was no effort made to secure further signatures. Many who were not at the meeting have since volunteered subscriptions in money and work, and the necessar improvements are assured, as we'll as ample funds for purchasing paraphernalia.
 Work on the grounds was commenced and great deal accomplished Monday. Many turned out who had made no pledges, and they all worked like 'boosters" on the Panama association claims. One of the noted workers was Master Sullivan Mayo, little tad who rolled q wheelbarrow and refused to knock off until his grandpa Al and his unces Charley and Lee were ready to go home.
 A practice game of ball was played on the grounds sunday afternoon, in which the Radigans druhbed the Scha- bers at the rate of 70 to 12. The Seattle No. 3 had arrived on her up trip, and large number of her passengers and crew witnessed the game. Captain Newromb himself, when he saw tine Schaber bunch was SD badly outclassed, went to their assistance and played d strong game, but the crew was so green there was no show to make the landing
