STOMACH
TAKEN OUT

G. S. Herbolsheimer, who
passed through II successful sur
gical operation two weeks ago
at the sanitarium, WIS in the
city Saturday on his way to his
home at Palisade. The opera
tion which was performed on
Mr.. Herbolsheimer was one of
the most delicate as well as the
most successful which has ever
taken place at the sanit.rium.
Two-thirds of the patents stom-
'ach, which was affected by cancer
was taken entirely out, and the in
testines leading from the stomach
were connected at another place en-
to the part of the stomach which
still remained.
The most dangerous feature of the
operation was the necessity of cut
ting the artery leading from the heart
to the stomach, and the least excite
ment or vomiting by the patient
would have meant instant death.
Mr.. Herbolsheimer is now able to
eat heartily ana enjoy a good meal
which is the first time for several
years. He is loud in his praise OF
the skill of the doctors and the treat
ment he has received at the hands OF
the sanitarium folks, who he consid-
ers have saved his fe.-Montrose

Perhaps it never occurred to you
that defect in the sight is not as
a rule a disease of the eye. SO often
it is condition which the proper
glasses will not only relieve but
many times entirely cure-sight is
restored, eyes are made strong, head
aches disappear. the nervous strain
is relieved and the eyes are saved
perhaps from blindness.

The report of H. E. Mulnix, expert
accountant, on the condition of the
books and accounts of school district
No. l for the school year of 1907-S,
was received, read and accepted. 1t
is most interesting report and
shows that the affairs of the district
are in a very satisfactory condition.
The report is thorough and complete.
In his report Mr. Mulnx suggests
that 1.-The board should install bet
ter and more complete system of ac-
counting; also that vouchers specially
printed fer its use should be used in
order that all disbursements may be
properly receipted for and filed
away"
The report shows that the total
neceipts during the year from July
2. 1907, to June so. 1908, were $71,-
556.51. The total expenditures
amount to the same figure.
There are bonds outstanding to the
amount of s62,500.
On June so, 1908, there were bal
ances to the credit of the school fund
in the county treasury amounting to
$4,914.5O.
Interest on bonds paid during the
year amounted to $2,535.34.
At the meeting last night it was
decided to lay standard size and
grade cement walk around the school
property in the opera house block.
The secretary was instructed to adj
vertise for bids for the construction
of 125 feet of walk on Fourth street
and 100 feet of walk on Ute avenue.
The walk is to be s feet wide.
The board ordered that the new
sanitary drinking fountains be
placed in the Lowell and high school

BY
A MAD CAT

Mrs. Elizabeth Lee, an aged
woman of Valverde, suburb of
Denver, well known for her long
service in the Salvation Army, is
near death at her little cottage
in the gardens of the Platte val
ley from blood poisoning, which
developed from the bites of fe-
rocious cat which attacked her
last Friday.
With her Tisnr arm swollen and
blue to the shoulder, a raging fever
which has driven the aged woman in
to a wild delirium, and her entire
body throbbing with pain. the old
lady is confined to a cot in the little
shanty which gives her shelter, and
attending physicians fear that she
cannot live.
The huge cat, which attacked the
decrepit woman on Friday, had been
acting strangely for days, and is now
supposed to have been driven mad by
Nthe death of its former mistress, a
Mrs. Jane Eddy, who died few
weeks ago.
Immediately after making her es-
cape from the claws and teeth of the
infuriated animal, and while a great
stream of blood was flowing from the
torn arteries in her right hand and
arm. Mrs. Lee seized a club and killed
the animal to prevent it from attack
ing a neighbor woman who was run
Iilng into the yard to give assistance
to the almost helpless old lady.
An hour after the cat had bitten
her the right arm was swollen to
twice its normal size. and the terrible
pain which shot through the enfee-
bled body caused Mrs. Lee to go into
a raving delirium.
