BY SURGICAL OPERATION

j. w. Smith, member of the firm
of Smi h G. Reilly, who recently sold
their business, underwent a surgical
operation in this city Monday aft
ernoon and is now reported as pro-
crossing satisfactorily.
Mr.. Smith suffered a protracted
siege of typhoid fever last fall and
following his recovery from that all
meat a humorous mass formed on
Ills right breast. An operation was
then performed fer removal of that
mass and for time the patient
seemed to improve. He has since
become worse, however, and an ex-
animation by local surgeons reveal
ed the fact that one rib on his
right breast was badly decayed and
four inches of that member was sue
cessfully removed in the operation
Monday.
1t is now thought that Mr.. Smith
will find complete relief from his
ailments. He is being cared for at
his home, corner of Dodge and
Sixth streets.
