an operation at the Baraboo Hospital
Saturday to allay an Inflammation of the
left upper jaw, a smouldering ailment
of which he has peen more or less cog

of acute pain accompanied by consider
able temperature persuaded him to en-
ter the hospital Saturday for thorough
and conclusive attention. A distressing
pus pressure was at once relieved and
the affected parts above the teeth
reached, drained and purified; but it
will probably be several days before
the patient can be out. Mrs. Cole, who

some weeks attending to business af-
fairs, was notified and reached Bara-

BILE that the operation may delay de-
parture.
