 MT. Reid had recovered from the shock incident to his removal, the council made an examination of his wounds.
 The sufferer was found to have
 been shot with Winchester .45 cal ibre. the ball entering two inches
 above the groin. on the right side, and making its exit an inch to the right of the point of the spinal col- umn. The ball made a compound comminuted fracture of the pelvic bone, and several fragments of this were removed at the time of the e1- animation.
 It needs no words to tell the ason- izins pain attending this operation. yet Mir. Reid showed the same Spar tan coolness and endurance which he had exhibited since first struck by
 the rife of "Soapy" Smith. Before . tie doctors began the operation he asked for a cigar. and this he calmly
 smoked while the shattered frag-

 moved The opinion of the medical council is that Mir. Reid's chances
 for recovery are fairly good.
 As we go to press Mir. Reid is rest I ing easily, and talking over the stir
