A BUSY HOSPITAL
DOOlittle Establishment Unique For
City Size of Lancaster.

Doolittle hospital city, now in it's
seventh year, is unique in several re-
spects. In addition to a remarkably
fine equipment for the care, opera
ton and treatment of cases, its rec
ord in handling cases is truly re-
markable.
In the past six years at their pres
ent hospital Drs. Doolittle have per-
formed 1916 operations, 542 of which
were major abdominal. The total
deaths in all operations has been six.
This is record unequalled by any
of the larger clinics or hospitals.
DR.. S. W. Doolittle retired July l on
account of i'll health, and his plans
for the future are not yet determined.
Twenty-six years of his practice were
spent in Lancaster, excepting one year
or study in Vienna and 18 months in
France as army doctor.
DR.. j. G. Doolittle, a graduate of
Marquette Medical School, Milwaukee
County Hospital Interneship and Illi-
no1s eye, ear, nose and throat clinic,
will continue in the practice of gener-
al medicine and surgery, operating
the hospital as formerly. He expects
to add one or two doctors as assistants
in the near future.
DR.. Doolittle is in his 18th year of
practice here.

FALLS SEVENTY FEET
Not Many Men Can Live to Tell Story
of Such an Experience.

VIROQUA.-Not many men ever fell
20 feet and lived to tell the tale, but
that is what happened to Bert Mason
on Saturday afternoon, and stranger
than the fact that he is alive is per-
haps the fact that he sustained but
minor injuries.
Hardwareman Clarence Webb and
Mr.. Mason were on the platform of
the windmill at the old Webb home
engaged in hosting repair part in
to place when the chain broke and
Bert lost his balance. He still held
on to the rope, but when the slack was
taken up his hold was broken and the
rope tore through his hands, he fall
ing 60 feet at full speed, landing on
his feet, and sustaining only a badly
burned pair of hands and a badly
strained foot. was a miraculous es-
cape from what seemed certain death.

To Hold Special Election
Over Bridge Controversy

A special election has been called
in the town of Potosi on July IA, to
confirm action of the town meeting
last spring in regard to a new bridge
over Grant at the point known as
Masseyville, just above the Burling-
ton tracks.
1t seems that after the town meet
ing, the board entered into contract
with Tom Mcmahon, the low bidder,
to construct new bridge. Now it is
found that a special election is neces-
sary to ratify the boards action.
Since landing the contract Mr.. McMa-
hon has gone ahead with plans for the
structure and would entail consider
able personal loss if the election is
adverse to bridge building.

Family Reunion at the
Charles Tiedemann Home

To some the Fourth of July was a
day of riotous celebration. To others
a day set apart on the business calen-
dar for relaxation and rest.
To Mrs. Alice Galloway, a gray hair
ed mother, enfeebled by the infrmi-
ties of advancing years July Fourth
was a happy holiday indeed.
The extreme joy of being surround
ed by all of her children was hers
that day.
Mrs. Galloway entertained at a lit
tie family reunion all her own that
day at the home of Charles Tiede-
mann in this city. All of her sons and
daughters with their families were
present on this pleasant occasion.

The Herald for one does not favor
