Mr. and Mrs. Seymour Simp- character Another Performed on Kiss Bertha Thrasher in San Francisco. Two surgical operations have been performed on Miss . Bertha Thrasher in San Francisco within a month. The last, occurred Sun day, and is the fifth since the un fortunate accident in wnicn sne was injured in Corvallis nearly four years ago. A telegram from Charles Pearse Sunday afternoon announcing that a very severe op eration had been performed that morning, was the first knowledge the family in this city had of the fact that Miss Thrasher was again ailing, or that an operation was necessary .The day before that, they had received a letter stating on the 8th of the current month, another operation had been performed. This letter was written a few days after the fourth operation had been per: formed, but it was delayed four days enroute on account of the trouble with the railroad in the Siskiyous. Prior to its receipt the family was resting in peace of mind with thtf belief that the daughter was in perfect health, and practically cured of her old trouble. Mrs Spangler- had seen Miss Thrasher in San FranciscJ on the 5th, and came home with the im pression that the young lady was in perfect health'. There was ap parently but Jittle or no limp in the walk, and the friends in this city who heard of the fact were jubilant over the result. The receipt of the letter on Saturday announcing the operation on the 8th, and of the telegram Sunday announcing still another that day and that Miss Thrasher was to be in the hospital for two weeks at least, has had a most depressing effect on many Corvallis people who have a deep sympathy with the young woman in her misfortune. But little is known here of the or necessities for new O. A. C. WON. ANOTHER PIONEER. son lett yesterday ior w ren ior a operations, it seems tnat some in visit with friends. They are to re- flammation appeared in the covering turn Thursday, and then after a of the bone at the point of the origi day or two with Corvallis friends nal wound, and that the knife had are to go to Spokane to reside. The to be resorted to for relief. The change is for the benefit of the telegram announced that it was ex- health of their daughter, Miss Pearl Simpson, who is now under the care of a specialist at Spokane. The hardware store of Robert Huston was burglarized Monday night. The thief gained entrance through a skylight in the roof, and carried away three revolvers and cartridges to match. Whether other articles were taken or not, is not known, but nothing else has been missed from the store. No trace whatever was left and there is not the slightest suspicion as to 'Jhe identity of the guilty parties. The Gazette says, "the editor of the Times cannot escape the res ponsibility for what is said in his paper." Why, certainly not. It is the Gazette of whom its owner publicly proclaims, "The Gazette or its owners are in nowise respon sible for anything that may be said in this department." The Gazette is the only paper on earth that en joys the unique distinction of hav ing its owner publicly declare that the stuff printed in it is untrust worthy and unrea' ible. A letter, written by Charles Pearse just after Sunday's opera- . tion. tells the family here of the condition of Miss Bertha Thrasher, It says: iSertba has been a very sick girl with chances of recovery more against than in her favor." Further explanation is that pus gathered between its covering and the bone in the thigh, and that the operation was for its removal. The pus was successlully drained away, and the bone thoroughly treated. The letter also stated that Miss Thrasher had been in high fever, and had suffered much internal pain. - The fifth debate in the series of seven for the Gatch cup was won at the college Saturday night by the team of the Feronian society. The debaters were, Miss Florence Adams, Miss Jones, and Miss Gil bert. They defeated the team of MTierians, consisting of Miss Phil lips, Miss Maud Roberts and Miss Edwards. The question was, "Re solved, that Co-education is detri , mental to the best interests of Students." The Feronians had the affirmative, and their opponents, the negative. 1 he decision of the iudees was two to one for the Fer onlans. The debate was an excellent one, and Jeflected much credit on the participants. A large audience was In attendance. pected that the operation would be successful. It seems however, that a similar announcement was madejwith reference to the operation on the 8th, and members of the family are cynical in consequence. Miss Thrasher went to San Fran cisco on the 8th of last August. She has since been at the home of Char les Pearse, and has been dress- maKing at good wages ever since, her. work being with wealthy fami lies. It was planned recently for her to return to Corvallis, but her pnysician desired that she remain until the autumn, in order that, the case might be watched closely. I he accident in which Miss Thrasher was iniured, haonened four years ago the 1st of next July. Miss Thrasher with others was driving on Main street in the after noon, and the horses became fright ened. In the mixup that resulted Miss Thrasher was thrown from the buggy and fell heavily on the pave ment in tront ot Berman s store. A lower limb was broken above and below the knee, so that the parts refused to knit. Surgeon's in Corvallis, Albany and Portland studied the case, and finally she went to San Francisco, where an operation for removal of the de tached Jbone was undertaken. The parts were then sawed so as to square them, and were bound together with a silver wire. They knitted and for a considerable time there was no trouble, but as time passed one operation has succeeded another until there seems no end of the evil effects df the accident. A telegram received yesterday morning from the surgeon who performed the latest operation says that Miss Thrasher is doing well and that no anxiety need be felt. For Sale. Fine shepherd puppies.
