Sculptor Rallies From Second Oper
ationNo Tumor Found May Re
cover but Will Bo Paralyzed on
Left Side. -
SAN FKANCISCO, Out. 128. Ar
thur Putnam, the California fcoulptor,
fa in a more serious condition than
he has boon at any previous tune
.since since his confinement m St
Francis hospital. The second opor
ntion, performed Thursday, lias
weakened him considerably. It is
said, however, that lie probably will
recover but thai he will be perma
nently paralyzed on the loft side.
Thursday's operation rcMilled in
tho removal of an extensive softened
area of the brain over the motor
urea of the left side. No tumor wnr
found. Tho softeninjr seems to have
probably been due either to it dis
eased blood vessel, which had been
plugged up or Jo external procure
of u deeply seated, irremovable tij
mor There is no evidence within
from blood examination, or chemical
ly, of dieafe of the heart or blood
vessels, such as might cause thU
trouble.
If there should be no tumor and he
survives this operation, Putnam may
live with his loft side paralyzed and
there may be no further progress of
the trouble.
Every physician in San Francisco
who could in airy way contribute in
what is considered one of the most
baffling oases, was present at the
operation.

Willis Polk's Tribute.
In an inteivicw in the Oregon
Journal, Willis Polk, chairman of the
Pan-Pacific Exposition architectural
commission, pays the following trib
ute to Arthur Putnam, the San Fran
cisco sculptor, who is lying seriously
ill nt a San Francisco hespital:
"I consider Arthur Putnam the
greatest sculptor since Michael Ah
golo," deelnred Mr. Polk. "His ill
ness and his probable death are a
calamity. If I have anything to do
in directing the architectural work of
the exposition, I expect to have.
Arthur Putnam would have done all
Ihe important sculpture for the ex
position. "No man since Angelo could do
what Putnam Jins done He could take
a block of marble and a chisel and
without model or drawings produce
the statue. He bns a wonderful im
agination, marvelous artistic temper
ntment. Has Xotnhlc Career.
"He was just reaching the ma-,
turity of his thought and nbility when
laid low and the memory of him ly
ing helpless on n hospital bed is more
than pathetic."
Mr. Polk told of Jiis first meeting
with Arthur Putnnm.
"Ho wns emerging from the man
hole of a sewer and sqemed about to
faint," he said. "I helped him out
and nssisted in reviving him. Tlint
was our first meeting. I snw then
he wns no scavenger. Afterwards he
worked in a slaughter house that !in
might study the anatomy of auimals
at first hand.
"Rome of liis work was exhibited
in the salon at Paris. One of the
governors of the French academy
wrote him saying that he bad seen
the wort, then learned to his sur
prise that Pntnnni was not u member
of the academy, .and adding that it
would bo a pleasure to propose his
name for membership.

Save money because tho Burroughs saves five-sixths of the time you and
