DELICATE OPERATION IS
PERFORMED AT DOUGLAS.
DOUGLAS, July 15.—What is
probably the first operation of its
kind in the North, was the one per
formed about two weeks ago at the
hospital by Drs. Midford and Ellis.
A patient was brought to the nos.
' pital suffering from a fracture of the
! elbow, and upon examination the bone
in the upper arm was found to be
split for a considerable distance. Dr.
Midford, whp recently took a course
with Dr. Murphy, “the bone carpent
er," in Chicago, resolved to try one of
Dr. Murphy’s operations. The flesh
of the arm was opened and the bone
laid bare, after which a small finish
ing nail was driven through the bone
at right angles to the split and the
flesh replaced.

BROOKS SAYS COOK
INLET HAS OIL.
SEATTLE.—Dr. Alfred Brooks,
head of the geological survey work
in Alaska, will sail for Alaska tonight
on the Jefferson. He will go directly
to Iditarod, and later to Fairbanks,
Valdez and Juneau. In a statement
made this morning Dr. Brooks says
the oil of the Katalla field in Alaska
is better than that of California
which is producing millions for that
State and performing a very import
ant office in the economics of the
west.
Dr. Brooks also said that he ex
pects to see the Cook Inlet country
become a great oil producing region.
FAST TIME FROM
BOSTON TO DAWSON.
DAWSON.—Jack Vachon, who
passed through Dawson, accompanied
by his family for their home in
Tolovana, and who left here on ti e
Tanana, made what is perhaps the
fatest trip on record from Boston to
Klondike. He made the journey in
II days and 21 hours and 45 minuter.
The distance is probably 4,500 miles.
The Tanana is exceeding fast, and the
party also should make a fast trip,
through to its destination.—Dawson
