UAgDERGOES A VERY SERIOUS
OPERATION AT HOSPITAL
Mrs. F. P. w. Lowle, wife of tlie
j local agent of the C. P. R. iwider
I went an operation for appendicitis
at 11 o'clock last night at the Whiti
j I'ass hospital In Skagway, the work
being performed by Dr. Gabie, the
resident physician, with tho ;issis
! tance of Dr. Angus Campbell of
j Toronto. Mrs. Lowle at last ac
I counts was resting easily, with
every indication for a speedy and
j complete recovery.
The first intimation Mrs. Lowle
I had of her distressing malady was
j on last Tuesday on her way up
] from Vancouver on the Princess
May. At tliat time it was thought
| that she was suffering from
ptomaine poisoning, and when the
| boat reached Skagway she was at
(>nce hurried to the hospital, where
j Dr. Gabie diagnosed the symptoms
j and pronounced the case to be ap
j pendicitis.
I I'pon the arrival of Dr. Cr.mpbell
from the interior last night he was
| called In consultation and it was de
cided by the two physicians that
• 11 operation was necessary and
that the sooner it was accomplish
ed the greater would be the chances
of the patient's recovery. It was
therefore gone through with at the
hour above stated and with very
satisfactory results.
The people of Skagway are await
ing with sympathetic anxiety for
the time of after complications
from the operation to pass, and in
i he meantime are ready to offer any
assistance thai it may be within
their power to render under the
regrettable circumstances.

SKAG11S WORKING
j ENTHDSIASTIGLY FOR
BANNER EXHIBIT
At an early hour tomorrow morn
ing, should a person stand at the
side of any one of the wagon roads
loading into Skagway, it is fair
to predict that he would seo load
after load of the finost specimens
of the Skagway valley ranch pro
dusts being taken to the Horticul
tural building on Broadway, where
it will during the day be placed in
attractive display.
Already the flower gardens, which
have buen the jirido of Skagway
during the past summer, show
where tlie ruthless kniie and
shears have clipped the most bril
liant or largest or rarest blossom,
that it may take a part In the ex
hibition, and perchance gain for
its owner a prize at the hands of
I he judges.
The Third Skagway Annual Horti
cultural aad Industrial Fair will be
the biggest and best. Some
there were who ' said that
last year would end the en
thusiasm but when ll»e day
was s»t for the third annual event,
the desire to show to the world the
products of the Skagway valley was
again awakened, and at a late hour
this afternoon, there was very lit
tle syace unclaimed in the big build
ing.
The Alaska General KJeetric com-"
panjr have installed a telephone
system, as an "accomodation tor the
exhibitors, while the Home Power
company have installed the lights,
and the workman have been busy
all day cleaning up the building,
and assisting all who were in need
of their services.
The Ladies eivic League commit
tee have been out all day perfecting
their plans for their exhibits, and
when they found that all Skagwayans
still look a pride in the forthcoming
•vent, they decided to go a little
farther thaajn prior years, and add
a new feature to the Third Show. It
will ba known as the "Glacier" and
here will be the real fun of the fair.
Pop com, peanuts, and chewing
candy will be yea deft J»y pretty
young girls, while there will be other
attractions in the nature of Punch
and Judjr shows, throwing rings at
canes, jack-knives, fishing posd'
caa;ed wild animals, and a uumjMr oi
other interesting feature^ that tJiv
conces^onerers refuse to »B9afc of
ia details. It Is believed that
some of the visitors to the "Glacier"
will meet with a "frost."
Farmers Clark, Weber, Wills,
Blauchard, Dickeson, Zlnfcaa, XWrar
elle, and others have madq th«
statement, each, one to this pajw,
that they were sure of getting the
prize this year, bo It is aa inured
fact that there will be "soma puaop
klirs" at the Third Annual Pair.
Loads of evergreens werq brought
in today from along the railway,
and men are busily engaged la 4#
csrating the interior of the bid
ing, while tomorrow there will
trses set out in ftaont of the Horti
cultural building that will land a
gala appearance to the whole.
The Ladies Aid of the Presbyter
ian church will serve refreshment*
on the balcony, and those who wish
to make an all-day Btay of their
visit to the fair may do bo, and sot
suffer pa*igs of hunger, providing
they do not spend their last two
bit piece for admission.
Tho children of the public echoola
are planning on a novel exhibit, and
will show to their parents and
friends what they learned about
Mother Natune during their sum
mer vacation. Miss Keonan, will
have the supervision of the display,
and will be assisted by School
