A Difficult Surgical Operation". A very difficult surgical operation was performed at St. Anthony's hospital yesterday. The patient was a man about forty-five years of age. A short time ago he fell and broke both the tibia and fibula bones of bis right leg just above the ankle joint. The foot was turned to one side and the bone was protruding from the flesh. The end of the bones were dead and the pain was very great. Until within a few years ago in such injuries amputation was nearly always the result. The patient' takes a chance on his life, for the leg could be amputated above the fracture with safety. The bones were sawed off, and a large quantity of pus which had collected removed. The foot was placed in its proper jposition and bandaged. The operation was under charge of Dr. Willien, assisted by Drs. Swafford, Young, Stetson, John Crapo and Gerstmeyer.

Last Evening's Fire Alarm. The alarm of fire about half-past six o'clock last evening was caused by a coal oil lamp exploding in the stairway leading to the telephone exchange, at the rear of Buntin & Armstrong's drug store. The flames were extinguished before, the department arrived. No damage resulted beyond the scorching of the woodwork. The stairway is the only exit the operators employed in the telephone exchange have, and once on nre there would undoubtedly be serious results.

A Call Extended.

St. Stephen's Episcopal church has extended a call to the Rev. Dr. Delafield, now rector of the Episcopal church at Balston Spa, New York, in the diocese of Albany. The call was sent by mail Tuesday, and several days will pass before an answer will be received. The reverend gentleman who has received the call is about forty years old, has a wife and two children, and is spoken of as a man of great ability.

Amateur Theatricals.

An amateur theatrical entertainment is being arranged under the joint management of Mr. James Paxton Voorhees and Miss Alice Fischer, to take place at the Opera house early in February. Mr. Yoorhees does not assume any acting role, devoting himself exclusively to the management of the stage, which has been assigned as his special province. The performance is exciting unusual comment.

For several days there has been an understanding that something would turn up soon in the Nelson murder case, and something did, and Perry Manis has a sore head and a better chance for conviction. A few days ago Manis sent for Detective Vandever and told him that he had something important to tell him. "There is no use of me suffering all this alone," said Manis, "when there are others impli cated. There were three others in the affair," said he, "two men and one woman. One of the men lives across the river, and the other man and the woman live at Noblesville. Mrs. -Nelson was taken -to Noblesville and kept in a house there from the 6th to the 14th of September. It is strange to me that you have not gotten onto it before. About six miles from Noblesville a package of papers and some money is concealed that will reveal the whole affair. Manis said he wanted Mr. Vandever and Sheriff Cleary to take him to the spot, and he^weuld Bhow them the hiding place of the papers. Tuesday afternoon Manis was secretly taken to the Vandalia train and taken to Noblesville. They arrived at Noblesville about ten o'clock, and while Vandever went after a sleigh to take them to the spot, Cleary and Manis remained near a lumber yard. When Vandever had been gone a few minutes Manis broke and run with the sheriff after him. Cleary fired at Manis just as

Manis turned the corner of a lumber pile. Manis then attempted to run across a railroad track, but struck his foot against a rail and went sprawling in the snow. Cleary was on him in a second, and gave him a hard thump on the head with his revolver. Manis begged the sheriff to kill him, as be did not want to live. The shooting created considerable excitement in the vicinity and a large crowd collected. Manis then owned that his whole story was told for the purpose of making an opportunity to escape. He was brought piace,i

back to the city yesterday and in jail. Manis was seen by an Express re porter vesterdav-,aItftrjoonp- vHjBIn. inprrn^rnfmil nin compartment. He refused to talk for a long time, but at last said that he told tbe story to fool the officers that it was all a lie that the officers had taken him around the country, and he thought he would serve them the same way.

The officers say that Manis has made efforts to secure poison. He told a prisoner who was released from jail yesterday that he would give him a coat if he would secure somethinj: that would kill him. Manis requestec that his attorney, Mr. Mack, be sent to him. He told vandever that after he saw Mr. Mack he would tell him something that would lead to the arrest of others who were concerned in the crime. After Mr. Mack visited Manis, Yandaver went to see hi ret, but he said he wowld wait two or three days.

If Manis is innocent he has taken bad way to make an impression to that effect. .t ri'jtAFTER UNLICENSED SALOONS.

They Must, Put Up the Money toe LI cense, or Shut Up.

The unlicensed saloons are coming to grief. Yesterday war was declared on them by the police. Detective Dwyer and Officer Lawler were detailed to arrest violators. They were disposed to be stubborn at first, but when they realized that business was meant they weakened, but not before several were arrested and taken to po lice headquarters. Five of them agreed to closei up—Harry Grace, on Main, between First and Second streets Shaughnepsy, on north Second Madigan, on north Second John L. Tucker, at the Crapo house, and Abe Theal, on north Third street, Chief Fasig says there are not more than twelve unlicensed saloons in the city. This is mostly due to the Liquor Dealers' association, who have hunted down the unlicensed saloons and made the proprietors take out license. Chief Fasig says that no unlicensed saloon will be allowed to sell unless the license money is deposited.
