George Long to Be Operated On For Appendicitis.

George Long, son of Druggist and Mrs. A. F. Long, went to Chicago Wednesday afternoon in company with Dr. John Ellis, and it was expected that he would undergo an operation this Thursday morning at the Presbyterian hospital for appendicitis. He had an attack of this disease a few days ago and suffered Intense pain, and decided to take no chances of another attack but to have the appendix removed at once. His father went to Chicago this morning and will witness the operation.
