It will be remembered that Risner was shot from ambush by unknown parties about a month ago, and at that time it was not thought he would recover; but such are the wonders of modern medical skill, and the determination of the patient, that he did recover, and promises to live long.

About a month ago Mr. Powell was operated on for gall stones and other complications set up.
