A dispatch from Temple states:
The several hospitals and sani-
tariums of Temple are just now
taxed to their capacity with ap-
pendicitis victims, it being no-
ticed that this malady usually
travels in waves, and when it
afflicts a whole lot of people at
one time. All. portions of the
State are represented by patients,
which proves that the wave is not
local. Several physicians have
been among the number operated
on. All operations have proven
successful and no deaths have so
far occurred, although some se-
vere cases have come under obser-
vation of the surgeons.
