Charles, the ninc.year-old son of Fran
els LaJoy, was severely hurt at Tupper's
mill about noon of Friday last. Near one
of the entrances to the building was a
rapidly-revolving auger set in the end of
the horizontal shaft of a circular saw. 1t
was some two and half feet from the
| floor. Charles. with several other child
rem from the neighboring tenements, was
playing around the mill, when he fell
upon the auger. 1t entered the inside of
the arm short distance above the wrist
ana tore its way along almost to the
shoulder. The skin was nearly all torn
off the arm, the muscles were lacerated
and one of the bones was displaced at the
elbow. The machinery was stopped as
quickly as possible, but not till the au-
ger-which was made to bore an inch
and-a-quarter hole-had been broken.
The boy was taken to DR.. Russers office.
where the arm was dressed by Doctors
Russell and Smith. Later in the day
these physicians and Doctors Sutton and
Eddy consulted as the eXpediency of an
amputation. They finally decided against
that operation. Saturday afternoon the
| boy was taken to the Fletcher hospital
Burlington, his father and DR.. Russell
accompanying him. 1t is believed that
the arm can be saved.

speed to Past High Priest w. Ii. Good
nOngh, who met with the chapter for the
last time previous to his leaving for Cali
fornia, there to seek as a stranger among
| the "workmen'' new home. After the
regular business of the chapter was con-
cluded, few words of farewell were
spoken by the high priest and other
companions, to which Companion Good
nough feelingly responded. The chapter
was then closed and the companions
present were 'called from labor to re-
freShment' in the shape of a cold COLA
ton. Some of the younger members
ministered at the Widespread board to
the eXter nal man, while pleasant speech
es and toasts and good wishes for the fu-

ing, as became the weather, the kind
words and hearty hand-shakings warmed
the hearts of 6ll. Among the good
things said was the following toast, Of
fered by the able and athletic tyler, in
behalf of the companions of Potter Chap
ter: Past High Priest Goodnough-may
God speed his journey, his future and his
fate; may he be placed in the northeast
corner of his new field of labor and there
have the working tools shown and their
uses explained to him by faithful friends
and companions; may he be passed to
the middle chamber of prosperity, and
finally be raised to the sublime degree of
health, wealth and happiness; may he
enter the chapter of honor and distinC-
ton and never risk his right hand in the
endeavOr to collect dues that are not just
ly his, but all good and true things marx
well may he never lose his integrity or
good name as he once may have lost the
charter of his lodge; may the rough and
rugged road of life be smoOthed for him
by fraternal hands, and when in the de-
cline of years he stands under the royal
arch his own hands have raised, may all
his companions, with one accord, say,
this is good work, true work, square
work, just such work as is wanted to
complete useful and happy life, and
finally, as he raises his hand to put in
place the keystone so nobly carried
through life, may it be grasped by the
Most Excellent, the Great High Priest
