A Serious Fall

Last Thursday morning as MI Er
Daniels was carrying an armful Of lum
Der to one OF the scaffolds on the new
school building, the ladder slipped side
ways 10 the ground, preciPitating Mr.
Daniels about fifteen feet with the lum-
Der on top. One of the men on the
building quickly descended and found
him perfectly helpless and partially un-
conscious. Mr.. Hartman carried hlm
TO his house where it found that his face
and ear we're badly cut and his knee so
so badly bruised that it was impossible
for him to walk. Mr. Hartman took
him to his home at KirwIn- At present

More About That Railroad.


We see by the Stockton News that
Mr.. Murphy visited that city just prior
TO his coming to Phiuipsburg and gave
them a few points also on the new rail-
road scheme. AS stated last week this
company has secured bonds as far
north rs Russell and that county will
vote on a bond proposition December
DIST. 1t looks as though the people of
Western Kansas are on to the great ad-
vantages to be derived from north

no instance have the bonds failed to
