material for the courts. Let the good
work 60 on, and let every public robber
be made an example that will be warn.

raj greed for gain and insane craze for
speculating is proving to be one of our
country's greatest curses, and the law
should be used to the fullest extent to
protect the people. Every banker who
uses the peoples money for speculating
purposes should, upon the first intima-
ton of this kind of theft, be brought to
speedy justice. 1t is an alarming and

A FATAL ACCIDENT.


Last Friday evening about o'clock .
sixteen-year.old son Of Fred Schermer,
Of the National Hotel, met with an acci-
dent that proved fatal a few days later.
The facts in the case - given by the lit
tie ten.year.old sister Of the boy, who
was the only person present when the
accident occurred, are substantially az
follows: The boy and his little sister
were romping and playing on q lounge
in one Of the rooms. and the son had a
long, sharp pointed knife or dirk which
he was carelessly flourishing and bran
dishing in the air, playfully initiating
some jussler which the boy had proba-
bly, seen at some time giving an exhi.
bition Of his skill. BY some unfortunate
circumstances the direction Of the knife
in one Of the strokes or hourishes was
turned downward and struck the inner
side of his left thigh. The force Of the
descent drove the steel deep into his
thigh and the pain or excitement Of the
injury caused him to give jerk to one
side which moved the point Of the blade
(already buried in the flesh) sideways
and severed the femorsl artery and its
branch, some nerves and nesrly cut of
the accompanying vein. The cut was
but short distance from the body where
the artery is large and where hemorrhage
Is difficult to control, and before it could
be stopped or medical aid could be
secured the boy had tainted away from
loss Of blood. However medical aid ar
rived as soon as possible, but too late to
save the patient. The wound had ceased
to bleed from lack of blood and every
effort was made to save the boy. About
twelve that night the attending ply
sicians succeeded in partially reviving
him so he could talk. DR.. Shepherd now
proceeded to tie both ends of the severed
vessels, but the patient was too weak to
permanently rally and soon began sink
ing again. All effort to keep him alive
proved futile and Sunday about o'clock
p. m. he sank from fatal exhaustion.
The accident was an extremely sad one
and will be great shock to the family.
Especially sad will the news be to his
mother who was in Florida at the time
of the accident. The boy was healthy,
robust fellow, and was the last one ex-
pected to be taken away so suddenly.
The funeral services were held at the
family residence on Monday evening at
8 o'clock, and the remains were taken to
Lynchburg on Tuesday morning for in
terment.
