He was appointed from North Carolina to

placed in his mouth in order that he might
breathe should the sand cover his head
Scarcely had the hose been arranged wher
the sand buried the mans head from sight
After two hours rapid work Mr. Par
SELLS head was uncovered, but he was un
conscious. The rescuers worked steadily
and when he was dug out physicians tries
to revive the man, but all 10 no avail. MI
