Accidents.


E. E. Eaton, head sawyer in Wilson's
mill, received comminuted multiple
fracture of the left leg, just above the
ankle, while saving on Thursday. He
was canting a log, and had his leg
crushed between falling cant and a
piece of timber with rounded surface of
perhaps three inches. Doctors Pearson
and Stapp were summoned and upon
examining the wound were of the opinion
that the chances OF saving Mr. Ea.on's
foot were about one in one hundred.
However, they took this chance, band
aged the fractured bones together as best
they could, and the wounded part has
already begun to heal. In fact, it is
thought that the injured member will be
as useful as ever, after few months.
James Laggen, one Of the track layers
at work on the south side, while unload
ing railroad iron, last Thursday, slipped
and rail fell on his leg, breaking it.
Doctors Pearson and Stapp were sum-
moned, and on examination found the
fracture to be compound one. The leg
was set and the patient brought over to
the st. Joseph's hospital, where he is be-
ing cared for.

A FINE EXHIBIT.
The Western Washington Industrial
Exposition Makes Splendid
Showing.

The exposition which was opened in
Tacoma for the first time on september
10th and which will continue in progress
until October 10th, is an infant prodigy.
1t is, however, one Of the things for which
it is not necessy to plead the baby act,
for not only is it good as an effort OF
Western Washington, but it would be
creditable for sta ten times the age OF
ours.
In speaking of the exposition, it is not
necessary to confne oneself to glitterlng
generalities. The building is good archl-
tecturally and excellently well lit. Out
wardly it has been painted a light glow
ing shade of brown, which, in the glitter
of hundreds of scattered electric lamps
makes the building sparkle like great to-
paz, the light flashing from thousand
facets Within doors the same prodigality
of light makes the building brighter at
night than by day.
What an establishment it would be to
those eastern friends Of ours who preslst
in believing us to be inhabiting wilder
ness in the uttermost part OF the earth,
to saunter through the exhibit OF the
great dry goods firm, who show an array
of dress goods and lingerie which might
well represent Wanamaker's establish
ment.
But as we go farther, it is only to fare
better in way Of peasureable surprises.
The exhibit of native products are amaz-
ing. Take as an example the naptha
launch, cleaning in polished wood and
glittering metal, surrounded by family OF
smaller craft, row boat and racing shell
each finished with the same workmanlike
perfection.
The exhibits seem to be arranged with
an artistic perception of the effectiveness
of reaching a gradual climax, for in the
extreme rear Of the great building is the

GEORGE LuNr DIED IN A FIT.
Full statement of the Facts Show
No Foul Play.

The body of George Lunt, the morocco
currier. who died In a doorway In Boston.
has been brought to bis formar home at
woodlands. and the funeral will take place
today at the Methodist church. The pub
Iished reports of his death are more or less
incorrect. The facts in the case as learned
from Mrs. Susan Lunt, mother of the dead
man, and from Daniel Noyes. his roommate,
for long time. are as follows Lunt had
been in Boston all day Wednesday and was
on his way down Portland street to the Fast-
ern depot to take the train for Peabody
when he was taken suddenly ILL., He stag
gered along for few seconds then threw mn
his hands and fell heavily to the sidewalk,
Mr.. E. j. Converse of West Medford was
nearest to him and was the first to reach
him. His face was purple, the veins stand
ing out like knotted cords and he was stone
dead. Officer John Lee of Station l. WIN
was on the corner of Leverett street was
called over by Mr.. Converse and Lunt was
taken into doorway. Officer Lee recog-
nized Lunt at once. and knowing that Dan
lei Noyes, formerly of Deering, now Of
Peabody. was his roommate and most inti-
mate friend, sent for him to come and take
charge of the body.
Lunts body was removed to Station /, and
Medical Examiner Draper was called. He
said that death was caused by rush of blood
to the head and there was not, as has been
stated, any suspicion of foul play. Captain
Cain searched the dead mans pockets and
found beside silver watch, a pocketbook
and bunch of keys, eight dollars in money,
which Lunt's mother says was probably all
the money he had in the world. 1t has been
very dull Of late in the tanneries of Peabo-
dy, and the workmen, Lunt among them,
have had hard work to make enough to pay
their board. Noyes also confirms this state
ment. He says Lunt always carried all OF
his money in his pockets rather than trust it
In his room.
Noyes had the body prepared and accom-
panied it to the city. 1t was taken to Wood
fords yesterday afternoon. Lunt had a
brother in South Lincoln. Mass, who was
communicated with and was expected to ar
rive home on the Pullman last night.
