terrible Accident.

George, the eldest son of Mat. Scheifer,
met with terrible accident on Sunday
afternoon last, which cost him his left
arm. He went to Getty Grove for the
purpose of shooting ducks, and in COM
pany with Herman Weiner, took boat
on the lake. Returning soon after noon,
some members of Mr.. Weiner's family
went down to the lake. and a little child
climbed into the boat and wanted ride.
George pushed the boat out the length
OF the painter rope and pulled it back
number of times, when he observed that
his gun, which he had left in the boat,
was slipping from the seat. He reached
into the boat and grasped the gun,
double barreled one, near the muzzle and
pulled it toward him. One barrel was
discharged probably by the hammer
coming in contact with the seat, and he
received the charge in the forearm and
elbow, tearing the flesh to shreds and
shattering the bones. One shot struck
Mr.. Viewer and one young lady who
stood near, but doing them very little
damage. The injured man went to the
home OF Mr.. Weiner, about halt mile
from the scene of the accident, where the
arm was done up and bandaged as best
it could be and he was driven home.
Drs. McMasters and Dubois were called,
and it was found necessary to amputate
the arm just above the elbow. Bad as
the accident is, and it is terrible, it might
have been worse. for he barely escaped
receiving the charge i'll his breast; and.
again, the danger of bleeding to death
was eminent. George Schelfer is an in
dustrious, quiet and well-behayed young
man of twenty-three years.

Burglary.

On Saturday night thieves entered the
lumber office of V. A. Wbipple and ram
sacked his safe, but they are enjoying no
larger bank account by reason of it..
Entrance was gained to the office by
breaking window and raising the sash.
The safe was not locked, only closed and
the bolts shot. The burglars, however,
went prepared to do heavy work as they
brought Bit brace with them which
they left in the Office. It had been stolen
from the shop OF Schuelke & Clay. A
drill was also taken, but had been drop
ped at the shop door. The iron box and
the drawers in the safe were locked, but
they were pried out of the wooden set
ting and carried into the lumber yard,
where the iron box was broken open
with coupling pin. The contents, con-
sisting of papers, notes, etc., were strewn
about and lett with the broken box and
drawers. Nothing was taken away, as
the thieves evidently observed that they
were of no value to them. The office
desk was ransacked and the contents
thro wn about the office. Mr.. Whipple
says the thieves would have lost money
on the notes they found in the safe-he
expects to-and would willingly have
given them ninety per cent. for collecting
them.
