A PAINFUL INJURY.

Injuries the Hand of f. Kester.

An Emory Wheel Bursts and Badly
Injuries the Hand of ID. f. Kester.
Mr.. Daniel Kester, of the firm of
Kester Bros, machinists, met with a
very painful accident last Friday.
1t seems that he was grinding some
kind of tool on an Is inch emory
wheel when, owing to the rapidity
with which it was turning, it burst
open, throwing off numerous frag-
ments, pieces of which striking his
fingers, gashed them up in a dozen
or more places. Some of the wounds
are very deep and ugly, but he con-
siders himself exceedingly fortunate
that he did not only get his hands
torn'into shreds, but saved his life,
for had his face been over the wheel
at the time it burst it would have
mashed it into shapeless mass.
Portions of the wheel were driven
so hard against pieces of timber
near by as to make indention half
an inch deep. A piece of the wheel
struck an iron rod one inch by one
half and bent it half double.

Franklin Times: The editor of the
Times has talked with a number of
prominent Alliancemen in the coun-
ty since last Saturday, and as yet
we have failed to find single one
who endorses the Third party move
ment which was partially organized
here on that day. On the other
hand they claim that no man who
took part in that convention had a
right to say that it was movement
authorized by the Alliance, and that
when the time came, the Alliance, as
a body, would repudiate the whole
thing.

while others think the woman will be
