JOHN HERNDON WAS HURT

Angellne Brunell. the 12-year-old
daughter of Edward Brunen of Walk
erville. will probably die from injuries
received under the wheels of a heavy
ore wagon on Friday afternoon. The
little girl was riding home from school
in the wagon with. a number of other
children and in attempting to jump
out when she got near her home her
clothing became entangled in some
way and she was thrown under the
wheels. The driver drew his horses
up with a quick Jerk when he saw
her fall and while he prevented the
wheels from going over her one of the
wheels struck her a glancing blow and
inflicted injuries which are of a very
serious nature and it is thought will
prove fatal. Her spine was badly in
jured and she also sustained some very
severe internal injuries. ff p.
The girl died at 6 o'clock last even
ing. Coroner Richards was notified
and he will conduct an Inquest at the
house at 10 o'clock tomorrow. The
funeral will take place from the resi-
dence on Main street at o'clock to-
morrow afternoon.
John Herndon is lying at DIR. Wells
hospital with four broken ribs and a
punctured lung. which were sustained
in an accident at the Stewart mine in
Meaderville on Friday afternoon. He
was caught under a heavy fall of
ground from the hanging wall and four
of the ribs of his right side were
crushed I'm, and the jagged ends of the
bones penetrated the lung subs lance
so deeply that the air escaped under
the skin on the right side and breast.
Notwithstanding the serious nature Of
his injuries, however. II Is believed
that he will recover. He is 33 years
old and unmarried. The Stewart mine
is operated by the two Sam Stewards
of Walkerville and adioins the Mount
ain Chief. in which Dave Mayor was
killed on Friday morning.
Mike O'Leary became so Infatuated
a few minutes before o'clock yester-
day morning at having been elected
three times in rapid succession from
Phil Harrington's saloon on Upper
Main street. in which he attempted to
raise a drunken row. that he punched
his left hand through the window in
the door with the result that he very
nearly bled to death. His wrist was
cut more than half way in two and
the blood poured out of the wound
in three of four streams from the
severed arteries. The blood spurted
out at every pulsation of the heart and
flew in all directions.
Officers Stoneburg and Sinsel hustled
the man to the city jail, where Jailer
Frank Anderson bound a towel tightly
around his forearm and stopped the
torrent of blood. This was all that
saved his life. as he would have bled
to death IN a few minutes more.
He was removed as quickly as posi-
BILE to DIR. Wells hospital. where the
wound was promptly dressed. He was
pulseless when laid on the operating
table and very nearly dead. 1t was
found that one of the tendons and all
Of the arteries in the wrist. except
one, had been completely severed. The
wound was a very ugly one and Il re-
quired more than two hours to dress 1t
and bind up the arteries. Had IL not
been for Frank Anderson's thoughtful
ness and DIR. Wells promptness Hern-
don would be a case for the coroner
instead of a hospital patient with ex-
cellent chances for recovery.
