A Fatal Injury.

SNJ
Martin Handy, a laboring man about
35 years of age, who had been working
in a sawmill at Painted Woods up to yes
terday morning, died at the hospital here
at about 8 o'clock this morning.
The death was the result of an acct
dent at the mill yesterday, shortly before
noon. The carrier in the sawmill, which
takes the logs to the saw, was connected
with the fywheel of the engine by a
rope, which acted in place of a belt. In
some way this became loosened, and
Handy stepped in front of the saw to fix
it. The carrier had stopped, but in some
way was started as Handy stood there,
and he was borne along against the rap
idly revolving saw, the sharp teeth tear
ing through the flesh and bone of his
left leg between the knee and ankle, cut
ting it off completely from the body, as
though it had been but a pine stick.
Help was at nee summoned, and the
limb was bound up hastily to prevent
the flow Of blood, which gushed forth in
a steady stream. The injured man was
then taken to Gust Johnson's place,
whence he was brought to town in a
spring wagon. DR.. Smith was sum-
moned, and found another amputation
necessary, but the shock from the injury
and the loss of blood we're such as to
prevent his recovery, and he fingered
until this morning.
The deceased was quite we'll known
about the city, having worked for John
Mack for some time. He went out west
some time ago, but returned again and
went to work out in the mill where he
received the injury which resulted in his
death. He leaves a wife and one or two
children, who are now living north OF
Washburn. They have been notified of
the sad accident, which d%eprives the
family of a husband and father.
