Peter Rudi, q German, who resides at

in the Erie colHery Monday afternoon.

with other injuries sustained deep cash

injuries is not considered serious. The
men were taken to Emergency hospital.

HOSPITAL DIRECTORS.

A meeting of the board of directors
of Emergency hospital was held on
Monday evening in the First National
bank. Messrs. William Woelker, J. d.
Shepherd, j. w. White, Julius Moses
and S. s. Jones were present. 1t ap-
pears that needed repairs and improve
ments are urgently demanded. The
roof Is in bad condition, and the
cellar walls need attention. The build
ing also requires painting. These i'm
provements are necessary before cold
weather 1t has been the hope of the
directors to receive subscriptions for
needed repairs. The state appropria-
ton is needed in carrying on the work
of the hospital, so that in some way
a fund must be secured to pay for
present improvements. Although a
debt must result, yet the necessary
work will go on as soon as possible.
There will be another meeting on Mon
day evening.

SELECT COUNCIL MEETING.

At meeting of the select council,
on Monday evening, Messrs. Surgert,
Nealon, Gilhool, Dilts and Eaton were
present. MIR. Swigert was appointed
president pro tenn. The city engineer
presented an estimate of the cost of
needed repairs on the Municipal build
ing calling for $500. This will afford
many improvements for the rooms,
and allow of heating them. Fire Chief
Mofiitt made his report respecting the
hose capacity of the fire companies.
He thought that only one-half the
amount of hose required at present be-
longed to the city. Bids for the Spring
street sewer were received. Hugh At
kinson will construct it for $l32 per
lineal foot; B. r. Blair made his bid
at $1.45. The severeral bids were re-
ferred to the appropriation commit
tee. After considerable general busi-
ness had been considered, the council
adjourned to meet on Thursday even

ALASKAN INDIAN TRICK.

ThrilIinE md Realistic Joke Per-
formed In n Religious Ceremony.
In one of the Alaskan religious cere-
monies big wooden wedge is driven,
apparently, through woman's head,
from one temple to the other. The eff
feet, says the Spokane Review, is ex-
ceedingly realistic, the woman's eyes
seem to start from the sockets and hang
down on her checks, while blood'flows
in streams. AS n matter of fact, the
wedge shown the audience is secretly
exchanged for one consisting of two
parts attached to n wooden band, COW
cred with hair, that is slipped over the
head. Thus It seems as If the butt end
stuck out on one side, the point having
passed through the skull. AT the same
time bladders containing blood, at
tached to the band, are punctured and
the blood flows down the woman's face.
The wedge being removed, she Is all
right again, and the phenomenon passes
for quasireligious miracle. The out
starting eyes are the eyes of a seal, low
cred over the forehead.
