PLUNGED into A CELLAR
Singular Accident to Joshua Lynch
While Riding a Bicycle.
Collided with Another Man Who
Thought to Be Sc riously Hurt.

Joshua Lynch, a pressman in the Govern
Third street northwest, while riding a
bicycle, this morning, collided with an
other bicyclist on Ninth street, between
Pennsylvania avenue and street north
west, and was thrown headlong into a
cellarway In front of Bailey's barber shop,
No. 3l2 Ninth street.
The IN juTed man was at once removed to
the Emergency Hospital, where his wounds.
d confusion OF the scalp and an abrasion of
the left hand, were dressed.
The accident was peculiar one. Mr.
Lynch he'd left his home with a young son,
to have the lstter's bicycle repaired, and
they were proceeding at a moderate pace
down Ninth street until they reached a
point opposite the barber shop. Here d
young men employed in a wall paper store
ad loinins, the barber shop W as Just mount
ing his wheel.
1t appears that the clerk had not fully
gained control Of his machine and was
swerving from side to side, when Mr.
Lynch, who was steadfastly Keeping 20
| .he right. was struck by IL and was forced
against the curb. The compact Incident
to striking the curb threw Mr.. Lynch over
tie handle-bars and through the open eel
larway-
Mr.. Lynch dived headforemost into the
cellar, striking on his head a ladder run
ning down TO the floor, and sliding down
| the ladder, distance OF about ten feet, on
bis left shoulder and hand. So great was
the impact that his machine bounded ONO
| and aloIfg the sidewal for considerable
distance
The injured man wasat once removed to
neighboring drug store and the Elmer
gency ambulance was summoned. After
the wounds had been dressed at the hos
pital, Mt. Lynch was placed temporarily
in one OF the wards to recuperate from the
shock 1t is thought that he will be able to
resume work in a few days.
About two months ago an accident,
similar TO that which befell Mr. Lynch.
occurred in the same place.

CATARRH.
COLD IN THEHEAD

IL acute Inflammation and swelling Of the
Olfactory organ which contains the
Nerves Of Smell. This organ is a long
ribbon-like membrane and hangs from
the roof of the Nasal passage in folds, as
seen in Fig. 3. When this condition be-
comes chronic, or permanent, it Is called
CATARRH. The folds become swollen
into a solid mass, 30 the air in breathing
cannot circulate between them hence
the loss of smell. TheCatarrhal nicrobe
soon makes its appearance, causing a
multitude Of small ulcers between these
folds. The pus from these ulcers Is very
poisonous and soon impregnates the
whole mucous surface of the nose, head
and throat with the disease. MEDICAL
works show cases where the tonslls have
become a corrupt mass of ulcers. It not
infrequently involves the whole bronchial
passage to the lungs, causing consGmp-
ton and death. It will be seen that
nothing can radically euro atarrh which
does not reach to the seat of the disease
between these folds of the Olfaetory
organ, and cleanse and heal these ulcers.
