Truth is certainly stranger than flc-
ton, as has been exemplifed at New
Haven, small mining town in West
Virginia. About eight months ago O
young man named Rudy Roush, coal
miner, was seriously injured by fall
of slate while at work in the mines.
All the physicians who saw him said his
back was broken and it would only be
question of time until he would die.
For weeks he lay in bed, not able to
move finger OF toe; he could not
turn over and at times could hardly
speak. The upper part of his body was,
to all purposes, dead and void of feel
Ing One evening he claimed queer
sensation came over him, and uncon-
sciously he began to move his feet and
work his toes and fingers. Some
thing" he said, seemed to raise me
up" and before any OF his family knew
what was being done, young Roush had
gotten up out of bed and walked across
the floor. Since then he claims new
life has taken hold of him, and 1t ID
claimed 1t is only question Of time
when he will be able to go about the
street without the use Of cane or crutch.

They Celebrate the Victories


Aunt Betsy presume to write up
such a grand affair as this picnic:
lis beyond the power of pen to

around the beautiful island where
the festivities were enjoyed. Open
to the gulf where the SalubriouS
breeze fans the cheek, one forgetS
that there is such Il thing as a

can actually taste the salt in the
air. We did not need salt, how
ever, rs there was no one even Il
little bit fresh. But it was IA case
of nOienS volenS.
The dinner was splendid. 1t
would take a column to give you
the menu. There was delicious
boiled ham, chicken, roast pig,
roast beef, pickles, preserves, jrl-
lies. And cakes? Well, in sight
of us there were pound cake, fruit
cake, jelly Cake and Spanish cake
(this was eaten up quickly SO
as to get it out of sight. The
soldier boy ground his teeth in
the icing and wished there were
more SpanlSh-cakeS- him to
annlhilate in the same way).
Bread was there by the barrel
and box. Lemonade was every
where. Two great barrels of this
delicious iced drink, made to per-
fection, stood upon the broad
veranda. This, like everything
else, was free to all. One hun
dred watermelons were cut and

Upon investigation it was found
that no bones were broken, but
severe bruises we're shown about
the head and blood was flowing
from his nose and one ear. There
was also compound dislocation
of the right knee and the muscles
of the right leg were torn and
bruised. 1t is not known whether
the man attempted to jump out of
the car or whether he was thrown
out.
The deceased leaves n wife and

rlore About Newlin Creek

In looking over the Newlin
creek proposition said promi-
nent city official, people are apt
to go only as far as Hardscrabble,
when, if they wish to consider it
fairly, they should go up into the
canon two or three miles. They
can then get better idea of the
volume Of water that is available
for storage in the reservoirs. As n
matter of fact the underhow, which
is an important factor, is not gen.
orally taken into consideration by
the ordinary observer. 1t is very
probable that the underf1ow alone
is sufficient to supply the town,
and in my opinion after the reser-
voirs are once filed there will be
as much of a creek flowing as there
is today"
