Thomas II. Colby is thanking his
lucky star for m escape from serious.
if not fatal injury. He had a load Of
gravel in his dump cart, the whole
Weighing from one and onc-half to
two tons. He fell from the seat direct
~ in front of the wheels and the two
IN one side passed over his legs.
Fortunately the ground where he fell
was very soft 50 that he was forced
into the dirt, instead of having mis-
limbs crushed as they would certainly
have been had the ground been hard.
iIc was severely bruised. but 10 bones
were broken. Ii is not expected th1t
any permanent injury Will result. and
it is hoped that he will rapidly recover
from the bruises which he received.

ONLY PART A COUNTERFEIT.
Famous Silver Certificate Mostly Printed
From :. Stolen Genuine Plate

Famous Silver Certificate Mostly Printed
From n Stolen Genuine Plate.
DENVER, May 30.-According to q
story printed in the News, the govern
ment secret service officials here have
just received the information that the
plate from which the famous monroe
head" 500 counterfeit was printed was
not the work of Taylor and Bredell, the
confessed counterfeiters, but was stolen
from the government vaults at Wash
ington, only the work printed in colors
being done by the men now
under arrest. 1t is said the
theft was perpetrated five years
ago, but it was not until recently that
an expert engraver could be found to
execute the color work SO that the plate
could be used. 1t is alleged that the
counterfeit revenue stamps, which are
known to have been the work of Taylor
and Bredell, are NOT remarkable for
cleverness, while the counterfeit bill
was SO perfect as to deceive the govern
ment experts, SO that the treasury de-
partment was compelled to withdraw
the entire issue from circulation.
