Emery Butts, residing in "brick
row." employed as a 'greaser" at the
Riverside tube works, was the victim
of very painful accident, occurring at
the works about ten o'clock Thursday

brink, engaged in his work, when he
accidentally caught hold of a live"
electric wire. He received a severe
shock, which caused him to fail help
lessly to the ground below, a distance
of about ten feet. Butts alighted on
his back and sustained a number of
painful bruises on different parts of
his body, which will cause him to be
laid up for some time to come. He
quickly recovered from the shock of
electricity. Dr. Alley, of the Emerg-
ency hospital force, rendered the nee

is not at all improbable that the

purpose Of considering matters con-
corning an organization. As is gener-

may be that other matters equally as
important as the matter of organiZa-
