employe of Buxton & Co, was serious |
ly injured yesterday afternoon while !
working in the back part of the store. |

shelving not securely fastened, with |
the result that the structure fell over !
burying him in the debris made by the :
former contents of the shelving. The |
other clerks rushed to his assistance !
and he was taken out apparently more /
dead than alive. He was given prompt /
medical attention and he soon regained !

SWIFTY'S RUIN. A colored youth .
called swiftly" was probably the most /
notable prize fighter Phoenix ever pro-
duced, but he has fallen a victim of
habits formed by the associations of a
sporty life. The Williams News says:
Williams has some samples. and first
class ones in every respect. of what
the cocaine or morphine habit will do
with human being. Swiftly" the one
time pugilist, and whose strength ex-
celled the average mans in almost /
every way, walks the streets aimless-
ly, a human wreck from the effects of
the deadly drugs, and another wreck. .
even worse than Swiftly, begs the price
on the streets and squanders the same
for more damnation."
