The Road to Nowhere is a story for

Serious Accident.

While bottling soda ON Thursday Charley
B~remenkampf met with quite a serious
accident, which. without prompt surgical
treatment, might have resulted in his
bleeding to death. 1t appears that on
account of the generating apparatus being
too heavily charged a bottle which he was
filling exploded, cutting a deep cash across
the palm of his right hand. Three arteries
were severed and blood flowed profusely
from the wound. DIR. Hammond dressed
the injury and found it necessary to tie the
severed arteries, after which six stitches
we're taken il the hand. The young mar
is said to be be getting along nicely.

Smith was fortunate enough to have
seven tons Of ice stored in his ice house.

himself on his foresight. Now is 9 pretty
good time to begin cultivating Mr..

number Of people who will be willing tt
barter their earthly possessions for 1

is master of the situation in Eureka, and
if he is not the most popular man in towr
next Summer it will be because he will
refuse to share with his neighbors tn,

him.
