Fred Brett Injured.

About nine o'clock Wednesday
Fred Brett, son of MIR. S. b. Brett
who owns the news stand at the post
office, started to return home from the
Office. He jumped on his wheel in
front OF the store, but "a peddle hit u
rock and the wheel flew up, Fred was
pitched forward and struck theground
with considerable force. 1t was found
that his left arm was thrown out of
place and the radius broken right
where it knits at theelbow. Drs. Teas
and Hopkins were summoned and
worked for considerable time getting
the fracture exactly set as an injury
so near the joint is serious and may
easily result in a stiff joint. His host
of friends hope that the young man
will suffer no permanent injury from
the accident.

Wednesday the cement plant re-
ceived its first sacks in which the
product of the plant will be packed for
shipment. These sacks will be used
by the thousands and millions annual
ly and will be sent all over the coun-
try. The interesting feature of the
sacks is the lola imprint on the side of
each. There is a large double circle
with the words lola Portland Cement
Company printed between the circles
at the top and lola, Kansas" at the
bottom. In the center is a huge ear
of corn and acrosslthe corn in big,

Six rotaries are now running regu-
larly and seven Griffin mills and ce-
ment is being made right along. 1t is
gratifying to know that all of the ma
chinery is working perfectly and all
the machines prove to have a larger
capacity than required.
A dam has been built across Elm

Ben. F. Gregg, a Brakeman,
Has his Legs Crushed Be-
meath the Engines
Pilot
FRED BRETT BADLY INJURED
Pitched from his Wheel and
Broke one of the Bones
in his Left Elbow

AS Ben f. Gregg, one of the brake
men working on the Missouri Pacific
switch engine, started to step on the
engines pilot at LaHarpe Wednesday
he. slipped and fell backward, his
left leg being broken and the other
badly SCARED by the engines pilot.
Luckily the engine was stopped or he
would have been instantly killed
The engine had gone to LaHarpe to
do its regular morning work in the
yards and happened to be moving
slowly when the accident occurred.
Mr.. Gregg was standing on the track
waiting for the engine and as it slowly
approached he stepped upon the pilot.
His foot slipped and was caught be-
tween the pilot and the dirt foot path
in the center of the track. Another
brakem an grabbed Gregg and tried to
pull him free and the engineer stopped
the engine few feet from where the
accident occurred. 1t was found that
his left leg was broken below the knee
and that the lower parts of both of his
limbs were skinned and scratched but
not seriously, His injuries were
dressed by doctor who was hastily
summoned, the fracture set and when
the west bound train arrived he was
placed on board and taken to Eureka.
Mr.. Gregg came here "a few days ago
from Ft. Scott. His wife and two
children live there with his brother-in-
law, Mr., Hancock runs the lunch
stand.

Cement Plant Growing.

The cement plant is growing every
day. People who visited the works
Sunday. were surprised to find how
far along the iron buildings are. The
north section has been enclosed and
part of the rotaries running for some
time and the south section, double the
size of the other, is nearing compile
ton. The frame of the building is up
and as soon as the two other rotaries
are in place and the machinery and en-
gines adjusted, the building will be
enclosed. Two steam drills are now
required to get out rock fast enough
and there is magnitude about the
whole plant that really surprises peo-
pie every time they go near it. And
when it is remembered that another
plant just the size of this one is to be
built alongside, the eye feels as silly
as does the mind in computing figures
up in the millions.

WOMAN DENoUNCES HER SON.
If He Is Not Hanged She Will See
That He Is Put Out of the Way.

BY Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press.
Portland, Ore, Oct. "A mother de-
nouncing her son as cold-blooded
murderer and threatening, in case he
is not hanged, to see that he is put out
of the way by other means was the
spectacle presented here yesterday
when Mrs. Dora Lundroot told the
story of the killing of her husband
by her son. Louis Ketuemeyer, on Sau-
vles island.
Mrs. Lundroot declares her son
planned the deed two years ago, and
that he had been waiting only for
suitable opportunity to commit the
crime. The trouble, she says, arose
through jealousy of Keutemeyer be-
cause Mrs. Lundroot's mother decided
to Lundroot thirty acres of land and
gave nothing to Keutemeyer. She de-
clares Keutemeyer had threatened not
only his step-fathers life, but the lives
of other persons on the island, and
that If he is not hanged she and those
persons will see that he is put out of
the way.

HOW THE PRESIDENT WORKS.
Much of the OMciaI Business 1s Transacted at the White Houss
 Late at Night.

A warm June evening in Washington is not just the time for workout it is busy time at the white house. Up stairs nearly all the clerks and stenog- raphers have gone, and the doorkeeper who has charge of the door of the presi- dents office at night sits reading. The stiffness and quietude grows deeper and more pronounced each hour; the croak- ing frogs and chirping crickets in the Mall retard the tempo of the nocturnal chorus. In the cabinet room President Mckinley and Secretary Cortelyou con centrate their attention for hours upon the great mass of accumulated papers. A ring for glass of water is the only call that has summoned the messenger during four hours of night work. Every detail is carefully systematized so that the least possible delay is avoided in the dispatch of public business.
 In these quiet, still hours of night the important work of the chief executive is done, and it is very long past mid night when he passes out through the double doors to the residential portion of the white house to obtain rest pre- paratory to the influx of visitors that begins as early as 9:3O or even nine O o'clock.-National Magazine.
