Accidentally Shot.

The following written under date OF
Nov. %, from Colfax appears in the
Review OF today. "a fatal accident
occurred near Rock lake, in the ex-
IRENE western part OF the county,
yesterday in which Frank Hamblen
lost his life by the explosion OF shot
gun with which he was hunting. He
was using smokeless powder in a gun
which was not strong enough to with
stand the force of the explosive and
burst when it was fired, the gun bar
rel being blown to atoms, portions of
it striking Hamblen's head, lacerating
it badly, and it is believed fracturing
the skull. He was three miles from
home and was knocked unconscious.
For three hours he lay on the ground,
being alone at the time OF the accident.
He recovered sufficiently to walk
home, and after being washed and
having his wounds dressed felt much
better and ate hearty supper, after
which he retired, but was taken vio-
lently ill in the night and died about
midnight. Deceased was 90 years old
and lived with his parents. He had
a number of relatives near Rock lake
and some living in Colfax. The flu
neral will occur from the home OF his
parents tomorrow"
The Hamblen family formerly lived
near Delight in this county.

THANKSGIVING.

Tomorrow, Nov 20, is 'Thanksgiv-
ing day and the people OF this great
commonwealth have much to be
thankful for. 1t is easy for such as
have been blessed with a plentiful
supply of all that contributes to the
comforts of life to gather with friends
about laden board and feel thrill
of gratitude. This can be felt at no
appreciate cost. 1t is right and nat
ural but it is not sufficient.
There is a sentiment voiced by the
philosophers OF old, and embalmed in
the scriptures, that never grows trite.
1t is that to give is more blessed than
to receive. Many there are even in
the times Of greatest prosperity who
are never free from the clutch of pow
erty, into whose homes no gladness
comes and to whom charity bestowed
in the spirit of fraternity is welcome.
These are the people who should not
lie overlooked.
How easy when providing for ones
own table to remember the poor!
How much can be added to the hap
mess OF the family circle by the know
ledge that selfishness has been BAN
ished and Joy sent to other house.
holds if only for day! The associat-
ed charities of the cities of the state
have undertaken to care for such con-
tributions as may be offered. In their
plea they say: Remember that by
helping some poor family to dinner
you will better enjoy your own" Well,
remember it. There could not be a
truth easier to remember nor to re-
member which would be a more pleas
ing task.
