to this section, rare luxury among his

Dr~Afiles Walker reports narrow
escape from serious injury Monday
night. Having peen called to attend
Mr.. J. r. Stephenson, he set out on
horseback at a gallop. On the hill near
the waterworks, he ran into loose
hanging telephone wire, which struck
him on the forenead and knocked on
his hat. He considers himself lucky
that the wire was not two or three
inches lower, for otherwise he would
have been badly in need Of doctor,
if not an undertaken, himself.
Mr.. ]. R. Stephenson met with a Sc
rious accident last Monday night, as
the result of which he will be disabled
for several weeks, if not permanently.
He had been in Yorkville all day and
did not leave for home until after dark.
1t was very cold and shortly after leav-
ing town he pushed his mule into a
gallop. On the hill, near Mr.. Claude
Inmans, the mule stepped into an es-
pecially rough place in the road and fell
forward with Mr.. Stephenson partly
underneath. Mr.. Stephenson's right
arm was broken at the elbow and
badly shattered. Mr.. Inman telephon-
ed in for DR.. Walker, who FASTENED to
the scene Of the accident as rapidly as
possible. He found that he could not
give Mr.. Stephenson proper attention
at Mr.. Inman's and had the sufferer
brought back to his office in York
Vile, where, after a lot of skillful work,
he succeeded in getting the fracture
dressed in a satisfactory manner. Mr..
James E. Carroll assisted DR.. Walker
with the setting and bandaging Of the
broken arm, and when the dressing
was completed took Mr.. Stephenson
out to his home, four anda-half miles
northwest of Yorkville, in a buggy. At
last accounts yesterday morning Mr..
Stephenson was resting as comfortably
as could be expected.
