Perry.
The seven-year- old son of Mrs Voel-
ker, living north of town, is lying at
the point of death suffering from lock-
jaw. Drs. Ross and Mowrer are at
tending him. About two weeks ago
the boy ran splinter into his heel,
but he paid little attention to it as it
did not give him much trouble at the
time. He was able to go to school
right along and was in school up to
Thursday. On Friday it was thought
best to have the splinter removed
since which time the boy has been in
a critical condition. He has gradually
grown worse until now he can not walk
nor eat. He talks some without open
ling his jaws. He was given anti-t oxine
treatment last evening, but there is lit
tie hope for him.

could be done and after lingering in an
unconscious state two hours the child
died at $50 o'clock.
