WARD KERNS
BADLY INJURED

Our townsman, Henry Kerns, yester-
day received a telegram from Pitts
burg stating that his son, J. Ward
Kerns, who is employed by the West
inghouse company, has been seriously
injured. There are no details. The
telegram, which is from the Charity
Hospital, merely states that Ward is
seriously injured that the accident oc-
Cured on October 1st and that an opera
tion will be necessary.
Mr.. Kerns has written to Pittsburg
for fuller information and is anxious
ly awaiting a reply. From Charles
Purcell, friend of Wards, who was
in Pittsburg last week Mr. Kerns yes
terday learned that his son up to a
recent date held position in the office
of the Westinghouse concern, but that
tempted by better remuneration he ac-
cepted position in the machinery de-
partment of the works.
Mr.. Kerns from the tone of the tele-
RraH Is COuNluCeu bildb WdIu > COuuA'
tion is very grave. He doubts whether
he is conscious, otherwise, he reasons,
a message would have been sent soon
er. He thinks the delay may have
been caused by an effort to locate the
family of the injured man.
Ward Kerns is a Danville boy. He
is a graduate of our High School and
he spent the greater part of his life Ill
this city. He has many friends here
who much regret to hear of the mis-.
fortune which has befallen him. Ward
served three years in the United States
Army in the Philippines. He was

A SUCCESSFUL
ADVERTISER

Among the young men who are max
ing headway in the advertising field
in New York is Harry |. Hunt, a ma
tive of Danville and who has many
warm friends in this city. Mr.. Hunt
began his newspaper career twenty
years ago in the office of the Bridge
port, Conn, Standard, rising from the
position of office boy to that o. assist
ant manager. In 1898 he became ad
vertising manager of the Bridgeport
Morning Union and three years later
went to New York as editor of News
paperdom. After two years he became
assistant advertising manager of the
National Cash Register Company, at
Dayton, Ohio, and turned out some
of the best work for this big concern
which does an immense amount of
thoroughly up to date advertising.
A little over a year ago Mr.. Hunt
returned to New York and became one
of the general advertising men. His
offices are at No. $50 Nassau street,
and he has been remarkably successful
in this great field where only the best
talent wins such a success as has been
made by Mr.. Hunt.
