William Negus Hurt.

While at work feeding an ore
crusher at the zinc furnace in this
city last Saturday, William Negus
was quite severely hurt. An iron bar
some how got caught in the lily wheel
of the crusher AMI was thrown vio-
lently against Mr.. Negus. the side Of
the bar striking him in the breast
and knocking him down. EXamina-
tion disclosed that he had three ribs
broken. Had the end of the bar
struck him it would no doubt
have pierced his body and killed
him. He will be laid up for some
time, but is doing as we'll as could
be expected. Mr.. Negus is esteemed
as one of our most exemplary cit
liens. There is much sympathy for
him, and qualification that his in
Jury is no worse.
