AS member of the school board of

of the title of school boomer. We
would much rather be adveT tiSed as a
''school boomer" than "moSsback, -

to all advanced ideas and movements
for the betterment of our city. The
authors Of the above item appear to
delight in opposing erything that
tends to the enlightment and progress
of our city.
There is no disposition on the paIt

balance of the Old fair ground pro-

The genuine moSsback is a predicter

town, and everything is going to the

possibly can.

Milwaukee Physicians Opinion.

"There is nothing, in my opinion,

adelphia, and it might be interesting
to learn that records of the PennSyl-
vania hospital foI ten years finally re-
suited in the passage OF laws which are
intended to prevent the small boy
from causing their own funerals.
The hospital treated annually more
than 100 cases of lacerated hands re-
sulting from toy pistol wounds. For
ten years 40 ger cent of these cases
developed into lockjaw and ended
fatal. A report to this effect was
rendered to the city authorities, with
the result that laws were passed
which were enforced and which made
accidents of the kind practically un-
known in Philadelphia.
''The treatment of toy pistol
wounds should be thorough. Care
should be exercised to keep the wound
open until a physician has cleaned
and dressed it. If this was always
done many lives would be saved each
year. When wound of this nature
is closed before being cleaned the
lockjaw bacillus gets in it's deadly
work. Physicians should not be
called upon to treat injuries resulting
from toy-pistol wounds, for the city
authorities should make it impossible
to obtain them. / suppose, however,
that we will have the usual number
of cases of this nature from now until
after the Fourth of july

WELL KNOWN WOMAN
DIES OF CONSUMPTION
Mrs. Olivia Kallerud Passed Away at Her
Home YESTERDAY.


Mrs Olivia Kallerud, better known
as Leva Larson, died Monday morning
of consumption at the home of her
father, Ole Larson, after a lingering
illness. She was married June, 1902,
to Oscar Kallerud and went to Chi
cagO to live. She had been there only
about six months when she caught
cold, and gradually grew worse.
Three months ago they moved
to the state of Washington in the
interest of her health, but she con-
tinued to fail, and she came home a
few weeks ago. Everything was done
to stay the progress of consumption
by their family physician and loving
hands, but all efforts were fruitleSS.
She passed away Monday morning at
7:l5 o'clock, June 20.
Mrs. Olivia Kallerud was born in
the town of Sigel on February "a.
1881. She came to Grand Rapids with
her parents in 1899, where she con-
tinued to reside until she was married
in June, 1902. She was member of
the Swedish Lutheran church, faith
full Christian woman beloved by
everybody who enjoyed her acquaint-
ance. Her death is greatly mourned
by relatives and friends.
The funeral services will take place

WORK OF A
GIANT CRACKER
Skaters Right Hand of I. Akey
==His Face Badly Disfigured
by The Accident
LIGHTED THE CRACKER
WHILE HOLDING IT
Warning to all Inclined to Be
Noisy Next Saturday,
July 4.

A cannon fire cracker shattered the
right hand and disfgured the lace of
t. Akey, at Rudolph, Saturday night
about o'clock. He was taken to
this city on the 9:37 Milwaukee train
and placed in the care of DR.. Rockwell.
With the assistance of doctors Harvey
and Pomainville, DR.. Rockwell
amputated the hand above the wrist
and dressed the other injuries. The
patient is now resting comfortably at
Dr.. Rockwe'l'S hospital.
Mr.. Akey was seen yesterday by a
representative of the SEMl-WEEKLY
REPORTER. He said that he lighted
the fuse of the giant cracker while he
held it in his hand. AS the fuse was
about three inches long, he thought
he would have time enough to throw
it. ''It must have been defective"
said Mr.. Akey, ''for it went of the
moment | touched the match to it.
| realized nothing until saw the bones
and fingers of my hand flying about.
The bones were hurled against my
face and you can see for yourself how
[ now look"
The fire cracker tore away every
particle of flesh in the palm of the
hand; all that was left of the hand
were the first and last fingers and
these were only attached to the arm
by few cords and tendonS. There
were large cuts on the forehead and
on the chin.
II think this will be good warn
ing to those who intend to celebrate
the Fourth with loud noises this year, :"
said Mr.. Akey. 81 had an accident
with a fire cracker when boy, but l
forgot it this year. There ought to
be a law against the sale of these
dangerous and Internal fire crackers. !"
Mr.. Akey's advice should be taken
to heart by every one who are think
ing of using fire crackers or toy pistols
next Saturday. Let it be remembered
that over so per cent. Of the accidents
resulting from the use of fire crackers
and toy pistols every Fourth prove
fatal
