j. H. Atwood Is Sick.

When John H. Atwood returned
home to Leavenworth from attending
the Democratic state convention at
Wichita last week, he was obliged
to go to bed as a result of injuries
which he suffered in a railroad wreck
on the Burlington in southwestern
Nebraska about two weeks ago. He
was not seriously hurt at the time of
the wreck. but has suffered consider
ably from his injuries since. The sud
den stopping of the train threw him
forward and he struck his breast
against a seat. At the Wichita con-
vention a swelling developed which
caused him severe pain, and when he
reached home his physician sent him
to bed and an operation will be neces-
sary to remove a bruised gland.
