burned and shocked by live wire this
forenoon. .-a @.-
Ever since the tornado the wires have
been down at Sixth avenue S and

into place.
While he was at work team draw

Water company passed, and when the
horses stepped in to the water in which
the wires were lying, both Of the AMI
mails were knocked down. -
Westgarg rushed toward them and
started to pull out and cut the wires
with his plyers. While at work, he
stood in the water, and touching a live
wire, he was knocked backward. When
picked up he was unconscious and there
were severe burns about both hia
wrists. The shock had been very Sc
we're and the man had not regained con-
seriousness when he reached the city hos
