MET AN AWFUL DEATH
Workman Ground to Pieces In Wire
MAKING Machine.


Philadelphia. Dec 1.-One of the
most horrible accidents reported within
recent date occurred in the Thomas
Hamilton Wire Works, when Frank
Taper. 40 years old, an expert work
man, was caught in one of the great
wire-making machines and ground to
pieces before the eyes of his fellow
workmen. and before any effort could
be made to save his life. So quickly
did the accident happen. and so awful
was the scene, that all those who wit
messed it We're horror-stricken. and
for a minute or so could hardly mov.,
from their places.
Taper found that something was
wrong with the machine. He was try
ing to repair the damage. when the
next thing his fellow comrades saw
was his body being rapidly drawn
through the machine where the strands
of wire were made.
So quickly did it all happen that not
one of the men in the place could rem
der any assistance. Not a cry escaped
the lips of Taper and almost as
quickly as he was caught in the intri-
cate machinery was his body groun;l
to pieces. all except his head The
police said it was one of the moss
frightful cases they ever handled.

The Renowned Liberty Bell May Pass
Through This City on its Way to
ST. Louis.

The people of Denison may soon be
accorded the rare opportunity of seeing
the historic liberty bell which will
soon be on its way to the Worlds Fair
at ST. Louis. II present plans are car
ried out the bell will traverse a large
number OF the western states before
its arrival at the Exposition. This
will be done in order to give the peo-
pie OF the western states who have not
had an opportunity of seeing the his
torie old relic chance to view it.
The bell will be started on its west
ern trip early in this month, and will
require nearly mouth for it to reach
its destination as it will pass over the
principal railroad lines in Montana,
North and South Dakota, Wyoming,
Colorado, Nebraska. Minnesota, Iowa,
Missouri Arkansas, Kansas, Indian
Territory and Oklahoma. The exact
route through this state has not yet
been decided upon, but as it will stop
at all the principal cities along the
route. it is to b. nop.d that Denison
Will be included in the itinerary.
AS tAis is the last time the bell will
be per nitted to be removed from its
resting place at Philadelphia it was
thought wise to allow as many people
the privilege of seeiLg it as possible.
The bell is the property of the city of
Philadelphia and at the close OF the
fair it will be returned to that city
never more to be removed.

Good Advertisement For The

A movement is on foot among the

on the Fourth, and the city council
will undoubtedly see that the business
streets are in proper shape for the big
parade. There is ample time between
now and the Fourth to look after all
the defects. BY that time the sewer
bitches will have been filled and the

serves as an advertisement for the diff.
