rs STILL ALIVE.
Archie Chickering, the Young Man
So Badly Burned ny Electricity
Last Week IL Doing Well.

Last Week IL Doing Well.
Stranger than fiction, Archie
Chickering, the young man employed
by the Citizens Telephone company,
is still alive and everything points to
his recovery, although 300 volts If
electricity passed through his body
burning one hand entirely OIL and the
other SO badly that it could not be
saved.
Last Monday morning DIR. Smith,
of Grand Rapids, and Drs. Morris and
Plnkham, of this city, went TO the
home of the young man and amputa-
ted his right arm at the shoulder and
his left arm half way between the
wrist and elbow. Archie stood the
shock very we'll and under the care
of surgical nurse from the Butter
worth hospital is reported as getting
along in fine shape.
How any one could stand the awful
force of 300 volts of electricity and
be burned in the horrible manner in
which he was burned and still live
seems almost beyond human under
landing but there seems to be moth
ing now to hinder his recovery and
although helpless cripple, there
may still remain for him many days
of life. The telephone company is
sparing no expense to make him as
comfortable as possible and while
there is no bright future for him,
still he may be numbered among
those on this side of the grave.

STOCK COMPANY TO BE FORMED

The deal for the transfer of the

still in progress of contamination, and
it is very probable that it may be car
ried through. II is understood that
the local saloon men who are interest
ing themselves in the matter have Sc
cured sufficient amount of money to
carry out the purchase of the prop
erty. Mr.. Bets figure is said to be
100000, and the amount has more
than been pledged. According to in
formation that has been given out by
those who are said to be on the in
side a stock company will be organ
lied in a few days and the purchase
of the property made. The corpora
ton will be composed of a number of
saloon men of this city and several
other men who are willing to invest
their money in the enterprise In ad-
ditiOn several large brewers in Phila-
delphia will take a large block of
stock and Mr.. Betz, it is said, will
hold about so per cent of the shares
The deal has been under consideration
for some time, and while those who
are engineering the deal are reticent
about the plans it is assured that the
scheme will be a go.
