A FORCED VACATION

On Sunday the editor got the false i'm
preston that he was member of the fire
company and ran with the hose cart
through the broiling sun. Soon after we
felt the unpleasant consequences in the
shape of slight attack Of heat prostration
while pretty sick for while we are now
on deck again having enjoyed vacation
spent in bed with head swathed in ice
water bandaees. We have tried from
our bed to keep track of events and to
get oat newsy paper, but it is a bit of
handicap and we apologize for any
short coming.

"A CoMPARlsloN

1t is our custom each week to contras
the Denison papeEs--not for the purpose
of throwing bouquets at ourselves, but to
find our short comings--to ascertain just
what news we failed toiget and why. b.
The comparison of last weeks papers
showed that the Bulletin contained TWEEN
ty-eight items of more or less news value
which The Review failed to report.
This made US feel pretty bad until we
looked at the other ! end Of the checking
and found that The REVIEW had garnered
in just one hundred forty,two items with
which the Bulletin failed to connect. q,

TWO MINERS INJURED.
Cuba City Man Has an Eye Knocked
Out in Mine Explosion Saturday.

Edward Parker, miner from
Cuba City, was taken to Dubuque
Saturday for medical treatment
He was terribly injured in a mine
explosion at the Gritty Six mine,
three miles from Cuba City on Fri
day evening, and as a result will
lose the sight Of one and possibly
both eyes.
Harry Cook, another employe
of the mine, was badly cut and
bruised about the head and body
in the explosion.
Parker and Cook were ordered to
set off a blast at the mine shortly
before the day shift went off duty
Friday afternoon. They attached
a three foot fuse to the charge and
applied the match. The fuse was
defective and premature explosion
resulted. Parker was closest to the
charge when it went off and he was
blinded by powder and flying de-
bris. Rocks we're thrown upward
with terrific force and one OF them
struck Cook on the head and in
ficted deep cash.
Parker's injuries were the worst,
as he will lose the sight OF one eye
and the other is threatened. He
was taken to Dubuque and specl-
alist attended him. The attending
physician will be unable to say for
some time whether the sight OF one
of the eyes can be saved.
Both Parker and Cook are mar
ried men ana live in Cuba City.
The accident was entirely due to
the fuse being defective, as the ex-
plosion was instantaneous after the
match was applied.

First Victory for Auto.

w. G. Knox encountered Mrs.
Ora Place in recent trip he took to
the Mt. HoQe-Mt. Ida country
with his automobile. Mr.. Knox had
as passengers Messrs. T. M. Young,
David Schreiner and G. Fl. Baxter.
Mrs. Place was Lancaster bound
and had her little daughter with
her in a single buggy. Upon seeing
the auto approaching from the
opposite direction she signalled it to
stop.
Chauffeur Knox stopped but the
question is did he stop quick en-
ough. Mrs. Place feared trouble as
the horse she was driving had
shown fright on previous occasions
of automobiles. She therefore
alighted with her child and at
tempted to hold the animal by the
bits. AS the machine approached
the horse reared, and struck her in
his descent, 1njuring her limb.
Mrs. Place made complaint and
had the driver arrested. The case
came on Monday before Justice
Shimmin and jury returned a
verdict generating Mr.. Knox.
The complaint was made of viola
ton of the new auto law, recently
published in this paper, referring
particular y to signals.

Painfully Burned.

While engaged in polishing a
kitchen range first of the week, Mrs.
HI. J. johnson, wife of the editor of
the Herald, sustained some very
painful although not dangerous
burns.
A can of polishing fluid exploded
and the contents were scattered
over her clothing which in an in
slant was mass of flames.
Prompt action on part of the
editors mother alone saved her life.
With presence of mind the flames
were smothered not a moment too
soon, and the fire extinguished be-
fore any great damage resulted.
Medical attendance was quickly
summoned and everything possible
done to relieve Mrs. Johnson's suf-
fering.
At present she is recovering from
her unfortunate experience and the
entire household is thankful that
her injuries are no worse.
We are now more fully convinced
than ever that explosives should
never be used in the manufacture of
stove polishes.

City Treas. Dyer is looking
after interests near Mitchell, S. D.,
this week.
When the case of the state VS.
W. E Bestor, charge being larceny,
came up before Justice Moses Mon
day it was determined that no in
eliminating evidence could be found
against defendant sufficient to bind
him over to trial in circuit court.
The affair was an outcome of the
4th OF July celebration at Beetown.
VIM. Longmeier Of Waterloo town
ship missed his watch and laid the
theft to Mr.. Bestor. About three
weeks ago he had Bestor arrested.
The watch turned up recently-was
found by Geo. Ishmael of Cassville,
so no evidence came to light that
the time-piece had been stolen.
Longmeier has his watch; Bestor
his liberty.
