Caught In Driving Wheel.

BARNwELL, May ga very sad, and in
all probability fatal, accident occurred
a few miles from here on Mr.. johnson
Blacks place yesterday morning about
1890 o'clock. Mr.. Calvin Creech, SON.
in law of Mr. Black, operates turnin g
lathe for Mr.. Black, the power for which
is obtained from gasoline engine. At
the time of the accident Messrs. johnson
Black, Hasin Black and Calvin Creech
were near the engine. MIR. Creech in
shutting off the engine in some way got
his left arm caught in the driving wheel
and in an instant was hurled from his
feet. Before the others present could
give him any assistance his arm was bro.
ken and mangled in dreadful manner
and his skull across the forehead was
badly crushed in and his face lacerated in
several places. Drs. E. L. Patterson and
R. C. Kirkland were sent for Immediately
and have been giving him every possible
attention. 1t is not expected, however,
that he will recover. MIR. Creech is about
% years of age, is married and has
two children.

Had First Chance.

The Honorable John G. Ray,
prominent citizen of Manchester, N. e..
and pioneer hosiery manufacturer al
the New Hampshire industrial school
one fall went squirrel hunting with his
son, Harry C. Ray. In the woods they
separated, and agreed to meet at certain
place at night.
Squirrels were scarce, and late in the
afternoon the son bought dozen of a
young farmer he met, in order to outdc
his father. On meeting his father he was
pleased to note that the elder man had
only three small ones.
"Well, father" said Harry, 81 guess
beat you out this time"
"Well, don't know" replied the faith
er.. II could have bought them first il
I'd been mind to-"
He had met the farmer first.
