known hardware dealer of Ridgew ay

Mr.. A. G. Allen of Springfield town
ship, announces his candidacy this
week for Supervisor from the first
district. Mr.. Allen is too well
known to need introduction. He has
lived in Springfield township probably
fifty years, is gentleman of char

we'll and faithfully if elected.
Clarence Christen adds his name to

faithfully and well, without doubt.

Hand Crushed in Mangle.

Mrs. Grinna, a lady living in the
fourth ward and who has been en-
ployed in the DEBORAH Steam Laundry
for some time, met with serious
accident on Friday morning, which
will lay her up for some time. She
was removing the cloth from the
rollers of the mangle. and holding
the cloth in one hand, attempted to
throw on the belt with her foot. and
in doing so her hand was pulled in
between the rollers. crushing it badly
nearly up to the elbow, before the
mangle was stopped. Fortunately the
rollers were not set tight, so that the
accident is not as bad as it might have
been. DR.. Daubney was called and
found the muscles and flesh crushed
badly, but no bones were broken, and
she is getting along much better than
was at first feared she might. She
Will probably regain full use of her
hand and fingers.

A new Incorporation, composed of
A. O. Baker, president, H. A. War

secretary, and H. q. Hjerleid,
treasurer, was recently organized and
has acquired the patents of valve

quite large. At present they are

here in the not distant future and
manufacture them in this city, which

tise this low rate again this year
