Bad Wreck at Aoassiz
 Tuesday Afternoon

In which Engineer John Gray and Fireman Harding of this city were injured. Harding es- caped with a severe scalding, but Gray had both legs mashed be- low the knees and was severely scalded and otherwise hurt. They were brought to Winslow on No. 4 the same evening where their injuries were dressed at the company hospital, and MT. Gray was taken to the general hospi- tai at Los Angeles on No. 7 We'd desday. He will probably loose the use of his left leg below the knee.
 The wreck was caused by the cab striking a box car that was not in the clear on the siding. The engine was backing up and the tender passed the car without striking, but the top of the car tore the cab off.
 MT. Gray and family have the sympathy of their many friends in Winslow.

lar weekly meeting of the Elks the officers were installed to pre- side over the destines of the local order during the ensuing year.
 Past Exalted Ruler Sampson put on the impressive ceremony and that in itself sufficiently speaks for the work done.
 The feature of the evening was the presentation of a solid gold watch to Doctor Sampson by the lodge, appropriately engraved. In few well-chosen words A. F. McAllister paid tribute to the record of the doctor and the love which all the Elks bore him and for once in his life expression fail ed the doughty Doctor.
 No member of the order, in fact, no citizen of the town will be missed more than Doctor Samp- son, who leaves for Goldfeld, New, next week. During his stay in this town he has proven himself a capable physician and man in every way, large-hearted to a fault. and none of us but wish him the best of luck in his new field of professional endeav- or. We lose one of the best men that th1s community has ever had and Goldfeld is to be congratu- lated on it's gain.
 The Elks during last evenings proceedings vouched we'll for the brother that they have known so long and well and who more than any other man has done

If You
 Are Sick

It is because some of the organs of. the body are not doing their work well. There is a lack of that nervous energy that gives them motion. Con sequently you are weak, worn-out, nervous, irrit- able, cannot sleep; have headache, indigestion, etc. because there is not suffi- cient nerve force to keep the organs active and all low them to perform their natural functions. Dr. Miles Nervine restores health because it restores this nervous energy. T have been sick for year, and HdIa with me m ,,I, tried bsda many remedies and heard of Dr. Miles Nervire. I pro cured bottle, and before had taken half of 1t l was better. I would have had nervous prostration if I had not got this medicine when did, I con- tinued to, take 1t until I was entirely we'll. I have since recommended 1t to five of my lady friends, and they have all thanked me for doing so, for it benefited them ali.',
