VICTIM Of ACCIDENT
Prominent East Boyer Farmer
Has Leg Broken.
JOHN II. MYER INJURED
Kicked by a Colt Both Legs are
Badly dashed and Bones of
Right Leg Broken.

On Saturday afternoon j. H. Myer
living three miles east of Denison met
with serious accident. He was
driving with his friend Jurgen SPAIN.
In some way the coupling became
unfastened and let the thills down ON
the heels of the colt he was driving.
The colt became frantic and kicked
with might and main. The first kick
struck Mr.. Myer on the left leg in
flicting painful wound. Before he
had time to move the colt kicked
again this time striking Mr.. Myers
right leg and breaking the bone Just
above the ankle. Both wounds are
very painful and it has been found
difficult to reduce the fracture on ac-
count of the gashes caused by the
colts hoof.
Mrs. Myer is far from we'll and this
accident. in the midst of the busy
farming season is particularly un-
fortunate. Mr.. Myer suffers great
pain and it will be several wees be-
fore he can be about again..

New Medical Criterion.

DIR. George II. Gould, editor of Amer
lean Medicine, approves the quite revolu-
tionizing plan proposed by DIR. c. A. L..
Reed before the legislative council Of the
American Medical Association that the
examining boards shall omit therapeutics
from their tests for the admission Of new
physicians DIR. Gould thinks this would
end the double and triple boards, (which
really serve to keep up distinctions be-
tween practitioners which are truly rids'
ulous." He says there is no quarrel be-
tween the various schools except on the
question Of dogmatic therapy, and it il
well known that some Of the irregulars
have such good instruction in the other
branches that they pass the State boards
with flying colors. DR.. Reeds idea is
that if candidate is properly grounded
in anatomy, physiology and pathology,
with obstetrics and surgery, he can be
considered competent to judge for him
self what is proper to do for patient"
and that it is mo concern of ours what
mis- dog1nas are" His particular school
or group need not even be known to the
examiners. Editor Gould says that this
might lend the whole campaign of este
opaths and other uneducated men to IL
cense to practice" The disappearance of

PLAN BIG WARSHIP.
AMERICAN SHIP DESIGNERS
WANT 4o,ooo TON VESSEL.
Ts Eclipse Giant Baftleshfp Which
Britain Proposes, Uncle Sam May
Build Leviafhan Twice the Size OF
sTse Dreadnaught.

Washington naval circles are agitated
over the report that the British admiralty
is about to lay down the keel for giant
battleship of $4,000 tons, to be armed
with eighteen Pinch gums. II is under
stood that the new ship will not only be
of no less than 10000 tons displacement
against 10000 tons of the Dreadnought,
but aside from the mere matter of supe-
rior size the design is believed to include
many novelties. some based on the expert
ence of the Dreadnought. Such a one,
for instance, is understood to be the con-
templated assembling of three guns in
each turret, so that, if the new ship is
equipped with six turrets, it will carry no
hess than eighteen guns in its main bat
terry. The calber of the guns, however,
will, it is believed, remain at II inches,
the present standard. The report of the
British plan has caused some of the bold
er spirits among the American ship de-
signers to proceed to greater length and
to propose the laying down of battleship
of 10000 tons displacement, placing the
American navy clearly in the lead. Naval
designers are believed to be willing to
undertake the construction of such ship.
1t would cost no less than S20,000,00O,
but in view of the predominance it would
give to America as naval power, it is
argued by the advocates of the PROPOSE
ton that such a ship would be an eco
nomical Investment by tending to insure
peace.
