A RACE FOR LIFE

G. A. PATTERSON RACED Is MILES.
y AGAINST DEATH IN AN EFFORT
TO SAVE HIS SON. WHO WAS
ACCIDENTALLY SHOT AND
LOST.
Driving his big auto at nearly a
mile a minute, Editor C. A. Patterson
of Linton raced against death Wednes-
day afternoon and lost II.
For twenty-five miles he sent the
auto over the country roads to this
city from the Missouri river bottoms in
Emmons county in a vain effort to
save the life of his 14-year-old boy,
Harry, who had accidentally shot him
self in the left arm while waiting in
the auto for the return of his father
:whow as in the woods hunting deer.
But the race was for naught, and the
lad passed away at st. Alexius hospi-
tai at 9:45 in the evening from loss
of blood and shock. 5s
The sad story follows: n.
Mr.. Patterson with friend and Har-
ry, went to the river to hunt deer in
an auto. Reaching the timber the
father and the other man ahghted and
shortly afterward shot a deer. Just
then they heard a report from the
neighborhood Of the auto and going te
the machine found the lad in the real
! part of the auto covered with blood
A loaded shotgun had been left lying
in the bottom of the auto, and tht
boy getting cold had lain down b.
side it with a dog he had along. Some
how, in playing with the dog, tn.
gun was discharged, the contents rip
ping up the left arm of the boy in {
! frightful manner The arm was hasti
| ly bound up as best could be done with
! the means at hand and while ths
friend held the boy the father drove
| the auto as he had never before, fol-
medical aid. An operation was use
less, as the boy was past human ai6
when the doctors reached him.
| Mr.. Patterson is well known in this
city, wherc he has number of friends
who will deeply sympathize with hin
in this dark hour The remains viii

greatly pleased over court develop

MUMMY OF|ND|AN
TO Be EXHIBITED
FOUND IN A ROCKY CAVE ON
KNIGHTS ISLAND WRAPPED
IN PRESERVED FURs,
Believed to Have Belonged to Age
When Alaskans Were of Higher
Civilization Than History Notes in
Present Generations = Remains
Have Been Brought to Seattle.

Seattle, Wash, Nov. 27.-There ar.
rived in Seattle on one of the last boats
of the season from the islands of the
Alaskan archipelago the splendidly pre-
served body of an Alaskan mummy, the
first to be received from the north. The
body was brought south by Edward
Hardy, a well known pioneer Alaskan
of fifteen years experience, who intends
to exhibit the mummy at the Alaska
Y~ukon-Pacific exposition, which will be
held in Seattle in 1909.
High in Civilization.
Hardy holds strong beliefs that, in
many ways, the Alaskans of prehistor-
ic days were considerably higher in
point of civilization and discovery than
history credits. At the exposition CT
1909 there will be mummies of ancient
Egypt, which can be compared with
those from Alaska.
Hundreds of Years Old.
The splendid specimen which Hardy
found buried in a rocky cave on
Knights island is evidently the body
of a chief or worrior OF note and has
probably been lying undisturbed for
several hundred years. The body af-
ter being embalmed was wrapped in
ton, the dry cold air of the archipelago
acting as a perfect preservative. The
body was stretched out on a plank to
which it was still attached when die
covered
