CiImer Bell Barely Escapes
A Broken Neck.

Last Sunday Gilmer Bell came
near losing his life. He had gone
to Mason's Mill with a party Of
about 20 to remain a week. Sunday,
while the young men were bathing
in a stream, young Bell, about 16
years Of age, made a spring from
the slippery bank to dive to the bot
tom. His feet slipped, which caused
him to almost turn a summersault.
The mud in the bottom of the stream
is a foot or more deep. The diver
went far enough over to cause him
to strike the mud with the back of
his head, and he was so doubled up,
as our informant says, as to almost
break his neck.
The wrench of his neck gave him
pain, but he was car
ried to the camp where his friends |
to him as best they knew
low. He came home Sunday after
loon with Allen Nuckolls and other
young men who visited the campers
Sunday morning. The whole party
will come back to the city today.
Young Bel is the only child of
Irs. Flora Bell, of Dallas, Texas.
Ie has been visiting relatives in the
ity during his vacation.

In The Circle for September, Ern-

Brothers and the Children's Court"
with such enthusiasm for the splend-
id results which those big Brothers"
are achieving in the lives of the child
rem of the tenements that the article
is an inspiration which must leave its

through the columns Of The Circle
"A Peace Message to the American

conveyed with dignity.
There are Wars which involve no
bloodshed. Thomas R. Ybarra, in
relating 1.-The Battle Of the Salton

LIGHTNING
Destroyed Barn and 20 Tons
of Hay.

During the electric storm of last
Saturday lightning struck barn on
the farm of Mr.. John Edmunds, on
the GAINESVILLE road.
Mr.. Green Hickman, who has the
farm leased, had just gotten his hay
crop into the building. The crop
was ESTIMATED at 20 tons, which
with the barn, was entirely con-
sumed. There was no insurance
over the contents. Mr.. Edmunds is
away from home, but it is generally
believed that he had no insurance on
the barn. If that be true the loss
on barn and contents will be about
81 900.
