With Crushed Knee Wriggles Mile
and . Half 20 Quench Thirst.


RITZVILLE, Wash, July %
wriggIlng for a mile and a half on
his back, while suffering intense
agony from a broken and crushed
knee and from terrible thirst. Joe
Patterson, after as hours OF suffer
ing alone, was found by a sheep her
der and taken back to civilization
and medical aid, according TO a story
he told yesterday on his tirst visit
to Ritzville since the accident.
Patterson 10 prominent and
wealthy rancher 13 miles southeast
of here and was driving home when
the accident happened. His horses
were high spirited and, becoming
frightened, were soon beyond control.
Then the tongue OF the wagon broke
loose and the end dug into the
ground, hurting Patterson to the
hard road with terrific force. He lay
there, stunned and helpless, his knee
crushed and lacerated, from O'Clock
In the afternoon until next morn
Ing.
Then an increasing thirst drove
him to action. Lying fiat on his
back he began wriggllng up the road
toward small lake, over mile and
a half away. 1t took hours and the
agony from his injured knee nearly
crazed him, but at last he reached
the lake shore and lying on his stom-
Reh drank In great drafts OF the cool
water. This, for as hours, was all
that passed his lips.
A short distance along the shore
he saw sheepherder's shack, and
wriggled to Il. only to meet disap-
polntment. for II was vacant. How
ever, unable to go farther. he stop
ped there and the next day to his de-
light the herder returned. Then his
hours OF agony ended. for soon the
herder had secured aid and he was
moved to his home, where physi-
clan attended him. A hardy consti-
tuition has stood him in good stead
and he ID now on the road to com
plete recovery.

One day last summer Horace Mat.

searched all day, making widening oe-

On the afternoon of the second day

found stark naked in the four inch

bodies cracked and blistered by the

reclamation dam which will inclose a
reservoir having an area of two acres
and will hold over q million gallons.

Mr. Frazier viii shortly begin the
erection of a similar large reservoir on
his ranch. The colony on Whlskey
Creek is growing. Large crops were
raised last year on homesteads located
and titled for the first time, and in
the course of a few years the entire
valley will be settled up and will
furnish comfortable livings to those
fortunate enough TO settle In such
favored locality About ten home

THE SANTA FE WORK
BEING RUSHED
Big Improvements by the Com
pany in San Bernardino Pro-
crossing Rapidly Toward
Completion,

The San Bernardino Sun says: The
various contractors and the railroad
people themselves are rapidly showing
along the work on the various i'm
provements in the local yards. The
roundhouse is the one structure MAX
ing the largest showing. The con-
crete forms for the second section on
the west end are up while the pits are
all in on the third section on the east
end, making in all &c pits that are
in. One more section is to be put in.
when that portion of the work will
be finished. The immensely of the
structure is beginning to appear.
Contractors Noyes q Boggs are
now making more rapid Roadway on
the storehouse and general office
building. which with the storage plat
form IS 700 feet in length the founda-
tions for which are now all in. The
oil cellar is in, while the forms for
the superstructure at the east end
are being put in readiness and will
soon begin to be hoisted into place.
The pits and foundations for the
great machine shop. which will be
more imam OUU Ieel iOHBi are DelnB
put in as rapidly as the ground can
be cleared which is rather slow job
owing to its being necessary to keep
all the shop work moving st the same
time the construction work Is in prog
ress. The present site of the boiler
shop will be swallowed up in the new
machine shop, the foundations for
which are now completed nearly toi
the north line Of the present boiler
shop.
Other minor improvements are I'M !
der way everywhere, including the
new track work hundreds of track
men being daily employed on the
many changes and extensions in prog /
ress. The ballast is nearly all in for
the double tracking on | street and /
the new track will be rapidly prepar-
ed so that the old track can be low
cred to the new grade.
1t Is wonderful sight to traverse
the mile and more of yards and wit
ness the great changes in progress.
