NEARLY LOST
HIS LIFE
Percy Gardner Has Close
Call at Lime Kiln
Yesterday

Percy Gardner OF this city had a
narrow escape from death late yester-
day afternoon and as a result OF his
experience Will be confined to his
home for several weeks to come.
Gardner was operating the electric
hoist at his lime kiln south OF the
city, filling the kiln with rock from
the quarry. He was watching the
car as it made ascent to the top OF
the Kiln and reached out his hand to
shut off the power.
He missed the lever and his hand
became entangled ia a series of cog
wheels in the hoist. Instantly his
hand and arm We're drawn between
the wheels. In endeavoring to save
himself he was thrown against the
machinery and frightfully bruised and
torn. His left hand is badly lacerated
his arm broken and it is feared that
he has been internally injured
The machinery was stopped as soon
a spossible and he was rushed to the
home OF Dr.. Won Radesy in this city
where his injuries were treated This
morning it was necessary to ampU-
tate the little finger OF his left hand
but the attending physician states that
he does no fear any further serious
results from the accident.
His entire left side is more or less
bruised and injured and while it is
almost certain that he was internally
injured they are not thought to be Of
III alarming nature.
That he escaped with his life was
miracle and but for his presence
Of mind would probably have been
ground to pieces in the machinery.

HOL-DUPS

In Coldfield and Make a
Good Haul There
Last Night

GOLDFiEl.D, Jan. 9-One of the
boldest and most daring hOld-ups in
the history OF the camp took place
at $50 last night. The victim of
the crime was Mrs. Rose Keidel, wild
ow of the late Charles H. keidel, the
present owner of the Bank saloon on
Main street
Mrs. keidel was alone in her home
on Ramsey street and was summoned
to the door by a loud knocking On
opening the door she looked into the
end of a revolver and was instructed
TO throw up her hands. The two rob-
bers followed her into the house and
after compelling her to face the wall
tore the house literally to pieces in
their search for valuableS.
Two valuable earrings worn by the
lady We're taken from her and about
Si3 in coin After completely wreck
Ing the apartments they command
ed her TO cook them a steak. this she
could not do as the desired article
was not in the house After telling
her to remain where she was they
made their exit through the front
door and at late hour this morning
had not been apprehended.
The men who did the deed were so
bold that they did not take the precau-
ton to even pull own the window
shades and any one passing the house
at the time could have seen them ar
their work. The police department
are working on several clues and have
hopes nf landing the men.

RUEF IN

ly Apartments for a
Common Cell

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 9.-After
ei.jOying the benefits Of private pris-
on. the guest of the state, with his
own private cook, man in waiting and
a personal friend as his custodian, a
surprise was handed out to Abe Ruef
yesterday when the order was issued
sending him to cell in Branch No.
, Of the County Jail at Ingleside.
From now on the dethroned boss of
the San Francisco boodlers and graft
tiers will share the fare with his for
mer chief and co-partner, Eugene B..
Schmitz and also in the immediate
vicinity of Louis Glass, the two latter
under sentence of 5 years ir the pris-
on at San Quinten for bribing the
Board Of Supervisors through Ruet.
Ruef has pleaded guilty to the same
charge as the other men but as yet
has not received his sentence.
That Ruef's old influence is fast
passing to the unknown was shown
Yesterday when he used every endeav-
or to have the order recalled that
was to place him in a cell in the
branch Jail. All his efforts went for
naught and until the court passes sen
fence and he starts on his journey
across the bay his headquarters will
be in the county bastile.
