Fall Crushes His Skull.

John Probish. a foreigner employed
in the Wisconsin steel mills fell from a
scaffold yesterday afternoon. distance
of twenty-five feet, and crushed his
skull. The foundation of the scaffold
gave way and Probish. who was the
only one on it at the time, was taken
along to the ground. AS he landed at
the bottom a heavy timber struck him

was rushed to the South Chicago hospi-

covery.

That on said July s. reads the reso-

whatever relative to said charges.
Therefore be it resolved that Chief
Martin is hereby wholly and completely
exonerated and found guiltless of any
said charges and the said attorneys.
and each Of them are hereby condemned
for circulating. or causing to be cir

by their failure to appear before this
board to be false
1t is understood that there is to be a
meeting of the bar association in Gary
tonight and that the action of the town
board is to be the subject under con-
sideration.
Thought 1t Could Take Time.
It seems that the committee from the
bar association, which had the exam
nation of the charges against Martin
thought that it could take all the time
it wanted in making the investigation
and could report to the town board
when it pleased.
The members of the town board, how
ever did not take this view of the sit
Iuation They thought that the dis
| agreeable matter had been prolonged
long enough and they decided to put VI
with the procrastination of the bar as
sociation no longer.
The action of the board does not enc
the matter, for it is probable that the
! petitioners and the complaining mem
J bers of the bar association will carry
on their investigation to its conclusion
and it is hard to tell what they will do

An Impairment Question.

Your wife" impertinently asks a

and accord with those who scoff at
marital felicity, in the first place; in
the second place, the word play is old

Poor Bobby!

Ten minutes later Bobby was caught

The Word Post

Many persons wonder how we got
the word post" as applied to the
mails. 1t comes from the Latin
positus, which means placed there
fore it is a fixed station. From this
1t came to mean an established CON
yeyance of letters from one station to
another. and the place from which
the letters were sent out came to be
called the postof1ce. "Post,haste," a
word used by Shakespeare, means
speed in travelling, like that of post
or a courier

AS a general rule the lad at school

velop properly. An English authority
points out this lack of hours of rest
