A Serious Accident.

Chance KILLER, the veteran engineer,
who was caught by the shaft on Frank
Morris threshing engine two weeks ago
recovered sufficiently to return to his
home at Staples MINI. on Wednesday,
Mr.. KILLERS escape from death was very
narrow. His clothes were entirely torn
off while he was bracing himself to keep
from being thrown around the shaft.
While he does not remember it, it is
quite probable that at the last he was
drawn to the shaft and thrown around
while the remaining part of his garments
were being stripped from him, as he has
injuries too severe to be accounted for
otherwise, both arms being dislocated at
the shoulder, his shoulder blade cracked
and many severe bruises. He is still in
rather bad shape but will recover. He
is about sixty years old and probably
owes his life to the fact that just pre-
vious he had taken off some of his clothes
to shake out some chaff and when he
put on his jacket he thought it best not
to buckle the wrist belts because Of the
possibility of just such an accident as
befell HIM few minutes afterward.
