George Heide, aged ten years, and
living in west Hancock. met with a
very painful accident last evening
while playing with some dynamite caps
that had been found by some compan-
ions. losing two fingers OF the left hand
in consequence.
Some boys had found box of the
caps In the vicinity of the locality
where the new railroad spur for the
Hancock mine is being constructed.
and not knowing the dangerous nature
of their find. were playing with the ex-
plosives in the vicinity of Sulllvan's
curve on Railroad avenue. They am
used themselves by removing the caps
from the shells for the purpose Of
using the latter as whistles. They had
successfully operated upon several
without serious results, when one that
young Heide had in his hand suddenly
exploded with great force, destroying
the second finger and the thumb, and
injuring another finger so badly that
IL is doubtful IL 1t can be saved.
Mr. ana MIS-. CHdfleS ftelue were
away from home when the accident
happened and did not know of the ac-
cident until their return late in the
evening. The boy was hurt at about
half past and as his parents were
away he went to the home of his
grandmother a short distance away,
where a physician was summoned. DR..
Powers and Matchette dressed the in
jured hand and the boy is now doing
as well as can be expected, though
still suffering considerable pain from
the injury. 1t is regarded as very for
tunate that the accident was not more
serious. as the youngster might have
been killed had the cartridge happened
to have been pointing towards his
body. There were seven or eight other
boys and girls standing around, and
their escape from being injured when
the explosion occurred is considered
to have been very narrow.

NRDE was fighting for his very
 life. The notes given by New
 mark & Orde would come due
 beginning the following sum- mer. Before that time Orde must be able to meet them personally or his stock fin the Boom company would be turned in to the firm. This would of course spell nearly total loss of it as far as Orde was concerned.
 The chief anxiety under which the riverman labored. however, was the imminent prospect of losing under the mortgage all the northern peninsula timber. Now. as the time approached, he realized that if he could not pay the notes the firm would certainly be unable to do so. What with the sec ond mortgage due two years later and to be met by Newmark. with the out standing obligations, with the new en- terprise of the. vessels ordered from Duncan Mcleod, Newmark & Orde would be unable to raise anything like the necessary amount He fell upon the woods work with unparalleled fe- rocity. A sale of the 100000 feet remaining of the firms up river hold ings. together with the tolls to be col lected for driving the river that spring would bring Orde through by the skin of his teeth" To cut 100000 feet. even in these latter days oe improve ments, would be task to strain to the utmost every resource of energy and organization
 Nevertheless Orde accomplished the task He lived constantly in the woods. The Rough Red had charge of the banking, where his aggressive, brutal personality kept the rollways free from congestion. When the drive started the cut was banked for miles along the stream, 100000 feet of 1t.
 The strain over, Orde faced the task of driving the river.

Make what arrangements you please. but go. It'n be like a sort of vacation to you. And I'll make 1t worth your while. Take Clara with you. Now, straighten 1t out as quick as you can.
