G. w. Hoadley Has Hand Badly
Mangled in Planning Machine.

Last Friday afternoon, at about
$3.50 o'clock, G. w. Hoadley, our
father, had the misfortune to get his
left hand badly mangled in the
planning machine in his wagon shop,
he losing the thumb and all the
fingers, except the second finger
which was not even scratched. The
machine sets in the shop with the
table east and west the saw run
ming north and south, turning to the
west, the speed being very great. He
was planning an inch elm board about
six inches wide and four feet long
and stepped to the end of the ma
chine and put his hand on the end
of the board which was lying on the
west end and started to draw it to-
wards himself feeding it across the
planning knives. The end of the
board happened to be a little cross
grained with knot in it and as
quick as the knives struck it they
Knocked it out of his hand letting
his hand drop into the machine, he
bearing on the board to hold it to
the table, his second finger being
longer that the rest caught on the
table and was held out but all the
rest including the thumb were taken
on at the palm of the hand.
1t was all done in less that Sec
Ond and he had no time to save him.
self. He was in the shop alone but
shut of the machine, leaving the en-
CINE running and went to Dr.Coontz's
ONCE alone where he was given an
anesthetic and DR.. Coontz dressed
the hand, being assisted by DR.. Lyon
and Miss Zichy, the nurse. He is
doing very we'll and is able to be
about. 1t is severe blow to a man
In his business. OF course it might |
have been much worse had the one
finger not held the whole hand out
OF the knives and that finger will
be of great deal of use to him.
Everybody has been very kind in
offering help for which the family |
feel grateful.-Garden Grove Ex-

Does the world miss anyone? This
is question that is often asked and
the answer is easy-not long. The
most useful parsonage in the whole
world dies and is soon forgotten.
Those who are filling important posi-
tons today will pass away from the
remembrance of a man in a short
time and the grave will close upon
their remains. Shedding tears over
a new made grave, saying that our
loss is irreparable, is but temper
airy grief for nature has so made us
that soon the tendrils of love have
entwined around other supports and
we are forgotten, we are no longer
missed and the world goes on and
on.

IMPORTANT STRIKE
IN THE NEWHOUSE,

Thursday of last week, the New.
house tunnel made the most import
ant strike encountered since the big
bore was started. The Prize lode, or
what is supposed to be the Prize on
Gunnell hill was cut. The manage
ment of the tunnel is somewhat un-
decided as whether the vein cut Is
the north branch of the Ashtabula or
the Suterberg, or the Prize However,
where the strike was made there Is
six feet of crevice matter and an as
say of the smelling streak, which is
from IA to 16 inches wide, gave 6.04
ounces gold, 1880 ounces silver and
per cent copper, making the ore
worth $4,000 to the ton. Another as
say taken went 1.56 ounces gold, 4.5O
ounces silver and 2.05 per cent cop.
per, making the total value worth
close to s35.0O to the ton. There is
from two to three feet of milling dirt
with the smelling streak and this
averages $500 to the ton in gold
The Prize is owned by the Prize
Mining company and it is learned
from a reliable source that work is
to be started. Within a short time
work on lateral from the tunnel to
the Hubert is to be started. The tun-
mel is being pushed right ahead and
it will be but a couple of months un-
til The Gunnell vein is cut.

This property has been idle four or

ner,a mining engineer connected with
the Benzie company, will have charge
of operations both at the Victor and
