painful accident. which may result Sc
riously. Powell Is in the ogden Cen

cars.
Tho report received at the Office OF
the superintendent states that while
at Coalville Powell was repairing the
coupler OF coal car that had been
pulled some distance from another
car. While working with the coupler
the other car began moving slowly
along the track, either released by the
brake not being set tightly or by the
wind the car being on a little grade.
The car jammed Powell between the
two couplers and held him fast. His
cries soon brought other trainmen to
the scene and the unfortunate man
was Immediately released. placed upon
train and brought to the Ogden Cen
eral hospital.
Reports from the hospital this after
while Nt,niully injured, will recover.

occurred yesterday morning.
Both the accidents happened by the
men being caught between the
bumpers or couplors OF cars. Both
cases are remarkable escapes from
death The injuries in both cases are

DOCTORS ARE
N @ 7 ABLE
TO AGREE

When Is smallpox not smallpox. or
when does rash seem TO be something
else? is the pcrplexing question with
Ogden laymcn just now. and II seems
also 10 be mooted question with the
doctors.
u number Of days ago City Physician
Rles was called 10 the residence OF
Frank Towne, at 1896 Twcnty-lourth
street, 10 investigate the illness OF
Miss Helen Towne. who had returned
from the high school With suspicious
looking rash on her fnce. The city
physician diagnosed the case as small
poX. and orderd the place quarantined.
Yesterday the Towne people noticed
that the rash on Hclen's race and
body had practically disappeared. and
they wondered II it were possible that
the young lady was not af1icted with
the much dreaded disease. Dr, Fret
day had previously stated that IT was
not smallpox. but TO make sure, called
Drs. Dickson and Robinson to look AT
the case. A careful inspection was
made and the doctors agreed that the
case was not smallpox. but simple
case Of erythcma. redness OF the
skin.
This caused the Towne family to
feel that the yellow flag should be
taken down. but the city physician
stated that she will not order the quar-
antine lifted. that she saw tne case
before the other doctors did, and that
she knows it is smallpox MISS Ries
said this morning that she thought II
would be quite impossible Tor Dickson
and Robinson 10 make correct dag
nosis OF the case ct this time. or, at
lenst. quite impossible for them to
say definitely that II Is not smallpox.

OF your honorable body dated Feb

KIrcher manager OF the ogden Water
Works system, at salary of $4,000

salary OF $4,000 per ycnr for the ser.

Snlt Lake City's water system is

receives but $1,000 per year. and un.
( ~ a few months ago received only
$500 per year. The manager OF the
Salt Lake water system has recently
made application for $4,000 per year
for the specific reason that Ogden
city pays that much. There may have
been good reasons for paying $4,000
for the first year when the city
bought the waterworks as the trans.
