Charles Wise narrowly escaped a
serious accident a sohrt time ago, as a
result of the bottom of his trouser leg
being caught by a set-nut and twisted
around a shaft while he was making
an adjustment on the top of his corn
Smelling machine. He wore a heavy
| shoe which prevented his foot being
| drawn under the shaft otherwise there
| might have been broken bones. The
| new overalls he had on offered much
resistance, but they finally gave way
under the terrific strain, and Charley'S
| men say all he then had on was his
| hat, his shirt and a panied and BASH
full expression on his countenance. His
injuries consisted of badly sprained
{ limb, the bone above the ankle also
being quite painfully bruised. He was
| laid up for few days.

Ed Ayers, of Rockford. who was
shot near Gainesville. Sunday. and
who was late in the afternoon
brought to THIS city, is doing nicely
at the City Park hospital. The
wound yesterday looked good and the
attending surgeons believe that he will
| get along without serious results. Lock-
jaw is one of the things to be feared in
a case of this kind and the doctors
think that they can prevent this. The
shot entered the lower part Of the arm
near the pit and tore it's way thru he
muscles and out at the top. How it es-
Jcaped the big artery is a miracle. 1t
cut all the smaller ones and had it
not been for the blood coagulatlng
as it did he would have bled to death
before he could have reached ply
sician.
