When SCaffoId Gave Away
Near Sunbury
One Of The Victims May Die
From Injuries
Injured Men Are Removed To
Columbus
Cause Of The Accident To
Be Investigated

Sunbury, o.. August 30-The col
lapse of scaffolding at the new
bridge of the G. A. e. G. railway over
Big Walnut, about one-fourth of a mile
east of Sunbury on Tuesday morning
about 10:30 o'clock resulted in drop
of go feet for one man, a drop of 40
feet for two others and the serious
injury of three of the victims of the ac-
cident, one of whom may be fatally
injured.
The work of installing the new
bridge was completed several days
ago. A heavy scaffolding was con-
structed so that the old bridge might
Sc swung out of position and the new
bridge installed without interference
with traffic on the railway This work
had been done successfully and the
men injured Tuesday were engaged in
removing the scaffolding when it sud-
denly save way at some point and the
men were carried down into the creek
amidst splintering, cracking mass
of heavy timbers. That none of them
were killed outright seems almost
miraculous. There is about three feet
of water at this place and this broke
the fall of the men and saved them
from more serious injury.
Holtz was most seriously injured.
He was at work at the very top of
the scaffold and fell distance of
sixty feet. He was caught with his
head under water by the falling tim
bers. When rescuers reached the
scene all that could be seen of him
was one leg and an arm protruding
from among the timbers. The wreck
age was quickly lacked up by other
men of the bridge force and while
Holtz's head was held above water,
saws were brought into use and he
was soon freed from his perilous po-
sition.
An examination revealed that his
skull had been crushed, and after tenn
porary relief mad been administered,
he was rushed to Mt. Carmel hospital
at Columbus on the 1880 train. He
will be operated upon.
Swan and Forsche were lower down
on the structure and fell a distance
of about forty feet They were both
struck during their fall by timbersi
and were badly injured. These men
were removed to their rooming place
at the Etling restaurant at Sunbury
and are under the care of Sunbury
physicians. Unless internal injuries
develop in their cases, it is not be
lieved their injuries will result serious
ly.
The men would have completed
their work of wrecking the scaffoldine
in five minutes more.

There is more Catarrh in this section Of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable For great
many years doctors pronounced it local
disease and prescribed local remedies. and
by constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable. Sci
ence has proven Catarrh to be consti-
tutional disease. and therefore requires
constitutional treatment Halls Catarrh

TRAGEDY
At Utica Which May Develop
Into A Murder
George Davis Found With
Bullet Hole In Head
Assaulted And Robbed At
The Very Same Spot
Over Six Weeks Ago And
Just Recovering

The Deceased Has Son LiV-
ing In Mt. Vernon

Utica, Aug. 30.-A tragedy which
may develop into foul murder was
revealed Tuesday. morning when JUS
tice of the Peace Joe Tool of this vii
lage discovered the dead body of Geo.
w. Davis, age SO years, lying across
his bed in his hermit home in this viii
lage. The discovery resulted from an
investigation prompted by the story
of neighbor Mrs. Martin, who heard
two shots in the Davis home Monday
afternoon and Monday night.
Davis, who has lived alone for some
time, and rather secluded from his
neighbors, was the victim of vicious
assault about six weeks ago and it IS
on this theory the county officials will
pursue an investigation to establish, If
possible whether he took his own life
or was the victim of cowardly mur-
der.
About A o'clock Monday afternoon,
neighbor, Mrs. Martin, heard shot
which seemed to come from the Davis
home. She paid little attention to the
matter and later in the night she
heard the second shot.
Tuesday morning, not seeing Mr..
Davis about the place as usual, she
decided to tell the village officials of
what she heard. Justice of the Peace
Joe Tool was notified and he forced
an ntrance into the mans dwelling.
He found Davis corpse stretched
full length on the bed in big pool OF
blood Brains and blood were oozing
from a bullet wound in the left ear.
The body was lying with the right
arm beneath and the revolver was
found about 1S inches from the right
hand.
An investigation revealed the fact
that the bullet entered the ear and
pierced the cranial cavity. Death
must have been instantaneous.
The fact was apparent that Davis
had held the gun in his right hand,
and that the wound was in the left ear
led Coroner Wiyiarch to make fur
ther investigation. How the man fired
the fatal shot into his left ear with
the gun in his right hand is what the
coroner will seek to discover.
But one shot was discharged in the
chamber of the revolver while Mrs
Martin states that she heard two
shots. The authorities will also seek
to discover who fred the two shots
Coroner Wiyiarch was notified short
ly after the body was discovered and
went at once to Utica to make an in
vestigation. He believes that he is
warranted in making an extended in
vestigation. He learned that Davis
possessed gun some time ago, but
his son succeeded in persuading him
to give 1t up, the son fearing that he
might do some harm to himself witt
it.
According to DR.. Wiyiarchs state
ment from information secured al
the scene of the tragedy, Davis has ;
son who is blacksmith in Newarl
and another son in Mt. Vernon. His
wife has been dead for more than ;
year.
DR.. Wiyiarch will conduct post

Honest Medicines Versus Fakes.

President Taft's recent message sug-
gesting an amendment to the Pure
Food and Drugs law in its relation to
Prepared Medicines, does not refer to
such standard medicines as Foley's
Honey and Tar Compound and Foley
Kidney Pills, both of which are true
medicines carefully compounded of in
gradients whose medicinal qualities
are recognized by the medical profess
sion as the best known remedial agents
for the diseases they are intended to
counteract. For over three decades
Foley's Honey and Tar Compound has
been standard remedy for coughs,
colds and effections of the throat,
chest and lungs for children and for
grown persons, and it retains today
its pre-eminence above all otherprep-
arations of its kind. Foley's Kidney
Pills are equally effective and merit
