that he intends casting his lot away from

Mason City, Feb. 23.-Ben Brisben, a
we'll known man Of this city who had
his hand crushed in a well drill few
weeks ago, has met with a stranger
thing than the accident.
Mr.. Brisben's hand was terribly
mangled and after about two weeks it
was found by the attending physicians
that his hand would have to be taken
off. and it was amputated at the wrist
The hand was taken to his home, where
it was buried, and for the first week
after that he seemed to be getting along
a change and he suffered great pain.
He said that his arm and wrist were
cold, and that he could feel water rum
ming over his hand. The pain became
SO intense that the hand was dug up
and taken into the house. That was
the week Of the heavy rain and it was
found that the water had soaked thru
the box, which was very wet on the
inside, and this accounted for the wa
ter running over his hand.
The box was opened and put by the
stove and the pain was quieted very
much. and he suffered very little. How
ever he complained Of their touching
the box. and whenever anyone would
handle. the box it caused him great
pain. the same as tho his hand was still
connected with the arm. A galvanized
iron box was made, the hand was put
In this and was stored away in the at
tic of his home, where it is taken care
OF.
Since this was done Mr.. Brisben's
arm has been getting worse, and blood
poison has supervened in the injured
member and it is feared that his arm
may have to be amputated.
This is a very strange thing. but the
people Of the community know that it
really happened.

Waterloo Feb 23.-With his clothing
afire and with smoke issuing from his
fleeing figure. John Krager a farmer
living nine miles north of Mitchell. pre-
scented an unusual spectacle to the
frightened spectators at the Illinois
Central depot here as he hurried to
catch a departing passenger train
Krager and companion reached the
depot late The train had started for
the branch. Krager's clothing caught
fire from a spark from his, pipe, but he
had no. time: to stop and extinguish
the blaze. His companion hurried and
boarded the rear platform near the
water works station. The signal was
given and the train was stopped.
In the meantime Krager rushed for
the rear platform, where his companion
was motioning to him. Kragers rae
ing against the wind had the effect of
fannig the flames into stronger
blaze. while the odor Of burning cloth
was strong on the air.
The victim Of the unusual accident
wore a fur coat, and the fire was in
the undercoat and vest. AS soon as he
reached the platform anxious friends
stripped off the outer garment and the
flames blazed up, but only for a mo-
ment. for they were soon afterwards
smothered. Fortunately the fire did not
reach Krager's flesh. the only damage
being to the clothing.

The necessity for good roads as one OF
the fundamental requirements towards
