PLEASURE PARTY
HAS A DAY OF
CATASTROPHES
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
Six persons were seriously injured
as the result of an accident occurring
on pleasure trip yesterday.
Early in the morning the family of
Street Commissioner Brady, consisting
of Mrs, Brady, their two daughters
and two sons, in company with Mrs.
Sarah Mclean and son Alex, started
for the Tom Farrell ranch on Texas
creek for days camping and hunt
ing.
All went well until the party reach
ed the Pennington ranch on the Flo
rida, when Alex Mclean, shotgun in
hand, got out of the wagon to speak
with the Andrews boys. He stood
resting the gun on his right foot when
it suddenly discharged, shattering the
middle toe.
Immediately the party started for
Durango with the injured boy. A short
distance down the Florida they met
7. b. Hale and family, who took Alex
in the auto with them and made the
best time possible to reach ply
sician.
The very much excited company
hurried behind. When they reached
the top of the divide between the Flo
rida and Animas the team started
down the first steep pitch at full
speed and just before reaching the
bottom the surrev upset, throwing the
occupants into the deep ditch.
Mrs. McLean's shoulder was dis
located and it is feared she is in
jured internally. Fully an hour elapsed
before little Ebert Brady regained
consciousness. He is badly bruised
about the head and the attending ply
sician, DR.. Robbins, thinks that he, too,
may be injured internally. Miss Lois
Brady has two fingers cut to the bone.
Gleason Brady has his face badly skin
red and his left arm sprained in addi-
tion to painful bruises from head to
foot.
Today the victims of the accident
-are resting as comfortable as possi-
BILE and if no complications develop
there are good prospects for their re-
covery. Mrs. Mclean and little Ebert
Brady, however, are the ones whom
there is most occasion for concern.

ELLA WI;RTIN DIES
AFTER A BRIEF
ILLNESS
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily
Miss Ella Wertin, the only daugh-
ter of Alderman and Mrs. George
Wertin, died at Mercy hospital yes
terday afternoon at $3.50 after brief
illness from appendicitis.
The young lady was stricken with
the dreaded affliction something over
week ago. Thursday she under
went an operation and since that time
has been very low. Although the
loved ones watching beside her hoped
against hope that she would be spared
to them. All that medical aid or low
ing hand could do was done-but in
vain. At 3:15 yesterday the young
life that was the pride and hope of
the fathers household, took its flight.
Last June Miss Ella Wertin grad
uated from the Durango high school.
Among the class of fine young people
not one seemed to have brighter pros
poets than the only child of Mr. and
Mrs. George Wertin.
one WAS porn anu raiseu III lhiS CITY
and her merry warm-hearted nature
made her a favorite with large cir
Gle of acquaintances.
To her fathers home she has al
ways been benediction. Only those
who have had death claim their hearts
fondest treasure can fathom the depth
of the sorrow of that father, mother
and brother, Max Bohlick.
Tomorrow friends will be given an
opportunity to pay their last respects
to her. The funeral will be held at
the German Lutheran church. Six
girls, members of the class of 1911,
will act as flower bearers. The pail
bearers are to be six young men who
were also her classmates.

first called to this remedy several
years ago while l lived in Gladstone.
1t was recommended to me by a
physician and l was led to procure
supply. For a long time there had
been a constant ache across my back
and if l made sudden movement,
sharp twinges darted through me. The
pain could not have been greater if
a knife had been thrust into me- l
also had trouble from the kidney Sc
cretions, the passages being too fire.
