A Complete Surprise

A complete surprise on E. L. Brown
lee occurred on Thursday afternoon,
Dec, 18th. The members of his Bible
class. numbering eighteen, came in
full force. They all came feeling good,
thinking of the surprise they were to
have on their teacher. Mr.. Brownlee
was down town at the time appointed.
Through the kindness of Irwin Brooks
the ladies were brought to the house
in his automobile. Mr.. Brooks slipped
down town and brought Mr.. Brownlee
to his home where he found his Sum-
day School class awaiting him. In his
surprise, he could not understand what
it all meant. A great hush followed
his appearance, which was ended by
Mrs. Brown presenting to Mr.. Brownlee
q handsome chair accompanied by q
nice talk, in which she praised him for
his faithfulness in performing his duty
to the class as q teacher. Mr.. Brownlee
responded in his usual way, thanking
them not only for the chair, but for the
respect they had shown him through
their kindness and attentiveness in the
class. Mrs. Brownlee was let into the
secret. She planned to surprise the
class with the help of Mrs. Clyde
Brownlee in serving refreshments
before leaving. All went home feeling
that it was good to have been there.
ONE THAT WAS THERE.

Severely Scalded

On Wednesday morning, December
q, about 1890 Ernest Flora, who is
employed by the Union Pacific watch
ing engines in the yards at this place
was badly scalded and badly burned
about the face and body while engaged
in blowing out the ash pan under en-
gine No. 1907. The accident was
caused by the blower pipe bursting
while Mr.. Flora was blowing out the
pan. He was knocked some 20 feet
from the engine. After recovering
his wits he went to the pump house
and obtained a lantern and returned
to the engine and turned of the blower
thus saving the engine from consider
able damage. After doing this he
called doctor and discovered that he
was seriously injured. He is under
medical care and will be for six weeks
to come, but is recovering as nicely as
could be expected. It Is possible he
may lose his left eye from his injuries.
The U. P. should appreciate Mr.. Flora q
heroic efforts in attending the engine
while he was in such a condition.
