A SERIOUS ACCIDENT
William Schill Injured at the
Brown IL Croft Mine.

On last Thursday morning William
Schill Of this city met with severe
accident in the mill Of the Brown q
Croft mine, near Shullsburg. The
pump was in operation. and while Mr..
Schill was adjusting it his left hand
was caught in the gearing Of the pump
Jack, and the four fingers were crushed
in such II manner AS to neceSslt ate
their amputation. The injury is doubly
hard to bear owing to the fact that
Mr. Schill only short time ago had
one Of the fingers Of his right hand
scratched by a rusty nail, from which,
for time blood poisoning was feared.
On being notified Of the accident of
last Thursday morning Mrs. Schill i'm
mediateIy drove over to Shullsburg to
attend him. He is now at his home,
an6 although the wounded hand causes
him much pain he is doing as well as
can be expected. He is an industrious
man and many friends sympathize with
him in his misfortune.

CARING FOR TUBERCULOSIS
Thirty-Nine State and IA Local sana- toria Provided, but These Are
 Only a Beginning.

In spite of the fact that state sana- torfa and hospitals for tuberculosis
 have been established in 31 states, and IA municipal or county hospitals in 26 states. vastly more public provision is needed to stamp out consumption. says the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis. Nearly every state east of the Mlssis- sippi river has provided a state saua- torium. and west of the Mississippi river. state sanatoria have been es- tablished in Minnesota. Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas. Texas. Kansas. Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota. Montana and Oregon. There are 3S sanatoria provided by these states. Massachu- setts having four. Connecticut and Pennsylvania three and Texas two. h. cluding special pavilions and aims houses. there are IA municipal or county hospitals for the care of tube-- culosis patients.
 Apart from these institutions, how ever, and few special pavilions at prisons. hospitals for the insane, and some other public institutions, a grand total of hardly 200, the institutional care of the consumptive Ia left to pri- vate philanthropy.
