NARROWLY ESCAPES DEATH

Wilbur Smith Falls Into an Electric

tanning Painful Injuries.
While 1900 volts of electricity
We're going through his body and his
flesh being burned by contact with a
live wire from which he could not
release himself Wilbur Smith, a tel
ephone lineman, shouted directions
spectators. He was finally taken
from an electric wire upon which he
had fallen, but not before he had
been seriously injured, and the fact
that he did not lose his life is consid-
cred by many a miracle. The acct
dent occurred early Saturday after
noon.
Mr.. Smith was at work on tele-
phone cable at the corner of Lee and
Stonewall streets when in some way
he lost his balance and fell astride
live electric light wire just below
His foot came into contact with a
nearby post, and the full force of
the powerful current swept through
him, scorching and soaring his limbs
and holding him pOwerless to put
forth exertion to save himself. He
was able to shout for help, however,
and large crowd of people was soon
drawn to the scene. 'Phone to the
plant to shut off the current" Smith
had presence of mind enough to
shout in spite of the torture he was
suffering. Many hurried to obey
him.
One of the first to reach the scene
was Mr. Chas Deubler, who is also
connected with the telephone com
pany, and he climbed a pole and sue
ceeded in fastening a rope about
Smith. The other end of this was
thrown over a metal spike in the
post and was firmly held by num-
Der of hands When the current had
been turned off and the limp body
of the victim was released from the
burning wire he was slowly lowered
to the ground, while scores of people
stood with bated breath.
Mr. Smith was taken to the office
of DR.. Gardner, who, with DR.. Dean,
administered medical treatment, He
received deep burns on his legs and
his whole system naturally sustained
severe shock, from which 1t was
stated it would take him some time
to fully recover.
Mr.. Smith, who is brother Of
Mrs. Chas. Deubler, Jr,, came to
Dawson from Americas some time
ago. He enjoys the high regard of
his employers and is held in esteem
by many friends and acquaintances
here and elsewhere, who congratu-
late him on his narrow escape and
wish for him a speedy recovery from
his injuries.

The elimination of romance be-

Other conversations by long dis

the result that few days ago Mrs.
