Webster City. Nov. Ill. r. Weber,
who was terribly scalded in an explo-
sion OF a water heater at the new
municipal electric light and water plant
in this city. just filed suit in the dis
trict court asking judgment for $780,

accident happened eighteen months ago
and Weber has been a continuous pa
tient in the hospital ever since. His
petition alleges that it will be at least
six months more before he can be
discharged.

one of the engineers at the plant. He
was about his duties as usual on May

his lower limbs were unusually deep
and refused to heal. Fellow employees,
who sympathized deeply with him. sub

their bodies in order that 1t might be
grated over Weber's burns. Even
this however, was to no purpose ana
the man has suffered much. The city,
of course. has been paying his bills for
hospital and medical and surgical as
