DIES FROM ACCIDENT.
George Harter, Mangled i'm Mower
Two Weeks Ago, Dies at La
Crosse Hospital.

The sad news came to DEBORAH
last night of the death at six o'clock,
in the hospital at La Crosse, Wis,

weeks ago was badly mangled in a
moving machine, when the team
ran away and he fell in front of the
machine, his leg being crushed and
torn and other injuries sustained.
He was taken to the hospital at La
Crosse, Wis, and 1T was believed
that his limb could be saved, but
suddenly he turned worse, and died
received. He was about twenty
three years of age, and the son of
Mr.. and Mrs. John Harter, who have
for some time been absent on a Wis
it to their old home in Alsace, Ger

went to La Crosse this morning and
will bring the remains here, and If
possible they will be held in the
chapel vault at Phelps cemetery un-
til the arrival of his parents. At
tempts are being made to communi-
cate with them, and it is thought

way home. 1t will be a sad home
coming for them, and they have the
sincere sympathy of their many
friends in this county.

ElectrOlier System Nearly Complete

The work of installing the cleo
trolier lighting system on the main
business streets of DEBORAH is near
ly complete. Tonight the lights will
probably be tested out at various
points along the line, which will give
evidence of how beautiful they are
and how much more efficient the
light will be-. 1t is hoped that in
a day or two the system will be
ready for operation.

What Is the Only Liquid Metal?

Just a word must be said here
about mercury. 1t should always be
thought of together with copper, sill
yer and gold, for with these three
elements it forms a group of four,
which are all related to each other
and somewhat like each other. Mer-
curry is, however, peculiar, because
1t is liquid-the only liquid metal
there is. Small quantities of it, as
OF the others, are found free in Ma
ture. Like the others, it is a very
good conductor of electricity. 1t
is very useful metal, not only be-
cause it conducts electricity so well,
but also because it can be spread on
glass so as to make mirrors. We call
this silvering the mirrors. But mer-
curry, or quicksilver, though it looks
like liquid silver, is not silver at all,
but a perfectly distinct element.
When mercury is heated, it expands
that is to say, it occupies more
space-in very regular way, and
SO it is used in thermometers for
measuring the temperature. In
somewhat the same way. it is used in
barometers for measuring the pres
sure of the air.
Unlike the three other elements of
this group, mercury is also a valua-
BILE medicine. In some kinds of ill
ness-some of them not serious, and
others as grave as illness can. be
mercury is not merely the best medi-
cine, but the only one worth mention
ing / had almost said that it saves
as many lives every year as are des-
troyed by mems hunger for silver and
gold, but m afraid that would be
exaggeration. At any rate, if we
should certainly choose mercury, and
If we were allowed to keep two it
would be mercury and copper

MOTION PICTURES OF DEBORAH.
Superior Film Company of Des
MOines to Take Motion Pictures
of Our Beautiful City.

Mr. c. c. Christie of the Superior
Film Mfg. Co., Of Des Moines, one
of the largest concerns engaged in
the making of motion pictures in the
country, whose operations have ex-
tended over the middle west success
fully, came to DEBORAH yesterday,
and associated with H. A. Wolfgram
OF the Empire Theatre is arranging
TO make series of motion pictures
Of the city of DEBORAH, its streets,
park, public buildings and most
scenic places. These films will first
be shown at the Empire Theatre,
following which they will be placed
on exhibition in neighboring towns
and in various places They will
be valuable as an advertising feature
of the city, especially to show the
people what live town looks like.
Plans are being made for the TAX
ing of these pictures on Saturday of
this week, and everybody who wants
to be in on moving picture ought
to be on the streets of the city that
day, for there is always much of in
terest in the taking of these pic
lures, and everybody likes to be
seen in them. 1t is planned to have
something out of the ordinary in the
way of band music and other fea-
lures to attract and entertain the
people on this day.
