LOST RIVER EXPLOSION

Further details of the dynamite ac-
cident on Little Lost River have been
obtained since our last issue. The
story of that frightful accident and
the efforts to save the mans life
are given briefly below.
Harry Clebb and his sister of Cor
dulac, N, D., were visiting relatives
near Howe and had been for about a
month. He was a large finely built
fellow about thirty years old and
very fond of sport. II he drove an
automobile he had all the fun that
anybody could have with it, and was
rather daring in climbing hills and
mountain roads with his machine.
He planned to leave for home on
Thursday, and on Tuesday he prop
osed to his brother-in- Mr.. VIM.
Balding, that they take "the girls"
out for a spin to FalIert's ranch and
then go fishing which they did: They
went to the dam in Little Lost River
below Fallerts and we understand it
to be where the water is diverted
for the reservoir. They left the car
and went across the river on a plank
a foot wide. Each was engaged in
making preparations for fishing at
about noon, and were only few feet
apart. 1t appears that Clebb was
doing something with dynamite and
fuse when an explosion occurred that
prostrated both men, stunning them
temporarily.
Clebb was the first to speak and he
said care you hurt?"
Balding replied, mo" don't
think / am"
Clebb. well I am. Come to ME.
Just look at me-"
He was standing up holding out
the stubbs of two arms that hung
in strings and tatters from the elbow
down. One eye was gone and his
face showed wounds. Much of his
clothing was blown away and some of
the flesh was gone from his left
thigh. He was not breeding much,

MRS. II. r.. JONES RETURNS

Mrs. T. r. Jones who has been in
Minnesota and Wisconsin for several
weeks started home last Sunday and
came into Omaha Monday morning
just after the cyclone had wrecked
so much of the city. Passengers
knew nothing of what had happened
until they observed it from the car
windows.
Mrs. Jones spent a couple of hours
viewing the ruins of Omaha and
says she saw buildings in all con-
ceivable positions that unlimited
power Of storm could place them:
some with sides blown in, some with
roofs, off, some with doors and win
dows out and everything pumped out
of them, some thrown up in the air
and dropped to earth so they struck
on the peak of the roof, some crush
ed TIE cgy shells and their helpless
occupants in the ruins.
