A STAGE ACCIDENT

Last Friday afternoon an accident
occurred to the stage plying between
Loomis and Nighthawk that was SER

have been much worse. The stage
pulled out of Loomis for Nighthawk
with eight occupants, including the
driver. The vehicle was crowded to
the limit, one of the passengers, Forest
Judd sitting in the boot. The horses
were inclined to be fractions, but no
real trouble occurred until a point on
Palmer lake WIS reached, when the

upset over a grade. When the spilled
passengers were sorted out it was
found that Forest Judd was severely
cut and bruised, but no bones were
broken. c. A. Saffle, of Spokane. rep-
resenting the Underwood Typewriter
company, was the most painfully in
jured. His right ankle was twisted
and 1t was subsequently ascertained
that a bone in the foot was broken.
The balance of the crowd ESCAPED
with minor bruises. DR.. D. H. Lewis,
of the Springdale hospital, who came
down from Nighthawk on the same
train with the passengers who were
in the accident, did all that could be
done with the means at hand for the
relief of Mr.. Saffle. The injured man

IL inches of snow and in others 70
inches of mud and the whole trip will
be one long snowy, muddy remem-
brance. The only really good roads
were between Golden and Cranbrook.

to Nelson, from there by boat to

Last Thursday night, after the ad
journment of the caucus held in the
town hall few citizens met in the
bowling alley and nominated another
ticket. Those named for councilmen
were j. Friis, Mr. Hare and VIM.
Keller Mr.. Armstrong was endorsed
for treasurer. The gentlemen named
are good, reliable citizens and would
make excellent officials if elected.
Owing to Thursday being Thanks
giving, the Gazette was published
some hours earlier this week in order
to give the force half holiday. This
early publication and an unexpected
demand on the advertising columns
mas curtailed the usual amount of
reading matter. Such shortcoming is
not often chargeable to the Gazette,
and the indulgence of the readers is
asked in this instance.

it was not necessary for him to re-
