to Manhattan's shores. They are built
exactly on the thermos bottle plan
Two layers of hair felt are surrounded
by specially prepared siding. and the
outer shell is of three thicknesses Of
white pine.
y steady temperature of forty de-
grees Fahrenheit is maintained day and
night the year round. This is eight
degrees above freezing. the standard
temperature of refrigerating cars.
The men who live on these barges
are there to keep an eagle eye on the
thermometer. The transportation line
in question has found the thermos
barSes so successful that three more
have been ordered.

found that the man had no water
melon concealed about his person, but
in his pocket was about $40. After
his arrest Lucero gave bond for his
appearance in justice court this morn

spects, to that of man named Kelly,

JOHN HARRIS is
VICTIM OF GUN
ACCIDENT
YOUNG BANKERS ARM is BADLY
INJURED IN ACCIDENT LAST
EVENING

John W. Harris, Jr., of the Peoples
Bank and Trust company, son of John
w. Harris, president of the institution,
who left early yesterday morning with
Assistant Postmaster Orrin Blood for
Kroenig's Lakes on duck hunting
trip not intending to return until Lnis
evening, was the victim of a distress
ing accident at about $50 o'clock last
night when a 12-gauge shot gun load
ed with No. A shot went off mex
plicably and tore the flesh from his
right arm between the wrist and the
elbow, leaving the whole upper side
of the member in shreds
Just what caused the gun to be dis
charged is not known, and probably
never will be- The men, who had not
had the luck they thought they should
have had, had decided to come back to
town for a nights rest, and also to
got their decoys, intending to return
to the lakes early this morning. When
they got to the gates Of the Deep
Lake Country club property, Mr.. Blood
who was driving, leaned over the
door on his side of the automobile
before getting out to open the gate.
It was then that, the gun went off,
the charge of shot burying itself in
Mr.. Harris arm. If Mr.. Blood had
been sitting erect in the machine he,
too, likely would have received a part
of it in his left shoulder Harris,
with remarkable fortitude, called to
Blood that he was shot, and the latter
lost no time in tying the injured
member with handkerchiefs, taking
| torniquet above the elbow. Then
the race for the city began. Stopping
at Onava to send word by phone to
DR.. R. K. McClanahan to meet them
en- route, Blood, after making such
provision for the comfort of the in
jured man as he could, opened the
throttle tosits fullest limit.
The distance from the lakes to- the
Las Vegas hospital was covered in
/ just 25 minutes. Mr.. Harris, who suf-
fered intensely, held his nerve with
Spartan grit. At the hospital, DR..
McClanahan, who had met them some
distance out on the road, attended the
injury. It is not thought that the arm
will have to be amputated, although the
patient will be long time in recover
ing its full use.
Mr.. Harris spent as comfortable a
night as could be expected, and is re-
ported today as resting easily.
