dren---Son With Him This
Morning

While Blasting holes for fruit trees
on the Hovel farm three fourths of a
mile south of Liberty Adolph Policy
was instantly killed this morning at
ii O'Clock by the premature explosion
of stick of dynamite. Mr.. Polley's
body was blown distance of 20 feet
and half buried in the soft dirt by the
force of the discharge, his hat and
other pieces of his clothing were picked
up 100 feet from the spot where the
explosion occurred. His right hand was
blown off and hole smashed in his
skull One of his shoes was complete.

horribly mangled.
His II year old son was with him
when the accident happened and said
that his father made but a single con-
vulsive movement after the explosion
but showed no signs of consciousness
DR.. 0. B. Miles was rushed to the
scene in his auto but too late, of
course, to be Of any assistance. Mr.
Policy had bored the holes which he
was loading with the powder and was
carrying the dynamite in a carrier such
as logan berry pckers use. He had
fastened the caps upon the ends of the
short fuses and inserted the ends into
the sticks Of dynamite so that the
holes could be loaded and shot at once.
In some unknown manner one Of the
fuses became ignited and the dynamite
was discharged while he was carving
it along in his hand.
Mr.. Policy was about So years old
and owns small acreage tract near
Salem Heights. He has built a neat
modern bungalow and improved his
place from rough tract in the last five
years until he now has one Of the
incest homes in that district. He was
known as sober industrious citizen
and a hard worker and his neighbors
feel that his death will be a real loss
to the community, He has always been
honest to the last cent and had many
friends in Salem where he was well
known.

Action On Ship Bill

Washington, March 2.-Continuous
sessions of both houses oil congress from
today until nom Thursday, when the
present session of congress expires by
limitation, were predicted today after
both the senate and lower house had
continued the legislat We day of Mon
day until long past midnight.
Instead of improving, the legislative
situation is growing steadily worse. A
seemingly impossible number of tasks
awaits disposal during the next 4S
hours. They include action on these

Compromise ship purchase bill-the
house is still considering the conference
report and the senate has not yet taken
it up.
Rural credits compromse-still in
Conference.
Presidents 8 trade commission nomi-
nations-still before the senate, which
is deadlocked over them.
The entire naval building program
which is still in conference,
The rivers and harbors bill--the pass
age of which is very dubious.
Nine appropriation bills, carrying
1890, 100000.

modate themselves and their businesses

tect the public and the business itself
