CHILD SERIOUSLY HURT
by EXPLOSION At RUTH.

A Greek child five years of age was
perhaps fatally injured last Wednes-
day afternoon by the explosion of full
inmate cap. 1t is feared that the
sight of both eyes may be lost as a
result of the accident. 1t was neces-
sary to amputate the thumb and first
finger of the left hand.
DR.. d. w. Bedinger, resident ply
sioian for the Nevada Consolidated,
was summoned, and did all that was
within his power to relieve the suf-
fering of the child. The injured one
was taken to the Steptoe hospital in
an automobile. The parents went to
Salt Lake Thursday morning to con
suit an eye specialist. The manner
in which the child procured the cap
has not been learned.

PRICE OF BREAD NOT REDUCED.

The News published an item last
week TO the effect that the price of
bread bad been reduced and that
the local bakeries would hereafter
sell four loaves for use instead of
three. This paragraph was publish
ed in good faith and the reporter who
wrote il had been so informed by one
who was in a position 10 know. How
ever il has since been learned that
the local bakeries have made no
change in the price of bread and this
paper corrects the error
With all the care and diligence
possible errors will occasionally be
made and all newspapers have at
some time had sucn accidents fall
to their lot. The News has always
followed the principle of verifying all
rumors and believes ii is as free from
such mistakes as the majority OF
papers. Although in this case the
information came from a seemingly
reliable source the reporter should
not have written the article on the
statement of an employe without
having first interviewed the managers
of the various bakeries
Because of the errors which creep
into newspapers many of the larger
journals of the east have adopted a
system of fines on reporters who
make errors and have taken various
precautions to guard against these
accidents and yet they can not eradi'
cate them, and it is not surprising
therefore. that the local papers oc'
casionally err.
And now let it be emphatically un'
derstood, once and for all, that the
price of bread has NOT been reduced
in Ely--last Sundays News to the
contrary Notwithstanding.
