SIGHT
Of James MOran's Eye
Probably Destroyed
Distressing Accident At The
Pennsylvania Shops
SIGHT

James Moran, East Gambler street.
Will In all probability lose the sight of
his left eye, as the result of an acci-
dent sustained Wednesday evening
while at work in the Pennsylvania
shops. With chisel and hammer,
Moran was chipping casting, when
a piece of the steel flew into his eye.
The local Pennsylvania physician, DR..
N. X. Eastman, was summoned and
the man rushed to Mt. Carmel hospit-
al over the b. & o., where an exami-
nation was made. The steel could
not be located and hemorrhage oc-
Cured, the fluid of the eye escaping.
The accident occurred at 5: go o'clock
and despite the intense pain. Moran
bore up bravely during his trip to
Columbus. There has been recently
installed in Mt. Carmel hospital a
powerful magnet, which is capable of
attracting and drawing forth any for.
eign matter that is not too deeply
imbedded. This magnet was used on
Moran's eye, but without effect at all
AS near as could be determined, the
steel had completely penetrated the
pupil and was lodged in the orbit. II
this is the case, it will be necessary
to remove the eyeball. In any event
IL is practically an impossibility that
Moran will ever have the use of his
eye again. An X-ray examination
will be made soon to determine what
shall be done.
Moran is an Industrious worker
holding a position with the tank gang
He is generally we'll liked and all OF
his friends were shocked to hear Of
his injury. He is married and has
three children.

AuSuiu.o Zero.

In the absence of all heat the tenn
perature is zero. not the zero Of the
thermometers, but what is called "ab-
solute zero In other words, where
there is no heat there is no tempera-
ture. Absolute zero is supposed to be
about 274 degrees below the thermo-
metric zero of the Centigrade scale
and about 481 degrees below the ther-
mometric zero of the Fahrenheit scale.
Absolute zero might imaginatively. be
defined as molecular death, because a
substance which has lost all tempera-
ture has necessarily lost all molecular,
or internal, energy and has become
entirely inert.-New York Journal.

MONEY
And Food For The Relief Of
The Belgians
Coming In Rapidly To The
Knox Co. Committee

1t Is estimated that at least $3.50
has already been raised by the Knox
County Belgian Relief committee and
many of the house to house canvass
ers have not yet reported. OF this
sum, $92 was raised by the Mt. Yer.
non Belgians and it Is thought that
the rest of the city and county will
more than keep pace with the splen-
did record.
In addition to cash contributions,
donations of food are coming into
headquarters on South Main street
from all over the city and county. The
committee is not yet able to give a
list of these generous responses, but
that will be done in a few days. One
bright lad, who lives on East High
street, made canvass of his friends
and purchased condensed milk, which
he brought to headquarters.
1t is believed that if all children
were told by their parents of the ter
rible want that faces the little boys
and girls in Belgium, and were urged
to give a sum, however small, to the
fund, they will be glad in later years
of having had their part in probably
the greatest philanthropic movement
the world has ever known.
That Knox county is receiving state
xuil frv off ;c sI<v, a
from the following extract which has
been given to the press by the Ohio
commission:
Knox county has fallen in line
| with the rest of Ohio in organizing
under the banner of the Ohio Commits
sion for the Relief Of European War
Sufferers, and has given it's pledge
to produce literally of it's substance
for aid of the sufferers in Europe.
"The Knox county organization
| completed at Mt. Vernon has the
unique distinction, so far as Ohio
counties go, of being the only one at
which both the chairman and the
chairman of the Woman's Auxiliary
are Belgians. The chairman has in
operation system of collecting fifty
cents week from the Belgians in
Knox county and this has already
produced large sum of money. One
4, carload of -four has already beer
shipped from Mt. Vernon"
