Special to IlmeS-

rious accident during the past Few
months occurred at Dumont a few days
ago when a man known as Toughy''
Nichols sustained an injury that was
declared by medical experts would
prove fatal, altho he has not yet sue
cumbed to the injury.
The man had mounted a stack OF nay
for the purpose of driving a stout iron
bar into it with the intention of hav-
ing the frozen top Of the stack pulled
off with team. The team started up
before he had gained safe place and
he was thrown to the frozen ground,
striking on his head or shoulders. The
mans spine was seriously injured and
physicians who examined him declared
that the injuries were fatal. He COM
pletely lost the use of his limbs for
several days, but lately it is declared
that he is regaining slight use Of his
arms and legs. The fact that he has
survived the injury thus far Is con-
sidered little short of miraculous, con-
sidering the manner in which he was

there has been a difference between
