JOHN R, WOODARD
STILL HELPLESS
Physicians Apprehensiye
Over His Condition
Last Thursday.

Although the condition of John r.
Woodard, assistant city attorney, be-
came so serious last Thursday that his
became apprchensive, there
was marked Improvement yesterday,
and now there seemingly is no doubt
of his ultimate recovery. Mr.. Wood
ard was assaulted by g. A. SandersOn
in the SandersOn suite Of offices, Iowa
building, some time ago, since when
he has. been confined to his bed
Mr., Woodard's injuries, caused by
being throttlcd over the back Of a
chair by SandersOn, promised TO de-
velOp paralysis from the beginning.
However, 1t was not until several days
following the assault that paralysis ap-
pcared, Since that time the patient
suffered total paralysis of the right
side, although this condition has un-
dcrgone Improvement during the past
few years Yesterday he was able to
move his fingers.
Doctors Wagner and OvertOn, who
have been in attendance upon Mr..
WOOdard since the day he was injured
marvel at the smaller mans escape
without a broken neck Pressure
brought to bear on the spinal column
must have been terrific. as muscles
were torn and bones Injured.
II probably Will be several weeks
before Mr.. WOOdard is able to leave
his bed and additional time will be
necessary before ne can resume his
duties as assistant city attorney.

LIGHT AND POWER
COMPANY SWAMPED
sand Springs Plant viii Have to
Triple Capacity Before Starting
Business.

In the work Of tripling its ca
pacity. the sand Springs Power, Light
x Water CO. has erected its boiler
houses and swung its big smokestack
into place. Demands on the COM
pany through the increased traffic on
the Sand Springs line, the additional
lighting because of the building cam
paign which Sand Springs has under
gone for the past year and the in
crease in power demanded for
waterworks extensions have almost
swamped the company for the time
being.
The light company is now making
extensions and installing new ma
Chinery that will cost about 100000,
and which will take care Of the needs
Of the town for some time unless its
growth continues at the pace it is
now setting.
Sewer work is also engaging its
share Of attention at Sand Springs,
where a new main has just been COM
plcted and where more than a mile
of sanitary sewer is being laid. Light
and telephone wires are beng run
into the new additions where the
length of the streets are torn through
the laying of gas and water service
lines
Already there is enough municipal
improvement work mapped out to
continue throughout the winter
months. and it is likely that several
other residence additions will be
added to the original townsite.
