.INDIANIANS TO HONOR
AUTHORS At Meeting
Politicians Also to Be Invited to Gath
ering Here on December IL.

lndiana's glory as an Inspiration for
novelists and statesmen will be sung on
December II at the New Ebbitt, when
natives OF the Hoosier State will gather
as guests Of the Indiana State Society.
The association held its regular
monthly meeting last night and agreed
that everybody OF a literary turn OF
mind who passes through Indiana writes
a novel; therefore it was resolved that
Booth Harrington be elected to bring all
the authors and near authors OF Indiana
together for the December meeting.
No matter how the election goes in
November, Indiana will have the honor
Of greeting a Vice President, so 1t was
voted that Vice President Marshall and

COPPER And zinc
STOCKS SHOW GAIN
Anaconda Pushes Up Through SO. Ad-
vancins More Than 2l-2 Points.

Special to The Washington Herald.
New York, Oct. 10.-All OF the copper
stocks and the zinc shares felt new
thrill Of life. Anaconda Copper pushed
up through 93 gaining over 2h points.
The other copper shares made gains of l
to points American Zinc added 319
points to the Monday closing. Utah Cop
per did the same. The steel issues were
likewise firm. in somewhat less proper
tions, however
Apropos Of the strength in the coppers,
attention is called to the effect on the
copper metal Sarket by the German sub
marine raiders attacks near our coast.
The insurance companies which insure
copper metal cargoes are under obliga-
tions to replace any copper lost in ship
ment. On the Stephano, sunk OF Nan
tucket by the U-5S, there were 800 tons
OF the red metal. On the italian ship
MilazzO, burned entering a home port,
there were s45 tons, making a total Of
2,S45 tons OF the metal to be replaced at
once. The fact that the metal must be
replaced makes the situation interesting,
since the market in nearby deliveries Is
practically exhausted. II Is. stated that
at the end Of last week there were only
500 tons OF November metal to be had
here. It is estimated that the insurers
will have to pay 2S or % cents a pound II
they can get 1t at all.
One factor in sustaining Tennessee Cop
per Yesterday, when the rest of the mar
ket was tumbling all around It, was the
fact that the company's new financing
plan Is rapidly being rounded into shape
The plan as at present understood is 20

Horrible Death
in Engine Gear

Williston, Sept. 24.-John Kelley
engineer with the Anthony Bloom
threshing crew. lost his life by one OF
the most horrible accidents ever
known in this section.
The machine was working between
McGregor and Tioga and was moving
to new job. While his engine was
moving along the road Kelley climb
ed out on it to adjust some part of
the machinery. Losing his footing
he slipped so that the toes Of his right
foot were caught between the heavy
cog wheels of the traction gear.
Powerless to stop his engine or ex
tricate himself, the engineer was
drawn into the machinery until the
whole leg was crushed and the mus
cles torn away from his side and hip
After the engine was stopped, the com
bined effort of nine men was required
to pry the wheels apart and release
the victim after he had suffered tor.
lures for half an hour.
Kelley was rushed to Tioga and
received the attention of Dr.. Stobie
of that place, and DR.. Hagan, of Viii
liston. The surgeons were able to dc
but little more than staunch the flow
of blood and administer opiates. DR.
Hagan states that in all his surgical
experience he has never seen more
horrible case of mangling or more
eXcruciating suffering. Great mus
cles as large as mans arm were lit
orally torn from the body and some
of the organs of the abdomen were ex
posed. The suffering of the victim
was 50 intense that he begged for a
revolver to end his life. He remain
ed conscious most of the time.
Kelley was a single man who had g
homestead at Wolf Point. Mont. He
is survived bv a sister who lives ir
Minnesota, where the body was sent
for burial.

Girls Scalp Is
Torn Off Head

Minot, Sept. 21.-Myrtle Natwick, a
15-year-old girl who was employed in
the farm home of Godmand Knutsvig,
IS miles north and four miles east Of
Granville, had her scalp completely
torn from her head when her hair
caught in the gearing Of windmill on
the farm yesterday morning, when she
threw the mill into gear to get water
for her early morning work in the
house.
She had luxuriant head of hair
and it was loose about her shoulders
at the time. A terrific wind was blow
ing at the time, and after she had
thrown the machinery into gear the
wind blew her hair into the connecting
gearing and she was gradually being
wound into the cogs. To save her
life, she threw her hands against the
shafting and the power of the ma
chinery tore her scalp together with
her hair from the skull. In front the
scalp was torn down to the edge of
the hair and the rest of the skull was
left bare except for a small margin
about the edges.
No one heard her scream because
the wind was blowing such gale that
her voice did not carry. After the
scalp was torn from her head, she
managed to get to the house, a dis
lance of couple of hundred feet, and
then tainted. Medical aid was sent
for and trained nurse procured and
at this time she is resting as easy as
it is possible under the circumstances.
Unless some complications set in it is
expected that she will recover, though
she will be SCARED for life.

Sanborn Market Day Oct. II

After fairly Thorough dis ussion
Of conditions, it was found that the
sentiment was very decidedly fav.
cradle to the event, and the proposal
to hold Market Day" on Saturday,
Oct. IA, was unanimously carried.
Committees were appointed to have
responsibility for the various depart

Committee on Entertainment -
Messrs LANCER, Houghtaling and

Advertising Committee-Rev. Frank

After some discussion as to the type
of speaker of the day, the secretary
was instructed to write Immediately to
Lynn j. Frazier, republican nominee
for governor, and request him to de-
liver the speech of the day. 1t is very
urgently hoped that Mr.. Frazier will
be able to grant this request, and we
can assure him rousing welcome and
profitable hearing.
There is every prospect of this
years Market Day. being the biggest
and best occasion of it's kind that San

have known others, little more need
be said. We shall all be glad of this
occasion to renew asquaintances when
fall work is taken care of. The prem

will offer much inducement to farm
ers to bring in their products for
show.
