MISSES DEATH BY inch
ELEVATOR MANAGER STRUCK ON
FOREHEAD BY A 25-POUND
PIECE OF IRON.

j. R. Griffin suffered a painful in
jury and narrowly escaped death at
about $3.50 o'clock yesterday after
noon, when in the elevator of the
Union Grain and Seed company, Of
which he is manager, a 25-pound iron
weight dropped, striking him on the
forehead. The weight dropped eight
feet and it is thought that had 1T
struck him squarely on the head, in
stead of having glanced over an eye,
his skull would have been crushed.
Mr.. Griffin was supervising the
loading of a car Of grain. The weight
was attached to a rope on a pulley.
from which three 2%5-pound pieces of
iron We're suspended. Mr.. Griffin
suffered his injury when one of the
strands of rope separated. The blow
was of sufficient force to render Mr..
Griffin temporarily unconscious. He
was driven to a Doctors office where
an abrasion inflicted on his forehead
was dressed. He was able TO be at
his office a part of today.

TALK Street PAVING
PROPOSED PLANS FOR PAVING
EGAN AVENUE DISCUSSED AT
MERCHANTS MEETING.

Evidence that there is strong sen
timent i'm the city favoring the park
ing of Egan avenue in the center,
the whole length of the proposed paw
ing was manifested at last nights
general meeting of the Madison Mer-
chants association. Members of the
association related that they had dis
cussed the various plans for the pay
ing, submitted by City Engineer c..
A. Trimmer, with a number of Egan
avenue property owners, and that
many arguments eXtolling the advan-
tages of parked or handicapped street
centers had been advanced. 1t was
believed by many that the carrying
out of the plan would not only add a
city beautifier, but that it would
mean a common general benefit and
a safety first" measure.
1t was pointed out that with a dis
tinctiye line running the length of
the street, drivers of vehicles would
be compelled to keep to the right.
Cars could be parked in the middle of
the street, giving complete access to
the curbing to such vehicles as are
~discharging or taking on passengers.
The city would be asked to remove
the street lamps from the sidewalk
to the center of the parking. 1t was
argued that by placing the lights in
the middle G" the street. fewer lamps
would be required in a given block,
and that without adding to the NUM-
Der Of lights now i'm use, an addition
al block or two on North Egna avenue
could be lighted, without extra eN-
pense to the city. 1t was pointed out
that with lamps on either side OF the
street, as at present, a large part Of
the light is wasted on buildings and
cannot wholly perform the function
it is intended to do. The cost of re-
moving the street lamps would be
borne by the city. Those %favorinE
the parking. suggested that il be only
a few feet wide, between the Milwau-
kee railway tracks and Seventh street
and that the width from Seventh
street north be increased to twenty
five or thirty feet.

LIGHT LAKE DISTRICT
BUT ROAD TO CHAUTACQUA
GROUNDS MAY NOT BE
WIRED THIS YEAR.

Merchants of the city will not at
tempt, at present, TO electrically light
the road which it is intended to
gravel and otherwise improve be
tween the city and Lake Madison.
1t was the consensus Of opinion at
last nights meeting of the Merchants
association that all of the money that
can be raised at this time is needed
to improve the grade and bed of the
highway, which it is intended to make
a model for this section. ~Inclines are
to be reduced, the road generally
graded and %graveled. 1t was pointed
out as the thoroughfare is one which
accommodates an extremely heavy We
hicular traffic, both by farmers and
persons who travel for recreation and
pleasure, every effort should be made
to make it an ideal one.
w. S. Soule and Nick B%jornstad,
representatives of the Merchants as
ISOLATION on the joint good roads
committee. reported that excellent
success had been met with by those
who had circulated the subscription
list. It Is thought that all donations
will have been pledged before the end
of the week. To obtain county and
township assistance in building the
road, a committee will meet with
county commissioners and Lake View
township trustees.
While no immediate effort will be
made by the association TO light the
road. an endeavor will be made TO
supply electric current at the chau-
tauqua grounds, from the city power
house. Owing to the size of the old
engine. which has been replaced in
the w house. il was not until re-
Gently, it is said. that sufficient en-
ergy could be developed in the Mad
ison power house to supply the lake
district.
Miss M. A. Winters, Red Cross
nurse, made a plea for assistance in
behalf of the committee in charge OF
the Baby day celebration, which will
be held in the gymnasium OF the new
high school March s.. Miss Winters
explained the origin and object OF
National Baby day, and recounted
many Of the benefits which can rea-
sonably be expected to result from
the celebration here. The matter OF
lending financial aid was referred to
the board of directors.
