Jennie Plum of Upland, Cal, tells the
circumstances of the death of her
father, NJ. w. Plum. He had arisen
early to go with Amos Burkholder
and Miss Katie Haugh in a car to
their home in Tulare county. They
started at a. M, and he sat in the
tonneau with the baggage. He com
planned that his heart hurt but
about 4 o'clock went to sleep as they
supposed. At Gals they tried to
waken him to show him the beauties
of a canyon thru which they we're
passing and found that he had pass
ed away. His two sons who are in
the army. stationed in Georgia. have
gone to the funeral, which will be

WON TURKEY GAME
ABILENE TEAM DEFEATED SA-
LIMA BY SCORE "a TOO.
Game Was Series of Injuries for Sa-
lima Team-Was Well Played
With Starring on Both Sides
-Salina Good Loser.

The powerful Abilene eleven went
cover the top yesterday afternoon at
Salina and when the dust cleared
away, the Salina high school team
found itself defeated by score of
"a to 0. The game was series of
injuries for the Salina team, man
being knocked out about every ten
minutes of the game. During the last
quarter one man on the Salina team
had two bones broken and other in
juries. However, the game was a
well played one turnout Salina did
not win a game this year, but she is
a good loser. The school showed
much pep during the game.
Abilene received the ball the first
quarter and carried it thru the line
for several dwons. Alfred Little
staged one of his famous drop kicks
which gave the Abilene eleven three
points. During the second quarter
the Abilene team made touchdown
after a series of line plunges and
end runs. Otto Romberger kicked |
goal, making the score 10 to 0.
During the first half of the game !
Leslie Kreps and Salina player
came to blows and both men were put
out of the game. The incident was
not due to rough playing. The Sa-
limo mon hoooD,a furiouc ubon Kronc
tackled him around the neck.
If the distance covered by the num-
Der of penalties the home team re-
ceived during the third quarter had
been given the Salina team on one
play, the Salina team would have
made a touchdown. But the home
boys came back with their forward
pass which always battles the oppo-
nents and soon made up for lost
ground. Ralph Steel made an end
run for fifteen yards and when he
was tackled he fell on his head. An
other touchdown and goal kick gave
the Abilene team seventeen points.
The Abilene team made another
touchdown and goal kick during the
last quarter making the final score
"a to 0.
The Abilene men who played dur
ing the game were: Carl Sampson,
Leslie Kreps, D. Whitehead L. Wag-
oner, J. Rauch, L. Rose, E. Stephens,
o. Romberger L. CARVE, A. Little, r.

PIECE OF CABLE FROM RUNA-

The runaway balloon from Nebras-
ka which went to Wichita and finally
returned to Nebraska where it was
brought down, caused much damage
to the local power company's mains
and the wires of the United Tele-
phone company On its trip to
Wichita, the cable tore down the To-
cal power company's main at Lin
colnville. The electricity burned a
piece OF the cable on and it can now
be seen at the Union Electric COM
panys window. The cable is small,
but it is capable of carrying much
weight. The piece on display is
steel and tangled and twisted a great

neer at the power plant noticed that

80 OF EVERY 100 RECOVER.
Surgery Making Records at Euro
pean War Fronts.

Altho surgery and medical sci
ence have scored their greatest tri-
umphs in the treatment of the
wounded in the present war, the con-
ditions which have had to be met
are the worst in all the history of
warfare, according to one of the Abb
lene boys who attended the second
training camp.
If it had not been for the discov-
cry of bacteria and the method of
fighting them by antitoxins, the vast
majority of the wounded in the pres
ent war would have died horrible
deaths. Instead, over 90 per cent
have recovered and over 40 per cent
return to the fighting lines.
There have also been wonderful
improvements in the mechanical in
struments of surgery. The improv-
ed splints for broken limbs are won
ders of simplicity. With these
splints wounded men can be trans
ported in auto, train and hospital
ship without pain or injury, where
formerly the moving of the wounded
was a hell of agony.
In treatment of wounded the in
vention of the Carrel-Dakin system
of irrigating and cleaning deep
wounds has attracted wide attention
and has saved many lives. 1t is a
cumbersome process, however, and
requires the redressing of the wounds
every two hours. The surgeons are
actively seeking simpler methods.
The next great step to be taken in
the armies will be the vaccination
of all the troops with anti-gangrene
serum-which will prevent gangrene
from ever setting in. The vaccina-
ton for typhoid and smallpox, and
the careful sanitation of camp sites,
food and water have already cut
down the deaths from sickness to
below normal peace time rate
whereas in the Civil war the deaths
by disease vastly exceeded the deaths
in battle or in the wounded hospi-
tails.
While trench warfare has evolved
new and difficult kinds of wounds,
it has had its great compensation Cor
the wounded and for the surgeons.
Statutory warfare enables the
wounded to be picked up as soon as
hurt, and to be placed in expert
hands and in fully equipped hospi-
tails from the moment Of injury. The
hospitals, and the ambulances are

learned that a main was down and
shorted, a car was sent from here
to Lincolnville. The men had the
line repaired and back here by 5
O'Clock with the souvenir. He said
number of persons asked for a
small piece of the cable. R. B..
Gemmill said this morning that each
piece of cable is capable of carrying
nearly six tons.
When the balloon turned and took
a northwesterly course. the United
Telephone company's mains were
torn down at Oakley and St. Fran
els. Workmen will be rushed to the
places of destruction and the wires
will soon all be repaired
