WILLIAM FERGUSON RUN
OVER BY AUTO SUNDAY

William Ferguson, the ten year
old son of Mr.. and Mrs Nose Fergu-
son of this city, was quite seriously
injured last Sunday afternoon at the
fair grounds. when car being driven
by Mrs. F. J. Pool Of Dalton, Nebr.,
ran over him while riding a bicycle on
the race track. Young Ferguson was
riding in front of the auto. and. when
the car overlook him, in an effort to
get out of the way, the handlebars of
the bicycle came off, the bicycle and
the unfortunate boy falling directly
in front of the auto. The car struck
young Ferguson and passed over his
body, sustaining broken collar bone
and otherwise badly bruising him.
DR.. Dutton was summoned and attend
ed the injured lad, and at last reports
he is getting along as well as could be
expected. The injuries are not
thought to be of permanent nature,
but it was indeed a narrow escape.
Mrs. Pool, who was driving the car,
is daughter--in-lawo of Mr. and Mrs.
Sidney Pool of this city. The other
occupants of the car We're Mrs. Guy
Pool and children of this city. We are
informed that the accident was no
fault Of the driver of the auto, but was
caused by the handlebars of the BIZ
cycle coming off, thus leaving it un-
comfortable by it's rider.

TRIBUTE
BY Geo. W. Cannady
l knew him long; thru thirty years
Fer this sad day that dawns with
tears
This clearest day of all the train
To measure back DER life again.
A man of short and simple creed,
Conviction strongly backed with deed
He always met me we'll, and seemed
To favor all that l had dreamed.
His willing hand in time of need
Helped harvest where I'd sowed the
seed.
About his faults-why query now.
The hand so cold that held the plow
| 'spose he had some little sin
A kin to mine, but FAR-off kin.
If faults and failings blur the life
That battles this unequal strife,
To know the face was ever turned
Against the flame that ever burned,
Who would deny the cooling shade
Of heavens mount, or ever glade?
Some weakness his, tho less thar
mine
| To cause me to implore fine?
Nay! will l hope that mercy's eye
Thru deaths dark shadow sees the
| sky;
A fairer judgment than l could
OF one who done me naught but
| good.
