MAN BADLY INJURED
WHEN SILO FELL OVER

Andrew Stauffer of Ramona came
near getting killed last week while
working on a wooden silo between
here and Ramona. 1t was windy and
he was trying to put up the silo, but
the wind was so strong it blew the
silo over and he fell with it.. Stauf-
fer was taken home and it was found
that he was badly bruised and one
arm broken. He is getting along
nicely, but there was a report for
several days that he was dead. This

OF Quarantine.
BY A. H. Forney.


Camp Doniphan, Oct. 21.-Editor
Reflector: On Thursday of last week
we had the pleasure of being review
ed by Governor Capper who gave us
q very appropriate address on Why
We Were At War" and also on buy
ing liberty bonds, which our men are
taking very literally. Company II
of u regiment, which has at pres
ent only eighty men, has subscribed
over $4,000, and other companies
are following closely to that amount.
Governor Capper found that there
is one state that outdoes Kansas for
wind, as we were also visited on that
day by one our many windstorms.
Every company was excused from
duty and it was a holiday in Camp
Doniphan.
The morning was taken up in the
field day events and am proud to say
that the 10th regiment of engineers
won the trophy. Frank Madden and
myself were the only two entered
from Abilene and that was in the
tug-of-war. Every branch of serv-
ice had a team or entries in all
events, so we feel pretty good.
Was over 20 see the boys of Co. h
this afternoon and they are still IN
quarantine, but expect the lid lift
ed soon. They are all feeling fine
and hope that they can get out and
get into the work of regulation drill.
While there saw Harold Roger and a
young man by the name of Hague,
who worked for A. NJ. Ward, and
they report things all well with their
work.
Saw Harold Shirk yesterday who
is in our regiment, or rather in the
ambulance corps, and attached to the
regiment. Also saw Earl Laney, who
is first sergeant in Co. F, 139th
infantry. This company is made up
of men from Montgomery & Ward
of Kansas City.
Tonight | had the pleasure of is
suing our first donation of useful
things for soldiers, which came from
the ladies' of Kansas City, Kan,
which was dish towels made from
used flour sacks. ripped and hemmed
These will be very useful as the
small useful things are very much
appreciated by the boys.
