BADLY INJURED

YOUNG SON OF Mr.. w. E. DREW

While hunting near his home late
Saturday afternoon w, A. Drew, II
year old son of Mr.. and Mrs. w. h.
Drew, had his left hand badly man
gled and his shoulder badly injured
when the shot gun he had with him
went off. It seems that young Drew
had the gun cooked, his hand over the
end of the berrel and was attempt
ing to get over a wire fence when
the gun was discharged, the load go
ing through his hand, severely wound
ing him in the shoulder and slightly
burning the left side of his face.
Had the barrel of the gun been a
little lower the load would have en-
tered the boys breast about the heart
and probably would have been killed
instantly. One of the fingers had to
be amputated, while the other part
of the hand is badly mangled,. and
there is a severe wound in his shout,

as could be expected.

Nothing more discouraging than a

MINSTRELS
COMING TO DAWSON SOON

Coburn's Minstrels are coming to
Dawson again, as they have been do

will show at the Palace Theater on
Saturday, December 18th. For the
first time in good many years the
company will give a matinee here.
Manager Mitchell stated that he be-
lieved that by showing on Saturday
afternoon that hundreds of people
would have an opportunity of seeing
Coburn's Minstrels who would not
have an opportunity of coming at
night. Coburn has always played to
packed houses heretofore, and Mr..

by giving two shows he will be able
to accommodate the crowds that he
couldn't hope to by just having one

METHODIST CONGREGATION
HEAR VISITING MINISTER'S
Revs. l.. w. Colson and J. w. Patter-
SON Filled Pulpit Sunday.


Visiting ministers filled the pulpit
at the Methodist church Sunday. Rev.
10, w. Colson, presiding elder of the
McRae district, preached at the IL
o'clock hour and Rev. j. w. Patter-
son. pastor of the Rocky Ford church,
at night. Mr.. Colson selected as his
text the words, Il am come that they
might have life and that they might
have it more abundantly." John 10
10. He emphasized the thought that
Jesus Christ is the worlds only hope
of redemption. He spoke of the
character of man made by the other
great religions and, over against this,
the man who comes as the product
of Christianity.
Mr.. Patterson, who is the son OF
DIR. and Mrs. ]. W. Patterson of this
citv. selected as the basis of his re-
marks the words, Eye shall receive
nower after that the Holy Ghost is
come upon you" Acts 1-8. The mes
sage was a clear, strong presentation
of the church's need of divine power
for the work to which God has called
it. The speaker called attention TO
the fact that God will not bestow this
gift indiscriminately but that He does
bestow it when the conditions upon
which it is promised are met.
Both ministers are well known IN
Dawson, and their many friends here
welcomed the opportunity OF hearing
them again.

Taxpayers are slower settling with
