Lost Nearly All of Hand.

While at work at the Ferguson
and Collier saw mill near Atpont-
ley last Saturday Arthur Johnson
had the misfortune to lose almost
his entire right hand. He was
in the dust pit under the saw
at the mill to clean away some of
the dust which had accumulated
there when some way his hand
came in contact with the saw
which had just started running.
His thumb and first two fingers
of his right hand were cut smooth
and the ring finger was badly
lacerated. His wounds were
dressed by DR.. l. Barnes and he
is doing as we'll as could be ex-
pected. ---Pikeville Banner.

The guests arose with anxious mien
And tptoed forward toward the pair
Expectant of stormy scene.
No one could think what had been done
To cause the strain between the two;
Both had admirers; every one
Would feel relief when it was through.

Fur-Wrapped and ready for the street.
Blue of eye and sweet of face,
Poised herself on dainty feet.
But why could not he lether go?

He held his ground, nor seemed to show
Symptom of pulsing heart.
Aha! The crisis has been passed.
She's free to go where e'er she may;

To stop her flight or say her nay,
He raised foot to scratch his ear.
And opportunity came up
To cause smile and cheCka tear.

fill near the former Minor place
north of here, saw car approach,
ing him at terrific speed, He
pulled off to the side of road, in
fact, onto the side of the fill and
stopped his engine. The other
car was driven right up at him
and Mr.. Hudson thought was
going to run into him, when ii
was suddenly swerved around
him, still at a fast rate of speed.
AS it passed it's rearwheel struck
the rear of Mr.. Hudson's auto,
knocking the fender loose. If it
had struck his rear wheel, Mr..
Hudson believes it would have
turned his car into the ditch,
which would have wrecked his
car badly and perhaps injured him
and his young brother who was
with him. The number of the
wildly driven auto as near as
could be made out was 39321.

UNCLE TOMS LETTER.


Editor News
was talking to a Methodist
preacher the other day and he asked
me if | had ever seen book the
Catholic Church has ever published
fighting or criticising other denom-
snations. | said no, and asked him
if he had ever seen one. He said
no. | told him | didn't believe any
such books were ever published, ,"And
further" said /, ssall the priests l ev-
er talked to had no word of criticism
for anyone" "Now," said /, "there
is more unity among Catholics. than
any other people ever met and the
Episcopalians come next. The fact
is said |, sit seems some denomina-
tions are so dissatisfied with their re-
liglon that they delight in fighting
Catholicism"
All the renegades and traitors to
the Catholic Church delight in tell
ing notorious falsehoods, and the
credulous of the other denomina.
tons be eieve what they say and re.
peatit | used to think and believe
the Catholics were the most cruel
prosecutors of Christians the world
ever saw.
| found out the awful and terrible
prosecutions laid at the door of the
Catholic Church was as false as hell
itself. Christianity never prosecuted
any one, but I'll tell you what has.
Politics. There IS nothing good in
politics and never was, | don't care
what kind of whltewash you give it.
Politics killed Christ and destroyed
all the Apostles. Politics today is
exiling men and women and throw
ing Others into prison, just as 1t has
always done and will continue to do
so long as the forces of Caesar rule
and have dominion. Politics causes
more division and raises more hell
on earth than any other thing among
men. Politics, pure and clean, is an
unknown quantity. A real democ-
racy does not exist and never will so
long as partizanism exists. The
Church does not lend her aid and in
fluence except for the right. That
is the duty of every Christian.
So it is my duty to vote for
righteous man, not an adultereri nor
any one living in adultery, and a
rum-soaked being.
Gods laws first with me before
man-made laws.
! came into contact the other day
with Smart Alex who claimed to |
be a preacher and he jumped on the
Catholic Christians with vengeance;
asked HIM if he ever knew of
Catholic brother going to law with
brother. "No," said be, shut"
