WALTER ETHER|DGE FATALLY INJURED IN FALL FROM TREE

A fatal accident occurred at the Juan Miller ranch, owned by Ed Laney, eighteen miles north of Met calf, ou Tuesday evening, when Wal gee. Etharidge. aged 3S years. fell from a tree, striking on his head.
 The Injured man was brought to the hospital in Clifton by Arthur Slaughter who was at the ranch with his automobile, and was at tended by Drs. Rowan, of Metcalf and Dr. Thompson, of Clifton, but the efforts of the surgeons proved unavailing, and the injured man died at the hospital on Wednesday even ing
 Several families were stopping at the Juan Miller ranch with their children and Etheridge was amusing them by cutting up antics in a tree in the ranch yard One of his stunts was hanging from a limb by his toes. much to the delight of his juvenile audience. While performing one of his .'acts" his feet slipped from the limb and he fell head foremost to the ground, a distance of only three or four feet.
 When he was picked up his body was paralyfied but he was concious and could talk. He was taken into the house and his neck and back mas saged but without relief and it was evident that he was seriously hurt.
 The doctor from Metcalf was sum moned and the injured man moved on a stretcher in Slaughter's auto to Clifton.
 An examination showed that the vertebrae haG been dislocated and the patient ran high fever. He passed away after twenty four hours.
 Funeral services were held at the Methodist Church on Thursday and the body was transported by auto to Lordsburg for interment where relatives reside.
 The deceased was veteran of the World War and was formerly in the employ of Arthur Slaughter as a cowboy.
