Whitney was overseas 81 months
during the World war, was gassed
three times and q victim Of aphasia.
His life after the last gas attack was
q blank.
After the war he landed In New
York and obtained job as a federal
prohibition agent. There he met a
young woman known as Mrs. Ann
Whitney, who has lived In St. Paul
with him for the last two years.
When Whitney, at local hospital,
regained consciousness for the first
time since the blow, standing beside
the bed was Mrs. Luella Whitney. who
married him in Grafton, N. D., in 1912
and who bore him twoSsons.
He said he knew nothing Of Ann
Whitney, nothing of the baby soon to
arrive, nothing of the almost complete
divorce proceedings between himself
and Luella and nothing of how he was
hurt.
Whitney had a faint idea that he
had been a government dry agent,
however. He asked his wife how the
boys were and apparently did not real

The grade crossing at FortyNinth
ST. and the Monon Railway is
rated by persons living in the vi
cinity as an extremely dangerous
one, for the reason that Forty
Ninth st. is paved straight up to
the right-of-way. and because fac
tory buildings on both sides are
very close to the tracks, not only
obscuring the view, but serving to
defect the sound of locomotive
whistle or bell, it is declared. There
have been many accidents and nu-
merous narrow escapes, but so far
no fatalities in recent years at this
crossing, according to the neighbors.

$35O,OOO SEE W E K BOND ISSUE IS PLAN AT SELMA
Mayor Approves Proposal And City Council Con-
 sldering Matter

SELMA, Ala, Oct. 6.-.(By Special Leased Wire.)-The subject now most mooted In Selma Is the plan to Issue between s85O,OOO and s5OO,OOO in city bonds for sewrage construction. The mayor having given his unqualified approval of the plan of the issuance and the council having appointed a committee, consisting of Chairman Powell, Councilmen Burns, Phillips and Porter, to which were subse4 quently added the mayor and the city attorney, to consider the matter. The present financial condition of the city Is that the city is now bonded in the sum of s540,00; that the issuance of $500,000 additional bonds would place a bonded debt of S1,040,- 900 on the $4,500,000 real estate and improvement valuation owned by the entire population of the city, which Is slightly more than 25 per cent of the assessed valuation thereof. The second bond issue would place debt on all property, real, personal and mixed of slightly more than 10 per cent on It's assessed valuation. On the contrary. it is shown, by those favoring the bond issue, that the is suance of the bonds would get for Selma an up-to-date and spio and span swerage system and would bring about the employment of good many experts, with also work for some workmen. It would earn for the city low rating In mortality statis- tics.
