RU NAWAY TEAM
 CAUSES EXCITEMENT

A runaway team belonging to the Premier Gold Mining Go. created considerable excite ment along International Way and in Hyder, B. C., Thursday morning by flashing down the road between Premier Avenue and the Crawford dock, after overturning the sleigh to which they were attached and severe ly injuring their driver, Mel Mattheson. Thomas Powers, of the Premier transportation for ces, who was in the sleigh when it overturned, was also a vic- tim, being severely scratched in falling on the frozen snow.
 The sleigh upset while round ing the corner of Premier Ave. into International Way and the two occupants were flung vio- lently to the ground. MT. Math- ieson held on to the lines in an effort to stop the frightened team and was dragged con- siderable distance before let ting go. As a result of the un- fortunate attempt he is in the hospital suffering from either broken collar bone or a dis located shoulder, the exact trouble not having been deter mined at the time of writing.
 The team dashed madly along the road to Hyder, B. C., and headed for Stewart, but ran in- to another team on the bride near the Crawford dock. In the encounter one of the runaway horses was thrown off the bridge onto the tide flat below. The animal sustained no ap- parent injury and was finally hauled back to the road with the aid of a block and tackle.

CABIN OWNER IS
 SERIOUSLY BURNED

Ed. Fernald, pioneer resident
 of the camp, was seriously
 burned in a fire which practic-
 ally destroyed his cabin on
 Premier Avenue Thursday af- ternoon. The blaze is said to
 have been caused by an explos-
 ion of oil used by MT. Fernald in starting a fire in the stove
 prior to leaving for his work on the Premier ore dock, where
 he was employed on the night shift. MT. Fernald was alone at the time and, owing to the
 painful nature of his injuries little could be learned of what actually occurred before his calls attracted the attention of Erie Lindgard and Edward Fin layson, school boys, who were in the school house, a short dis tance away. The lads seized fire extinguishers and hastened to the burning cabin in time to see MT. Fernald emerge in his underclothes and then reenter the burning building.A moment later he came out again with his clothing in flames. Young Finlayson displayed his pres ence of mind by turning the stream from his extinguisher upon the flaming figure and it was probably due to his prompt action that MT. Fernald was saved from being roasted alive. Holger Johnson and Holly Ev- ans then reached the scene and fully extinguished the burning clothing by rolling unfortunate man in the snow. He was then wrapped in robes and hurried to the hospital, where it was found that he was badly burned on the stomach, both lower limbs and on the throat.
 In the meantime Eric Lind gaard had spread the alarm by ringing the church bell and a large number of volunteer fire fighters and the big chemical cart speedily arrived on the scene. By this time the cabin was wrapped in flames and lit tie could be done to save the structure, which was practic- ally consumed with most of it's contents. The loss, which in- cludes the personal effects of several o f M r. Fernald's friends, left with him for safe keeping, is estimated at ap- proximately $2,000.
 The latest reports indicate that MT. Fernald is i n pre- carious condition as a result of his injuries.

A temporary curtailment of development activities at the Georgia River Mines property on Georgia River is reported by several former members of the crew, who came to town last week. All but four of the crew are said to have been laid off and the compressors were closed down at the time. they left. It is understood that the reduction in activities is tenn porary.
Hyder weekly herald., 1930-01-18

Space Goes not permit of de- tailed discussion of the figures at this time; but it may be said that the statement reveals that the maintenance costs are in no way excessive, averaging but $20 per diem last year, while the per capita. costs, although varying considerably in pro- portion to the total expense and the number of patient days, compare favorably with those of similar institutions in much larger centers. Recent figures covering the costs of one of the larger Vancouver hospitals, handling many hun derds of patients yearly, dis closed per capita costs almost equal to those of the local hos pital in 1928, the largest pat tent year in it's history.
 In view of the conditions un- der which, the hospital oper- ates and taking into consider ation the very small average of patient days, the statement is a credit to the management.
