ICY SIDEWALKS
HAVE CAUSED
NUMEROUS FALLS
From Wednesday's- Daily.
The past few days has been pro
ductive of some very close calls from
serious accidents on the sidewalks and
streets, which have been covered with
an icy coating that has made travel
for man or beast difficult, and the list
of those who had falls as a result
would comprise the greater part of
the city directory. A numberof the
tesidents of the city who were out
early Sunday morning shovedel off the
snow and sleet before it had hardened
by the freeze and this has made a
few of the walks as havens between
the icy wastes of the other walks. The
storm made good use of the surplus
supply of cinders, however, as they
and ashes were in the greatest of de
mand as first aids against the slippery
sidewalks. The condition of the streets
has become a little better with the
autos and wagons cutting the roadway
so that it is now possible to get
through without having the autos slide
and skid around on the smooth and
icy streets, and the horses are much
better fixed to stand up in pulling
their loads oevr the highways. Par
ties in autos who- have made the trip
from the center of the county state
that the roads are in fair condition
with occasionally very icy places that
makes the driving of a car very dif
ficult. SUES DENTIST FOR $10,000.

Miss Bessie Tolliver, South Six
teenth street, Saturday sued Dr.
George W. Todd, dentist, for 10,000
damages, alleging that.while treatmg
her teeth he cut off a sound tooth and
damaged her jaw so that the expres

U. G. W URL HAS BAD FALL.
i'rom Tuesday's Iai!y.
This morning when B. G. Wurl, the
genial cigar manufacturer, was en
gaged in some work around his home
on Granite street, he experienced a
rather painful fall on the sleet and
mow on the sidewalk in the yard. He
had just stepped out of the door when
he slipped and fell alighting on the
right shoulder, bruising it in a very
painful manner and making it difficult
to use the right arm. He was able to
be on the job, however, despite the
painful injury.
