SERIOUS ACCIDENT
BEFALLS WEEPING
WATER LINEMAN
John Cole Falls from Electric Light
Pole and Is Struck in the Eye
by Large Iron Bolt.
From Friday's Daily
John Cole, who has been working
for the company changing our light-
in? svsfprti nistnlhriB- new nosts nnri
. CT i
cutting the wires over, met with a
serious accident last week.
.Friday afternoon, the men were
working in the east part of town, and
.'lOhn went up one of the old poles,
which broke off at the ground, and
as his belt was fastened around the
pole, he was carried to the ground, a
distance of 35 or 40 feet.
A bolt stuck out of the pole about
two inches and when his head hit
the pole, the end of the bolt pene
trated his cheek, running up under
one of his eves, puncturing the tear
duct. His hip was badly bruised,
but nothing serious.
Dr. M. I. Thomas was called and
gave first aid so he could be taken
to Lincoln on the afternoon train to
a hospita!.
The dull bolt made a bad wound
and there is some likelihood cf infec
tion, added to the seriousness of the
injury.
Late reports from the hospital say
John is feeling fine. At first he was
very much discouraged, but as he
i
feels better his courage rises and he
l is hopeful, which adds to his power
to fight it through.

Ice gorges in the Platte river from
Columbus. Neb., as far east as Val

day's World Herald. Dynamiting is
in progress in the vicinity 01 wagon
and railroad bridges over virtually
the whole district. ,
At Columbus blasting is being car-'

by a Union Pacific railroad bridge,
while the Platte was reported last
nifiit Tioiriv hank full ji i though a 1
sni;:il channel Was open on the couth
sid

At Schuyler, the continued thaw
lireatcned a repetition of the disas-j

miters should win their fight against'
the ice eorce in the north channel
of t't.p Plnttp. whilp tho smith phan- i

Tons of explosive are being used,
and while the danger was not con-
sidered imminent, the fact that the
river at that point showed signs of
receding was taken as indicating a
new jam further up.
The river was reported lower at
Fremont last night. Bridge traffic
at this point is continuing.
Fifteen section gangs of the Union
Pacific railroad were used for dyna
miting ice yesterday afternoon near
the Union Pacific bridge across the
Platte river between Omaha and Val

diate danger there, but the channel
must be kept clear.
Two Martin bombing planes, to be
used in the event of ice jams form
ing on the Loup and Platte rivers
where they cross the right of way cf
the Union Pacific have been ordered
to Fort Crook immediately and are
expected to arrive there late this af
ternoon from Chanute Field, Illinois,
