Shrader, one of the most prominent residents of Cass county, will regret very much to learn that Mr. Shrader is apt to lose the sight of one of his eyes per manently as the result of an acci dent that befell him a week ago Thursday. Mr. Shrader had a particle of metal lodge in the eye and while it was removed successfully at home the wound became infected and pain ed him for several days and finally on the advice of his family he con sulted a specialist in Omaha as to the injury. The injured eye had been allowed to go too long in the infected con dition and the verdict of the special ist was that the sight of the injured eye had been almost destroped and that there was very small chance of having the sight restored by a course of treatments. It is hoped by the family and friends that the injury may, after treatment, pass away, partially at least, and allow the use of the eye. We appreciate yoai ass7atanoe in helping us to publish all the news. Li phone No. 6. 3 ring.
