Lodare in His Eye.
Herbert Burhee. a former resident
of Plaitsmouth and now ens-aged in
working on the road patrol out of
Man?e, was the victim of a very se
vere accident this post week that
has laid him up at the hospital ami
may result in the permanent iujury
of his right eye.
He was engaged in working on one
of the trucks that are used in the
maintenance of the highways and
was underneath the truck attempt
ing to drive a small file in a key
slot, to replace a key that had fallen
out and lost, when a small part of
tht; end of the file chipped off and
lodged in his right eye.
The injury was very painful
and caused a. great deal of suffering
to the gentleman, who was hurried
as soon as possible to the Methodist
hospital in Omaha to have the in
jured eye elrosspt! and where he- has
since boon taking treatment.
It is ltoped that the injury can be
eared for so as to save the siaht of
the eye for Mr. Durbee. but the in
jury has caused him" a great deal of
suffering and pain and will keep
him out of commission for some time
nt least.
