Bix, in SOte Journal: The accident
that befell O. C. Bate*, of Atklnaon,
recall! again the bittory of hie long
Itinerary in country journaliam. It
waa thirty-one yeara ago that he found
ed the Northern Vindicator at Esther
rllle, la., and by the originality of hia
writing! gave it much more than a atate
wide reputation. He coined the word
“blizzard” to deaignate the atorma of
wind and enow peculiar to that then
barren and deaolate region. He left
Estherrille the year that Samuel J.
Tllden waan’t elected president, and haa
aince edited varloua papera in aouthern
Iowa and elaewhere. He finally came
*• to Nebraaka to renew hia youth, and
2 bu apoiled hia proa pec ta by falling out
" of a two-atory window and breaking
both wrists. __
Monday morning, about 1 o’clock, 0.
G. Batea waa aerioualy injured by falling
from an open aecond atory window of
the Nightengale brick building on Main
etreet to the plank aidewalk below, a
distance of about fifteen feet Both of
>i hie wriata were broken, hia left elbow
waa thrown ont of joint and he waa
severely bruised and may be aerioualy
injured internally, although it is im
possible to tell aa yet. Before retiring
Sunday night Mr. Bates placed a chair
up to the window and sat down where
he contd get the benefit of a cool breeze,
telling hia wife that he was going to
’ ‘ take a smoke before he went to bed.
Borne time after Mrs. Bates waa awak
ened by hearing hia pipe drop to the
' Boor, and knowing that he had gone to
sleep la the chair she called and asked if
he had not better go to bed. She heard
the chair move aa he roused in response
. . to her call, and then heard him fall, but
p: thought it waa only to the floor until
she went to the Vindow and aaw him
/ lying on the aidewalk below. Night
S' watch Mnmpal wee promptly on tha
scene and Boon -summoned assistance,
and Mr. Bates was carried up to hit
. room nnd Or. Blackburn aummoned ai
MA ■ ■■■ ' :■ '
once. Mr. Bate* fell with enough force
to break a two inch plank in the side
walk where he struck, and as he Ib over
sixty years of age and rather heavy it is
a miracle that he was not killed instant
ly. He must have fallen through the
window while he was still asleep, as he
says he bad no recollection of anything
until he felt himself falling. Mr. Bates
is a newspaper man and is quite prom
inently known over the state. Up to
the present time he is doing as well as
coulo be expected, and it is to be hoped
that his injuries will not prove fatal and
that his recovery may be speedy.
