"ping" and "boom" when the loaded
chamber was reached, and the pet dog
fell over a dead one. The screams

GEORGE HASOn DIED
THIS LIORMUG
Small Scratch on the Finger
Some Three Weeks Since
Causes Blood
Poisoning
This morning at about 10:30, George
- ' !
ason, of Mynard, died of blood poison- j
ing, as a result ot getting his hand j
scratched some time since, with a knife j
while butchering. The hand was so
slightly wounded that it was not thought
necessary to treat it at first, until it
became affected, when it grew serious
rapidly, and was one of the most dif
ficult cases to care for that has appear
ed for some time.
The skill of the physician was taxed
to the utmost, and it was with little
hope that anything could be done to
effect a cure, as the case was one of
such virulence. Mr. Mason is a brother-in-law
of Frank Marler, the Blacksmith,
at that place, and leaves a wife and
one child, a boy of about five years of
age. The Mason family came to My
nard about a year ago, from Brad
shaw, succeeding Holmes & Smith in
the general merchandise business, and
selling to W. T. Richardson some three
months. After disposing of his store,
Mr Mason has been doing odd jobs,such
as helping thresh, and things of a simi
lar nature. Announcement relative to
the funeral will appear latter.

who have the matter under considera
tion, and who will meet tomorrow for
deciding upon the proposition.lt is more
than probable that the company will
buy one of the elevators which are at
that point, rather than erect another
and a third one.
The matter of the farmers entering
the grain handling business seems to be
gaining very rapidly. There are farm
ers elevotor companies now at South
Bend, Wabash, Murray, Cedar Creek,
Manley and this one being organized at
Nehawka, makes six and with a promise
of more to follow. The by-laws and
constitution was adopted yesterday at
Nehawka similar to those in vogue at
Murray and Cedar Creek.
In the attempt to purchase the eleva
tor at Nehawka, it seems the farmers
are doing the right thing, for it would
seem that two institution of that kind
would be enough and it is not the inten
tion or should not be, to cause an in
jury to any one.
