time and energies to our corner store and the new
goods for Fall, we have disposed of every single
damaged article in our stock to outside parties, but
we have until Saturday night to sell out of them.

Injured While Visiting in Council
Bluffs, on Sunday Last.
Fred Ramge yesterday was seriously
injured at Council Bluffs by a hard fall
received at the hide house of W. It.
Lindsey& Co. Mr. Ramge, in company
with Carl Kunsmann, his partner, and
W. A. Lindsey, were going through the
hide house on a tour of inspection, when
Mr. Ramge, in crossing over a
catch basin slipped and fell into the ba
sin, a distance of some five feet. He
struck upon his left side on a piece of
two by six, striking just below the first
rib and badly bruising the left side.
Several ribs were forced up and out of
place. Mr. Kunsmann and Mr. Lindsey
at once went to to the unfortunate man's
assistance, and picking him up laid him
upon an improvised stretcher. When
Mr. Ramge struck the timber he cried
out: "Oh! God, I'm hurt," and fainted
away. As soon as he had been placed
upon the stretcher efforts were made to
obtain medical assistance, but this took
some time, as almost all the physicians
were absent from home enjoying the
breezes of Lake Manawa. Finally, Dr
Matt Tinley was secured, and upon his
arrival he gave Mr. Ramge a hypoder
mic injection to allay the fearful pain
he was suffering, and ordered ice placed
upon the injured part. Mr. Ramge's
ribs were badly swollen and the physi
cian was afraid they were broken. He
also feared that the stomach was rup
tured. Owing to Mr. Ramge's serious
condition Dr. Tinley thought a surgical
examination advisable and wanted him
removed to a hospital. Mr. Ramge ob
jected vigorously, as he did not consider
himself so badly injured and insisted
that he be taken home.
After a supper of soft boiled eggs,
toast and coffee, Messrs. Kunsmann and
Lindsey carried Mr. Ramge to a car on
which he was conveyed to Omaha and
taken to the Missouri Pacific train which
brought him to this city at midnight
last night. He was taken to his home
in a hack and this morning he had med
ical attendance, Dr. Cook being sum
moned. He made an examination and
found that Mr. Ramge had suffered a
severe bruise upon the left side, the
entire region of his ribs being badly
pounded up. He found that no ribs
had been broken and the stomach was
not ruptured. He applied the neces
sary remedies and this morning Mr.
Ramge was resting easier.
While the injury is not dangerous it
is decidedly painful and will occasion
Mr. Ramge a great deal of trouble. It
will likely confine him to his bed for
some time to come and prevent his
looking after his duties at the meat
market. Mr. W. A. Lindsey carne
down with him from Council IJ luffs and
today is assisting Mr. Kunsmann in at
tending to the wants of the customers
at the market.
