FRICKE & CO., THE REXALL STORE j r-, ; ; PHONE - LAST EVEII6 Balance Wheel on Saw Arbor Bursts, Rendering Such In juries as to Cause Death. -ise Last evening an accident oc curred in Ihe west part of the city that resulted in the death a few hours later or Joseph Ilavir, a resident of (hat part of the city. Mr. Ilavir. assisted by his brother, ugust, was operating a saw which was being run by a gasoline engine, and w as going at a very high rale of speed, when the un fortunate man noticed that the balance wheel on the saw arbor was apparently working loose, and as be stooped to look closer, Ihe wheel, which was of wood, burst, two large sections striking him in the head, inflicting a most terrible wound. The pieces tore open Ihe scalp for quite a length and crushed in the skull, and it was easy to see, as Ihe unfortun ate man was carried into his home, that his hours were few. It happened that Dr. Livingston was passing the residence about Ihe time of Ihe accident, and he was called in by the family, but all efforts to save the life of the injured man were fruitless, and he passed away at 1 o'clock this a '1 morning, having never reyameu consciousness. The deceased leaves a wife, who is not in the best of health, as well as three small children, to mourn his loss, and one brother, August Ilavir, who is employed in the Burlington shops here. The accident was a most, terrible shock to the family, as the saw had been supposed to be in good order, ami it was without warning that the wooden balance wheel burst, with fatal result, to the operator. The funeral of the unfortunate man will be held at the late home Saturday, the hour not having yet been set, and will be in charge of the Z. C. B. J. lodge, of which ho was a member, and interment will be made in Oak Hill cemetery. The loss comes as a very severe blow to the widow and little chil dren and the sympathy of the en tire community will go out to them in this, their hour of grief.
