He was treated at the St. j Anthony hospital in Chicago and al ' so at Bloomington and seemed to j show some improvement and was al J lowed to return home where he has ; since been treated, j In the last few weeks his injured ' arm has again been giving him a great deal of pain and last Wednes day he was again taken to the hos- ; pital where the arm was slit from I the wrist to the elbow in order to permit the removal of decayed bone ; that threatened blood poison in the ti-1 III. 1 III 1 r d3 x &:cttl ucai kjl lut decayed bone removed and the arm is still useless and the attending surgeons are of the opinion that the amputation of the member will prob- h1v ho nuppssiirv 9 little hone of 'saving the arm is held out to the unfortunate man and his family. The family in letters to the rela tives here state that the injuries to he head of Mr. Bardwell still make necessary the draining of the wounds and that they are slow in'healing and it is thought that possibly an other operation on the head may be necessary to try and give the un fortunate man any relief, but in his worn condition due to the long suf fering and the ordeal that he has been through it will be a most severe strain on him. visitor In this city today for a few hours attending to some matters at the court house. j E.

GAS TAX LAW IS IN EFFECT AT STATIONS TODAY Additional Two Cents Will Be Placed On Price of Gasoline Sold In Nebraska. From Wednesday's Daily Effective today there is an addi tional cost of two cents added to the price of each gallon of gasoline sold in this state, caused by the placing of the gasoline tax of two cents that it is expected will add several mil lions to the funds for the good roads movement in this great state. At the Texaco station, Henry Ofe, the manager, states that the price of. gasoline today sold at his station was 221.4 c per gallon while the price from the truck was 20 c. The additional two cents it is esti mated will prove a great boon to the good roads movement in the state and it has been strongly urged that this tax is one of -the most just to maintain the roads , with, as tho per rons who travel the most will pay the heaviest amount toward road maintaining. The economical car drivers were busy last evening getting their gas tanks filled up to save the extra two cents, but from now on they will have to pay the cast of the tax. The tax is levied on the gasoline at the time of its disposal to the dealer and paid at that source, the dealer in gasoline collecting his tax from the consumer. ill Delightful new Spring Silk Dresses for your Easter cos tume.
