The Hattsmouth friends of Barney
Bartlwell. one time resident here and
brother-in-law of Harry Poisall of
this city, will regret very much to
learn that Mr. Bardwell is still suf
fering from the effects of the in
juries received in a railroad wreck a
short distance out of Bloomington,
Illinois, some six months ago.
Mr. Bardwell was firing on the
Illinois Central and was injured in a
collision near Bloomington
, which resulted In the death of the
engineer and his own very severe in
jury that for several days made his
recovery the matter of the gravest
doubt.
j His arm was badly shattered and
severe injuries to his head baffled
surgeons in charge ot the case and
. for several weeks he' lingered near
j death. 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

'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.

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.
