The man gives his name as King Vrom New York, and says he was going west on No. 5 last evening. Shortly after leaving Hllgard, he thinks, he dozed off to sleep. . In this condition one foot lost Its rest and fell In front of a wheel. The terrible pain woke the traveler, but with wonderful pres ence of mind he managed to retain his position on the "rods." The foot was severea. : wnile the passenger train was slowly climbing the hill to Kamela, he clung to his dangerous position. When the train finally came to a stop he called brakemen to his aid. About midnight he was brought to La Grande, by a helper engine and turned over to Dr. Hall. A careful examination revealed the fact that the entire foot would not have to be am putated, but the jagged ends and crushed bones were removed. Mr. sung toaay ties in me new Hos pital with half of one foot gone. The heel :was retained. Dr. Hall bellev s the man's tnjurle will heal without further ampututlon.

The adjourned meeting of the board of managers of the Commercial club for last Saturday night has again been postponed. This time It Is until next Tuesday night, when President Craw ford has requested the attendance of every member. rnrri.r have it addressed to "" street and number." Thus reads Instructions handed out to the patrons of the local postofflce by Postmaster Rlchey. This matter Is urgent If citzens will commence to cultivate the habit of having all cor respondence marked with their house and street number, there will be little difficulty when the mail service Is In operation and when it Is absolutely necessary that each piece of mall be properly addressed. By Informing all irwuus lo Muuui iich c!'.!:"n ,h, city Is in correspondence, that the house and street number must be named on the envelope, the practice will readily be followed when It bo comes necessary to have it done. Then, too, It will mean that where there is no house number, one must be attached at once, for the postofflce department will be in a quandary If all mall does not carry the proper di rections with the address.
