Br WHEELS
Forced to ride several miles on a
brake-beam of last night's No. 6, with
one foot' crushed to bits, was the ex
perience of one Prank King. 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.

MEETING POSTPONED,
Board of Managers Failed to Meet
Last Saturday Night.
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.
Come to our store and see all that is good
