159,000 SUIT
FOR DUCES
Suit for $50,000 damages was filed
In tho circuit court last evening by
W. E. I'lerco against the Pelican Hay
Lumber company. Plaintiff alleges
that whllo employed by the defend
ant as a laborer In a logging camp
on upper Klamath Lake, August 19,
1918, ho received sevcro bodily In
juries when struck by a rolling car,
and that tho Injuries were due to
nogllgenco of defendant In failure to
provldo proper facilities.
Plaintiff was working at a log
landing, along sldo the logging track.
He asserts tat o landing was built
dangerously close to the track, and
that the track waa laid on a down
hill grade, so that ears would not
ataad upon It even when the brakes
were att He says that the grade
waa needles and the track could
fhave keen iwrv .Marvel Krone.

While working under the eondl
Mens he describes, he says, and with
out negligence upon his part, he-was
struck by a water car, unattached to
any engine or locomotive, and severe
ly crushed and manglod. As further
ground for damages he alleges he
waa given Improper medical treat
ment and that no attempt was made
to relieve his Internal and spinal In
juries. As a result he claims that ho was
put to great loss of time and his
earning capacity Is probably perma
nently Impaired. He says be will-be
forced to spend a largo amount .of
money for treatment If he Is cured-or
Relieved of his Injuries, or even-saves
hi life.

ONE FUME
FREEDOM'S PRICE
Frank B. Robinson, pharmaclst-at
tho Warren Hunt hospital, Is In re
ceipt of a letter from his brother,
Sydney Herbert Robinson, who was
reported "killed In action" during
the World War. From the contents
of the letter It would appear that the
report of the death was exaggerat
ed. Far from being dead, Sydney
Robinson Is very much alive, and waa
rocently elected vice-president of-the
street railway employees' union of
Toronto, Canada.
Four of Mr. Robinson's family-saw
active service In the great war, and
three of them made the supreme
sacrifice. The father, Colonel John
Henry Robinson, as surgeon wlth-the
Royal Army Medical corps') was killed
by the explosion of a shell In the
hospital tent In which ho was ren
dering first aid on the battle front.
A brother, Captain Leonard Robin
son, was killed on tho Gall(pol) pen
insula. He won five medals, Includ
ing tho coveted Victoria Cross, and
In this connection It Is worthy of
note that another brother, Arthur
Robinson, who lost his life In a sub
marine,' also won the V. C, making
one of the very tew Instances on rec
ord of two crosses in one family.
Sidney Robinson, of Toronto, waa
also reported as dead, and his letter
to his brother waa a very pleasant
shock" to Frank, wke believed him
self to be the only survivor of hla
family. The letter statae that five

Frank Robinson, to round out the
story, served as U. S. laboratory as
sistant at Manila, P. I., during the
war. This constitutes a reraarkabfe
example of all-around,' family ser
