For laundry, for sickroom—' most all pain relieving— For milk that is malted, beef extract or tea For hot water bags—why, ‘tis past all believing How handy a good Champion heater can be; ‘The Champion gas heater, the nickel-plate heater— No living without one henceforward for me, George T. Harris, of the Register, had a thrilling experience last night out on the Cairo road, en route home from work. He recently built hima suburban residence in Rowlandtown, and last night started home about midnight, as usual Mr. John Terrell loaned him a horse and everything went well until the outskirts of the city were reached, despite the fact that there were no lights in that section, Just as he passed the old powder magazine two men stepped out and commanded him to halt. But he was too badly frightened to helt. In fact, although he intended to accede to the highwaymen’s demand, when he realized what he was doing his horse was going in the opposite di- rection. The workmen in the main sewer on South Third street had a narrow es- cape from instant death this morning about 9 o'clock. ‘The big trenching machine was in operation when one of the buckets, which had not been securely attached before being drawn up, fell upon one of the beams and it snapped as if it were a straw. ‘This rred all the others off, and they fell in all directions, many of them nar- and|rowly missing the workmen below. There was instant consternation in the ditch, and the workmen began clambering out in great confusion, and it was some time before the ma- chine was repaired It is almost a miracle that someone was not hit by one of the buckets, which would have resulted in death, as they weigh over 300 pounds, — It is the first accident of its kind that ever happened at the ditch and the contractors are very glad that it re- sulted no more seriously than it did.
