HAND GROUND OFF.
Slid Accident to Robert Daly nt the
Clill Works.
Robeit Daly, a young man, exper
ienced the sensation of having part of
his right hand giound off by a drilling
machine yesterday at the Cliff works
of the DIt kson Slanulucturlng com
pany He was in chaige of the ma
chine. At the Lackawanna hospital, where
Daly was taken, the surgeons cut
away the mangled shreds, leaving
only part of the hand remaining.
The accident happened at 11 o'clock
in tlio morning. Daly wns engaged
in dillllng out with the machine In
his chaige a piece of .steel, to be used
on a locomotive. The steel rented In
u 111 in giooved bed of the machine,
and the dillllng tool, a pecullaily
shaped piece of steel, cjllndiical in
lonn nnd notched with sharp teeth of
steel, which. In turning from the
steam power, also moved back and
foith over the suifnce of the matter
under lonstiuctlou.
Just how It wiiv that Daly's hand
was cnught between this wicked dril
ling tool nnd the steel in the bed was
not known to hl.s fellow woikmen. The
joung man was nlone at IiIh woik.
They heaid him cry out In pain and
upon leaching his side found Daly
gazing with a stamp of tenor cm his
face, at the mangled end of his tight
hand. To stop the (low of blood the
woikmen wound n rope around Dalj's
wilst and led him to the open all.
At the door he fainted aw a v. A
short time ufteiwiud the ambulance
fiom the Lackawanna hospital arrived
and Daly was taken there. At the hos
pital last night Daly's condition was
not alaimlng. He boards on Fianklln

THE HOLAND CASE.
Sir. Holand Is accused ot embezzling
$7.50 n county tnxes. The allegation Is
that he tuined In Items to this amount
on tho exoneiatlon list and nfteiwardH
collected them. His defense Is that he
turned In his exoneiatlon list but It
wns not uppioved for somo time In
the lntMlm he was In the county com
missioners' olllce casuall one day and
Cleik Wagner suggested that the dupli
cate ought to be settled and asked him
to check off such of the items tis he
might have collected since the list wns
tuined In.
He had not data at hand but from
memory went over the list and check
ed off nil, as ho supposed, that he had
collected. He afterwards discovered
that ho had missed some and when
making his next return to tho county
treasuier ljo turned in tho $7.50 differ

Great musicians use Kimballs. The
testimony of musicians who command
a salary of from $1,000 to $2,000 fo- each
perfotmance must be accepted as hav
ing weight. They, at least, escape the i
charge of not knowing what they
talking about. Lillian Nordlca says!
"The more I use my Kimball piano the
better I like it." Jean De Reszke says:
"We have concluded to purcha.se Kim
ball pianos for our peisonal use." John
Philip Sousa claims: "The Kimball
piano Is flrst-ciass In evciy respect."

Our friends who have used
these garments should not be
