During the spring and summer we bought a
large quantity of prepared paints. Within the
past ten days all paint manufacturers have no
tified their customers that the price of paints
had been increased 10 to 15c, per gallon owing
to the iailure of the flaxseed, crop and other
causes. This means an increase of 15 to 25c per
gallon to the consumer. As long as they last

Close Call From Nitro-Uljcerlnc
Frank Hall, the well-known torpedo
man, had both of hishands badly lacer-
atod, and also had a close call from a fatal
Injury through the premature discharge
of a 10-quart shot ol' nitro-glycerine about
3 o'clock on Saturday afternoon. The
sceno of the accident was on the Ball
property, 13 miles from here and 2 miles
from Eagle Rock. Mr. Course, the con
tractor, of this city, hud drilled the well
into the Speechley saud but the well was
too light to pay as a gssser, aud he deter
mined to pull the casing. In attempting
to do this early in the week tho casing
stuck, and in trying to loosen it the con
tractor had a set of jars, a casing spear
and some other tools fast. He drilled
around tho tools and on Friday fired four
dry shots to loosen the tools and easini.',
au I on Saturday followed this up with
two other shots of tho explosive. It was
the second of these that caused the dam
age. Hall had lowered it into the well at
the required depth nnd was taking off tho
wire when a stone inside of the well drop
ped and struck tho torpedo, and it was ex
ploded. Fortunately lor Mr. H dl some
thing at the rear of him had attracted his
attention aud he had turned his head side
wise aud back to look, and this saved
him from having his head blown off. As
it was his cheek aud neck were lacerated
with small gravel, sand and fragments
Qf tin and wire. He had hold of tho tor
pedo wire at the time, aud both of his
hands were lacerated to the bone with
wire and tin. His shirt front was ripped
off, as were also the buttons on his vest
aud coat, and his cap was blown bo far
that he could not find it. Mr. Cours was
on the floor of the derrick and bi ought
tho young man to Oil C ty where he was
treated on Saturday afternoon, and on
Sunday the probe located another bent
piece of wire iu his hand. It is not
thought that his hand will bo crippled.
