They were placed on train and taken to Los Angeles, wi ere they entered the Pacific hospital. The lad had a fracture of the skull, but thn inner bones were not injured. From tbe letter written by Mrs. Proper, it is evident that the first accounts of the accident were considerably exaggerated. Latest re ports received by friends here aie to the effect that it was expected that both Mr, Proper and Curtis would leave the bos. pital on the 1st inst., and they are prob ably around again now.

Tho Now Year's number of Hie Pitts burg Dispatch was a great treat to its many readers. It consisted of :$2 pages (just think of it!), containing a complete resume ol events of 1902, accurate and re liable. It was not only of interest to the hundreds of thousands of Dispatch read ers in the Pittsburg territory, but inval tisble to 4II, no matter where, for it was a ready reference to thousands of useful and interesting items. Undoubtedly it wan the best number of its kind evcrpub lislied, and one which could be issutd only by one of the greatest journals in the United Stutes. No wouder the Dispatch enjoys the largest circulation of an Pittsburg paper! It is the only He morning paper published in that city, and that partly accounts lor its wondorlul popularity. The people know it pays to buy the best, and it holds good w ith the Dispatch, for very few think of the trilling 4 cents dillcrence (the daily being only 10c by the week.) Those who are not now taking the Dis patch should at once subscribe, as they will not regret it. When you do sub scribe ask the newsdealer to send nd gat you a copy of that gnat Keview Kilition. It alone is worth the prico of a six months' subscription. Pittsburgers should be proud of their gicat paper.
