BRIDGE TIES FALL
UPON WORKMEN.
Three Men Badly Iujured in the
Railroad Yards at Cotter.
Cotter, June 15.—Three men
were seriously injured, one of

cident in the material yards here
today. A pile of bridge ties
against which the men were
standing suddenly fell upon them.
George Martin, a driver for the
Reynolds Construction Company,
sustained serious injuries about
the back and was also hurt inter
nally. His injuries are feared to
be fatal.
J. C. Wallace of Pittsburg,
1\ on u'qc ininroH intprnnllv
and his arm was badly cut and
bruised.
E. A. Osborn of Dublin, Ark.,
was internally injured and both
legs were broken below the knee.
It is considered almost a mira
cle that all .hree men were not
crushed beneath the heavy ties.
They were resting in the shade
of the ties when without any
warning the pile toppled over
upon them.

WELDON NOTES.
We wonder why Mr. Bicker:
did not go up and play checkers
Glen and Clyde Handel of Au
vergne were seen to pass througl
here Sunday morning.
John Starns, Jr., returned Sun
day from St. Louis, where he ha:
been attending the fair.
You had better look out, Ikey
Some one seems to be getting
you bested.
H. E. Bragg of Newport was
seen on our streets of late talk
ing insurance.
An ice cream supper was giver
at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W.
T. Sweat Friday night and all re
port a nice time.
Ed Robinett of Tupelo was out
driving Sunday with one of Wel
don’s fair sex. Look out, Ed;
some one objects to this.
Ab Mustin of Tupelo was up
last week to relieve D. F. Kim
brough, our clever agent here,
until he could make a trip to
Memphis.
Jtimes Higgs of Tupelo was si
in our city Friday night with a
broad smile on. Seems as though
he was looking for some one.
Weldon has the same fad as
Rattle Box says Diaz has. The
young ladies are seen walking
around by themselves. We be
beve the boys have lost hopes,
and as this is leap year they will
give the young ladies a chance.

Time Tells
The Story.
There is a big difference be
tween the cost of making a first
class sewing machine, embodying
the best materials and workman
ship, and one which is made in the
cheapest manner. The buyer of
the cheap machine soon pays the I
difference of price in the constant j
cost for repairs, to say nothing of j
its annoying inefficiency. I
