BOY BADLY HURT. • _To save the, life ... 91_,AeLLI- ear -o d Raymond Sharbarker, who was bra y cut about the leg by a mowing ma- chine driven by his father', a - record - breaking run in an automobile was made from McAllister_ to Butte day before yesterday, taking the boy to ttit. Jantes hosp tal. The i ury ap- pened about 10 o'clock Wednesday morning, and as the local . physician did not have the proper facilities, and fearing that amputation might be necessary, a fast machine was press- ed into service and Mrs. Sharbarker and Dr. Holmson accompanied the lad on his arduous trip. At the hospital his injuries received attention and it is believed that amputation ..will not be nhcessary. Unless blood poisoning should set in or there should be oth.; er complications there is no doubt re- garding his ultimate recovery. FROM HOME PARK.
