James Powers, an inspoctor employed by the City Street department on the Improvements Im-provements being made at tho corner of Sixth South and Main streets, was seriously seri-ously injured Thursday afternoon by being be-ing struck by a plow handle. Ho was assisting another man in piloting tho heavy four-horso plow through tho packed nnd hardened earth of the street when the plowshare struck a rock and came to an abrupt slop, jerking the handles out of the hands of tho men who held them. Powers, in attempting to regain his hold, was struck ln the sldo and knocked down. It was found that two ribs had been broken and that perhaps per-haps other Internal Injuries had been Inflicted. He was taken to his homo on tho east side and was, at last accounts, ac-counts, resting tiuietly. |
