EMORY MILLS IS IMPROVING.

C. E. Mills was called to Indianapolis last Saturday by the injuries received by bis son in the Purdue special wreck on the Big4, an extended account of which appears on the inside pages of The Democrat. Young Mills was a substitute player in the Purdue football team, and was in the illfated front coach, where so many lost their lives. Emory had his left leg broken above the knee and a bone was broken in the ankle of the same limf). He also had a severe blood rupture on the broken limb, besides numerous other bruises. His seatmate and most of those surrounding him were killed. He is now in a hospital at Indianapolis and is said to be getting along all right. Another young man of this vicinity who was slightly injured in the wreck was Clark Meyers of Monticello.
