serious Acciden,


Serious Accident.
A young man named Jenkins, residing near
Utica station on the Win0na & St Peter Rail-
road, met with serious accident on Thursday
morning, which threatens to deprive him Of
the use of his left hand. 1t appears he was
riding on reaper in wheat field, with a gun
in his hand which was loaded, and by some
means the piece was discharged, the contents
passing laterally through his left hand and
completely carrying away portions OF all four
of the bones of the palm of the hand. The
wounded man was brought down to Winona,
and an operation performed by DIR. Staples, by
which the shattered portions of the bone were
removed, and the parts brought together with
out amputating the fingers e. Wisona Repub-
Ecm.
The Hon. Caleb Gushing, of Massachusetts,
has come into possession by purchase and
otherwise of nearly all the property in our
ueighboring town Of ST. Croix. BE expected

settlers and give new impetus TO business
