SAD EVENT.
Two Men Buried Alive By the caS"sIn Of Fleezs-


Between nine and ten o'clock, on the morn
ing Of the nth inst, our Citizens were startls1
by . startling report to the effect that the -
clstern, which is being constructed in the no.
Ond ward, had caved in, burying two MaQ
ran.ed A. H Sanford and Benjamin Krann
who were working in il at the time. R~e 4
fsw moments elapsed before the members =
the Fire Department and large cr0wd Of -
zens were on the spot, ready to render whaA -
sistance they could in recovering the bodiea e
the unfortunate men. The cistern had heam
dug to A deph Of about twenty two feet, 81
as twenty feet in width. Il was curhed VIII
two inch plank nearly the whole depth. On
ing to the amount of debris thrown toge4hU,
and the looseness OF the soil, nearly two housI
were spent in digging when the lifeless body q
Mr.. Kramer was reached and taken from III
ruins. It would seem that he had oommeneeln
his ascent up ladder, which was used for hit
purpose and which stood i, the cistern Al ~
| time, and was about half way up when tho -
cident occurred. His body was bruised M
crushed in shocking manner. Mr.. Sanfokh
body was not recovered until about s1vea
O'Clock in the evening, which was also hsnfza
that he had also reached tha ladder and asce11-
ed few steps following Kramer. The oaaD
Of the disaster was undoubtedly owing b ~
fact that 1t was nOtsuficiently braccd. As
Sanford's occupation was that of wef.- dIgenE.
| no one thought to question his judgment : -
his attention was called to it by q number q
people who thought il unsafe. Coroner W. i
vel dict was rendered in accordance with -
above. Mr.. Kramer leaves wife but no -

The editor of the Winona Herald
passed through term at the Normal

his paper. And now he wants other ed

institution.

GOOD NEWS.

We are glad to hear from Southern
Minnesota that MIR. Buell. will receive a
very large vote in that section; thous-
ands Of Republicans think it is time for
\ change. Buell. is helping the whole
Opposition ticket. while Gillman"s un-
popularity is weakening the Republican
ticket. We assure our friends that the
prospects never looked better for de-
cidea victory.

uNuIIERARlE DISGUST,

The Monte, Plow Works Of MioneapoIi..

This isone of the best of cur home industries.
We call attention to the advertisement of the
company in another column. Their works ara
just outside the city of Minneapolis, fronting

acres of land. The company employsa large
force and is selling their plows extensively
through Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa and Man

The New International Hotel.

Corner Jackson and Seventh streets, St. Paul.
is becoming favorite stopping place, and we
are not at all surprised, for it is one Of the very
best hotels in the city. Messrs. Stratton & Co.,
have had many years experience in thu hotel
business, both East and West, and never fail
to give satisfaction to their guests in every re-
spect. The house is new, as is all the furni-
ture and furnishings, and our only wonder is
that they csn afford to keep such a house a:
the low price Of So per day. No one who
stops once at this house will censure us for this
