A Sad Accident.

One of those inexplicable accidents
that startle the community and throw
a mantle of sorrow over the hearts of
many families, occurred in this village
ON Tuesday evening last. A young
lad, by the name of Johnnie Cameron,
about nine years of age, son of Mr..
Cameron who is employed as cooper
at the Junction Mill, while crossing
the South Fork bridge by some means,
the cause of which is not known,
either slipped under the railing or fell
over it and was precipitated to the ice
below, distance of about thirty feet.
The poor little fellow was instantly
killed by the fall, his skull being
crushed. 1t seems that the boy and
his sister had crossed the bridge at an
earlier hour on visit to some friends
of the family across the river and on
his return at about nine O'Clock the
accident occurred. So far as we can
learn no blame is attached to any one.
The railing has always been regarded
as safe, and is not broken in any way,
and it would have seemed difficult for
any one either to fall under it or to
have slipped i'll such manner as to
90 over it.

as the particulars are told us, with a man
named Jim McCue, when the latter knocked
Flick down and commenced pounding him
on the head with glass tumbler. Flick
then drew revolver and shot McCue
twice. one shot taking effect in the arm, and
the other passing almost through his body.
The wounded man and the shootist were
taken TO Winona. Whiskey was the cause. )"

COMMUNICATION.

1t is said that $4,000 people die an
nually in the United States alone from
this disease. In some sections of the
country one death in every three is
from Consumption. This can be, and
should be avoided; our people are too
careless about an ordinary cough or
cold, and other symptoms of throat
and lung affections that lead to this
disease. You should arrest it while
it is in the germ. Two or three doses
of DIR. Bosanko's Cough and Lung Syr-
up will relieve an ordinary cough or
cold. 1t does not dry up cough like
many preparations on the market and
leave the disease behind it, but acts
directly on the throat and bronchial
tubes, removing all the phlegm and
morbid matter that accumulates in
the throat and lungs. 1t allays all IL
ritation, and renders the voice clear
and distinct. Sold by R. S. Freeman.

DIED.

CAMERON. At River Falls, Jan. 10th, 1888, OF
instantly fatal accident, Johnnie Cameron,
aged years and ii months.
Little Johnnie was born in Wales, thence
removed to Scotland, and thence to Wiscon-
SIN three years ago last August. Two years
ago he commenced his school life under
Miss Hawkins, and has remained under her
until his death. Here, although stranger
and foreigner, he was welcomed to circle
OF sympathy and friendship. His teacher
speaks of him, and his classmates remember
HIM, as a bright, good boy. Leaving the
flash OF his sparkling eyes, and the echo OF
his merry laugh behind him, without mo :
ment OF languishing and suffering, he lost
the blessings and escaped the burdens OF
earth. ..

its virtue for that cough OF yours, or for any
of the ills which require an invigorant for

Railroad ACCidoHt.

The past week has been prolific of
accidents owing largely to the heavy
falls of snow and subsequent drifting.
The first serious accident occurred on
Friday evening of last week near
GloYer's Station. The River Falls
train had left Hudson at a late hour
without snow plow and soon after
passing the warehouse at the station
ran into snow drift which had been
piled up by tue wind on one side of
the track. 1t would seem that this
crowded the engine over onto the OPP
posite rail with such force as to tear
up the rail and throw the engine from
the track. The engingeer. Mr.. Lar
son, finding that the engine must go
into the ditch jumped from the cab
window to save himself, but fell Sc
verely upon tbs ground and was proba-
bly, struck by some fragment of a box
car next to the engine. The nature
of his injuries are yet uncertain, as
they are largely internal, but hopes
are entertained of his recovery. All
of the train except the passenger
coaches left the track and part of the
cars were overturned. The wreck
was cleared on Monday and traffic
resumed.
An engine was sent out on Monday
to clear the track of snow, and after
several slight mishaps was derailed
at the culvert in the Walden field and
broke through the bridge. 1t was
then taken back to Hudson and an
other engine sent back the next day
which succeeded in getting through
on Tuesday without much difficulty.

constructed to clear the snow from the

snow where it had become packed. it
served a good purpose in many places

There is evidently too large a sup
ply of dime novels and yellow covered
literature in the town of Troy, if we
may judge by results. Several boys
of that town. making visit to the
wrecked train lying at Glover's sta
ton found an entrance to the express
car and broke open case of mixed
candies and helped themselves, even
going so far as to take their plumber
down to the school-house. The teacher
ordered them to return the plumber,
but it seems some at least failed to do
so, and the r. r. Company is out a
considerable amount of mixed candy.
As it was probably an act of thought
lessness on the part of most of the
boys at least it is to be hoped that the
company will make a mild settlement
in regard to the matter, but the boys
should learn that such an offense might
put the ringleaders i'll the Reform
School at least.
