to use on his proposed cable line, for
which he was not granted q franchise.
1t is intended that commencing to-mor-
row the cars will be run as far as the
railroad track, until the line is extended
further or completed. The street car
officials are amused at an article in the
last Democrat which characterized the &C.
ton of the company in taking up the
branch track, as an outrage, on account
of alleged bad faith with subscribers for
tickets. In view of the fact that the ed
itor of the Democrat subscribed for So
worth of tickets and during the two
years has only taken 81 worth, the
smiles of the street car men are easily
explained.

me, seized me by the shoulders, and
throwing me down took one of his slip,
pers and struck me repeatedly over the
head with the heel. On another occa-
sion l was sitting upright in a chair,
clad in my straight jacket, when a man
whom l did not know entered the room,
and thinking would have a little chat
with him, L went forward and held out
my hand. The stranger then seized me,

the keepers, they choked me into insen-

1t is not, as all know. Do not let an

FATAL RUNAWAY.
One of Lees Bus Teams Runs Away and
a Lady Passenger Meets Instant Death.
A Terrible Accident.

One of Lees bus teams was standin,
at the st. Louis depot as the 2:30 traiI
arrived Tuesday afternoon. While tn,
driver was looking for other passenger
q lady about % years of age and fairly
well dressed stepped into the bus. The
team which had appeared to be restless
seem to have been frightened bv the
noise of the engine and starting up sud.
denly broke the halter strap which was
fastened to a weight and thus being freed
the horses ran at fast speed toward
Front street. When about half way to
that street the lady, who was the only
occupant of the bus, evidentley became
frightened and attempted to step out
out backwards, which resulted in her
being thrown to the ground with great
violence. The unfortunate woman struck
on the back of her head and was killed
almost instantly, the neck being broken.
Those about the depot fastened to pick
her up and she was taken to the plat
form until physician arrived, but was
past all human aid. Later, the body was
taken to the house of VIM. Krummel a
block from the depot, and afterwards
taken to Jno. Klein's undertaking room,
where the inquest was held Wednesday
morning.
No one could be found in the city to
identify the lady, and the only clue af-
forded was a package of magazines bear
ing the inscription, MRS. Mary Sheers,
Faribault, Mimi" 1t was also ascer-
tanned that her baggage was checked to
Sibley, Iowa. Acting upon these prem
Uses, the authorities opened Geographic
communication with Sibley and Fari-
bault, which soon developed the fact
that the lady was Miss Theresa Burke, a
school teacher from Sibley, who had
been visiting her sister, Mrs. Sheers, at
Faribault, and was on her way
back TO Iowa. Her friends from Fari- |
bault will be here tomorrow morn
ing, and after the inquest the body will
doubtless be taken to Sibley for burial.
The accident is a terrible one, and
,aused much excitement in the city,
.hough the feeling would doubtless have
been greater had the victim been one
in the city.
The horses after being relieved of
heir passenger turned up Front street,
md tore along at : fearful rate, but for
reached the barn on Cherry
treet without doing further damage.

Have you ever ridden along the shore
of beautiful Lake Pepin, in a moonlight
night? If you have, you can realize the
full meaning of the stanza above. II
you have not made the trip, you should
embrace the first opportunity to view
the enchanting scene, by purchasing Q
ticket on "The Burlington's" vestibuled
train either north or south, and gliding
swiftly and smoothly along the beach,
within sight and hearing of the soft rip
pie of the waves. Minnesota, within q
few miles of either st. Paul or Minneap-

The policy of the various township
boards of health is to appoint meat in
spectors in all parts Of the towns, In Or
der to save mileage for those living in re-
mote parts. Beauford has 9 inspectors,
LeRav Is. Decoria H. Sterling7. In
some respects this is an advantage, but
cannot but aid those desir us of evading
the law, as almost every farmer must be
personal friend of one of the inspect
ors, and could therefore claim favor in
inspecting cattle. This is not likely to
be very unanimously done, but the
will be great.

THANKS THE DEPARTMENT,

The following letter from the Linseed
Oil Co., to Geo. Phillips, Chief of the
Fire Department, explains itself:
MANKATo, MINI, July 2, 1889.
Geo. Phillips, ESQ.,,
Chief of the Fire Department, city.
DEAR SIR: Our fire of June 10th
would have been much more extensive
and our loss much greater had it not
been for the prompt and effective work
of the four volunteer fire companies un-
der your charge. We think the fire
was handled as we'll as il could have
been. We wish you to express our
thanks to the members of our depart
ment and to hand to the Treasurer of
each company an equal share of the en-
closed check, 500.
Respectfully,
q. +. PIPER, Treas.
While the compliment to the depart
ment is just and we'll earned, the action
of the .Linseed OIL Co. in the premises is
certainly most creditable and gener-
Gus one, and well shows the liberal spir-
it of its officers. The fire boys desire us
in this connection to convey to Mr..
Piper and his associates their most
hearty thanks for the donation as we'll
as other favors.

The Need of Recreation.

Gall work and no play makes Jack q
dull boy" 1t is a homely saying, but
trite. To enjoy healthful longevity q man
must get away from the shop now and

outing or 80, away from business cares
or city turmoil, will often work wonders.
There are plenty of places to 60 at q
small cost. Go to the lakes, to the
Dalles of the st, Louis, or to White Bear
Lake, which may be reached from 4 al
