Under the Street Cars.

The first accident Of any consequence
which has occurred from the street
cars, took place at the Nettleton ave-
nue. crossing about noon on Wednes-
day, when little Byron, the five-year-
OLD son of Mrs. Frink, of Central Park.
was caught by passing car and came
near losing his life. He in company
with a boy named Cranton were on the
track hanging onto a car and when
the conductor warned them off the
little Frink boy jumped to one side
and onto the other track just in time
to get caught by a car going in the op-
posite direction. He was rolled and
tumbled about good deal, but the
guards held him SO that the wheels did
not pass oyer him. Drs. Sherwood and
Spencer attended the little fellow and
found that he was injured somewhat
internally, out to just what extent had
not been determined at last accounts,
besides which he received an ugly flesh
wound over one eve and several minor
cuts and bruises 1t is a wonder he
was not k He'd outright. Some harsh
measure Will vet have to be adopted to
make the boys keep off the tracks and
away from the street ears. No blame
can attach to the car men in this in
stance.

A Relic Of Vlcksburg.

Through the courtesy of Mr.. r. A.
Ryder, of Duluth, we are permitted to
peruse copy OF the "Vicksburg Daily
Citizen" printed July 4, 1868. 1t Is
printed on piece of wall paper l0xls
inches in size. The type was all set
up ready for printing by the rebel
proprietor, J. NJ. Swords, for his issue
of July 2, but Grants racket outside
the city walls gave the printer boys
holiday, and the sheet was not issued.
When General Grant and his union
boys entered the city on the morning
of the 4th of July, the form was found
in the Citizen Office intact, and by per-
mission of General Grant a stickful Of
'uniOn matter" was added to the foot
of the last column announcing the
victory of the union arms, and the
matter printed just as found. The
relic has been we'll preserved, and we
will take the liberty to copy some of
its items. One Item very much to the

Another Land Contest.

The struggle to determine who owns
certain lands on Cunn0r's Point has
begun. Some Of this land has been in
dispute for a good while but no legal
steps have been reSorted to to remove
the SQuatter occupants OF the same,
until now The Leader of Tuesday
says:
Papers are being served in ejectment
suits against all OF the Conhor's Point
squatters on lots /, ,, 3, +, ), 6 and :
and portions s and 8, by Knowles,
Dickinson, Buchanan, Graham 4
Wilson, for Mary f. Hayes, l.. f.
Johnston, Judge Scion H. Ciough, w
V. Hoge, James Bardon, the William
Chandler estate, Cycler Adams and
William w. Townsend, the plant ifs,
and parties who claim to own the fee
to the land.
The plaintiffs claim n record title
and the suits are the elimination of a
long standing quarrel with the squat
ter residents of the disputed lands and
will be the test cases in litigation in
volving more than 1000 persons and
their homes on Connor's Point.
Attorney George Z. Knowles said:
Considerable time has been spent in
examining these titles and in each case
a clear legal title is shown on the re-
cord to be in the parties bringing the
suit. 1t cannot be ascertained from
the record on what the sluatters base
their claims.
The squatters are determined to
fight their case and have organized Il
secret society, incorporated as bene-
VIOLENT association, for the purpose of
collecting funds to oppose any and all
atter...,t of the owners to recover for
their lands.
The papers in the suit Of Lemando
F. Johnston against the squatters on
lot l are made out against 81 defend
ants, and the total number OF defend
ants will reach over 800, includidg
every head of a house resident within
the disputed districts.
The plaintiff in the Johnston suit
claims 5000 damages for the unlaw-
full withholding of the property since
March II, 1887, and $4,000 for rents
and profits and the costs of the action.
