PITIFUL ACCIDENT.

The Elder Pease Has an Arm Ba,ly
Broken.
A pitiful accident was the one that
happened to the father of Commits
sioner-elect Pease, of Kintire town
ship, about ten o'clock on the morn
ing of Nov. 23d. The Pease Bros
thresbing outfit was at Ed. Pease's
house, threshing the last setting of the
season. The machine was being pro-
PEELED by steam and the Elder Pease
was engaged in placing the belt on
the leader shaft that runs to the grain
augur. By some unknown manner
the NIT on the left hand got caught
on the set screw of the shaft and be-
fore Mr.. Pease could release himself
he was jerked into the air about two
feet and up as far as the belt running
to the straw carrier would allow. His
left arm was wound around the shaft.
and caused SO great tension that the
belt running the shaft ran off from

UNDER new MANAGEMENT.
The Francois and Commercial Com
mence Business Anew.
S. A. Mentean, a Modern Boniface,
in Charge Of the Francois.

Hotel Francois and the Commercial
are now openss to the public under
separate and distinct arrangements,
and the managers claim for each no.
tel just as much traffic as the two
when under the combined manage
ment of Col. Wright
Mr.. G. A. Francois, to representa-
tive of this paper, stated last week,
and his words were published, that he
probably would not open his hostelry
until Jan. l, 1898, owing to the diff
Guilty in obtaining the help essential
to conducting a first-class hotel. The
gentleman realized, however, the loss
that his hotel would suffer under the
80 days close, and last week when Mr..
S. A. Mentean offered to manage the
same and have it opened not later
than last Tuesday, of course, Mr..
Francois jumped quickly at the prop
osition.
And the probabilities are that Mr..
Francois made no mistake in his man.
Mr.. Mentean was partially born and
raised in a hotel. Several years ago
he was managing the Brunswick in
Minneapolis and about two years ago
he was made chief clerk at the now
famous Salspaugh, Mankato A
month or two since Mr.. Mentean. a
little weary of hotel life, became the
travelling agent Of Geo. r. Newell &
Co., but this, he soon learned, was not
what it was cracked up to be, and he
returned to the Salspaugh for three
weeks and then, hearing of the hotel
turmoil in this city, came here and
was made manager of the Francois,
which was opened to the public last
Tuesday. The hotel has undergone
thorough renovation during the last
week, and the handsome rooms look
as handsome as ever. The culinary
department., Mr.. Mentean declares,
will equal if not excel, any of the no
tells in the larger cities.
The Commercial House, under the
experienced mine host S. E. Bailey,
we'll known to the travelling public,
has also undergone a change and Mr.
Bailey declares that it will be second
to none. He will be assisted by Harry
behind the counter and Mrs. Bailey
of course, will superintend the house
keeping work.
COL and Mrs. Wright have, or will
soon return to Minneapolis. They
were both GENIAL and clever persons
Col. Wright suffered from i'll health
and upon Mrs. Wright deyolved a
large share of the responsibility,
which she accepted with feminine
grace. Their future is not yet known.
Co.. Wright may spendathe winter in
the South.

the pulley and suspended, in part, OPP

arm was broken in several places
above the wrist, and in one place SO
badly that the bone protruded through
the flesh for several inches. The old
gentleman was taken into the commits
sioner's residence and DR.. Film,
called. The arm was set, and two
days later Mr.. Pease was removed r.

is now doing nicely.
Had the belt insisted on doing its
duty the accident would have been
thrice more horrible. Ed. Pease stood
by the side of his father when the ac-
cident occurred and was SO appalled,
that he could not utter word or
hardly make motion.
