BLooDSHED POSSIBLE.

Serious Trouble Expected at St. Cloud.
DIspatchors Join the Strikers.
ST. CLouD, MINI, April l7.-Excite-
ment is growing rapidly, as is also the
American railway union membership.
Contrary to expectation the train from
the west at $3.50 this afternoon was sent
cut by the strikers, but, under protec-
tion, the brakemen promptly re.coupled
tho cars and the train went through the
yards without further disturbance.
This experience, however, made
the strikers very bitter and
they decided not TO let it occur
again, 30 that whom tho Willmar traia
arrived from St. Paul at 6:4O tonight,
the strikers made no attempt TO touch
it at the depot. but after it started
away switch was turned and the train
run on n siding already occupied by
some box cars, narrowly escaping a COL
lision. The strikers then broke the
train up and scattered the cars around
the yards, tho passengers being re-
turned to the station. Tho mail and
baggage cars were untouched.
Tho dispatchers in the Office here
have joined the strike. It is reported
that the engineers, fremen and con-
ductors will also 70 out. Another 70.
port says government protection will be
placed on the night train. There is
some littlo talk OF the possibility OF
bloodsled.

children's day was observed. The plat
form, railing and pulpit were trimmed with
green wreaths and flowers. Rev. j. F.
Leland gave brief address on, "Bad
People in the Bible" He gave
illustrations Of how people mentioned
in the Bible did wrong and had to suffer
for it. He spoke of Cain, his jealousy,
and of how at last he became q murderer.
Aaron was mentioned and the speaker
told of his proving faithless to the trust
Moses granted him. The story of Absalem
was also dwelt upon. These illustrations
were made as object lessons and the idea
presented and brought out was that all
things that would tend to lead to any bad
traits of character. such a. these, persons
possessed, should be carefully avoided.
