Death Of Clarence Wood.

i X NAsSA SAA~'SS
The Sanborn Sun gives the follow
ing account Of the sad death Of little
Clarence Wood, who was killed at
Sanborn, Sept. %: The races at the
Bigelow Driving Park were brought
10 an abrupt close last Saturday by a
pitiful and terrible accident. The
trotting race which had been left un-
finished from the day before had just
been decided, and the horses for the
quarter mile running race were called.
There were five starters. Each little
rider, for they all were little fellows,
came up quickly and waited eagerly
for the word "go" for to win the race
was the one inspiration that possessed
each one. But one Of those little
hearts that beat in such high expec-
tation was destined soon to be stilled
in untimely death
The horses started in a bunch. The
distance was short and the riders rec
ognized that gain of foot might
win the race. The on-lookers watched
the horses as they came dashing
down the track when every one was
startled to see one of the riders fall
from his horse and all were petrifed
with horror when they saw that he
had caught his foot in the stirrup
and was being dragged along with
the horse at full speed. The horse
ran close to the fence so that the I'M
fortunate boy was dashed again and
again against the posts and the boards.
It was not until the horse had ran
fully 400 feet, that the leather straps
Of the stirrups gave away, releasing
the rider. The poor fellow was picked
up insensible and carried to the
judges stand where it was at once
pronounced by doctors present as in
jured beyond recovery. An examin-
alton showed that he had several ribs
fractured, his right arm broken above
the elbow besides having the spine
dislocated in the neck. He lived but
ten minutes after being picked up.
The boy was Clarence Wood, of
Worthington, Mimi, son of Frank
Wood, a liveryman at that place.
He had just passed his fourteenth
birthday, was lover of horses and
has been riding this same horse all
summer with the permission of his
parents. He was favorite with Mr..
Elliott, the owner of the horse Clar-
ence was riding, who could not have
been more stricken if the boy had
been his own son. Mr.. Bigelow an
nounced that owing to the accident
the races would be declared off and
his action was approved of by all
present.
The accident was entirely unfor-
seen and unavoidable, one that has
occurred, though rarely, on other race
courses. 1t seems that the horse had
been led onto the track by the gate
way situated at the beginning of the
home stretch. When he arrived at
this point he attempted to leave the
track in the same way he had come.
The bars had been put up and the
horse made an abrupt stop, pitching
the boy over his head. Nothing could
be done, for before anybody could
realize the situation all was over. It
only takes horse ten seconds to run
400 feet and during that time the &C.
cident happened. This sad death
has: cast a gloom over the town.
Those who witnessed the accident
will not soon forget it.

SchhOOl Notes.

The total enrolment for the month
is 1874. Rooms 6 and 9 have each
been perfect in attendance; the Ban,
ner for punctuality therefore falls tc
room 9, Miss Barry, teacher. The best
percentage of attendance occurred in
room 2, Miss Gaarder, teacher. The
attendance for this month is not quite
as large as was anticipated; many
were kept from school either by &C.
tual sickness or by quarantine. The
first Monday of the second month
quite number of these entered.
Work has begun under especially
favorable conditions. While a few
rooms are crowded, most rooms have
very reasonable enrollment--one
with which the teacher can work tC
advantage. Among the best school
men of our country it is considered> a
demonstrated fact that teacher can
not handle more than So 40 pupils
and give each as much individual
help as he needs. OF course the ex'
PLANTATION for the better conditions
this fall is found in the fact of one
additional teacher. The new room
No. 6, will follow the same lines Of
work that are carried on by the higher
class of No. 5, and the lower class Of
No. Z.
The school contributed 1913 and
several packages of clothing to the
fire suffers in the northeastern par
of our state-a good showing.

What came near being a very

the two year old daughter of Mr.. and

lost her balance and fell face down

burning her face and both arms

brought Mrs. Hedberg Immediately

could withstand the terrible suffer

The Hill anti-anarchist bill Is not being
disposed Of as easily as II was generally
SUI posed 1t would be by those who saw
how smoothly the measure went through
the Senate. There are those in the House
who declare themselves to be unalterably
opposed to the enactment OF such legislation.
and as there would be great difficulty in Sc
curing the attendance Of a quorum 1t Is not
improbable that action on the measure may
be deferred until next session. Opposition
to the bill so far Is based upon the belief Of
a few members that the bill proposes to
place the Indictment, trial and sentence of
anarchists or so-called anarchists in the
hands of administrative officers, and On in
watched with increasing alarm the steady
thrush of undesirable immigration this
measure appears to be much needed The
bill is not at all complicated in its con-
struction; 1t provides that no alien an
archist shall be permitted to land at any
port of the United States or admitted into
the United States. and 1t authorizes an ex-
listing board of the immigration bureau to
take all proper measures to prevent in
fractions of the law. Anarchists who are
within the country are not affected by the

asylum are very much interested and will
doubtless see to 1t that their privileges are

may easily accomplish for the present
through the activity of friends and sympa-
thizers.

The first Of September is not very far
away and on that day the life-saving sta
lions which dot our shores would ordinarily
be open for the transaction of business but.
acting under authority conferred by recent
legislation. the superintendent of that most
humane branch OF the government has or
dered these stations to open at once. That
peculiar mental phase known commonly as
Congressional economy has for years in
sisted that the nfe-saving service Is an
inexcusable luxury during the summer
months. assuming. probably. that in case
there should be shipwreck on the coasts
or the lakes there would always be an am
pie supply Of tourists and holiday seeking
people who could be depended upon to
man the boats and, with the assistance Of
fishermen. do all the rescuing that could be
expected OF the regular crew. Congress-
men who knew nothing whatever about the
necessities which so frequently come to
pass have insisted that there was really no
use for a life-saving service during a longer
annual period than eight months. but testi-
mony that could not be overcome showed
conclusively that May and August were
often quite as stormy as April and Sep
TENDER. so Congress added two months to
the schedule. There does not seem to be
any reason why provision should not have
been made for keeping the rfe-saving serv-
ice on duty all the year round No one.
not even a Congressman, knows what the
weather is going to be next June and July.
and 1t Is easily probable that during the
period of inactivity which the law insists
upon there might be many serious wrecks.
