young man walked into the Southern
Pacific passenger depot early this morning
with his left arm hanging to his shoulder
by shred of flesh. He explained that he
was stealing ride on the brakebeam OF
the Oregon express, and when the train
got within few blocks of the depot he
slipped and fell, the wheels passing over his
arm below the shoulder.
The young man was taken to the County
Hospital, where the arm was cut off. He

SACRAMENTO, CAL, June 25.-G. II.
Appel agent for the California Transports
tion Company, said to-day that the com
pany was perfecting arrangements to be-
gin shipping fresh fruit from here to Lon
don about July 1. Reports from London,
he says, are favorable to the enterprise
and the prospect is excellent for good
prices.
Shipments up to date this season are
hardly one-third those of last year. The
crops are light, as well as late, and Gamers
and home dealers are out among the
orchards buying freely. II the growers dc
not make big sales this season they are
at least sure to get good prices.

men matched in weight and strength.
Never for a moment did the little
athlete in the lead let up on the kill
ing pace. and every one of the six
behind him, running in pairs side by
side, was determined that he would go
the gait, be it ever so fast.
When the snubbing post was reach
ed, fifty years from the start. Vol
Mead made clean, strong turn and
the hose ratified off the reel at rate
that threatened to break the. coupling
Everything held, however, and the
moment the brass joint struck the
ground Kelly was onto it. One
swing, of the hand and the coupling
was broken. then the waiting at
tendant pushed forward the pipe,
another swing of the hand, lightning
twist and-'time' sang out the pant
ing coupler.
Everybody knew, by the actions of
the judges no less than by the swift
ness and cleanliness of the work, that
the winners stood before them, but
no one outside the judges stand ex-
pected that the best time OF the other
teams was beaten by seconds. Then
came the announcement 'Luverne's
time, 26 3-5 seconds" and there was
repetition on grander scale of the
ovation that greeted their time of the
day previous, when they equaled end
surpassed worlds, record.
While Luverne won nearly every
thing ia sight, none of the, other teams
had any reason to feel ashamed of the
records they made Under ordinary
conditions Worthington might have
captured the cart for good, but such g
team as Luverne sent after the coveted
trophy this year could not be beaten.
If they can hold together they should
be- able to retain the prize for keeps.

Fourth, the whole town was waiting
at the depot to welcome them. The
band played, fireworks. were, set OF,
and even church 0eacons shouted for
the victors. A procession was formed
and, in the post CT honor, was the cap
tured cart, pulled by two sturdy mem
bers of the city council, Messrs. Rogers
and Heinz. Behind, on an improvised
chariot, also pulled by citizens, sat the
members of the running team, and
torch-bearers escorted them ON either
side.
The church bells were rung, all the
electric lights were turned on. and the
procession moved through the main
street amid a blaze of light. At the
central square Hon. E. H. Garfield eX-
tended the congratulations of the city
to her victorious representatives, and
paid them high tribute for their

swiftness and skill received proper

Luverne, should gain credit not only
for champion crops, but for champion

Then the prize they had trained and
struggled for so successfully was care
fully slowed away in the handsome
and solid fire hall, and the tired champ

dream of the time when, as they hope,
the trophy will have been won for the

UsURpATIoN OF POWER.
Mayor Smith Gives Pointers to a
Council COMMITTEES.

Mayor Smith takes exception to the
attitude assumed by the assembly COM
mittee on ways and means with refer
ence to the approval of the bonds of
contractors. The committee gave it
out at its meeting Friday afternoon
that hereafter it would subject all these
bonds to the closest scrutiny and if they
were found defective in form, or other
wise insufficient by reason of the ire
sponsibility of either surety or the fail
ure of either surety to qualify they
would reject them. Acting upon this
principle, the committee rejected the
bond of Sherwood. Sutherland & Co.,
the lowest bidder in response to the ad-
vertisement calling for bids for repair
ing the Mississippi river bridge. The
committee found that one of the sure
ties, a man of excellent financial stand
ing, had failed to justify Speaking of
the position taken by the committe,
with regard to the contractors bond
Mayor Smith said:
The committee on ways and means
has absolutely nothing to do with con-
tractors bonds. The law says that the
mayor and corporation attorney shall
pass upon these bonds, the corporation
attorney upon their legal form, and the
mayor upon the responsibility of the
sureties. Formerly the law required
the judges of the district court to ap-
prove the bonds. But in any event the
committee on ways and means has no

will be realized further along.

Minnesota and Iowa firemen living
in towns adjacent to the state line
have for number of years main
tanned an organization known as the
Interstate F'iremen's association.
Every year a tournament is held in
one of the towns represented in the
association. Money prizes are Of
fered for contests of speed and skill,
and besides the coin there are tro-
phies to be won which the fire lad
dies value far and away beyond
the filthy lucre.
The fixed events of the annual
tournament are:
Hose race, 2O0 yards, lay $50 feet OF
hose, break and attach pipe leach three
full turris); cart to weigh not less than
425 pounds. Purse, $3.50, divided.
Coupling contest. Purse, SIS, divided.
Hook and ladder race, 200 yards, for
championship banner.
Hose race, 200 yards, for champion
ship cart.
Hook and ladder race, 200 yards.
Purse. $50.
Ladder climbing contest. Purse, $50,
divided.
straightaway race, 200 yards Purse,
$50, divided
Chiefs and assistant chiefs foot race.
Naturally the great prize of the
tournament is the hose cart, which
represents the championship. In 1888
the Worthington team captured the
cart, and in 1894 they repeated the vic
tory. Could they have won it this
year, the cart would become the prop
erty of the Worthington department,
one provision of the rules being that
, the cart must be won three times in
succession before it can be permanent
, ly retained by any team. Worthing-
: tons representatives have been train
ing and practicing almost since the day
of the "a contest, and the citizens of
! the town have most heartily backed
| them up. AS an additional incentive

Side.
The Northwestern Sanitation COM
pany is now fully equipped to gather
and dispose of the night soil of the
city, and will commence business Mon
day morning. The Artesian we'll driven
at their plant has shown under the
most severe test a flow of about seven
hundred gallons per minute. This
volume of water flushes sewer run
ming from the plant into the river,
through which the noXious matter is
to be driven and liquified, thereby
rendering it inoffensive to the people
of the city and in no manner impeding
navigation or seriously polluting the
river.
Health Commissioner Stone notified
the Sanitation company yesterday
that if they would extend the sewer
pipe to the channel of the river, that
he would grant the company a permit
to begin work on Monday. DR.. Stone
also announced that he would grant
permits to any persons who could
satisfy him that they were able to do
the work. AS to the capacity of the
Artesian well of the Northwestern
Sanitation company, the tests of the
government engineer showed at one
time 1856 gallons minute and another
test showed 6S1 gallons. When the
| city engineer made the test the dis
charge was only.437 gallons a minute.

When the first team was called out
to run On the afternoon of July it was
for a purse of $50. OF this amount,
SIS wentsto first, $50 to second, $25 to
third. Worthington covered the 2G0
yards and made the coupling in q 2-5
seconds, Pipestone followed with a rec
ord of 81 As, and then Luverne went
to the mark. 1
Such burst of speed as they exhiIl
tied, made eoHcertedly by severEsmeH

months of faithful training was ap-
parent in the spring and force with
which they shot away from the mark;
and in the. untiring vim and stamina
with which they raced along at a pace
that would have killed any one but
trained sprinter. Each man of the
seven realized that the Worthington
racers had gone gait that was almost
UP to the record. The memory of de-
feat in previous years ranked in~theii
breasts. Twas race for pride more
than for money, for sweet revenge
rather than for a record-a race in
short, such as men seldom find inspir-
alton to make. And when they had
made it. and Kelly had broken the
coupling and made new one with mo-
tons quicker than the eye could follow,
there was a period of intense anxiety
AstoniShment was apparent in the
judges box and a careful comparison of
watches. AT last the announcement
was made, ''Luverne, rs Is seconds"

The mayor also criticised the commit

the city, whereby it refuses to recon-
mend a settlement. The former prac-
tice has besn to recommend settlements
upon the advice of the corporation at

no recommendations for settlement
have been received from the legal de-
partment and the committee submits
an adverse report, which results in the
