Accident Alerted.

Thursday morning last. as Oscar
Rettig, young farmer who resides
about five miles south of this city, was
walking along the Northwestern rail
way track on his way to johnson
Greek to take the south bound pas
senger, which leaves here at 6:40 A. NJ,
for the jefferson fair, he discovered a
broken rail in the track The train
was nearly due, so he awaited it's
arrival at a proper distance from the
break and as it appeared in sight
tagged it. The signal OF danger was
noticed by the engineer and the train
brought to stop. The broken por-
ton Of the rail measured six feet and
had the train attempted to pass over
the defect it surely would have been
derailed, thus endangering the lives
Of all on board. The broken rail was
replaced in short order by the johnson
Creek section gang and the train con-
tinued on its journey. There were
about sixty passengers from this city
on board bound for the fair, and many
a grateful heart must have uttered
thanks and blessings for the young
man who had that morning averted
an accident which might have caused
painful injuries and possible death.

oreach OF Promise suit.

In it's circuit court proceedings The
Juneau Telephone says:
A case of unusual interest came up
next, the title being Augusta Dauffen-
bach VS.. Emil Klentz for breach of
promise. Both parties reside In Reese
vile and are connected with the best
known families there. M. l.. Lueck
represented the plaintiff and Malone
& Bachhuber the defendant. Miss
Dauffenbach, the plaintiff, handsome,
tall brunette, was the first witness
called. She testified that she had
known Mr.. Klentz four years and that
he had waited on her in 1895 and 1896.
That on December Is, 1895, they be-
came engaged to be married and had
fixed the date of the wedding in No
vember, 1896. That he continued to
call upon her about twice a week sub
sequent to the engagement and had
given her an engagement ring at
Christmas, 1895, (Which ring MIR.
Lueck offered in evidence) She fur
ther testified that in the fall of 1896
she began to make pre- para1ions fer
the wedding and had expended about
$40 for such purpose, with Mr. Klentz's
knowledge and assisted by him. She
said that on or about November /,
1896, Mr.. Klentz ceased to call upon
her without any cause. That they
had no trouble of any kind and that
she knew Of no reason for such conduct.
In addition, she said that on Nav 19.
1897, the defendant married another
lady. Mr.. Malone began the cross-exam-
lnatlon and when he asked her if this
broken engagement was not the result
of quarrel, Mr.. Lueck objected on
the grounds that no allegation of a
broken engagement was set up in the
answer to the complaint, the said an
sWer being denial Of any engagement
whatever, and that therefore it was
improper for Mr.. Malone to cross-ex-
anime the witness on something which
the answer absolutely denied as hav-
ing any existence. Mr.. Malone then
asked permission to amend his answer.
which the court granted, provided the
defense would pay the costs up to date.
Ibis was agreed to. the case was put
over until next term of court, and the
jury dismissed. The costs amounted
to about $40

for the Sausage Maker.

ing two hours this morning and then At
torney Vincent began the closing address
in behalf of the defendant. The main
point of his argument to-day was to
raise in the minds of the jury a doubt rs
to whether Mrs. Luetgert is really dead.
lie admitted that she had disap-
peared, but insisted that it had not been
shown beyond all doubt that she was
dead. Having spent much time in try
ing TO create the doubt, in the minds If
the jury, he insisted that there should
be no half way measure in the
verdict. If Luetgert was guilty of this
crime, he deserved all that the law could
mete out to him, but if he was not
guilty beyond all doubt he should he
set free. Mr.. Vincent insisted that the
case was not one for compromise we'd
diets. 1t would not do to sentence the
prisoner to the penitentiary because it
was just possible that the woman might
turn mp some day. If the jury believed
that there was any likelihood of her
turning up at any later day, it was their
business to acquit the prisoner now. Mr..
Vincent will speak all of tomorrow.
