The largest verdict but one ever re-
&urned in the court in person
al injury damage suit, was that found
by the jury last Saturday evening in
fhe case of E. E. Slonikcr against the
Great Northern. This is the suit OF
which mention was made last week, in
which Sloniker, brakeman in the em-
ploy OF the company and living at
Melrose, sued the railroad for $25, 900
damages for injuries sustained by his
ssiAyear-old daughter Bertha, in be-
ing run down in the Melrose yards
,laast February by handcar operated
by section crew. The jury found a
verdict for the plaintiff after being out
a comparatively short time for 81, 900.
The evidence was that the little girl,
Wl9h others of her age, was on her way
home from school on the day in ques-
zion, and that they were travelling a
path which ran across the railroad
yards, and which was very frequently
alsed by the school children. 1t is
sclaimed that no effort was really made
fby the crew of the handcar to stop it
alntil the child was actually struck
The car was running about Is miles
IAN hour. Of course the supposition
as that the members of the crew thought
che child would get off the track,
(which is perfectly straight at this
point.-Journal Press.

The Alumni Association.

The annual meeting of the Alumni
of the Sank Centre High School on
Tuesday evening was a thoroughly en-
Joy able event. There were nearly one
hundred present, including members
of the association and invited guests.
The Odd Fellows hall was utilized for
the occasion and it is admirably
adapted to the purpose.
1t was a brilliant assemblage of
young people, with just few elders.
that witness I'd the cermoniaf of initi-
ating the graduates into the associa-
ton. and it was very interesting
ceremony. The class was snbjeced to
vigorous and Sc ,rchi ng examina-

very creditably considering the mem
tai strain imposed. Of course, they
didn't answer the questions PROFOUND
ed-and it was not intended that they
should. Most of them were not ans
werable. The following officers were
installed by Installing Officer White

President Miss Josie Scherfius.
Secretary--Miss Una Robbins.
Treasurer-August Dahlem.
The retiring president, A. Barto,
as master of ceremonies, acquitted
himself admirably giving very fine
edge to the entire program, saying the
right word and doing the right thing
at just the right time.
A banquet in tine basement DINING

features of the evening. A very
sumptuous and delicate repast.was dis
posed of amid wild cheers, good ma
tnred .jeers and class yells all add

the tables.
Supper ended, Miss Pauline Dahlem
gave an admirable address of well
! comes cordial and witty and bristling
with little sharp points, which were
keenly app eciated. It was a gem.
Rudolph Hansen responded in tell
ing little response which was very
pleasant and happy. Chas. F. Hendryx
made a brief address, closing the ex-
ercises.
After social hour, the association
adjourned about midnight, scoring a
complete success.
