Herman Lund Dead.
Bismarck Tribune Feb. ls.

Herman :Lund, the unfortunate young
man who met with an accident on the
road from Velva to Coal Harbor two
weeks ago, and lay out on the prairie for
sixty hours befOle rescued, died at the
hospital at O'Clock last evening of sec
ondar> shock, after an operation for the
'emoval of the right leg, which was am
putated just below the hip, Lund rallied
from the operation and came out from
the influence of the anaestic favorably.
but two hours afterward succumbed to a
secondary shock. At shortly before S
O'Clock he began to- sink. and although
everything possible was done for him
he died at shortly after 8.
The case of Lund was one of the sad
dest that has come to the attention of the
hospital authorities or physicians for
some time and the particulars of the &C
cident we're recounted at the time of the
accident. He fell under a wagon while
freighting to Coal Harbor, and his right
leg was broken. Helpless and unable to
move he lay there from Saturday night
until Tuesday morning before he was
found. The weather was cold, and aside
from the injury to his leg, both legs and
arms we're frozen so badly that amputa-
ton was the only possible hope of saving
his life.
The first opperation was performed
about a week ago, when the left leg was
taken off just above the knee. and the
right arm.about two inchhes above the
first operation was such that it was ne
cessary to delay the second until the pa
tient had recovered in measure, and
Lund rallied we'll from the first operation
and was anxious for the secoud. desiring
last week chat the second operation be
performed. Yesterday the second opera
tion was performed, Drs. Harcourt, Bal
lard, Stark and Goeschel amputating the
limb. The operation was quickly and
successfully performed, but the secondary
shock was too great for the patient to
withstand.
: The long suffering and ex posure of the
patient prior to his receiving medical at
tendence, the freezing of all extremities,
and the consequent weakened condition
of the whole svetem has rendered the re-
covery OF Lund very doubtful from the
fret. owing to the number of amputa-
tiona that we're necessary to give him a
chance for life. Had he lived, it would
have been necessary to take of the left
hond also, 80 that the unfortunate man
wonId have been practically, helpless as
long as he had lived.
Tho father and brother of the young
mar were with him at the time of his
desth. and the father will drive with the
romains to Eureka, 8. D., distance OF
f01 miles. where they will be buried. The
dece ased young man was 28 years of age
and has several brothers who have u ranch
north of Wsshburn. He was bright
and energetic young man, and during hi
snNering has been brave, courageous an,

Yuma Seniinel A tragedy occurred at Hedges sunday afternoon resulting in the death of cnlored man named Lee and the serious wOunding of Salo- r.on Gonzales, Mexican miner Qua dalupe R0sales. a troublesome char acter, well Known in Yuma as the bull lighter, asked Gonzales, Co whom he was stranger, to lend him dol lar. Gonzales said he had no money to throw away on people he did not know, and turned to walk away. The bull fighter became enraged at the cool treatment and drawing a razor slashed Gonzales down the back, cut ting a gash several inches iong clear tu the bone Rnsales then ran. pur- sued by number of the wounded mans friends The cnored man Lee was first to give chase and had gained quite a start before the balance of the crowd had secured arms. He was mistaken for the bull lighter by one of the crowd and ordered to halt. Thinking the command could not mean him the colored man kept on in hot pursuit after the real perpetrator of the crime Two shots were fired aud Lee fell mortally wounded. When the mistake was discovered he was taken back to camp and cared for, but only lived A few hours. ROsales was captured later and taken to San Diego to await the action or the grand jury.

Important happenings, national
and International, have fairly tum-
bled over each other this week. The
week was opened with the selection OF
a. well known bimetallist to take the
place of more widely known advo-
cate of the single gold standard as
director of the u S. mint and by the
sending OF o. S. battleship to Ha-
yana. This was followed by the de-
claration Of Secretary Gage that the
President stood squarely upon the
bimetallic plank of the St Louis
platform and that he was earnestly
supported by every member of his
cabinet. The silver men say these
things have been brought about by
the Teller resolution, declaring bonds
payable in silver at the option of
the government, the adoption OF
which by the senate has shown the
imppssibility of gold standard legis-
Iation by this congress, which is, of
course, denied by the administration
men, who say that they are merely
the result of the determination OF
the administration not to be mis-
represented. You will doubtless. hear
arguments enough from both points
of view as soon as the Congress 10 nal
