Wi11fnar vs.. MonteVide0.

In the ball games Monday and
Tuesday the Montevideo club proved
an easy mark for the Willmar irwin
cibles. The following results tell the
tale: Monday, II to 2; Tuesday, 9 to
4. The first days game was such a
walkaway for our boys that very lit
tie effort was required, consequently
it was not as interesting as it might
have been. Montevideo's additional
support. Cox and Severens, failed to
materialize, else there might have
been close contest. On Tuesday
those in attendance were treated to a
better game, owing to the fact that
Montevideo was ably supported by
Eddie Burke, of the Cincinnati league
team, and Brown, an ex-league play
er. Cook pitched for Willmar in
Mondays game, while Thielman
tossed the ball yesterday.
The management of the home team
feel that it is hardly fair to go to such
expense in securing good games here
as they have been doing, when the
crowds which attend fall far below the
average. They do not receive the
proper support and encouragement.

A SAD ACCIDENT,
Fireman Herman Brem VERY
Seriously Injured.

Yesterday afternoon at about lis
O'Clock an accident befel Herman
Brem which is likely to result in his
death. Engine No. 80 had just pulle<
in an extra freight from the Sioux
Falls line, with Engineer Roberts at
the throttle and Brem as fireman.
They were on their way to the coal
shed to take on coal, but when they
arrived the fireman was missing. AS
there was an extra man on board, A.
K. Omlie, nothing was thought of the
absence of the fireman at the time, it
being supposed that he had jumped
of. On the return, however, the crew
was Mortified to find the body of Brem
lying near the track. He was picked
up in an unconscious condition, and
upon examinin alton it was found that
the skull was fractured and several
pieces of bone were impressed upon
the brain. DR.. Frost was summoned
and the young man was taken to his
parents home, where the surgical
work was done and all possible as
sistance rendered.
Just how the accident occurred is
not known. but it is supposed that he
was holding himself in readiness to
take on coal, and when last seen was
on top of the cab. He undoubtedly
fell off. strikinp his head AGAINST some
hard object with terrific force.
At this writing Tuesday evening he
is still unconscious and the gravest
fears are entertained for his recovery
Herman is the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Jacob Brem, of the Deutsche restaur-
ant. His pleasant dispositionhas won
him many friends, and he has always
been a favorite with his companions.
