crossing west of the city. Carter IN

desire to board there instead of at the
depot. He caught the last end of the
train. and stood on the coupler when
ordered off by the brakeman, being told
that it was contrary TO the rules to
take passengers at that point. Carter

catch the train at that place, but the
train man was obdurate, and after
some further parley, ordered Carter OFF
again. while the train was running at
a. high rate of speed. AS the brakeman
made a move to strike him with his
lantern, Carter jumped from the train,
and fell heavily to the ground Upon
regaining consciousness, he dragged
himself home, a distance of two miles,
and his injuries were attended to. HIS
left arm was broken below the elbow.

cut of three inches extends across the

Evergreen lodge, No. ISL, F. U. A,
held a profitable meeting last Monday
night. The attendance was above the
average and several applications for
membership were received. Two were
initiated in the mysteries of the Fra
ternar union. Tonight bids fair to be
good meeting, as many matters will
come up that interest the fraterS. A
week from tonight patriotic sociar'
will be held, TO which all friends of
the order are cordially invited.
Fraternity was the first law of char
ity when she came from heaven, and
the Fraternal Union of America is an
able representative of true fraternity.
Selfishness and greed disappeared when
fraternity was placed before man and
woman. Insurance is one of the high
est aims of fraternity, providing, as it
does, absolute protection for the fam
lily. What blessed thought to the
dying father of a family that he knows
that his beloved ones are cared for and
protected by the strong arm of frater
nifty. They will not suffer when he is
gone, because he has mad foreIhought
to insure his life in a strong associa-
ton that gives protection to his bene-
ficiaries.
