!. FELL FROM y MOVING TRAIN.
John Pdsgharr Found in 1 Dsmsnted Con-
dition Two Miles South Of City a !.
s }"'% Thursday Morning. f sy&. 2

About 8 O'Clock Thursday morn
ing when Leo Meroux, who is en-
ployed as chore hoy on T. Hyson's
farm about two miles below thecity,
went out to the barn to commence
his mornings work he met a man In
the gateway Of the yard with a cloth
wrapped around his head and his
clothes !, covered with blood.
Startled at first by the appearance
Of the man, the boy soon regained
his senses and endeavored to see
what he could do for him. Mr.. Hy-
sen was called and hitching up a
team brought him to town and
took him over to the county Jail.
Sheriff Rider called DR.. Chance who
ordered that the man be taken to
the hospital at once. This was done,
the doctors finishing dressing his
wounds shortly before noon. When
Mr.. Hysen found tho man he was in
a very weak condition from loss of
blood and was also chilled as he was
out in all OF last nights rain. All
questions asked him were answered
at random and not at all correct
which easily convinced those who
found him that the man was not in
his right mind.
After the doctors, at the hospital
had dressed his wounds, they began
searching for something to show
who he was. As to his injuries his
entire body was bruised. His head
had suffered worst. The scalp was
split in the form of q cross all Of it
being loose from the bone. One
hand was also injured.
As to his identity a Northern Pa
ciflc railroad ticket was found in a
vest pocket, his hat and coat were
missing. His ticket called for pas
sage from Fargo, to st. Johns, Mich.
His name was found to be John
Pfegharr.1 From this alone it is
plainly evident that he had fallen
from one Of the early morning east
bound passengers. But how is a
mystry. The force of the fall has
tempo rarily deranged his mind SO
there is not thing which he says
that can be depended upon. He says
that he is butcher by trade. The
appearance of his hands seem to
make this fact. He told the officers
that he had two brotners-in-law,
Chas and John Keller, residing at
St. Johns, Mich. These two gentle
men have been photographed.
How he managed to fall from the
train here cannot be learned. An
effort is being made to gee II some
thing can be learned from the two
conductors of passenger trains Nos.
s and 4.
Phegharr must have had a rather
bad fall as two miles below the city
the trains have begun to make good
time. Then Mr.. Hyson's farm is
mile or more from the track 80 that
the unfortunate man had rather a
long walk after his fall. His ex-
posture also makes his condition
worse for he suffered several hours
before he could be given medical
assistance. At last reports he was
resting easy at the hospital.
LATER: Mr.: Pfegtarr died about
3:15 O'Clock Thursday without
regaining consciousness. Concus-
sion OF the brain, doctors say was
the cause OF his death. At this writ
ting the officials are being inter-
viewed as to the disposition of the
body, no answers having been re-
ceived from kilograms sent this
morning.

upon the next in the order of business
was to elect permanent officers of the
organization. Each OF the following
officers was elected without OPP
position:
President-Mrs c. B. Buchanan.
Vice President-Mrs. G. III. Brown.
Secretary-Mrs. E. M. Hoover.
Treasurer-Mrs. NJ. M: Williams.
The president then appointed CON-
lnit1ees for various purposes.
Mrs. E. NJ. Hoover and Mrs. =. H.
Nero were appointed as acommittee
OF two to draft a constitution and
bylaws. !. = *,,''' = :'@' ~, 81 ~ =
The first thing taken In considera~
ton in the attempt to Improve the
cemetery is to provide water in some
way. This Ia essential. Two ways
OF meeting THE requirement were
discussed. One, to extend a. pipe
from the present water works sys-
TEN to the cemetery, and the other
to erect a windmill on the crest of
the hill and lay water pipes about
the yard. A committee consisting Of
Mrs. M. NJ. Williams and Mrs. c. H.
Brown, was appointed to confer
with the Electric & Water company
to see what the cost would be in ex-
tending the pipes and also amount
required to erect a windmill.
Funds are another essential re-
quirement, it takes money to do
everything. Mrs. g. w. Massey, Mrs.
F. III. Nero and Mrs. S. F. Staples
were appointed as a soliciting COM
mittee. They are to put forth their
best efforts toward securing money
and all other assistance possible to
forward the desire OF the league.
The disposition of the lots Of the
cemetery was also spoken about.
It was said at Wednesdays meeting
that at his own suggestion, s. p.
Fuller, one of the owners OF the
cemetery, would allow the ladies Of
the league to have charge OF the sell
ng OF the lots and that all: they could
get over and above the original SELL
ing price of them would go to the
benefit of the league. Mrs. o. G.

During yesterdays meeting the
committee appointed to draft con-
stltution were given a few gentle
hints in regard to some points de-
sired ip their composition. Among
these were that the meetings of the
league be held at the city hall at 8
O'Clock in the afternoon OF the first

81 o. Dor 4th. 49,,

Pursuant to call, Wednesday
afternoon q number Of ladies Of the
city met at the city hall and took the
first steps towards forming league
or association for lettering the con-
dition of Oakland cemetery. The
number Of those present was about
thirty.6ve. This number was con-
siderably less than it should have
been as an attempt in such q direc-
ton should receive the hearty sup
port OF almost every Individual,
whether Interested personally or
otherwise in friends or relatives who
may now be resting there.
Disregarding this fact those pres
emit at Wednesdays meeting were en-
thusiastic and eager in their desire
to do something towards aiding
each other in forming some kind OF
an association whereby their COM
bined efforts could be used to the
best advantage for the purpose
mentioned above.
A few moments past three O'Clock
Mrs. G. H. Brown moved that Mrs.
G.. B. Buchanan act as temporary
chairman of the meeting. Such a
motion being agreeable to all Mre.
Buchanan took the chair. Mrs. E.
M. Hoover was chosen secretary
protein.
The object of the meeting was then
laid before those present. After a
thorough and interesting discussion
it was mutually agreed that they
form an improvement league the
first object of which would be to i'm
prove the present condition OF Oak
land cemetery. This being decided
upon the next in the order of business
was to elect permanent officers of the
organization. Each OF the following
officers was elected without OPP
position:

MASCULINE FASHIONS.
Dress Suits. Sack Coats and Trousers
and House Coats.


Extremists In dress are endeavoring
70 introduce the wearing Of braided
seams on evening dress trousers. This
attempt must be classed with the re-
cent one to create a vogue for velvet
collars on dress coats Both are va
garies of fashion that will be es-
chewed by men of taste, who are jeal-
Gus of the severe simplicity of even
ing clothes, endeared alike by custom
and tradition Occasionally fad or
this sort may be tacitly sanctioned by
correct dressers, but they quickly tire
of it. By most men braided seams,
velvet collars and like innovations IN
evening attire are regarded as a
species Of grotesqueness in apparel TO
be treated with amused tolerance.
Stripes and checks in sack suits are
little approved by the fastidjous. Dark
mixtures in rough fabrics, such as
cheviots and unfinished worsteds, are
very stylish. Serges, except rough
cloths, have been relegated to the
background. iCheviots with a sprink-
ling of red, brown or green in the pat
terms are eminently correct. sack
suits are cut loose and hence keep
than heretofore, and will doubtless be-
fore long attain the English standard
of fullness.
Smoking jackets and house coats
have not escaped the reaction from
gaudy colors that prevails in most
branches of mems apparel. At one
time recently the design was so ag-
gressively loud as TO induce a belief
that the limit had been reached
through sheer inability to go further.
Fashionable house coats are sold for
S5 to $25. They are made of fancy
worsteds with silk figures, plaid vi
cunas, Bedford cords, velveteens and
broadcloth, prettily adorned at the
cuffs, collars, lapels and pocket flaps.
They are to be had in plaids, checks
and ,velvets, lined and unlined. with
silk cording, satin binding or quilted
satin facings. The range OF prices is
wide.
/ Merchant tailors who are indisput-
ably the arbiters Of fashion in mems
clothes, have decided to revive braid
ed edges on frock and cutaway coats.
During the last few years raw edges
| held sole sway. II Is predicted that
the change will be gradual.
| Horseshoes have given a decided
FLIP to the popularity Of riding
whips, spurs, horses heads, crops
stirrups, buckles, whihietrees and 9th
or articles of jewelry emblematic OF
equestrlanism. Needless to add, the
fewer and palmer the ornaments worn
the clearer the proof Of their owners
good taste.
