SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
Horse Becomes UnmanasabIe and In.
lures the Driver,


Clarence Anderson, the young man
who delivers goods for the Skinner
department store. met with serious
accident last Friday, which will lay
him up for some time at least. We
are told that the horse which he has
been driving has habit OF shying
and backing up when he takes no.
tion and that it has been customary
on the part Of the driver, on such oc-
casions, to get out and take the horse
by the head to straighten him out and
get him started right. On this par.
ticular occasion the young man got
the horse by the bits, but the animal
kept backing until the wagon struck
a tree, whereupon the horse reared
on his launches cleaving the air with
his fore feet. Unfortunately one OF
the sharp shod hoofs struck the boy
on the jaw, cutting deep cash across
the chin and driving the jaw back
against the ear bone, causing a COM
bined fracture OF the ear and jaw
bones. 1t was very painful accident
but DR.. Hyde, who has the patient In
charge, says he is doing fine and,
while there is always possibility of
some complication arising, there is
every hope for his ultimate and CON-
plete recovery.

DREW LARGE CROWDS.
Cha< A. Skinnefs Department Store
Formally Opened.


An Attractive Feature Fine Goods
Lovely Flowers Sweet Music.
The special grand opening of G. A.
SINNERS department store In the
New Century block marks another
epoch In the forward march of the
business interests OF the city.
The Opening" began last week
Wednesday and continued until Sat
nrday evening, drawing large crowds
OF people, many of whom came from a
long distance TO see the elaborate dis
play Of fine goods.
! Thursday and Friday it was esti-
mated thaS not less than 1000 people
each evening visited the store requir-
Ing double force of clerks to show
the visitors about. Duden's orchestra
furnished music and with pleasing
effect.
The establishment was in spring
array. The display windows under
the skilled hands Of Mr.. Hanson were
adorned in the finest style, which
with the brilliancy of the electric
lights, produced an effect equal to
those seen on State street, Chicago,
or Hennepin avenue, Minneapolis.
Many of the visitors no doubt had
never witnessed such an extraordinary
scene. The interior of the store was
even more attractive, bedecked as 1t
was with blooming plants, bright col
ored silks, ribbons and fine laces.
Every department. was replete with
interesting features. One person was
attracted by an article in wearing
apparel, another by something new In
the grocery line, but all were highly
interested Ia the general view before
them. Mr.. Skinner in his arrange
ment of store furniture has spared no
pains and in fact the fame OF this
establishment has been sent far east,
and calls for photographs showing the
way it has been furnished, are being
received. The proprietor has ran
sacked the best markets to find good
goods which may be sold cheaply. In
answer to an inquiry Mr.. Skinner
said 81 don't propose to get the name
Of selling cheap goods cheap. My aim
is to sell good goods cheap" A care
full inspection of his stock bears out
his words. Every department is filled
with desirable goods which are being
sold at fair prices, in many instances
at bargains.
As has been illustrated by his special
grand opening Mr.. Skinner intends
doing nothing by halves. He has
arranged to make special displays OF
seasonable goods and there is no doubt
but that people far and near will be
attracted by this model establishment
and the opportunities it affords those
who want to keep in touch with up-to-
date styles and the-best to be had on
the market In every line handled.
