GROUNDS SELECTED.
Big Shooting Event to Be Held at Ath-
letic Park.

[From Tuesdays Daily.]
The state tournament of the Iowa
Sportsmen's association for 1902 will
be held at the Athletic park in South
Ottumwa, as was decided at a meeting
of a committee representing the OF
tumwa Gun club with A. G. Leighton,
at the latter's office this afternoon.
The Ottumwa Gun club will, it is
thought lease the land owned by Mr.
Leighton, including some thirteen
acres, which was formerly partially
occupied by the baseball park, and
will use it as place to hold shoots
during the entire year.
The dates for the state tournament
are May 20, 81 and %. A meeting of
the Ottumwa Gun club was held last
evening and it was decided to begin
preparations for the event at once.
The program committee will set about
preparing the program in few days.
and something out of the ordinary is
promised. There will undoubtedly be
big crowd at the state shoot here
and it is the intention Of the local
shooters to make the 1902 shoot one
of the most successful in the history
of shooting in Iowa.
Interest Increasing.
Although the time for the tourna-
ment is months away yet, the members
of the club and in fact all shooters in
the city are beginning to take an in
terest in the matter New applica-
lions for membership are being receiv,
ed by the club and there are other
demonstrations that this will be one
of the best shooting years ever known
in Ottumwa. AS soon as the weather
begins to grow warm practice shoots
will be commenced in Ottumwa and
the interest will be brought to it's
greatest height when the tournament
Is held in May.
A Good Location.
The location chosen by the commit
tee this afternoon is the best in the
city, 1t is at the end of the South
Side car line and is in place where
the shooters are not troubled and dc
not trouble others.

IT c AN BE Blu lit
Plans for Inter-Urban Railway are
Practicable.
ENGINEER SAYS WILL NOT BE HARD
j. Frank Springfield, Experienced in
Matters Connected With Inter-urban
Lines, Says There Are no Obstacles
in Way Of Building Proposed Road.

[ From Tuesdays Duily.I
That an inter-urban line between
Ottumwa and Oskaloosa is a POSSIBLE
ity and that without a great eXpendi
ture of money, is the decision at which
j. Frank Springfield has arrived. Mr..
Springfield, as has been stated before
in the Courier, is the new general SUI
perintendent of the Ottumwa Traction
& Light Co., and has recently arrived
in the city from his former home in
Rochester, N. H. He is experienced
in matters regarding inter-urban rail
ways and engineering, and after a few
trips through the country over which
the proposed inter-urban line will run,
and after inspecting several of the
maps made for the once proposed OF
tumwa G. Northern railroad, Mr..
Springfield has come to the conclusion
that an inter-urban railway between
Ottumwa and Oskaloosa can be built
without a great outlay of money.
OskaIoosa Considering 1t.
G. w. Waddles, of Omaha, first vice
president of the Ottumwa Traction &,
Light Co., will be in the city in few
days, and at that time the proposition
WHICH Iue pIOluOlSIS VI Tie lulel-ul paI
railway are to make to the cities will
probably be formed. Attorney Harry
e. O'Neill and Mr.. Springfield have
conferred Informally with the Oska
loosa city councilmen and some of the
business men there, and that city is
highly in favor of the inter-urban line
and will doubtless furnish much sup
port to the scheme. The council, it is
said, has set apart next Monday even
ing for a special meeting at which
time they are to hear the proposition
of the promoters, if it is ready by thai
time to be given to the public.
A Good Suggestion.
Attorney Harry E. ONeill, who is in
teresting himself in the plans Cor TIT
inter-urban railway, suggests that thu
residents of Ottumwa and Wapell'
county who have friends or relatives
in Ohio and Indiana, where the inter
urban lines are in common use, write
to these people and learn about TIL
success with which the lines are meet
ing there. This is good suggestion
and will aid in giving the people o
this locality the advantage of the eg
perience of others.

ger of losing the power to keep his
body from striking the ground, Ed.
Roach, young teamster, rode at
break-neck speed across the Market
street bridge and up Market street as
far as the Courier Office this morning,
and was taken from his perilous po-
sition after his runaway team had
been stopped in the alley on Market
street between Main and Second.
Roach's accident and it's outcome
was about as near an approach to
miracle as is afforded the people of
Ottumwa nowadays, and scores OF
people who had expected to see the
young man either permanently injur-
ed or killed outright could scarcely be-
lieve their eyes when they saw him,
twenty minutes after the accident,
walking unassisted along Main street
Although his body is badly bruised
and he sustained a few minor cuts
about the left arm and leg he is not
badly injured, and after a short time
he will be able to resume his work.
Roach is employed by j. Smith, a
dairyman, residing on the South Side.
He was driving Mr.. Smiths team to
ward the North Side at about 1115
o'clock this morning, having only the
running gear with two planlSs from the
front bolster to the rear one. These
planks slid forward and struck the
horses while Roach was driving along
Church street in South Ottumwa, and
the animals becoming frightened, start
ed to run. The coupling pole broke
and the rear wheels We're left behind
Roach was thrown down upon tbs
front axle and his left foot caught ov
er the axle itself while his body was
kept from falling to the ground only
by clinging with his hands to the
axle.
In this position the youth rode hal
a mile, crossing the railroad tracks
at the north end of the Market stree
bridge on the way, and he was very
weak when the horses were finall!
stopped in the alley mentioned above
Roach was taken to DR.. D. G. Brock
mans Office, where he was examined
and found to be injured but slight,
as compared with what might have oc
Cured. He was able to walk arount
half an hour after the accident.
A buggy belonging to G. q. Morton
which was standing on Market street
was slightly damaged by being strucl
by the wagon to which the runawa.
team was hitched.
