Serious Accident.

The result might have been very
much worse. Saturday evening as Mr..
Edward Winger and his sister, Hilda,
were driving homeward, they were the
victims of an unfortunate accident.
Owing to storm telephone wire near
the pump house in South DEBORAH was
down, and, resting in contact with
the electric light wires, was charged
with a strong current of death dealing
fluid. The wire lay in the road, and
Mr.. Winger's team was thrown by the
shock they received in crossing it, one
of the horses being killed. Mr.. W.
was also thrown by shock received
in trying to assist the horses. The
young people spent the night with
friends in the city.
We can count this most fortunate
escape, as, with circumstances slightly
altered, it would have resulted most
seriously.

Base Ball News.

Luther's base ball representatives
returned Sunday morning from their
trip north, having played three games.
Friday, the 10Th, they crossed bats
with the -mahs, at Minneapolis,
the official result being to in
favor of Minnesota. The Twin City
papers report this one of the pref
tiest games seen ON Northrop field.
Friday Luther put up to 0 game
against Carleton College, at North
field. Luther's second twirler, Mr..
lSeYareid, was in the box, and his neat
work until the ball makes promise of a
strong battery for next season also.
The 18th the Luthers played their an

the score being 10 to in favor of l..
Ca There are only two more games
ON schedule. Tomorrow the home
team tries conclusins with Wisconsin
University ON L. G. grounds. 1t is
bound to be an interesting contest.
May goth Minnesota University gives
Luther a return game, and the boys
are going to take their revenge for
their Minneapolis defeat. The col
lege has had a heavy schedule this
season, and have been playing good
ball. Get out and contribute your
mite to help the boys out financially.
The sport deserves encouragement, and

High Water Again.

The Upper Iowa looks like the real
thing in. the way of a river these days.
A greater volume of water has been
discharged through its channels this
spring than has been known in many
years. The rains of Saturday sent the
water once again climbing up the
banks to food water mark, and rains
up north ON Sunday, have served to
keep it there. The current is very
swift, and we are Informed by several
parties that large boulders and mig
gerheads" in instances weighing from
200 to $50 pounds, have been carried
along by the stream and deposited on
the low fields near ''The Pines. 1t
is to be hoped that this liberal supply
of rain will have a sustaining effect
on the numerous springs that serve to
.beautify our. surrounding country.

OF carriers in street ears in the different
free delivery cities.
s.For instance, including substitutes.
there are 275 carriers in Washington.
You may have observed that carriers,

riers. The postmaster is authorized to
make a contract with the companies to
transport ali carriers while on duty for
a lump sum, which he does. The car
rier must have his pouch with him,
which is q sign manual to the conduct
or that he is on duty, the mere wear
ing Of his uniform being insufficient.
This rule obtains in some cities,
while in Others special tickets are sold
at special rates to be used only by car
5riers, or the cash is handed direct to
the carrier fo a certain number of
daily trips, depending upon the prac-
tice. Thus. while Washington receives
$4,000, Chicago gets $4,000 for letter
carriers car fare because of its large
territorial extent and distance between
stations on the prairie, oftentimes ne
cessitating a double fare by the car
rier. Boston is allowed S13,500 and

coo each. Few people know that the

The Condition of Trade.

New York, June 14.-R. G. Dun &
Co: s Weekly Review of Trade, issued
today, says:
No dlmunition in business is appa-
rent from labor controversies, owing to
the prosperous condition of the agri-
cultural sections and the bright out
look for this years crops. Retail dis
tribution of lightweight wearing ap-
parel has felt the stimulus of higher
temperature Railway earnings in
May were 81 per cent. larger than
last year and 2l.7 per cent. above those
Of 1900. There continues to be a
wide discrepancy between the amount
of business offered and the contracts
closed in many branches of the iron
and steel industry, owing to the in
ability of producers to. assure delivery
at a specified time. Contracts run
ming well into next year indicate that
the end of activity is not near. Pres
sure is still conspicuous for railway
and structural supplies and agricultu-
raj implement works are crowded
with orders. Limited stocks are still
the cause of steadiness in all branch
es Of textiles. Holders are not urging
sales and buyers show disposition to
wait.
Purchasers of cotton goods are inhu-
enced by the prospect of cheaper raw
material after the new crop begins to
move. Cotton rose slightly on few
unfayorable weather reports, but the
outlook is very bright in many States.
Grain markets have shown the effect
of conflicting crop estimates and
weather reports.
