Sprainod Ms Back,

Conductor Harry Smith, on the ar
rival of his train, No. 5, from St.
Paul, was taken from the train this
morning at the Great Northern depot
and removed to the Grand Central for
medical treatment. He returned home
to St. Paul this afternoon.
Mr.: Smith this morning bad oeca.
sion to eject drunken tramp from
his train at the 500 junction, just
north of Minneapolis. The big fellow
was intoxicated and resisted. It took
four men to move him TO the ground
and in the melee Conductor Smith
severely strained his back.
He is one of the Oldest and most
popular conductors of the system and
it is unfortunate that he should re-
ceive an injury for so worthless a
wretch as his assailant undoubtedly
is.-St. Cloud Journal-Press, 18th

May Pattern After Us.

The Great Northern has finished
grading for the new park on Pacific
Avenue in Willmar. This is the ave-
nue. which runs parallel with sthe rail
road as you go into Willmar. Visi-
tors have often wondered why the peo-
pie of Willmar always left this street
to it's fate, as it were, and especially
was this true around the depot. Two
years ago steps were taken to change
all this. The Women's Improvement
league took up the matter and with
the aid of the Great Northern Com
pany this street has been made into a
park. What Willmar has done Clara
City could do. Spicer Avenue could
easily be fixed up to make it more pre-.
sentable than what it is now and the
railroad company would assist in
making the right of way look like a
park the entire distance of Spicer Ave

Arrested for Fast Driving.

Some parties have found quite q
little amusement of late in driving
around on the streets of our city at a
speed that would confer much credit
upon the latest kind of horses, the
automobiles. After repeated trials OF
the sport they were finally stopped
and arrested by our city marshal and
yesterday they had to appear in court
and give an account of their deeds.
They pleaded guilty and the Judge i'm
posed q fine of one cent and costs,
amounting to @ Oh. Although this
was not much, it certainly will be q
warning for the future. People ought
to be very careful in driving about
the city, especially in the evening, and
we hope that no more cases of this
kind will be heard.

Net with an Accident.

While little Eva, daughter of S. P.
johnson, was playing near the house
with some other children, she met with
an accident that fortunately had no
serious consequences. She was walk
ing on a piece of 2x4 scantling, in
which were several rusty nails, when
she lost her balance and fell over,
thereby running one of the rusty nails
into her leg, cutting a deep cash lit
tie above the knee. Doctor McLaugh-
lin was sent for Immediately, and it
was found necessary to take several
stitches. At present the little patient
is doing very nicely and 1t is not
thought that any serious complica-
tions will result.

No. 8 Net with Accident.

The st. Paul-Winnipee train, sched-
uled to be here at 11:10 p. m. Satur-
day evening, did not arrive until Sun
day morning at 7 O'Clock. The delay
was due to an accident that luckily
did not prove very serious. When
the train was about q mile and half
on this side of Cokato, the journal of
the middle driver on the left side
broke, and carrying part of the side
rod with it, the big wheel rolled down
the embankment. Fortunately the en-
gine did not jump the track and after
having run for about two train lengths
Engineer Chas. Lowe managed to stop
the crippled engine. The engine of
the Willmar-Soo City train, which is
made up at this point and scheduled
to leave here at 11:30, was sent down
to haul the Winnipeg passenger on to
Willmar. This took considerable
time and it was 7 O'Clock Sunday
morning when the st. Paul-W innipeg
train arrived here. The damaged en-
CINE was sent down for repairs and
another and heavier engine secured,
after which the journey was continued.
The Willmar-Soo City train pulled
out at 8 o'clock. This is by no means
the first time there has been an acci-
dent on the Great Northern with SO
little damage. It seems a. If Jim Hill
is very fortunate with his railroad,
and when other roads have q big
wreck on account of driver flying
of, the Great Northern generally gets
out of it very easy,

was Badly Injured,

Lawrence Peterson, son of John
Peterson, who lives in Kandiyohi,
was last Monday the victim of an &C.
cident that happened while he was out
in the field with his father, who was
plowing. The boy was walking in
the field and his father did not suspect
any danger. After q while q neigh
boris boys who were working near by
saw Lawrence lying on the ground.
They hastened to the place and found
that he was unconscious and bleeding
from q bad cut in the forehead. The
boy was Immediately taken home and
the wound washed, but when the
boy recovered consciousness, he was
unable to tell how the accident
happened. 1t is thought, however,
that he was kicked by colt that
had been let out of the pasture and
was following the horses used for
blowing. The boy was taken into the
city and = DIR. Mclaughlin had to
make several stitches in sewing up the
wound. The right eye is badly
swollen, but it is not thought his left
eye will be permanently injured. At
present the boy is doing very nicely.
