NARROWLY ESCAPES DEATH.
An Engine Colides with a Loaded Log
gjng Sleigh. Marrow Escape for y
the Driven.

Last Saturday afternoon Thos. Lam
don, who has been hauling logs for Jno
Gudegast at Smiths Siding, five miles
this side of Watersmeet, met with a.
serious accident and one which result
ed in the loss of his team and came
very near ending fatally to himself as
we'll.
1t appears that the road leads down
quite pitch where it crosses the rail-
road. Mr.. Landon had reached the
top of the hill with his load and STOP
ed, as is the usual custom, to ascertain
whether any trains were in sight. Not
hearing any, the track being out OF
sight at this point of the road, he start
ed down with his load. When about
ten rods from the track he looked for
trains again and not seeing any con-
Guided that the coast was clear. Just
as team was going on to the track they
were struck by the engine of a south
bound extra hauling a Hanger One
of the horses was injured SO bad that
it had to be killed. The other horse
was killed instantly. Mr.. Landon was
standing on the load and did not see
or hear the train until it was too late
to avert the accident. He fell among
the logs and how he escaped with his
life is indeed miracle, He was injur-
ed about the hips and .lback. and will
probably be laid up for some time. d
nThe fanger was thrown from the
track and temporarily put out of com-
mission. The ''dinky' caboose was
dismantled from its trucks and thrown
cross ways of the track. None OF the
train crew were injured.
After the caboose had been placed on
the trucks, the train was run to this
place, bring Mr.. Landon here for med
ical attendance. His Injuries were
dressed by DR.. Neville, the company S
surgeon.
The accident is doubly serious to Mr..
Landon as it not only deprives him OF
valuable team, but his injuries will
confine him indoors for some time.

Progress of Northern Wisconsin.

Thirty years ago very lltGle logging
was dono north of Grandfather rapids.
All of that country north from Grand
father to Lake Superior was an unbrok-
en- wilderness, where roamed the In
dian and trapper. True a few white
men lived at Eagle River and John
Curran operated logging camps where
now stands the city of Rhine.ander.
But few of the lumber jacks who USED
to hike it from Merrill to Eagle River
ever dreamed that they would live TO
see the day that section of the country
would be penetrated by railroads. How
ever, many of them may live to see
steamboats, plying on the Wisconsin
river north from Rhinelander to Eagle
River and up the chain OF lakes. A
proposition is now on foot to improve
the Wisconsin river by building locks
at Otter Rapids and locks on some OF
the thoroughfares connecting the lakes.

The sweeping verdict was totally UNI
expected and caused sensation in Wash
ington. Major Holmes Conrad, special
counsel for the government, in his clos
ing address to the jury, expressed his
personal conviction that Samuel A.
Croft, inventor of the letterbox fastener
and for twenty years a policeman i'll the
District of Columbia, was innocent of
all connection with the conspiracy and
urged his acquittal. The jury, however,
came to another conclusion and convict
ed the former policeman. The jury was
out less than eight hours.
The announcement of the foreman Of
the jury that the verdict was guilty as
to all four defendants" took them COM
plctely by surprise Machen, who here
tofore had practiced self-restralnt to 4
higher degree than any of his codefend-
ants, half jumped from his chair. Per-
spiration started from his face in streams
and he seemed about to collapse. He
recovered his nerve in a moment, how
ever, and all traces of emotion disap-
peared.
The senior counsel for the defendants
promptly made Il motion for Il new trial
and then asked that the defendants be
admitted to bail pending it's disposition.
Judge Pritchard, who presided over the
long trial, fixed the bail of each defend
ant ut $4,000 and four separate bonds
were given and approved. Then the con-
victed men were again released from Gus

WELL WORTH SEEING

One of the most interesting exhibttA
among the many Of all kinds at the Louisi-
ana Purchase Exposition in St. Louis is
that Of the Winchester Repeating Arms
Company, Of New Haven, Conn, manu-
facturers of repeating rifles and shotguns
and all kinds of ammunition. The exhibit
was in readiness and was opened on the
first day Of the fair, fact that clearly
illustrates the enterprise and up-to-date
methods of the company behind 1t. 1t is
the aim of the Winchester Repeating Arms
Company to show at their exhibit the high
development which they have reached in
the making of guns and ammunition, and
one needs only to see the exhibit to realize
how near to perfection that development
has come. There can be seen the new auto
matte repeating rifle, all kinds of shotguns,
the modern smokeless powder shotgun
shells and rife cartridges; in fact every
thing that can interest the devotees Of
hunting and trap and target shooting.
Don't fail to see the exhibit at the Manu-
facturers and Fish and Game Buildings.
It's well worth your while.

CROP BULLETIN OF NEBRASKA
Damage to Winter Wheat Greater
Than at First Supposed.

IMAM at FIRST supposed.
UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA,
LINCOLN, NEB.-The past week has
been cool and wet with very little sun
shine, except on the last two days,
which were nearly clear. The daily
mean temperature has averaged Z de-
grees below normal
The rainfall has exceeded an inch
in all except the extreme northwest
ern portion of the state and has ranged
from two to five inches in consider
able area in the central portion of the
state.
The continued wet weather has been
unfavorable for crop interests. Win
ter wheat harvest is just beginning
and the crop is found to be much
more damaged by rust and ergot than
had been previously supposed. In
most central and western counties this
damage is not great, but in southeast
ern counties it is serious. The dam
age is variously estimated in different
localities, but large proportion of
the estimates range from 80 to so per
cent Of the crop.
Oats also have been damaged some
what in eastern counties by rust and
lodging, but oats are doing we'll nn
central and western counties. Spring
wheat generally is doing we'll Grass
has grown finely. The second crop of
alfalfa promises to be large. Corn has

Last September, my little boy had
Dropsy; his feet and limbs were
swollen to such an extent that he
could not walk nor put his shoes on.
The treatment that the doctors were
giving him seemed to do him no good
and two or three people said his days
were short, even the doctors, two of
the best in the country told me he
would not get better. I stopped their
medicine and at once sent for Dodd' g
Kidney Pills. l gave him three Pills
a day, one morning, noon and night
for eight days; at the end Of the
eighth day the swelling was all gone,
