FACE CUT BY BROKEN GLASS

pleasant Experience.

Mrs. Henry Heller, of West King
street. had a thrilling aud unpleasant
experience on Pennsylvania railroad
train the other side OF Harrisburg on
Saturday. which resulted in painful
though not serious injuries to herself
and little child. Mrs. Heller was gu
ner return from visit to her sister,
Mrs. Martina Breth. at Altoona, Pa.
and was nearing Harrisburg. She oc-
cupied "a scat in the ladies' day coach,
which was invaded by several men
who were supposed to be under the
influence of liquor.
Two of the drunken men came
lurching down the aisle, and when
opposite the seat occupied by Mrs.
Heller and Der children, a fight be-
tween the men occurred. One of the
men struck the other. knocking him
into the seat occupied BY Mrs Heller.
HRS. Helier's youngest child was
standing ap looking ont of the win
dow, aud the man, in falling, lurches
against the lady, and she ia turn fell
against the child. The window was
completely shattered, aud hut for the
/ fact that one Of the liInbs OF the child
was wedged between the eoge and tia
4 body of ats mother, it would have been
thrown from the train and killed.
| Mrs. Heller's head was brought iuto
violent contact with the edge of the
window, aud she was knocked sense
less by the blow. A portion of the
broken glass, which was still wedged
in the sash. caught her in the corner
of the left eve aud cut deep and
painful cash down across her cheek.
She remained in an unconscious con-
dition for several minutes, and was
cared for by other ladies on the train
until physician could be summoned,
the conductor holding the train until
she was revived and made comfort
able.
The Injured lady was placed on the
/ southbound Cumberland Valley train,
and arrived at her home here in the
evening suffering from her injuries
and the shock OF her UNPLEASANT ex-
perience What became of the drunken
men is not known.

Mr.. NEER MARRIED.
AGED BRIDEGROOM KEPT HIS
MARRIAGE sEcRET
gedued Miss Gamma Fryatt Three
weeks Ago at she Preshyterian
m&nse

The many friends of Mr.. John W.
Neer. of South Water street, were sur-
prised to learn Thursday that he had
been benedict for the past three
weeks. The marriage bad been kept
a secret and even Mr.. Neer's children
knew nothing Of the event and their
surprise was even greater than that
of his frierds.
Mr.. Neer married Miss Emms
Fryatt. who resides on East JOHN
street, about three weeks ago. The
ceremony was performed BY DR.. f.
M Woods, pastor Of the Presbyterian
church, at the manse on South
Queen street. Tire ceremony was wit
messed only bv those who were bound
TO seorecv, and by this means the
wedding did not become known until
Thursday. Thursday evening some
one informed member of the Family
of Che event and the rumor was found
to soe correct. The marriage license
vas issued tv County Clerk Bender
over three weeks ago, but the permit
was never recorded aud has not been
as yet. THIS, together with this secrecy
at the ceremony kent the family and
friends in ignorance of the fact.
Since the wedding EIr. Neer has been
living at his home on Water street
and Mrs. Neer at her former resi-
denoe on Fest John street, where she
boards with Mr. and Mrs Perrell.
The object of the secrecy of the we'd
ding was the objection of Mr.. Neer's
children. VINO objected on account OF
their fathers advanced age, he being
"a years old. The bride is about 81
years his junior. Manv will yet lear1
of the wedding with surprise.

Fire Department Gets S202..e

The Princeton fire department re-
ceives s2O2.76 from the State as its
pro rata of the tax on premiums paid
on fire insurance.
Cities and villages in Minnesota
that have fire departments or fire re-
lief associations will receive s9l. 49,, 81
as the 1903 apportionment of the 2 per
cent tax paid by insurance companies
on premiums on Minnesota business.
This amount is reckoned on premiums
amounting to ST, $50, S76.24 and is twice
as much as was apportioned last year.
The increase is due to a law passed by
the last legislature providing that all
OF the 2per cent tax, instead of half of
1t, be paid to cities and villages hav-
ing fire departments.
There were forty-one cities and vii
lagos in the State that paid more than
SlO: 600 in premiums last year. Prince
ton paid SO, 1880 as premiums on fire
insurance. The State aid will be a fine
nest egg for the company.

able thing is the decrease in the size
Of the. logs. In early logging days it
required but few logs to scale thou
sand feet. In 1876 the boomage scale
at Minneapolis showed four and one
half logs per thousand In the next
ten years the average was six logs to

next decade was nine logs to thou
sand. In the next seven years the
average was twelve logs to a thou
sand, and for the past three years the
average has been thirteen logs per

Socialists of Otter Tail county have
placed full county ticket in the field
and adopted a platform. They affirm
that those who produce the wealth of
the world should enjoy it which is
quite true, but the great trouble with
the Socialists is that they place the
hoe and the bod above brains and
talent, and anarchy above ambition.
In other words they are peculiar class
Of hold-up artists. They stand for
collective ownership in preference to
private ownership, that is to say they
are SO magnanimous and generous
that they would prefer to have all the
farm hands Of Otter Tail county enter
into a joint ownership with the So
cialists of said county in peaceful
possession Of the rich farm lands which
said Socialists have nailed onto bv
