BOY ADMITS GUILT
Mother Hears Son Tell of At
tempt to Wreck Train

There was pathetic scene in the
Washington county court room yester-
day morning when Mrs. Malcolm Nell
son, of St. Paul, met her son Harry.
who tried to wreck a passenger train
on the Northern Pacific railroad last
Tuesday morning between Hugo and
Forest Lake
Harry Nelson, II years old, with
father helpless at home from an injury
received some years ago in a wreck on
the same road placed ten posts ON
the railroad track last Tuesday in an
effort to wreck the train. He admits
the crime, but says that his father has
not been able to do a days work since
sustaining the injury in the wreck of
the train five years ago. A desire for
revenge for his fathers injury and his
subsequent sufferings inspired the boy
TO the attempt TO wreck the railway
company's train, forgetfui of the fact
that his act might have cost the lives
OF 200 passengers.
The meeting in the court room was
the frst the mother and son had since
young Nelson's arrest soon after the
attempted train wrecking. Both were
much affected and the mother cried as
she caressed the lad whose wild act
may cost him his freedom for years TO
come. The boy evidently realized the
nature of the offense. but he was stolid
throughout the meeting with his moth
er and beyond statement admitting
his guilt, said little. He says that he
placed ten posts on the track. and
tFainTnen viii testify that the obstruc-
ton caused the deFailment of the front
trucks OF the baggage car in the pas
senger train.
Mrs. Nelson was acconlpanied tn
Saltwater by Percy Godfrey, a ST. Paul
attorney but owing TO the absence
from the city OF County Attorney J. C.
Nethaway, the case was continued TO
10 o'clock Wednesday morning.
