AN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT
Two Men and a Woman Mixed up
in Accident on Main Street
Thursday Evening.

The first and only unfortunate &C
cident which has happened since the
automobile came TO Mitchell occurred
Thursday evening just before dusk on
the corner of Main street and First
Avenue west. L. Reckwith was out
driving in his car with two ladies',
and as he approached the corner Of
the street there was a large crowd
OF men standing on the crossing. Mr..
Beckwih stated that he slowed up
his machine and blew the horn in
warning, but as he could not stop the
machine in such a short space one
Of che men was run into and knocked
down but was not injured to any ex
tent as Mr.. Beckwlth said t he car
was M moving slowly and cautiously.
He gave it as his opinion that both
men we're drunk and in their efforts
to get out of the way they collided
with a young lady named Miss Pearl
Lord, who resides northeast of here IN
Hanson county. In the mix up Miss
Lords ankle Vas severely sprained
and Mr.. BeckwiJh said thai she was
not struck with much force by the
machine. His statement is verified
by several parties who saw the whole
proceeding.
When the machine struck in the
crowd there was much excitement
among the men and they made all
kinds Of threats against Mr.. Beck
with. They asserted that he was neg
ligent in going into the crowd, and
they also claimed that he was NOV
ing at a rapid pace when be turned
the Miss Lord stated that
the machine struck her and it car
ried her a short distance, probably a
few feet. Her body was bruised in
several places.
Mr.. Beckwith picked up the young
lady and took her to the Office of DR..
E. w. Freyberg, wnere she was CIV
en- medical attention She was TAX
en- to the residence OF Thos. Olson on
tie south side and it will be a week
before she can be taken home.
Mr.. Beckwith regretted the acct
dent very much, and claimed that he
did all that ha could to prevent 1T.
The young lady felt that she was in
no wav responsible for the accident
as she could not get out Of the way
of the machine. There seems to be
some question whether her ankle was
sprained by being struck by the auto
mobile or whether it occurred when
the two men pushed her over.

COMPLAINS OF OUR CORN.
European Merchants Declare il is I'm
properly Marketed.

Under date of May IA, 1905, United
States Consul General Richard Guen-
ther, Frankfort, Germany transmits
the following translation of an article
which appeared in the Frankfort Ca
zette of the same date:
"In spite of the numerous COM
plants which for years past have
been made against the sad condition
in which Indian corn from the United
States arrives in European ports, no
improvement has taken place. AS the
new crop was said to be Of excellent
quality recipients of the corn expected
it would turn out better, but expert
ence has already shown that this
hope is fallacious. Several ports of
entry have attempted to have these
abuses stopped. but their efforts have
been unavailing.
Recently the chamber of COM
merce of Crefeld has taken hold of
the question and has urgently request
ed the German Union of chambers of
commerce to take action at the con-
vention of the union which is to he
held in Berlin May 23. AS a prelim-
mary condition to success it is requis-
ite to get all the German. Dutch and
British grain ports and produce ex-
changes to act in unison
In a communication dated May IS
Consul General Guenther further re-
ports that the North German Lloyd
Steamship company states to the press
that in order to obviate the bad con-
dition of American corn upon its ar
rival in port it has caused experiments
to be made. These have led to the
adoption of the Clayton apparatus,
which produces sulphurous acid gas
to disinfect and sterilize the grain,
and also prevent danger by fire. The
experiments upon various small lots
of corn showed that the flavor and
quality of the grain are in no wise in
juriously affected. The Lloyd's
steamship Norderney has been equip
ped with a Clayton apparatus and if
found to work as expected the other
steamships of the companys La Plata
line will be provided with similar ap-
Dliances

Killed nv n Tick.

The 3months-old child of Mr.. and
Mrs. John Nichols died last Friday
and was buried Saturday. We under
stand that the little ones death was
caused by a tick which adhered to
the body and simply sucked the life
blood away.
While preparing the child's body
for the casket, the tick dropped to the
floor; it was almost an inch in dame
ter. 1t seems strange that it should
not have been discovered before the
death of the child.-Joseph Herald.
