A CHAPTER OF ACCIDENTS
One Man Has Head Cut on. AnOth er
Roth Legs and "a Third Losses
Foot.

One man with his head severed from
the body, one with both legs cut off be-
low the knees and another with his
right foot severed, is the result of a
sequence of accidents on the main line
of the Great Northern near Skykomish,
some eighty miles west OF here last
Sunday night.
James Wolfe is the man who was
killed. A former section hand on the
road. he had been discharged on ac-
count OF drunkenness, and had started
to walk up the track toward Madison.
He was evidently struck by a north
bound freight, from the position OF the
remains when found by the crew of the
train which had cut off both of the logs
of e. A. Gates, who had boarded the
train for the mines of the Fo-s Greek
Mining Com pany, where he was EN-
ployed.
Gates had tried TO jump while the
train was moving at high speed, and in
some manner was thrown beneath the
wheels. None of the crew saw him
Jump, consequently he was left beside
the tracks with both legs off.
Helpless, but conscious, he crawled
mile down the road, when overtaken
by a south bound freight. Throwing
himself to one side he yelled loud
enough to attract the attention OF the
engineer, who stopped the train, and
with the conductor, carried him
aboard. Just as he was about to pull
out again the engineer noticed in the
center OF the track, in the glare of the
headlight, the head Of Wolfe, standing
squarely on the stump of the neck,
with eyes wide open and a grin across
the face. Further search down the
track revealed other portions of the
mans anatomy.
The sight was siekening, but the
crew gathered together what remains
were left. and with the injured man
took them TO Everett.
B. Sears, the third man injured, was
a brakeman on the Great Northern
While coupling cars at Skyko-
mish he lost his balance, slipping be-
meath the wheels, losing his right foot.
With Gates he was taken to Everett
for treatment. The remains OF Wolfe
were taken TO Seattle.

RECITAL IN VOICE
AND EXPRESSION.
Two Young Ladies of Ward
Seminary Render Pro-
gramme of Dramatic
Excellence.

The chapel of Ward Seminary was fill
ed by highly cultured audience last
night to hear the recital by Miss Mamie
Hill, of Tennessee, and Miss Gertrude
Rice. of Illinois, 10 recital. These
young ladies are members of the grad
uating class Of the School of Expression,
and the programme arranged for them
was a most difficult one on account Of
the wide range, but the young ladies'
gave each humber with ease and grace
that reflected not only credit on them.
selves, but upon their instructors. The
Interpretation Of each number was with
dramatic force and histrionic expression
which won the unstlnted pIaudite OF the
large audience. The programme pub
lished in the Banner yesterday was car
ried out in detail, and every number re-
ceived much applause. The range of
the programme took in not only the
whole gamut of humor and pathos of
American writer's, but ran into the Ger
man classics, and each number was
rendered with an expression and drama
tic enunciation which would mark both
young ladies as condolences OF much
talent and ability. There was nothing
of the boisterous extreme shrilness
which is sometimes heard in the amateur
reader in the work Of either young lady.
Their enunciation was distinct and
every climax was developed In manner
that showed that their training had been
par excellent. Nashville Banner.

MILWAUKEE,, May 2.-The first au-

cause of the downfall of Frank It.
Bigelow, the defaulting bank Presi-
dent, was made today by an intimate
friend of Bigelow. In brief Bigelow's
friend attributes the disaster to an
over abundance of confidence in bus
mess ability which he did not possess
Bigelow, his friend states, denies en-
phaticaly that he lost money in a
wheat deal.
IF you were to ask him how the
money was spent be would be unable
to tell you," said Bigelow's friend.
"His affairs are in a remarkable tan
gle. Considering his long career in
business it is unbelievable that mat
tiers should be found in such a con-
dition

take the bank 8 funds is matter

he says. W hen an examination the of
bank was made last January moth
ing was discovered. For all | know
it did not begin until after that time.
There was an absolute lack of sys-
tenn about anything he did so far as
his own affairs are concerned. There
was no plan, such as a crook might
devise, no careful turning of every
act toward common point or pur-
pose is to be discovered"
