and laughed gleefully as they hustled
chairs. When the music stopped they were

to beat Mr.. Sato. Just as he Jumped for

journal Special Service.

journal Special Service.
New York, Nov. 81. Pierpont Nor
gan, the banker, had a narrow escape
from death yesterday, while on his way
down town.
He was saved from being ground to
death under the wheels Of a Madison
avenue trolley car only by the extreme
exertlons OF the motorman, who threw
off the. current just as he was about to
strike the banker and brought the car
to standstill with such suddenness
that passengers were thrown from the
seats.
Mr.. Morgan had left his home and
taken short walk up the avenue. He
got as far as Forty fifth street when he
turned east toward the Grand station.
A downtown trolley car was approach
ing and Mr.. Morgan stood beside the
track while it sped by. Then he started
across the tracks, not noticing a north
bound car that was bowling up the ave-
nue., He had stepped into the, north
bound tracks when the Gathering gong
startled him and he seemed dazed.
- He tried to dodge out Of the way of
the north-bo car when second
south-bound car came on him. He
would have been struck had not the mo-
| torman damned on his brakes with such
force as to bring the car to standstill
with a terrific jolting.
Mr.. Morgan calmly stepped off the
tracks, and, smoking a big black cigar,
went on his way.

CROOKSTON'S DILEMMA
Bids on Agricultural Building and
Equipment Exceed Appropriation.

, CRooKsToN, MINN.-As result of visit
here BY State Architect johnson, it develops
that the bids on the agricultural building and
equipment. exceed the appropriation by about
$1,000. The state board of control refuses
to enter into contract in connection with
the new college building to exceed the appro-
priation and there is not sufficient time left
for a change in the plans and specifications
SO that the building can be finished this fall.
Citizens Of Crookston must guarantee the
$1,000 or $4,000 which the bids exceed the
appropriation. or the school will not be built
this fall. This would mean that no practical
demonstration of the work of the school could
be made in 1906, and therefore no appropria-
ton could be secured until the session of

Nine thousand persons had signed the consent,

explains that he believes the council exercised
undue haste in passing the resolution. He says
ne thinks the temperance people should have a

Much political capital has been made against
the mayor because he vetoed the resolution.
Fully two-thirds Of the voters signed the petit
