Boy Hurled About Shaft Narrowly Es-

Spencer, S. d., Nov. 24.-But for the
fortunate giving away of his clothing
Frank Young, the thirteen year oldson
of farmer living near here, probably
would have been killed.
The boy was watching a threshing ma
chine in operation on his fathers farm,
and getting too close, was caught in the
tumbling shaft of the machinery. Be-
fore his tpredicament was discovered he
had been whirled about the shaft several
times by the swiftly moving machinery.
Just as death was staring him squarely
in the face, his clothing parted with the
strain, and the boy was left, stripped to
the skin, but alive.
Thirty seconds more would probably
have seen him dashed to pieces. AS it
was he received serious injuries, but is
expected to recover. anq

MAY Be GOOD THING
New Plan for Electric Line
in MankatO.
IT OUGHT TO Be PUSHED.
Connection With Minneapolis and Du-
buque Road Via Faribau'i; Size
Up OF Plans.
From Thursdays Daily.

From Thursdays Daily.
Projectors of the Minneapolis & Du-
buque Electric railway may connect
Mankato with the main road by the con-
struction of branch out of Faribault.
1t is understood that those who are be-
hind the plans of the electric road would
like to connect up with Mankato, and
Faribault is considered the most feas-
ible point out of which the branch could
be constructed. 1t is the purpose of the
promoters of the enterprise to build a
city line in Mankato also, if the con-
nection is made with Faribault. The
plans for this end of the trolley line
are still in the incubator and no one
pretends to say that they will be con-
summated for some time at least. 1t
will depend largely upon the attitude
of the people of this city whether the
deal goes through. The Free Press un-
derstands that at some time in the not
far distant future gentlemen represent
ing the Minneapolis & Dubuque line will
make a proposition to Mankato through
the medium of the Commercial club.
The Minneapolis & Dubuque road is
not a dream. Surveys have been made
and much of the right of way contract
ed for. The company is now negotiat-
ing for a franchise in Rochester.
The road will be thoroughly equipped
with passenger and freight and express
cars. 1t will run sleepers on its pas
senger trains and be enabled to cater
to the best of the passenger business.
1t is presumed that passenger rates will
be lowered somewhat,
