SAVED his EYE GLASSES
Fargo Attorney Had Peculiar Exper.
fence in the Oriental Limited
Wreck Near D0yon.

H. r. Turner, we'll known attorney,
was one of the passengers in the
smoking car of the Oriental Limited
train that was wrecked at Doyon. 1t
will be remembered that the smoker
was badly wrecked, one side being
shaved of clean. Mr.. Turner had just
got up from his seat minute before
the wreck and stepped across the car.
He left his rimless eye glasses lying on
the window sill. After the wreck he
thought of his glasses and bethought
himself to take look. He found them
in plain sight in heap of debris, con-
sisting largely of broken glass, but
his eye glasses were not injured In
the slightest particular.
