AUTO RUN TO BOSTON.
WcIch Car Arrires First after a
Rough journey.
IBy Telegraph to The tribune.

Boston, March 12-The Welch car. driven
by Perlman. arrived in this city tonight at
o'clock winner Of the endurance run from New
York. in which three other cars started.
The performance Of the car was considered re-
markable when il is taken into consideration that

II was o'clock in the morning when the four
machines left Central Bridge for the 245 mile jour

Then Perlman started and the way in which the
car sped the snow seemed TO prove his asser-
ton
From Bridgeport Perlman wired that he had

hours, that no others were in sight. and that the
snowdrifts simply awful, being in places four
feet high. Several times he said. the WEIGH car
was embedded in the drifts and got out only
through its powerful engine
Perlman's last forenoon message was telephoned
from New Haven, eighty miles. which he had
reached in three hours. His competitors at that
point were not in sight. He said it had taken him

IT MAY PROVE FATAL
Thomas Thomas of Beacon Badly
Hurt In the Mines.

Thomas Thomas, of Beacon, an
aged miner employed in the Garfield
Coal Co. mine near Beacon, met with
a very painful accident about one
O'Clock Monday afternoon which may
prove fatal. Mr.. Thomas is over six
ty-five years old and has followed the
trade of mining for many years. He
has often been solicited not to work
in the mine, but it seems that work
ing under the ground has fascina,
ton for him. After becoming too old
to dig coal he has been employed as
trapper. Yesterday while a train
of cars was being taken out of the
mines, a coupling broke. Mr. Thomas
was standing on the track and was hi
by car. His hip was badly crushed.
He was taken to his home, where med
zeal attention was called, 1t is posi-
bic that il the man RECEIVERS from tnt
accident, which is doubtful, his lower
limbs will be paralyzed.

CITY MARKET PLACE.
Place Is Being Used But Not For
Purpose Intended.

The city market place is being used!
Not exactly for the purpose intended
and for which the city council said it
would be used by the first day of July
A. d. 1907. But just the same the site
is now occupied and the workmen
and machinery engaged and the large
audience of spectators give the place
a busy appearance. A complete
threshing outfit and big straw COM
press are buzzing merrily and several
teams are busy hauling straw to feed
the big animal.
The straw is being prepared for the
Oskaloosa Harness factory across the
street, and the process attracts much
attention. 1t is the best rye straw
that can be had, and after being thor
oughly cleaned is being put up in
monster bales to be stored for future
use. Manager Jackley of the Harness
Factory is experimenting the opera
tions and is securing a fine pack.

OFFICER IS RELEASED
Ruggenberg's Resignation Is Asked
For by Mayor Ralston.

AS the result of the action taken by
Mayor Chas. H. Ralston in asking for
the resignation of officer John Rug
genberg, 0skaloosa has lost one of
its most faithful and trusted police
men. The resignation was asked for
two weeks ago and the officer waited
that length of time for the mayor to
state his reasons for discharging him.
After the regular meeting of the city
council last evening the trouble culmi-
mated in heated word battle in which
Mr.. Ruggenberg lost no time in telling
the. chief executive what he thought of
him. He started the discussion, while
several members of the council were
still in the room, by asking Mr.. Rails
ton his reason for so unceremonious-
ly releasing him, but the mayor re-
fused to state any cause and Rug
genberg laid down his star Richard
Cricket was at once summoned and
sworn in to fill the vacancy for the
night.
Mr., Ruggenberg began work this
morning as fireman on the Iowa Cen
trail and he retains his years rights in
that position, as he was fireman last
year and was laid off only on account

On Friday, Sept. 10, oskaloosa ex-

manner, which beats the fire record
of any day for eight or ten months.

THE RAMSAY STRIKE.
Cars Are Cleaned and Men Return
to Their Work.

The two hundred and fifty miners
residing in this city and Evans who
refused to work yesterday at the Gar
field Coal Co. mines near Evans, on
account of the cars used in transport
ing the Oskaloosa miners to Evans,
being uncleaned after having notified
the Ramsay Bros, owners of the
mines, returned to their work this
morning. The walk out was not real
ly strike, the miners refusing to
work on account of the operators pay
ing no heed to their statement, so they
thought. The Ramsay Co. had made
arrangements with the Rock Island
that the cars be cleaned every morn
ing. This morning when the Oska-
loosa miners went to the trian which
transports them to and fro, they found
the floors clean as a pin, as well as
the seats. Neither side were fighting
against the other, the fault mainly ly-
ing with the Rock Island, who did not
send man around yesterday morning
to clean the car. -..
