Four Denison young people, Emil
Hugg, Miss Martha Hugg and Ed
ward and Clarence Kienle were in
Charles City Sunday. June 7th. and
were eye witnesses of the terrible
cyclone which swept the city, killing
two people. injuring number. and
destroying many homes. MIR. Hugg
and his sister were sitting on the
porch. The day. had been one of
showers and hot sunshine alternative
lv. About five O'Clock they saw the
storm approaching. Emil says it look
ed like great cloud of steam with
shingles, and later boards and all sorts
of things flying in the air. They saw
that they would not be in the path
of the storm and SO they sat and
watched it as it plowed through the
outskirts of the city. The river
seemed to defect the storm which
would otherwise have passed through
the most thickly settled part of the
town. Mr.. Hugg brought back some
interesting photographs of the ruins
which he has loaned to Mr.. Chamber
lain for his display window. Miss
Hugg and Ed and Clarence Kenele
were students at the Charles City COL
lege, which fortunately was out of
the path of the storm.

CATCHER WAS SORE
Hubbards and snyder's
Colts Play at Harrison
Park Yesterday.

The old time Hubbard's and Nick
Snyder's Colts met at Harrison Park
yesterday to play a game of base ball
for $50 a side The batteries for the
Hubbard's were Eder, catcher and Hill
pitcher, and for the Colts St Clair
catcher and Nears, pitcher. The game
ended with the score ten to two in favor
of the Hubbards.
Wagner. the right fielder of the Colts,
distinguished himself by a splendid
catch of a long fly. Gus. Barget, the
old warhorse of the Colts, sustained his
old time reputation as batter His hit
in the third inning netted him a two
bagger and brought in two runs.
Hill was too strong for the Colts and
it was due to his work that the game
was won by the Hubbards. The game
was marked by wrangling all the way
through and the contest was spoiled
from a spectators standpoint by this
feature.
The umpire, Roy McCooI, himself an
old time ball player. gave general sat
isfaction except when Eder took excep-
ton to his rulings Eder was very
angry and emphasized his dislike of a
ruling by throwing the ball at the UNI
pire.
There was the usual Sunday crowd
and the game was interesting at times.

said to be so much better than any
which have yet been devised, that 1T

Hobart Ind, June 15.-Returning
from fishing trip and TRAPPED on the
2O0-foot Nickel Plate trestle over Deep
river with passenger train bearing
down upon them, John Hale, aged 46,
and his son, Edward, aged 16 made a
frantic effort to escape. They both ran
over the ties for some distance ahead
of the engine in a hopeless effort TO
reach the end of the trestle, the boy
finally jumping to the ground ten feet
below and saving his life, while the
father. who fell repeatedly and was so
terror-stricken that he did not know
what he was doing. was finally ground
beneath the wheels of the engine and
killed.
The accident happened late yester-
day afternoon when the passenger
train which leaves Hammond at 1925
and is due in Hobart at 3.53 went rush

There is ascurve just before the trestle
is reached and when Engineer Edward
Wolf rounded it he saw the man and
boy making a wild scramble to reach
the other end of the bridge.
Before the engineer saw the trapped
men on the bridge he was upon them
and unable to stop. He saw the boy
run a short distance and then leap to
the ground below. He saw the terror
on the face Of the father as he looked
around and saw the engine upon him.
Then the old man fell, and the pres
ence of mind which had saved the boy
was no longer of avail to the father
The engine struck him, carried him a
short distance, knocked him in front
of the wheels and in an instant the
whole train had passed over his pros
trate form, and both legs and an arm
were cut off. 1t was found later that
Hale's skull had been fractured and

SLASHES BROTHER
WITH HIS KNIFE
Fulda Brothers Living on
North Side Create a
Big Disturbance.

With an artery in his left arm sew
cred and blood gushing from the
wound, Ignatz Fulda ran from his home
at S11 Johnson street yesterday crying
that his brother, John, had tried to
kill him and the scandalized neigh
borhood really believed that such was
the case.
1t was a sensational scene. Ignatz
and John are two brothers, and the
exact cause of the trouble or the events
that lead up to it are not known to
the police.
Party n Great Affair.
There was party at the Ignatz
Fulda house and there was much beer
drinking. Indeed several of the guests
are said to have been half-seas over
before the foundation was one-fourth
over.
Before the party, the two brothers,
Fulda-John being one of the honored
guests, were so intimate that you
couldn't put a knife between them, but
towards the end of the celebration, 1t
was neces sary to use a knife to get
them apart.
Frightened by the noise and angry

John wasn't satisfied, however, with
puncturing brother Ignatz.
AS he ran out of the house he was
followed by Mrs. Ingotz, who tried tc
intercept him and keep him from es-

with the screaming woman in close

The proprietor of the place walked

the two to go their way.
