then a new congressman or some 9TH

of these. Representative Edwards
of the Savannah district met one
foreign dipolmat. He did not know
his name, but little later in
the evening he thought he would
introduce his friend, Representative
Willets of New York. He was COM
PEELED to ask the name of the for

he was one of these fellows with a
long string of names which would

Cause of an Accident on the
Northwestern Road.
AUGUST HAAS BADLY INJURED
Ills Skull Fractured and Other Hurts
uSustained, Distres sing Affair Oc-
cured az Janesviiie Today.
From Fridays Daily.

From Fridays Daily
August Haas, section hand on the
Chicago & Northwestern road, was
badly if not fatally njmed this morn.
ing at GAINESVILLE. He and the section
foreman were riding on Il handcar to
their work, at twenty minutes after
seven o'clock, and when just beyond
curve the foreman saw a wild freight
care dashing down the grade upon
them at a speed of twenty miles an
hour. He shouted to Haas to Jump
and leaped from the car himself and
was uninjured
Stopped to Look Behind.
Haas made the mistake of stopping
to look around, as his back was to-
ward the rapidly approaching car. Be
fore he could jump, the handcar was
struck and thrown from the track,
landing on the ground pile of wreck
age. Haas was thrown off with it.
He was picked up unconscious and
taken back to the depot. His skull
was found to be fractured, an elbow
broken, his hip mangled and one ankle
crushed, having been run over. DR..
Taylor of GAINESVILLE attended him, and
the railroad company sent its surgeon
from Waseca on special train to
treat him. At last accounts it was
not known whether he would survive
or not, this depending upon how well
he was able to sustain the shock.
Haas is married man and lives at
GAINESVILLE. His accident has cast a
gloom over the village.
Due to Failure Of Brakes.
The accident was due to the failure
of brakes on a coal car to work as
expected. The way freight engine was
making flying switch with the coal
car, to get around it, but the brake
failed to hold it and being at the
top of a steep grade the car got away
and took a headlong fight down the
hill. 1t struck the hand car just be-
yond curve on the outskirts of the
village, and dashed on for mile be-
fore the rising grade stopped it.
N. n. George of this city was a
spectator Of vthe accident.

MUST PAY TEN DOLLAR FINE
Frank Larrab se's Case Decided BY
the Supreme Court.
From Saturdays Daily.

Frank d. Larrabee, the wellknown
democratic politician of Minneapolis
must pay the fine of SO imposed by
Judge f. F. Waite in police court last
fall when Larrabee was convicted of
driving his automobile on the wrong side
of the street. The state supreme court
has confirmed the decision of Judge
Waite and held valid the ordinance
requiring all vehicles to turn to the
right.
Mr.. Larrabee turned off Hennepin
onto Sixth street and was arrested by
Patrolman Huskins. He fought his case
in police court on the ground that an
ordinance which attempted to keep a
man from driving where he pleased,
when he hindered no one, was illegal.
He also asserted that the police exceed
ed their authority, as he drove but a
short distance on the left side OF the
street
Huskins testified that Larrabee threat
ened to thrash him and the supreme
court held that the defendants con-
duct throughout the incident brought
him within the terms of the ordinance
The ordinance in brief requires driv-
ers of all vehicles to keep to the right
and to pass the center OF street ana
still keep on the right when turning
to the left from one street to another
Exception is made for police lire de-
partment and hospital rigs.
The decision was written by Justice
Jagoard. Justice Lewis dissented.

children in school on the part of the
parents. At his request, the state
truant officer would be in the city
next week, at the opening of the
spring term, and would bring the par
ents to proper consideration of the
matter. He didn't know whether ar
rests would be necessary.
The bills were allowed.
Mrs. Smith brought up the matter
of the annual manual training exhi-
bit, and the matter was referred to
the school committee with power to
act.
Mrs. Koke brought up the matter
of the purchase by the board of needles
and thread for the sewing where the
girls are too poor to furnish them
themselves. She said that teachers
had been paying for it. Mr.. Davies
moved that SIS be placed in the hands
of the school committee for use in such
cases, but several members objected on
the ground that if material was bought
for one it ought to be bought for all.
The motion was withdrawn after Mrs.
Koke had stated that she would pay
the expense in the Franklin school, and
Mr.. Davies had said that he would do
il at the Union.
Cannot Be Dispensed With.
Mr.. Scherer suggested that the SER
vices of the truant officer be dispensed
with during the balance of the school
year.
Superintendent Mcconnell was oppOs-
ed to this. He said that this year
there has been less unexcused absence
than four four years, because of the
truant officers work. 1t keeps a class
in school that has given trouble here
tofore. This was a class that did not
like to be classed among the ordinary
truants, and attended regularly so as
not TO be so classed. 1t was a ques-
tion of moral support of the schools,
and the truant officer ought to be re-
tanned nine months in the year. This
is done elsewhere. The board would
make a great mistake to let him go.
