and money toward the success OF
the exposition deserve the earn
est cooperation of all our citizens.

passed by the common councillor
said city, do call upon all those
having store or office windows, 10

all other ways possible in adding
to the pleasure and success OF the
occasion.

HIT BY A CAR;
DEATH FOLLOWS
Charles G. WuIff, Old Resident
of Sears, is Victim Of Acct
dent at Village.
RIGHT LEG IS SEVERED
Conflicting Testimony as to Condition
at Time-Was Walking Along
Track With Lantern.

Charles G. Wulff, aged GA, resi-
dent of Sears, was run over and killed
last evening by one of the Watch
Tower cars at Sears His right leg
cuts and bruises were inflicted on his
left leg and on his face. The loss of
blood resulting from the wounds to-
gether with the shock caused death
about two hours after the accident
Mr.. Wulff, who was on the grand
jury for this term. left the city yes
terday for his home at the old Sears
place in Sears. Several of his friends
tried to induce him to come back to
the city and witness the fireworks on
the river but he replied that as he
was penned up all day he wanted to
have a quiet rest and sleep during the
evening. He stopped in at Luch-
mann's place at Sears, however, and
remained there about 30 minutes. He
took but a few drinks. Then he tool
lantern and started up the street
car tracks for his home Wulff $ son,
who was sitting with several friends
at their home opposite Luch-
mann's place, saw his father going
up the tracks towards home A few
minutes later he saw two street car
men running at full speed get on
board the Milan ear and start off as
fast as the car could go. At the same
time another man ran to Luchmann's.
William Wulff. the son of the dead
man. and his friends thought at once
that something had happened and
they started up the tracks to see what
it was. When half way there they
met a man who told Wulf that his
father was hurt and Wuif hurried
to his side.
Leg Is Cut on.
He found his father lying by the
side of the tracks in the care of the
motorman of the car Wulffs right
leg had been severed at the knee and
severe cuts had been inflicted ON the
other leg and on the face The Milan
car had been rushed for a doctor from
Milan and it returned with DIR. G. H.
Virgins in a very short time The
surgeon aniputated the mashed part
OF the severed limb and stopped the
flow OF blood. The ambulance was
called by the conductor and it arrived
shortly afterwards.
The injured man, who was almost
entirely unconscious, was taken to ST
Anthony's hospital where Drs. Arp OF
Moline and Lachner of this city and
DIR. Virgins completed the amputation
of the leg and redressed the other
injuries The injured man never re
vived after the operation and at Il: 81
he died.

seems that Wulff was intoxicated a
