from the wagon while nearing his
home and in the fall his backbone
broke over the third rib. This hap
pened about noon. He was not dis
covered until after four o'clock in
the afternoon, when his son came
home from. school. The boy seeing
the team feeding on a corn shock
thought something had happened
and upon investigation found his
father in the aforesaid condition.
With the assistance Of neighbors he
was carried home and DIR. Cole was
called, who examined the nature of
the injury. The injured is in a para
lyzed condition and but little hope Of
his recovery is entertained.

Swift Ball Games.

The Pv Lands and Gophers played
three fast and scientific games of
ball last week, and the general opin-
ion is that the series was the best
ever played in the city.
Hughes Bros. of St. Peter consti-
tuted the battery the first and last
days, and assisted in winning both
of them, though the last was by a
close Margin to 5. The score the
first day was Z to 2, the visitors ap-
parently not being in their best
form. On the second day, however,
with their all but invincible battery,
the Gophers were not scored upon
during the five innings played,
though three times in rapid success
sion the locals put man around as
far as third base. Kramer pitched
for the Pvs and came short of his
usual record on account of a partial
ly crippled arm. The score stood 8
to 0 in favor of the visitors when it
was called at 2 o'clock on account of
the Governor Johnson memorial ex-
ercises.
A battle royal was on Friday, the
concluding game of the series, the
Hughes brothers again showing
themselves equal to the occasion.
There were plenty of exciting plays
and close decisions, and the visitors
were by no means pleased with the
result-defeat by score of 4 to 5.
The financial returns left no profit
for the locals after paying expenses,
the memorial exercises of Thursday
keeping many away from the field.
