Commission.
Madison.-G Gov. James Q. Davidson sent
his message to the state legislature
which convened in biennial session on
"Wednesday. The message complete makes
about 5000 words and covers thoroughly
the various state interests. BY far the
most important part of the message is
that portion devoted to taxation laws
and public utilities.
After commenting on the prevailing
general prosperity within the state" the
governor goes on to give an itemized
financial statement of the funds Of the
state, which total $742, 2,39l while the trust
funds of the state, divided among the
school fund, the university fund, the ag-
rjcultural fund and the normal school
fund, make a total of 81, ,321 IS. The
estimate of revenues is as follows:

DISTRESSING RAILROAD sMAsHUP
An Engineer Killed, One Brakeman Seri.
ously Injured and Rolling Stock
Greatly Damaged.

A most distressing railroad accident
happened at Whitson Junction last Fri
day morning, and it is miracle that
not more than one life was sacrificed.
The i,.netion is near Cobb and where
| the Mineral Point & Northern track
crosses the Northwestern. The Nj. p.
& N. train out of Highland had reached
there. and while in wait for the west
bound passenger, the train force under
took to do some required switching,
being impressed through some source
that there was ample opportunity, not
withstanding the use of the Northwest
ern main track was necessary in order
to accomplish the same.
AS in most accidents of this kind
there was a mistake on the part of
somebody. Almost Immediately after
the Northern engine had been run onto
said main track and was backing up
westerly two cars of ore, along came a
west bound Northwestern freight, a
double header of about thirty-fve cars.
It whistled to announce its presence
but came so rapidly there was no posi-
ole chance fcr the Northern engine with
it's two cars to got out of the way, al
though moving in the same direction.
The collision, which happened about
300 yards east of the crossing, was ter
rife. The second engine of the double
header was completely reversed and its
engineer, Andrew Gleason, instantly
killed. A brakeman on the Northwest
ern named 0'Connel was seriously in
iured and was taken to- the hospital in
Madison. Latest reports are to the eff
feet that he is improving. Both of the
Northwestern fremen were slightly in
jured The crew on the M. p. & N.
mysteriously escaped any bodily harm
whatever All three engines were
more or less smashed, those Of the
Northwestern being almost completely
wrecked Damage to other rolling
stock and track was slight.
Mr.. Gleason, the dead engineer, was
of Galena and had been in the employ
of The Northwestern company for years
He was about 35 years old and leaves a
fsSily of five children.

HOLMES


Mrs. Christiana Holmes died at her
home in this city Monday evening, Feb.
8. Had she lived two days longer she
would have been IS years old
Mrs. Holmes, whose maiden name
was James, came to Mineral Point in
early life. In 1852 she was united in
marriage TO Charles Holmes, who pre-
coded her to the grave several years
ago. OF this union three sons and one
daughter survived. w, Edward and
Henry and Miss Millicent all of whom
reside in this city, and were ever on
hand to comfort their beloved mother
during her sickness.
Throughout her long career in Miner
al Point Mrs. Holmes ever commanded
the respect and love of the entire com
munity, wherein she is readily and I'M
erringly estimated as womanly woman.
Neither trials nor adversities caused
her to swerye from duty which she day
by day entered upon with spirit of
cbeerfulness that radiated happiness
and contentment. Herlife was bless
