HURLED FROM AUTO.
Woman Meets Death Near Red Wing
When Automobile Runs OF Road,

Red Wing. = Mrs. Ole Jensen, Sc
years old, was instantly killed in an
auto accident in Roscoe township.
The car was being driven by Oscar
Christopherson and his sister, Mrs. Ed.
Nord, occupied the front seat with
him. Knute Haugen and Mrs. Jensen
were in the rear seat.
The driver was going at twenty
mile-an-hour rate of speed, it is said,
and after going down along grade
crossed a bridge, when Mrs. Jensen
was thrown OF her seat. She was
holding some glass jarssin her hands,
and evidently lost her balance. She
fell across the rear door.
Christopherson looked around and
lost control of the machine, which ran
down steep embankment, striking
two telephone poles which were set
side by side. The impact of the car
broke one pole off near the ground
and splintered the other.
Mrs. Jensen was thrown out and
her neck was broken, death being al
most instantaneous. Mrs. Nord was
thrown against the wind shield, and
her hands and one limb were cut and
bruised. The driver and Mr.. Haugen
were unhurt.
Coroner Gieb and County Attorney
Ericsson made trip to the scene Of
the accident, but deemed no inquest
necessary. H. #

inson explained the error, and. read an
itemized account of the part which had
been omitted. Immediately following

STEER TRAMPLEs ON FARMER.
Jacob Meyers Life Saved by Dog
Which Fought Infatuated Animal.

Red Wing.-Jacob Meyer, a farmer
living two miles southwest of Good
hue, was perhaps fatally injured by
being trampled on and gored by a
young steer. Mr.. Meyer was attacked
while in the barnyard looking after
some stock. A small dog which ac-
companied him barked at and fought
the steer and prevented more serious
injuries.
Mr.. Meyers collar bone was broken,
his spine sprained. and he suffered
several minor bruises.
He was unconscious from 10 o'clock
in the morning until 5 o'clock in the
afternoon, when his family returned
and found him lying in the barnyard.
Physicians were called, and some hope
is entertained for his recovery.

REWARD J D 5 SQ|uG| H
OR. HINES, COUNTY PHYSICIAN,
sTlLLSTRYlNo TO COLLECT
AFTER q YEARS. z
CAPTURED .H0RSE-THIEF IN 1890
Claim Passed Through the Hands Of
.3 Three Judges, but Il Was Never
Paid--Now He Appeals to
Courts to Order Payment.

Minneapolis.-Dr. James Hines has
concluded that it requires more cour-
age and persistency to collect re-
ward from the county of Hennepin
than it does to capture the horse thief
for whom the reward was offered.
DR.. Hines speaks from experience.
for he caught up to and captured the
horse thief in few days and sent him
to the penitentiary; but he has been
after the reward for 81 years and he
has not caught it yet.
But DR.. Hines says that the courage
which enabled him to bring the stealer
OF horse flesh to justice Fl years ago
still lives within him, and he made
q renewed effort to obtain 5000 which
he says the county owes him as re-
ward.
Court Commissioner Retained.
He retained Court Commissioner
Bates as counsel and expert on horse
thief rewards, and Mr.. Bates listened
to the whole thrilling story of how
the horses were stolen, the pursuit,
the capture and the court scene when
the man was sentenced to many years
in Saltwater. .... .. e..
All this was very much like one Of
the melodramic chase scenes from
the Western plains, as depicted by the
moving picture machines.
Then, followed the story of the fruit
less pursuit of the 5000 the county ad-
vertised to pay for the capture of the
thief, whose name is given as William
Hunter. DR.. Hines made application
for the reward in the court of Judge
Seagrave Smith, but the Judge died
before deciding the claim of the val
liant capturer Of the horse thief.
Two More Judges Pass It.
In 1898 DR.. Hines made another ef-
fort before William Lancaster, then
judge, who turned the claim over to
Judge E. M. Johnson, who soon after
retired from Office without rendering
a decision.
Mr.. Bates thinks he can prove his
case at a hearing today set for Aug.
IL. At least Mr.. Bates looks for no
testimony in opposition. The horse
thief has served his term and all
trace of him was lost when he left the
prison. And DR.. Hines, Mr.. Bates
says, is ready to tell in court his
whole thrilling narrative, concluding
with the tale Of his difficulties in max
ing the county settle.
