ninety days, but the sentence was
suspended to allow him to return to
work. The former editor had been in

was married in that country to
Johanna Anderson in 1885, In the
spring of 1870, with his wife, he came
to the, United States and the same
year settled on a homestead in Santi-
ago, Sherburne county. He lived
there until two years ago, when he re-
tired from his labors and moved to
Princeton. His wife died on Novem-

on May IA, 1881, to Nettie Thompson

Mr.. Wicktor experienced all the
hardships of the early settler when be

country which was then no better than
a wilderness, but, being man of de-
termination, he-plodded industriously
Eatong, kept his should er-to~theew wheel

tive work he was not, however,
destined to long enjoy them. He was
a man of honor-he believed in the
golden rule-and in the community
where he lived he knew not an enemy.
AS a husband and father he was kind
and liberal to a fault. That he was
highly esteemed was shown by the
large number of neighbors and friends
who followed his remains to their last
resting place.

 Long after it was believed that all dead had-Deen taken from the debris, wreckers found today two bodies in the erunIpled sleeper, literally cut to pieces. Identification of these is i'm. possible.
 Although both the diner and sleep CT were of steel. the former sheared tne upper portion of the sleeper from the floor as if t were cardboard. In some manner the diners floor be- came elevated slightly above that of the sleeper's in the impact, and with the force of section No. 2s en- zine behind. the sleeper was iammed along fully twenty-five feet, while the diner, as a gigantic knife, cut away the upper structure.
 Responsibility for the wreck is not determined definitely. but 1t is said to rest between the operator al Or tonviile Junction, who. it is asserted should not have permitted the silk train to enter the block, and to the operator who it is said, failed to lift stop signal for the flyer, and the nagman of the flyer. who, it is said. failed to protect the rear of his train after it stopped at the block.
