A SERIOUS ACCIDENT

Peter Johnson and Ole Landro, of
Benville, were the victims of not
only a serious but an expensive aC-
cldent the past week. Last week
they started from the DuChamp
place, south of Germantown, to
bring a gasoline blowing outfit to
their home about I miles northeast
OF this place, Everything went
well as they were on ditch sraae
no. 70 for 3 miles then crossed
north on branch to No. 90, then
east to the road leading north to
Grygla. Then for about one-half
mile north in the town of Esplee..
from No. 20 to the end Of the next
grade that no ditch has been dug
and is very bad place. when they
struck this, the engine went down.
stuck, last Saturday. AS a last re-
sort capstan and cable were Sc
cured and one horse hitched to the
sweep. A connection broke and the
sweep flew back striking him and
while no bones were broken he was
badly bruised and hardly able to
walk. The connection was fixed
and the horse started again. sud-
denly the sweep broke and the lead
end flew back striking the horse on
the front leg hard enough to smash
the bones below the knee, the horse
was Immediately shot. The strain
on the engine was so hard that a
large drive cog wheel was broken
before the engine was gotten out,
after four days hard work in the
mud, and all for the lack of a few
days, perhaps three, of good road
work. The loss is one horse we'll
worth S175, broken wheel costing
$40, badly injured man and the
loss by number of men of four
days each.
This short piece of bad road is
the only place for SO miles that
there is not a high grade that is
fine. when any road is good, and
there is not another road around
here that is travelled as much as
this as all the traffic for many
miles north and east must cross
this road to get to the main supply
town, Thief River Falls. This mud
hole is or the main road in the
town Of Esplee and why the town
board, with plenty of money in the
treasury doesn't fix it, no one can
tell. It is disgrave to the town
and an insult to the settlers. One
of the N. w. Drainage Co.'s dredges
donated the digging for quite dis
tance last fall, for which they got
nothing, and it was hard job to
get get that leveled. 1t is hoped
that under the new road law, the
town will be compelled to ix it, if
they don't legal proceedings are Ii
able to follow.-Gry Eagle.

SCHOOL HOUSE
WAS BuRCLAR|zED:

May 2l-When Ellen E. Johnson
who teaches in the south Wright
school, district No. 138 came to her
school house this morning, she was
surprised to find the door unlocked
and a fire made up in the stove.
Looking around more closely, she
discovered that some one had evil
IDENTIFY been there and made himself
at home. The water pail had been
used to make soup in and some of
it was left. In the water cooler
had been put coffee and on the ia
BILE were small pieces of meat. The
children's drinking cups had also
been used. The unwelcome visitor
or visitors, whoever it could be,
further proved his social rank by
carrying away small sum of mon
ey that was found in pocket book
IN one of the drawers in the teach
er's desk. A suspicious looking
person was seen in the neighbor-
hood last night but no trace was
left from here. But as he was on
foot 1t seems scarcely possible that
he could carry so much grub and
! where the meat, potatoes and coffee
were obtained is still mystery to
he solved.

for the welfare and upbuilding Of
our young city, and served as 4
member Of the school board for a

memory and extending condolences
to the sorrowing family.

FAREWELL RECEPTION .
TO A PIONEER

A farewell reception was tender
cd Mr.. and Mrs. G. S. Hull by "a
large number of their friends and
neighbors, on Saturday evening Of
last week, at Masonic hall. Mr.. w.
f. Powell on behalf of those pres
ent, in fitting words, expressed the
feeling of love and esteem which
the people of Warren entertain to-
ward these departing friends and
old residents, and The general regret
which is felt on account Of their
removal He also called to mind
many remiscenses from pioneer
days, in some of which Mr.. Hull
figured prominently as hunter. In
response Mr.. Hull spoke somewhat
in this fashion: Ladies and Gentle
men: This gathering is very much
pleasing tC me and we shall leave
Warren feeling that we have been
highly hOnored by her citizens, and
The many bright and happy sum-
mers I have whiled away with you
here on northern Minnesota prair-
les is stored away in the archives of
my memory to brighten and cheer
me in my declining years. - My
friends, do not like to dwell on the
dark objects of. life. I always en-
deavor to look at the bright side of
everything and by so doing I am a
better and happier man, and I know
I make others with whom I come in
contact better and happier by so
doing. How we'll the poet has
brought out this thought in the
line. Behind the darkest cloud the
sun is shining.' Follow that thought
little farther and he tells us in
order to keep ever before him the
bright side of life he wears his
clouds inside out. Go with him a
little farther until he drifts into
winter, and he gets me exactly. He
is continually watching for the
''thawy days." - My friends, I
feel this evening, or at least l think
lido; very much as Abraham Lin
coin felt after the farewell recep-
tion given him when he left Spring
field to assume the duties of presi-
dent of the United States. He said:
Nothing in the world will please
me better than to be able to take
you all to the White House. Moth
ing could please me better than to
take you all with me to the old
Wabash, where the tall sycamores
grow. I know that can't be done,
but the memories Of the thirty-two
pleasant summers spent here in
your midst, will 90 with me. and
where I am, my friends will be al
So"
A beautiful gold chain and ma
sonic charm was presented to Mr..
Hull by the friends assembled as a
memento and token of esteem.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hull and son Cor
don departed Monday evening for
Princeton, Ind, where they will
make their home in the future.
They carry with them the love and
5est wishes Of every citizen of this
place. 1t is very likely that Mr..
Hull will be back in the fall for his
usual annual hunt, which he has
not missed once while resident
here and which he intends to keep
UP in the future as long as he is
able to do so. @.'>|
