Howard Democrat: Gus Cornelysen
Of Madison the jolly good -natured,
general agent of the international
Harvester Co., and who makes Howard
about every week and is we'll known
to most of d people, sprung a new
one on us the other day. He said that
a friend of his at Sioux Falls had in-
vented an electric fan that was about
the slickest thing along that line he
had aver heard of. During one of the
hottest nights last week the fellow
turned on his fan after he had retired
and when he awoke the next morning
a pitcher of water standing near was
found to be frozen solid. Now, we
have known Gus for about "a years
and can vouch for his veracity, in fact
we have always held him to be a second
George Washington, but must say that
our faith in him received somewhat of
a setback when he told us this one
still be sticks to it that it is the truth,
and we leave 1t to those who know Gus
to be the judge-we think its a darned

Portland, Ore. His text was Isaiah
49:1. His theme was in keeping with
the subject of the afternoon-The
Christian ministry: The call of the
minister, The preparation of the min
lister, The service of the minister.
The choir of the local church under
the direction of Mr.. Meyer rendered
delightful singing. The quartette of
ministers also took part.
Rev. G. Bender, missionary from
KaInerun, West Africa, was the last
speaker. He spoke of the development
of the work in his field. In 1900
when he first entered on his mission
airy work there were but two work
ers, now there are so. There were
300 converts, now there are 5000.
The receipts of the nilsson were at that
time $40, 600 annually. now they are
$50, 600. 1t was pathetic to hear HIM
tell of his meeting with his children
who were separated from him 80 long
and the thought of leaving them again
brought tears to his eyes.
1t was after ten o'clock when the
meeting came to a close. The great
hall was packed. The acoustics of
the gymnasium is perfect, which is a
delight both to the speaker and the
hearers.
Educational work will be contin-
ued today.

ENGINEER BLAMED
FOR CORNING WRECK
Failure to Observe Signals
Costs Forty Lives and
Many Injuries

Albany, N. Y, January 10.-1he engi-
neer had been drinking the night before
and had slept less than three hours, hence
the wreck on the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western railroad at Corning, n. Y,
last Independence day in which 40 persons
lost their lives and 75 others were injured.
The state public service commission so
declared today after a careful investiga-
ton.
William II. Schroeder, the engineer thus
accused, was indicted for manslaughter.
but never brought to trial, the indict-
ment being dismissed upon motion of the
district attorney.
The primary cause of the wreck -
reads the commissions report. was the
entire failure of Engineer Schroeder to
observe signals. The train into which he
ran was protected by a full stop signal
go feet east of the rear of the train, by
q fiagman 2550 feet east and by a caution
signal nearly $500 feet east. All three
signals We're disregarded.'
The investigation developed that the
engineer had disregarded the duty of
taking proper rest before attempting the
acknowledged drinking during the even
ing before the accident.
The action of the engineer should be
considered as much an offense against
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers, of which he Is a member, as it is
against the railway and the public"
