BY vote of 30 to 5 the county
board turned down the $4,000 Prairie
du Sac bridge proposition. TAe ad
vice of District Attorney Bogue was
that the appropriation be not made.
That officer was requested and author
lied to take such steps as may become
necessary to defend any action which
may be brought to enforce payment of
any money by Columbia county TO
assist in building the bridge in ques-e
ton under the present status of the
law ana fact. The district attorney
doubted that the board had power to
vote bonds as the new bridge law is
written. That the end of the pro-
posed bridge was so near the Dane
county line and that the structure
would benefit but few people of Co.
Iumbia county were given as some OF
the reasons for the adverse vote.
The five supervisors who voted
against refusal OF aid to the Prairie du
Sac bridge were Bonham of West
Point, Caldwell of Lodi village, Rey-
nolds of Lodi town, Nc MILAN of Ar
lington and Towers of Caledonia.

FATAL ACCIDENT TO FOR.
MER RESERVATION PEOPLE

A fatal accident occurred ir
Missoula last Saturday near the
cemetery, in which former res.
ervation people figured and re-
suited in the death of Mrs. Jo-
seph Zanders, aged 65, and the
mangling of several others.
While returning to the city
from the services at the ceme-
terry, surrey containing Mr.. and
Mrs. Joseph Zanders, their
daughter Mrs. Ernest Marin, and
Miss Pearl Carr and Earl Carr,
grandchildren, was struck by the
Northern Pacific Couer d'Alene
train and the former suffered a
concussion of the brain, resulting
in her death. Mrs. Marin had
her right arm cut off above the
elbow and a scalp wound, be-
sides bruises; Miss Pearl Carr,
aged 13 years, right leg cut off
above the knee, two fingers cut
off the right hand and a severe
scalp wound; Joseph Zanders,
aged IS, lacerated right ear;
Earl Carr, aged s, face scratched.
The Zanders, with their daugh-
ter, Mrs. Marin, and two grand
children, Pearl and Earl Carr,
were picking their way through
the crowd in a family surrey.
Mr.. Marin was walking a few
yards in front of them. Mr..
Marin crossed the tracks, just in
front of the special cemetery
train, and Mr.. Zanders followed
with the surrey. AS the horse
set his foot on the farther track
the Couer d'Alene train hurtled
out from behind the special. Mr..
Zanders tried to pull back but it
was too late. The engine struck
the horse squarely and grazed
the surrey in such a way that it
was thrown on one side and in
toward the train, the three
women falling directly under the

GROVE
THURSDAY, JUNE IS

1t has been finally decided to
hold the Farmers picnic in Pied
alue's Grove, the same place the
last two annual picnics have been
held. At the time of going to
press last week it had not been
decided definitely, but later ar
rangements have been made.
The committee in charge has
sent Gov. S. V. Stewart an in
vitation to be one of the speakers
of the day but up to this time no
answer has been received from
him and it cannot be stated with
certainty whether he will accept
or not. The people here would
be pleased to have the governor
make us a speech on that day,
and hopes are entertained that
he will.
Others will be invited also to
make short addresses and there
will be program of such inter-
est as to attract a large crowd
here on that day. The sport will
be similar to last year and some
good ball teams are expected to
furnish amusement in this line.
There is a strong probability that
Poison will furnish one of the
teams, but the other one has not
been decided for a certainty. 1t
may be that the Farmers club
will be organized with sufficient
strength to offer the Poison boys
game worth seeing.
With Roman having the Farm
ers' picnic so near the Fourth of
July, it is not expected that this
town will hold a celebration this
year, but leave it to surrounding
towns to do the honors. Make
arrangements then to come to
Roman on June Is.

an ascot tie of elephants breath

The little girl, sitting in the mid

right leg and the fingers of her
right hand on the rails. Mrs.
Marin's right arm fell under the

The injured were taken at once
to the Northern Pacific hospital

examination reported Mrs. Zan-

LIGHTNING STRIKES the
4. R. LARSON RESIDENCE

During the heavy rain storm
which passed over this section
last Monday evening the light
ming struck the H. R. Larson
residence two miles north of
town and demolished the kitchen
chimney, tore up the roof in sew
eral places and ripped the siding
off the house. A wire clothes
line was attached to the corner
of the building and from there
was fastened to two posts set in
the rear, and the lightning fol-
lowed the wire and splintered
each of the posts.
Mrs. Larson had supper just
ready to take from the stove
and the shock knocked her down
and covered the cooking meal
with SCOT. While she was not
injured her escape is miraculous
and she is not anxious for another
so close as escape. The damage
to the house is covered by in
surance, Mr.. Larson having only
last week taken out fire and
lightning insurance. He evil
IDENTIFY had the right hunch when
he placed the insurance. F. j.
White went out there Tuesday
morning and adjusted the loss.
Word was received later in the
week that lightning struck the
house occupied by B. P. Trosper
and family northeast of town on
the same day, setting fire to the
house and throwing Mr.. Trosper
out and onto the ground, where
he finally came to himself and
found the house on fire. After
a valiant effort the flames were
extinguished and the damage
was only slight.
Luckily for both families no
one was injured even though
some property damage was
caused. The thunder storm was
most severe after it had passed
over the town of Roman and an
incessant rumbling of thunder
was kept up a long time. The
lightning was about as severe as
has been witnessed here in years
and it is a wonder more houses
and stock were not struck than
has been reported.
