cue him.
He carried the boy to the shore
and then discovered that he had cut
his hand quite badly while breaking
the ice. He changed his clothes and
then went out on his train, which
had been stopped by n of the brake
men who had noticed him go. The
boy was all right as DON as he had
been taken home and changed his
clothes.
The story of the rescue would
never have been known had it been
left to Mr.. Peterson, who did not
even tell how he cut his hand when
he reported that his train would be
late getting out of Mitchell. He is a
quiet, modest sort of man, the kind
for whom the Carnegie medal seems
especially designed.

ESCAPE
PlaSterer Falls Four Stories at Wa
tertown and Lives.

WATERFOWL, Dec. 2.-Suffering ter
ribly from a serious fracture of his
leg, and internal injuries that caused
excruciating pain and may still prove
| grave, Fred Holde, a plasterer, drag
ged himself inch by inch up a flight
of stairs over a big pile of lumber
and raised himself to the telephone
in the new Luther hospital, where he
summoned a doctor and an ambu-
lance and then fell back exhausted.
He had fallen down the elevator
shaft of the new hospital from the
fourth floor and struck on the base
ment cement while alone in the
building.
Mr.. Holde with his partner has
been engaged for the last several
days in plastering the new hospital.
To-day he had planned to go to an
other town to do some work. About
7 o'clock last evening he got in his
automobile to get tools that he would
need today and that was the last any
one heard of him until his summons
for aid came four hours later.
The hospital was dark and Mr..
Holde was collecting his tools on the
fourth floor when the telephone rang
below. Thinking that his partner
might be calling him to bring more
articles than they had planned to get,
Mr.. Holde started at a rapid pace
down the hall, intending to go down
stairs to answer the phone. The ele-
vator shaft and the stairway open

and stepped into the elevator shaft
and off into space.
AS nearly as can be told. Mr.
Holde laid unconscious on the base
ment floor for three hours after his
fall, as it was nearly IL O'Clock when
he regained consciousness. There
was no way to summon help but &c
reach the telephone on the floor
above, so despite injuries after a fall
that might have caused his death
Mr.. Holde pluckily began his tortuous
| journey to the telephone.
DR.. III. j. Bartron and the ambu-
lance men made a hurry up run tC
| the hospital. where they were guided
to the injured man by his calls Il
them. Due to his long wait without
medical attention and the necessity
of dragging himself upstairs to the
telephone without aid, Mr.. Holde was
in a serious condition from the SHOCK
resulting from his fall when he
reached the Watertown sanitarium
This morning. however. his condition
is somewhat improved and ii i:
hoped that his internal injuries may
not prove as serious as they seemed
at first when taking into considera-
ton the hight from which he fell
Outside of bruises and internal in.
%juries, Mr.. Holde's leg was badly
fractured above the knee. No other
bones were broken.

SAVES DROWNING BOY
Conductor at Mitchell Leaves His
Train to Make Rescue.

Mitchell, Dec. 2.-Only the agility
and presence of mind of John c.. Pet
erson of Sanborn. Ia, a conductor on
Milwaukee freight trains running be-
tween that city and Mitchell, saved
the life of Otto Scheurenbrand. the
l0-year-old son of Adolf Scheuren-
brand. The accident happened late
last Friday afternoon.
Mr.. Peterson was standing on top
OF a freight car as his train was pull
ing out of the Milwaukee yards about
5 o'clock in the afternoon. He hap
pened to glance towards the pond
south of the yards and saw the
Scheurenbrand lad skate into soft ice
and go underneath.
The conductor ran to the ladder
and was off the car and running to
the pond in less time than it takes
TO tell the story. He started to walk
over the ice, but ii gave way and he
was forced to walk in the chilling
water up to his waist to reach the
drowning boy. The lad had gone
under the ice which was fairly thick
and Mr.. Peterson had to break /,

Chicago, Dec. 2.-When the arbi-

ninety-eight western railroads and

here before a board appointed under
the Newlands act, a representative
was sent out to prove that every one
of their sixteen demands, with two
exceptions of a comparatively minor
nature, are in actual existence or
some roads, although no one road
has granted all of them.
OF the six a~rbitrators, two were APP
pointed by the roads, two by the men
and two-Judge Peter c. Pritchard
and Charles Nagel-by the govern
