LabOreT Injured
By Dynamite

Steve Madagno, laborer in
the construction gang on the
Milwaukee railroad was badly in
jured in an accident yesterday
near Avery. He was holding a
stick of dynamite in his hand
when it exploded. His right
hand was torn off as was a por-
tion of his right ear and he was
badly cut about the face.
One eye was completely des-
troyed and the other injured. The
concussion shattered both ear
drums and if he survives he will
be totally deaf and blind in one
eye and possibly both. He was
alive this morning but it is con-
sidered doubtful if he will re-
cover. He was brought to this
city and taken to the st. Maries
hospital
He is a single man about
about twenty years of age anc
nothing is known about his rel
atives.

a half interest i'm this land.
This looked good and she told
him to call and talk il over with
her husband. He did so with
The result that she gave Nc Gill
vary a check for Si75, he agree
ing that he would give her a deed
for a half interest in the land.
He said that it might be a few
days before he could make the
trade but that he would give her
The deed or The money back
within two weeks.
hi sc harged that he said TO
that the sudden death of Mrs.
Thomas showed The uncertainty
of life and that as he might die
before the two weeks were up and
ne could secure the deed he would
give them a note for the amount
SO that if anything happened to
him they would have no trouble
.in getting their money back from
his estate.
The evidence further showed
That he made no attempt to Sc
cure any land but used the mon
ey to pay a number of longstand-
ing bills which he owed.
The case was called again yes
ltorday afternoon and The defend-
ant given an opportunity to put
in a defense but gave no testi-
mony i'm his own behalf. His
attorney moved that he be dis
charged on the ground that no
crime of embezzlement had been
committed, clamng that McGil-
vary had simply borrowed the
money from Mrs. Lanlzy and had
given his note in payment, but
he offered no evidence i'm support
lof this contention
The attorneys spent the after
moon in arguing the case anC
submitted a number of aulhori-
ties and at the request of The de-
fendants attorney Justice Schultz
continued the ease until this
morning to take the time to ex-
famine the authorities cited.
( When the case was again call
led this morning Justice Schult,
lannounced his decision TO bint
I lMcGivary over to The dislric
lcouri for trial. His bonds were
fixed at three hundred dollars.

is interested in he stated that
work on the tunnels had been 60

winter and that they will be COM
pleted in about two months but
he did not believe the road would

Mr. Braderick brought up the
question of President Wilson s

the country needed the ships very
much at this time and that he
thought that the bill should pass
