that in the fight for existence which
has been forced upon Germany by it's
adversaries and announced by them, it
is the sacred duty Of the Imperial gov

KILLED BY AUTO
ACCIDENT RESULTS FATALLY
WHEN HER CARRIAGE IS RUN
DOWN.

Fargo, July 14.-Mrs. Frances
Brown was killed when an automobile
driven by Richard Greuel ran into
carriage in which she was riding.
There were two carriages going

preached one of the teams took fright
and started to run. Mr.. Greuel, who
was driving the car at the time did
not notice the other rig and it being
the first time that he had ever driven
an automobile, probably became ex-
cited, and ran into the other carriage
which contained Mr.. and Mrs. Brown
and some other people. The force of
the impact knocked the rear seat off
of the carriage and injured Mrs.
Brown to such an extent that she iv-
ed only short time. ~
The automobile was owned by "A. F.
