LUCE LINE WILL MAKE A Squirt
Will Reach Hutchinson and Perhaps
Cedar Mills Before End Of
Present Year.

Present Year.
All doubt as to the plans of the Luce
Line so far as Hutchinson is concern
ed has been dispelled. Luce Line
cars will be running into Hutchinson,
giving the city it's third railway, be-
fore January l, next at the longest
probably within two months.
The Leader speaks by the card
when it says that grading will be
completed between Silver Lake and
Winsted within two weeks and within
three weeks the work of laying rails
from Winsted towards Hutchinson
will be well under way.
Weather alone may interfere with
this work, for all of which the contract
is let. AS fast as grading work is fin
ished from Winsted to Hutchinson the
crews will be shifted west of Hutch.
inson and possibly the Meeker county
Cedar Mills township line will be
crossed this year. The line through
Acoma runs a short distance northeast
of the store. Ten elevating graders,
ITS horses and so men distributed
among five camps are hustling opera
tons east Of Silver Lake.
Hutchinson is throbbing enjoyably
| with excitement incidental to a rail-
| road building in. Balduc Bros, and
H. F. Winter have their camp located
| on the Hans Jensen farm across the
| river east from the city and it is a
/ model camp OF seven tents with cooks,
sleeping equipments, kitchen, stables,
etc. The outfit came in on the G. N.
Ry. on ten cars. The steam Shovel
which will chaw the dirt out of an IL
foot cut east of the city is being I'M
loaded at the east end of the Great
Northern bridge and from there will
get to the right of way half mile on
temporary track Of it's own.
The Luce Line depot site in Hutch
inson is ideal. The lot across the
street from the mill has been pur-
| chased Of H. H. Ames, the railroad to
cross Main street at grade level. The
German Baptist church and parsonage
and possibly the Thos. Pitts residence
will have to move to make way for
the new railway.
| Besides the big steam shovel Bal
due Bros. and Winter will work IT
horses and 81 men on their three mile
contract east from Hutchinson city.
The Messrs. Luce will submit to the
county board a proposition for put
ting in joint cement roadway cross
ing at the north end of Otter Lake.
The board has already let the contract
for building a roadway to Jens JUL
at $4,000, but as it will be paralleled
by the Luce Line tracks it would seem
to be practical that the two be made
! one piece Of architecture.
In passing it may be said that
, Hutchinson welcomes the Luce Line
It's coming spells added growth, pro-
gress and population for the city. And
in completing the line here the
Messrs. Luce father and son, keep to
the letter the pledge they gave our
| citizens Leader.

The suggestion we made in these
columns last week that the public
schools be kept open all the year
seems to have struck a popular chord
with good many of our citizens who
told us that the plan was most ex-
cellent one. Three months of idle
ness every year is a pure waste of
time for If our youths could be kept
in school these months they could
leave school at least two years earlier.
The Clara City schools might try the
plan and thus set an example to other
towns of the state. It would be quite
an advertisement for Clara City to say
the least.-Clara City Herald.

Stay Home for a Good Time.


Those who attended the Speedway
races last Saturday report that the az
fair was a disappointment. The track
was rough and uneven and the fastest
and therefore most delicate cars were
put out Of commission before the rae
es had more than fairly started. The
speed attained by the fastest driver
was about 81 miles per hour, far short
OF the extravagant claims made in the
advertising. The attendance was dis
appointing, large sections of the
bleachers being unoccupied. Refresh.
ment vendors charged exhoribant pric-
es; pop sold at quarter a bottle and
a ten cent Lunch Dawson prices
went for dollar. Moral, If you want
a really good time, spend your money

An Unknown Man Shot to Death In a
Box Car Tuesday Night. Another
Badly Wounded


Box Car Tuesday Night. Another
Badly Wounded.
An unknown man was shot to death
In an empty box car which stood near
the Farmers Elevator Tuesday night
and instantly killed. After the deed
was committed his assailants escaped
In the darkness and so far have not
been captured.
A transient by the name of Richard
Bielke who had arrived from Abbots-
ford, Wis, the day before was sleeping
in the box car at the time and was
aroused when some one tried to pull
clothes. The robbers hit him over
the head, or at least this is the story
he tells, but in the scuffle he managed
to get out Of the car and in doing so
sustained badly wrenched ankle.
His cries awoke G. H. Strong in the
Commercial Hotel and he got up and
gave the alarm. This happened about
1880.
When Strong and others appeared
on the scene, Belize had dragged him.
self away from the box car and was
all bloody caused by the blows of his
assailants and he told them what had
happened. The marshall and others
went back to the box car and there
discovered a dead man who had just
expired. A bullet from % canbre
revolver had entered above the right
eye and had gone out back of his head
instantly. A loaded 80 calibre re-
v0lver was found on the side of his
body and the corner of his coat thrown
over it. A bag of cartridges, fash
light, skeleton key and song book
of the l. w. w. was found on his per-
son but no money and nothing what
ever as to his naturalization.
The dead man appeared to be about
forty years old, clean shaver and no
marks of any kind on his body. He
had an abnormal large head and in
appearance looked Like a criminal or
convict. The theory advanced, and
If Bielke's story is true, that the dead
man with his pals came in the car to
rob Bielke and in the general scuffle
the dead man was shot by one of his
own companions. Bielke had $2.40 on
his person which the robbers failed
to get. He was taken to the lookup
where his wounds we're dressed and
q hunt begun for the robbers. The
night trains were watched but no
strange characters got on. The rob-
bers either went north or south. Will.
mar and other near by towns were
not notified till the next morning and
by this time the robbers were perhaps
miles away.
The sheriff, county attorney and
coroner Smith came over in the fore
noon and collected what evidence they
could. An inquest was held and the
verdict of the jury was that the de-
ceased was killed by parties unknown.
The dead man was taken to the under
taking establishment of the Clara City
Mercantile Co. and there dressed for
burial. He was buried the same day
In the pOtter's field. Before his bur-
1al q picture was taken of his features
and this will be sent to the rogue's
gallery where it is hoped it may be
identified. Sheriff Borgendale thinks
he has seen the man before but is not
sure. Bielke was released.-Clara
City Herald.
