FATAL ACCIDENT
At HOWARD LAKE
East Bound Mail Train Kills
Two and In jures Others
Last Sunday.

While returning from church last
Sunday at Howard Lake, five members
of the Mclean family, residing near
that place, were run down by east
bound mail train, No. %. The car
riage was smashed to kindling wood,
and the horse killed. A son, Ross,
aged II, was instantly killed, and his
body found in the wreckage of the
buggy with the skull crushed. A
daughter, Elizabeth, aged 6, died while
on the relief train, enroute to st. Paul.
Jean, 10 years old, suffered broken
arm, and internal injuries, and her
condition is serious. Mary, aged 8,
escaped with a few minor injuries,
being slightly cut about the head.
The father, A. D. Mclean, suffered
severe injuries, having both legs brok-
en-. His condition is critical, and it
is not known whether or not he will
live.
The Mclean family had left the
church following the morning worship
and were crossing the railroad tracks
east Of the town, when the accident
happened. - AS the track runs thru a
deep cut in that section they neither
heard nor saw the approaching train
Mr.. Mclean remained conscious af
ter the accident long enough to say
that they were driving thru the cut
and that he didn't think the engine
whistled. Also that the train was trav
cling at least sixty miles an hour. Il
is in thru that section that No. Is
does some of her fastest running, es
pecially when they are a little late as
was the case on Sunday.
The train stopped Immediately ant
took the injured people back to How
ard Lake, where they were given thu
best Of medical aid. A relief trair
| came out from st. Paul and took the
injured to that city for treatment.
The McLeans moved to Howard
Lake last October, coming from Delhi
, MINI. Beside the children in the &C
cident there are four others, and thu
mother, Mrs. Mclean, who was a
! home.

TRACTOR PEOPLE
HAVE OPEN HOUSE
Factory is Inspected by Hun
dredS Of Our WiIlnlar
People.

Yesterday afternoon the Willmar
Tractor Manufacturing Co., opened
their plant to the public and served
refreshments to about three hundred
people who came in response to gen.
eral invitation made. About fifty Of
those calling were farmers, and many
of our business men took this oppor-
tunity of inspecting this industry
which has developed in our city with
out much being said publicly about it.
All expressed their surprise of the
magnitude of the enterprise and the
number Of men busily at work in the
different departments. One Of the
new tractors, built wholly at Willmar,
is now completed, and others will fol-
low in rapid succession. The factory
is we'll equipped with the very latest
machinery and facilities for building
tractors and will have capacity of
one tractor day when running in full
blast. Thirty-three men are now en-
ployed, ana it is expected that more
will be put on shortly. Plans have
been approved for an addition to the
front Of the main building to give
room for the Office. The factory will
then have the appearance Of the cut
shown elsewhere on this page. This
improvement will be made this spring.
This enterprise gives every prom
ise of becoming an important factor
in the industrial development of our
city, and our citizens should give it
their good will and boost for it.
The annual stockholders meeting is
being held this afternoon, and several
stockholders from the Twin Cities are
here.

mems meeting last Monday evening
showing that Willmar is paying an
average of $4,000 per year in insur-

average only $4,000, it would seem
that there is a good deal of ground
for the complaint made thruout the
state that the small towns of Mime

pay the heavier fire losses in the big
