FOUR YEAR OLD IS
CRIPPLED FOR LIFE
LITTLE CHILDREN MEET WITH
n. DREADFUL ACCIDENT ON
RAILROAD.
ONE LOSES LEG AND ANOTHER
HAS SCALP WOUNDS. STRUCK
.z2
BY CAR.

Another most regrettable accident
occurred last week which resulted in
making cripple of very young lad,
the son of Jos. Polta an employee of the
city light plant. The victim of the acct
dent, little. Johnny Polta, was run over
by freight car and his right leg was So
badly crushed that it was necessary to
amputate the member above the knee and
the lad will have to go on crutches or
wear an artificial limb all his life Two
brothers narrowly escaped injury at the
same time.
The Polta family lives on the east side
Of the railroad tracks and the three little
boys ranging in age from four to seven
years had been sent uptown by their
mother. They had stopped at the light
station for little while to see their
father and an employe of the M. & St..
Rwy. Co. who was guarding the crossing
while the switch engine was working
cars near the depot had noticed the
little lads sitting on the steps at the light
station. His duties took his attention
from the little fellows as the string of
cars was making flying switch and the
next thing he knew he saw the children
crawling out from under the moving cars.
It is assumed that the boys wished to
cross the track and started around the
end of the car which was standing on
the crossing. Just as they were in the
middle OF the track the switch engine
pushed up several cars to make coupling
with the standing car and the youngsters
were in the way as the car was shot for
ward. All were knocked down and the
two older boys were fortunate enough
to get out of the way of the grinding
wheels but the littlest one who was
caught under the car had his right leg
crushed to a pulp, One of the other
boys received a scalp wound but it was
not serious.
The injured child was Immediately
taken to the Loretto Hospital where it
was necessary to amputate Immediately.
He is recovering nicely from the shock
and will no doubt survive.
The accident recalls to mind the one
sustained by the Amann boy few years
ago. The action brought against the
M. & St. L. for damages in that case was
only this year finally settled when the
parents of the lad got verdict against
the Company, after the case was taken
to the higher court.

YOUNG ANDERSON BOUND OVER
TO AWAIT ACTION OF GRAND
JURY.
CASE AGAINST HIM LOOKS BAD,
FATHER CLAIMS ROBBERY
WAS MOTIVE.

AdOlpn, the l5-year-Old son OF GuStaf
Anderson of Severance, Sibley County,
was bound over to await the action of the
grand jury on the charge of assault in the
first degree.
Young Anderson is the Sibley County
prisoner who has been held at the Brown
County jail for the past two months
awaiting his hearing on the charge of
attempted patricide. Anderson claimed,
it will be remembered that his father had
attempted suicide and that when he
failed in his attempt, laid the blame on
him, Adolph.
On the seventh day of last June Gustaf
Anderson was found in his corn field
with two bullet wounds, the one an inch
to the right of his nose and an inch and a
half below his right eye and the other
an inch below his right temple. Some
time after the son was taken in custody
on suspicion and has since languished in
jail awaiting the recovery of his father
to appear in court. While the elderly
gentleman has made a miraculous re-
covery his right side is still paralyzed
and he has difficulty in speaking.
The hearing was held in Winthrop
Monday afternoon in the Winthrop city
hall building and the room was packed
with people who had congregated to
hear the testimony.
Gustaf Anderson the plaintiff was the
first witness called. He gave testimony
to the effect that his son, Adolph, who
was at work with him in the corn field
at the time of the alleged crime deliber-
ately walked toward him and when with
in distance of 6 feet removed concealed
weapon, 22-calibre rifle and shot him,
then reloaded his rifle and shot him
second time. He further stated that his
son then took from his person a pocket
book containing about $50 in cash.
DR.. Thauwald of Gibbon, was called
by the state and told of the character
of the bullet wounds on the person of
Mr.. Anderson, he having been called to
the Anderson home to treat the wounded
man. Both bullets which entered Ander-
sons body took a downward course and
the doctor stated on the witness stand
that it was possible for bullets OF such
small calibre to take the course which
they did. Mr.. Anderson gave testimony
that he was standing erect at the time
his son is alleged to have done the
shooting.
Other witness were called in behalf of
the state and gave testimony of remarks
they had heard the boy make after the
affair had taken place.
The hearing was held before Justice
Stresemann. The charge which has been
brought against the defendant is assault
in the first degree. The justice court
has no jurisdiction to grant bonds for a
charge of this character but it remains
discretionary with the district Judge to
do so or not.
The boy was remanded to the county
jail at New Ulm.

ANOTHER BENEFIT DANCE AT
ARMORY.

A good crowd attended the dance at
the Armory given last Saturday evening
for the benefit of the soldiers and their,
families, 1873 tickets being sold. There
was plenty of room for comfort, however,
since the hall is big one and it is hoped
that even more will turn out for the
Fair dance to be given Saturday night
for the sare purpose.

AIR MAIL ROUTE
CHICAGO NEAR
POstofhce Department An
nOmCeS Plans for
Night Flights

With the announcement yesterday
Afternoon by the Postoflice Department
iu Washington Of tentative plans for
the establishment Of regular aerial
mail service between New York and
Chicago was made the first definite
step toward the realization Of a dream
cherished in the minds Of aeronautical
men and postal authorities since 1911.
The record breaking flights of Ruth
Law and Victor Carlstrom from Chi
cago TO this city were perhaps the
greatest factors I'm bringing the postal
authorities ncbulOus plans 10 crys-
utilization.
cone plan provides for emergency
stations every twenty-five miles, each
equipped with powerful lights says
tie published Postofiicc Department
statement in part, 1.-TWO landing stations
and one relay station. The aeroplanes
would leave ether terminus at 8 p. m.
and deliver the mail between midnight
and o r.. m. the following day. From
500 TO LOCO pounds Of cargo would be
carried"
That particular plan-cslling for fly
ing by niCht-Miss Law believes, ls
nothing less than suicidal. She has
ru aCe between eighty anu ninety Iieh
Internationally more than any
other American fier-and In discussing
the danger speaks therefore with au-
thorlty.
"The only things that ono can see at
night are lights" she said at the Hotel
NcAlpi1. "If anything happens to the
plane between these lighted stations
TWENTY-FIVE miles apart, II would be
impossible safely to volplane down
even from a great altitude, to the light
cd field. With a twin motorcd craft
one would stand better chance.

wet blanket on the plan" she con
tinued. at is certainly practical IN the
dav time. If the night work were tried
I'M view Of the present development OF
American aviation, it would only mean
that couple OF good aviators would
be killed and the plan would DC
given up. Al.

closest touch with headquarters and
every action Of his command. Despite
his sixty-one years, he moves with the
easy grace of a trained athlete, Of a
man who has always lived in the open.
General Nivelle is of the blond Eng
lish type rather than the French
TIo is not a philosopher. but essen
tally a man OF action. He thinks
quickly. talks sparingly, hits swiftly
and powerfully. lie has never been 3
lecturer in school OF strategy, but
if he had been his war philosophy
might be summed up in the express
sion:
"ln a fight It is the man who hits
hardest and surest who wins"
On September Is, 1914. the Germans,
by q sudden attack, succeeded in fore
ing back the French on the User. driv-
ing them TO the left bank Of the river.
Nivelle, who was in command Of q
regiment of artillery. was the only
commander who did not follow tn.

extreme audacity. this general puzzled

that had formed in the advanced line
Of the Germans.
He broke up their plans and gave
the French time 20 reorganize and re.
cover the ground in s'yictorious ccln-
ter attack.
Nivelle's explanation Of this brilliant
move does not require many words
1T was the right thing TO do ne SAID
A. the beginning Of the war he was
in France as commander Of the Flit"
Artillery.
Nivelle's regiment went first to Al
SAGE. where he distinguished himself oy
destroying a whole group Of German
artillery. A. the Battle Of the Marne
ne commanded the artillery Of the fth
Corps. with the forces Of General
MaunOury.
Shortly afterward Nivelle was SHIFT
cd to the User sector. and in October
1914. he was made brigade commander.
In January. 1915. he took part IN de-
feating the German offensive against
scissors. An officer who was with him
on that occasion said afterward that
there was nothing more comforting
than Nivclle under fire.
In February. 1915. Nivelle received
command OF the division with which
he retook the salient Of Qulnniyeres'

At this state Of the contest Weins,,

only made feeble effort to lift bis

The contest up to the time that il
was stopped was uninteresting, made
so by Savage's inclination to rough
his opponent and clinch at every on
portunity. From the start Weinert
easily outclassed Savage and easily
evaded the majority of Savage's lun-
ges, countering cleverly meanwhile
with heavy right and left-hand blows
to the jaw. These blows, which Vein.
ert landed frequently. soon had their
effect on the Orange boxer, for as
early as the third round Savage was
breathing hard and staggering.
