efficiency of it's sales service by
adding a pneumatic cash carrier
system from it's basement to the
office in the balcony on the main

Crossing Takes
Lives of Two
Lamberton Star Gives Detailed
Account of Last Weeks
Accident
BUILDING OBSTRUCTS VIEW
Engineer States Usual Signals
Were Given; Could Not See
Approaching Car

The Lamberton Star gives the
following account of the auto
mobile accident at Lamberton
Monday, November 6, when A.
Hermann and C. Slough were
killed and Two others injured:
''The men had just left the
electric light plant, after load
ing their tools and supplies for
the days work and were on their
way to theiz. work. They were
being followed at some distance
by second car of men.
'The crossing is we'll known
for the priceless toll of life it
has exacted from the commun-
ity. Here the view of the track
is completely shut off to those
approaching from the south by
a large elevator building-no
longer in use-and by a grove
of trees, which increases the
danger in sumner when bearing
leaves. It is said that three box
cars standing on the side track
near the elevator further OBJ
structed the view. According to
the story Of the survivors, no
sound was heard as they ap-
preached the crossing and as
they emerged from behind the
elevator the train was bearing
down upon them.
"The auto was squarely across
the tracks as the engine struck
it, and the car was rolled up the
front of the locomotive and then
thrown to one side, as if pur-
posely, about thirty feet from
the rails and about As feet from
where it was struck. Slough and
Macarthur sat in the front with
Ever, who was driving, while
Hermann and Cooler were in the
rear. The latter jumped as soon
as he saw the danger and saved
himself by the narrowest pos
sible margin. Cooler was first
en- the scene and it was a ghast-
ly sight that met his eyes. Ever
and Macarthur were making an
effort to get up, Slough was
thrown several feet beyond the
car and was apparently killed
outright, while Hermann who
was carried some distance down
the right Of way was rendered
unconscious and died in less than
an hour without recovering con-
seriousness. Ewer's injuries con-
sisted principally of compound
fractures OF a leg and one arm
and he was removed to a hospi.
tai at New Ulm on the after
noon train. Macarthur almost mi.
raculously escaped with bruises
about the body although he was
severely shaken up and given {
serious nervous shock. The cal
was converted to scraps.
"The engineer stated that hi
did not see the car until almost
upon it and was helpless to avoi(
, the accident. He stated that his
train was running within rea
! sonable speed limits and tina
they had given the usual signals
for the station and before reach
ing the crossing"

WANTED-RECRUITS.

We thought perhaps the people
At Caldwell would like to know
What we soldier boys are doing
Way down here in Mexico.
So in true heroic phrases
I'll relate the story bold
How we fought the foe undaunted
Like the fearless knights of old.
How we strived to save the dear old
flag,
We love so tenderly,
How we fought the bloody battle
And we won the victory.
Twas on the second morning
That we heard the bugle call,
And the captain cried assemble
And we answered one and all.
The dawn had scarcely broken
AS we marched along the hills,
Some armed with picks and shovels
While others carried drills.
SO at very hasty pace
The hills we all did climb
The next command the captain gave
was forward double time.
We now had reached the rugged top
And heard the captain cheer
AS skirmishers advance and charge
The enemy is here.
To save the readers of this verse
From any more suspense,
I'll tell you how we fought that day
And have fought ever since.
Our willing young Spencer boy
He struck the first brave blow,
His pick came down with speed and
force
And shook the world below.
And by the time Harold Johnson
And Wooley got started too,
The rocks were flying everywhere,
The air was turning blue.
| And now my story | must end
Ny thoughts are getting fewer,
| But wish to state we came to light
! And not to dig a sewer.
But if there's any boys up there
That want to be a lamb
Just tell them they can come and tigh
For dear old Uncle Sam.
We're just as patriotic now,
But let me tell you all,
This pick and shovel fighting
Don't appeal to us a-tall; ,o
ONYMOUS.

they passed the California troops in

Death Of irving HALEY.

Died at his late home near Pomoukey
on ia saas, aged 20 years, Mr., Irving
HALEY. after a lingering illness Of
tuberculosis. The young man was in
the bloom Of life With prospects for a
bright and happy future before him.
Before being compelled to abandon his
work Oh account Of sickness he occupied
the position Of chemist at the Indian
Head Proving Grounds. His occupa
tior was one that application to work
called for future success. 1t seems
hard indeed for one so young to be
called away but all must answer the
summons of the Most High. He was a
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Winfield HALEY.
Besides them he leaves one brother
surviving him.
