J. B. Black Has
Broken Leg
WAS in ACCIDENT AT HAUCEN, MONT.
Broken Brake Causes Engineer To Lose Control
OF Logging Train

J. b. Black, homesteader,
whose farm is i'm HelIs Gulch,
met with quite a serious accident
Tuesday. He was i'm the employ
of the Mann Lumber company at
Haugen, Montana, as a fireman
ON a logging locomotive. The
locomotive was pulling IA train i'm
which were three cars loaded with
logs and another car ON which
was the loader.
The train started down steIp
grade and had only gone a short
distance when the brake ON one of
the cars broke and the engineer
lost control of the train which
started down the grade at ter
rifle rate. The conductor and
brakeman jumped at once and
escaped without injury. There
were logs and rocks ON the side
of the train ON which Black was
and by the time ID reached a place
where he could jump The train
was going at least thirty miles am
hour. He made the jump and
The speed of the train turned him
over and over. I'm the fall his
ankle was dislocaled and one of
his legs fractured.
Two of the cars loaded with
logs and the one ON which the
loader was jumped the track and
rolled down the hill into the ra-
vine below. The engine and The
other car kept ON the track, and
the engineer, John Ward who
stayed with his engine, finally
succeeded i'm bringing what was
left of his train To a stop.
Black was brought to This city
ON the passenger train Wednes-
day morning and was taken to-
PlatCs hospital, where his. broken
leg was set.

Chautauqua
Closes Today
LARGE ATTENDANCE AT EACH MEETING
Week Of Pleasing and instructive Entertainments
is Enjoyed by St. MaFieS People

The 50. Maries Chautauqua
closes today. 1t has been a sue
cess i'm every sense of the word.
The big tent has been filled at all
the evening sessions and there
has been a good attendance at
The afternoon sessions as we'll.
The question of financing the
Ghautauqua, which loomed large
before the meetings started has
been successfully solved and we
are pleased to be able to report
that the small number of public
spirited citizens who guaranteed
the sale of four hundred season
tickets, will not be called upon to
make up any deficiency. The sale
of season tickets was only a few
short of the required four hun
dred and the amount received
from the sale of single admission
tickets will make up this amount
and, il is thought, will leave a
sufficient balance to meet all in
cidental expenses.
That the people have been sat
isned with the entertainment fur
lnished is shown by The large at
Tendance at each Meeting. The
programs have been sufficiently
varied to satisfy all. The enter
tainers have all proved high class
and the week has been an enter
tanning and instructive one and
the verdict is practically unani-
NOUS that the city must have the
IChautauqua here again next
year.
We believe that entirely outside
of the weeks good, wholesome
entertainment afforded the peO-
lple the city will reap a material
benefit from the spirit created and
the suggestions made that will
greatly overbalance the cost OF
the Chautauqua. The sugges-
tion made by Ernest J. Sias i'm his
lecture on Home Town Prepared
mess, that every citizen of the
lplace talk 81. Maries and boost
st. Maries at all times and places
if carried out will prove of a valu,
to the city that cannot be esti-
imated.
Another great thing that lh'
lChautauqua has done for the cit.
: is bringing the people closer to-
gether and showing them wha
they can accomplish by all work

Automobiles
In Collision
ONE CAR GOES OVER EMBANKMENTI
Occupants UniniuFed and Oay Slight Damage To
Either Machine

Two automobiles had a coils
ion Wednesday afternoon ON the
st. Joe road about three miles
this side of ST. Joe. One was a
large, seven passenger car owned
by +. V. Kuykendell of Pomeroy.
Washington, and the other was an
Oakland roadster, owned and
driven by Ed Kirk. Mr.. Kuyken-
dell, an old friend of Rev. A. Mon
Zoe, has been spending a few days
al the Monroe camp at Little
Falls and was on his way to this
city while Mr.. Kirk was ON his
way TO st. Joe.
The road is built ON the side of
the hill along the river, follows
the winding of the river and is
very narrow and crooked. The
two machines came together as
they rounded a sharp turn i'm the
road and neither could see the
other until they met. Neither
car was going very fast but They
were so close together that ID was
impossible to stop i'm time to avoid
a collision.
Mr.. Kirk swung out towards The
river to try and pass the other
car but the road was too narrow
to pass and the wheels of the two
cars struck. Kinks car was
pushed off the road and slid down
the bank but fortunately stopped
without turning over or without
going into the river.
Neither car was badly injured
by the collision. Mr.. Kinks car
had its mud guard and wind
shield bent. The other car suf.
fered more damage. the mudguard
being torn Off, the steering gear
broken and it had to be towed TO
this city where repairs were made
and Mr.. Kuykendell continued ON
his way home.
