their partners after the music started,
in true gentlemanly style, while the

Farmer Burns to
Death in His Home

Leeds, N. D., Jan. 20.-The bones of
E. Katter, a farmer residing four
miles west of Leeds, were found yes
terday afternoon among the ashes of
his house, destroyed by fire Wednes-
day afternoon.
Neighbors of the unfortunate man
saw the blaze yesterday, but on &C.
count of the extreme cold did not in
vestigate until today. When they
reached the scene of the fire they
could find no sign of Katter at first,
and it was not until they exposed the
ruins of the house that the chared
bones were discovered.
From the position in which the
skeleton was found, it appears that
Katter must have been attempting to
get out of his room when he was over
come by smoke.
An inquest into the affair will be
held this week by County Coroner J.
W. Warren.
Katter was so years old,and came
to this section of the country from
Germany some 20 years ago. He had
no relatives in this country so far as

Two Boys in Hospital at Once

About week ago as Harold David
son was practising for basket ball, he
suffered a fall which was quite dis
astrous, bruising his shoulder, throw
ing his elbow out of joint and break
ing the right forearm, the bone be-
ing pushed through the flesh, and a
piece Clipped off and pushed between
the two bones of the forearm. An
X-Ray examination showed the ex,
tent of the break and on account Of
the wound in the flesh it was impos'
sible to place the arm in a cast. He
was taken to the Platou hospital and
Thursday the arm was put in cast,
but it is a bad break and will require
long time to heal, even If complj.
cations do not set in.
Harold has small brother in the
hospital at the present time who has
been there for some weeks, with a
knee which was injured over a year
ago. Victor has been a patient suf-
ferer for over year and now it is
feared that it has developed into tu-
berculosis of the knee However, it
is possible that things are not as bad
as they seem and that he may soon
be out again. But it is hard row
for two young lads to be laid up at
the same time in the same family,
and their friends extend their sym.
pathy and we'll wishes.

Verdict Of $4,000 for Plaintiff
in Schnur VS.. 500 Injury Case

The case of VIM. Schnur, of Fingal.
against the 500 railway was the most
important civil action brought in this
term of court and attracted consider
able attention. .s..
It was one Of those vexatious cross
ing cases, and in this particular one
Mr.. Schnur was struck by fast
freight while crossing the tracks in
the village of Fingal and badly injur-
ed. In fact he was so badly injured
that he has not yet fully recovered
and the action was brought in the
name Of M. N. Olson as his guardian.
There were about score of wit
nesses for each side, and the volumin-
Gus testimony made the case drag out
for nearly week. Attorney D. S.
Richie conducted the case for the
plaintiff, and Lee Combs appeared for
the defense assisted by Alfred Zuger.
After hard legal battle the case went
to the jury at about o'clock Thurs
day afternoon, and at 1890 that night
they returned verdict in favor Of the
plaintiff, fixing the amount of dam
ages in the sum of $4,000.
Mr.. Combs informs us that from the
point of fact and law the case will be
appealed to the supreme court. Most
every railroad case of this nature is
appealed, and we presume this partie-
ular case will be no exception.
