FOUR ARE DEAD IN
AUTO-TRAIN SMASH
Winnipeg Flyer Hits Stalled Auto
Near Brooten Last
Sunday.

Three persons were instantly killed,
one died later at the hospital and
three are injured, as result of a
loaded auto being struck by the fly
or on the 500 Line few miles west
of Brooten last Sunday at 12:40 pm.
Mr.. and Mrs. Olof Ostgulen, four
children and the sister-inlaw, Esther
Lien, of Sedan, were auto riding and
by some strange fatality their auto
became stalled right on the railroad
track. The train, with twelve heavy
coaches, rounded curve between the
high banks of cut and was within
100 feet Of the auto before the engi-
neer saw the auto, too late to stop
the train. Two children and Miss
Lien were killed instantly. The
child. Selma Ostgulen, died at the
Paynesville Hospital an hour after
she was brought there. The mother,
Mrs. Ostgulen, sustained frightful in
juries and it is still question wheth-
er she will recover. Mr.. Ostgulen
and one child are expected to recov-
er. They are under the care of DR..
Sandven of Willmar, who still has
charge of the Pilon Hospital.

BirdIess Prairies of the Northwest.

Those of US who have lived in the
East among the feathered songsters
that make their summer homes among
the leafy bowers of forest trees realize
how few and far between are the bird
notes of the West. One may travel
the prairies for days and meet with
less than half a dozen varieties. Espe-
cially in this part of the country is it
desirable that we should conserve
what we have left of the feathered
tribes and seek to induce others to
visit us. A birdless country is some
thing difficult to picture; it is not an
impossibility should we fail to respect
the laws now provided for the perpet-
uation of the migratory and other spe-
cies.-Calgary Herald.
