Hearse in Accident.

Sleepy Eye, August 24.-Jessie
Majewski, one of the leading under
takers of this city, and WilliamWal-
tiers, one of the local automobile deal
ers, were severely injured on the Sixth
street crossing of the Northwestern
tracks here at 4:10 last evening upon
the arrival of the Northwestern pas
senger train No. II which crashed into
an auto hearse which was being driv-
en- by Mr.. Walters. The two men had
been to the local cemetery with the
remains of A. j. Roberts, one of the
local retired mail carriers, and were
returning to get more flowers at the
undertaking rooms of Mr.. Majewski,
when the train struck them.
The hearse was struck and dragged
about thirty feet and completely dem
olished. Mr.. Majewski was picked
up in an unconscious condition, and
upon examination was found to be
suffering from fracture of the right
leg, and dislocation of the right hip.

exercised in removing clothing or
shoes, where that is necessary.
JAW-Always examine teeth on
side where the pain is. If these are
irregular or gum is bleeding, the evil
dence of fracture is clear, so place the
lower teeth against upper, get some
one to hold in place, and take narrow
scarf, catch under jaw and carry one
end over top of head, cross at temple

forehead and other around nape of
neck and tie ends on opposite temple.

of lungs in breathing, and consequent

In addition to this Mr.. Majewski sus-
tanned a number Of bruises and cuts
about the body and head. At first it
was thought Mr.. Walters was not
severely injured, but about ten o'clock
last night he was seized with a severe
pains through the chest and it is now
feared that he has sustained internal
injuries.

by Mr.. Walters, and cost in the neigh
borhood of $4,000 was completely

Ponds Like Pools OF Ink.

In cross-country flying clear, quies-
cent ponds of water are usually the
darkest areas in the landscape. Often
they appear like pools of Ink and their
relative brightness Is much less than
that of black velvet. This is easily
explained. The water Is perfectly
clear and the bottom Is black and
porous. Little or no light is reflected
except from the surface.

VOTE TO BE COUNTED.

In computing the size of coun
ty delegations to state party con-
ventions officials leceted upon
nomination by more than one
party should he counted as hav-
ing been elected by both parties
and total vote should be credited
to both parties in making the
computation. This was the hold
ing of Attorney General Roy l..
Black in an opinion issued today
at the request of Secretary of
State Robert o. Jones. who was
in doubt as to whether Miss
Ethel f. Redfield, state superin-
tendent of schools, who received
both the republican and demo-
cratic nominations in the last
campaign should be counted as a
republican or as democrat.
Delegates to state party conven-
tons are apportioned on the

gressional and state offices div
ided into the total vote. each unit

Harvest and Hunters Moon.

The full moon nearest the antumnal
equinox (September 22) is known as
the harvest moon" Owing to the oc.
currence of minimum retardation In
the time of rising AT that period, this
moon rises at nearly the same time on
several successive nights. 1t rises
early and gives the husbandmen who
have been playing golf all day an op.
p0rtunity to gather their crops, hence
it's name. The hunters moon" Is the
moon following the harvest moon.
The occasion for its name is obvious.
1t occurs at the season of the year
when the country youth, the harvest
having been gathered, slings his gun
over his shoulder and wanders
through the woods In search of the
gray squirrel and other larger game.
