NARROW ESCAPE FROM DEATH.
Ole TollefsOn and Son Otto, Driving
Ford, Struck by Milwaukee
Train Near Stock Yards.

Last Thursday afternoon the in
coming Milwaukee passenger train
struck Ford automobile driven by
Otto Tollefson, on the crossing Just
this side of the Milwaukee stock
yards. The boys father, Ole Toilet
son, was in the rear seat. The train
was not running at a high rate of
speed, which no doubt saved the
lives of the occupants of the car.
The Tollefsons reside about four
miles out from DEBORAH on the Cal
mar road and were on their way
home. Their car was just about
completely wrecked, but Mr.. Toilet
son and his son escaped with only
minor bruises and cuts. They were
thrown out clear of the track. The
boy was unconscious when picked
ZIP. and remained so for an hour or
so. The train stopped and picked
them up and took them into the
passenger depot, and they were i'm.
mediately taken to the hospital, and
were attended by the Milwaukee
company's surgeon, DR.. Stabo. The
doctor found no bones broken in
either patient. The father was
scratched and cut some on the face
and the son had bad scalp wound
and was scratched up considerably
also. He remained at the hospital
until Sunday night when he went to
his home.
1t was indeed a narrow escape
and the many friends of the Toilet
lsons rejoice that they escaped from
serious injury like they did.

Claim Betting Harmful to Base Bal

Sldifu DtttinS udFiHiul W IaSt Dali

game between the two towns. In

score stood one to nothing in favor

said the man. This and similar oc-

the game clean to have a specific
law passed at the next session of the

claim is made that present laws
against gambling are too general,
but with law naming ball games

PUTS OVER FINE REFORM.
Members Boone County Board Super.
visOrs Restores Credit of
County by Business Methods

Perry, la. L. Blake, who lives
north of Perry, and is a member of
the Boone county board of supervis.
Ors, has put over a reform which
restores the credit of that county.
Blake is a business man; tax
payess don't care anything about his
politics.
He has put into effect a number of
business reforms in public affairs.
The new one is the consolidation of
public funds in one bank. The
supervisors secured a contract from
the officers of that institution that
all warrants would be cashed at
par, and at any time. The saving to
the county will be big one, espec-
tally in the construction of roads
and bridges.
1t has been the policy in the past,
as it has been in other counties, to
distribute the funds among the var
ious banks of the county. AS a re-
suit no bank has had enough to make
the account a. good one. When a big
project was started. the fund from
which it was to be paid was gener-
ally low and the contractors had to
discount their warrants from 10 to
Is per cent in order to get cash.
They protected themselves by max.
ing their bids correspondingly high,
and the taxpayers We're the goats as
usual.
But no longer, in Boone county,
thanks to Mr.. Blake.
