Yesterday afternoon Louis Lof-
strom of Devils Track lake was ac-
cidentally shot with a 22-calibre rifle
while climbing into an automobile
He was getting into the back seat
and pushed his gun ahead of him,
facing the barrel. 1t was accident
ally discharged, the ball entering his
abdomen. The local doctor was away
and doctor was brought from Chi
cago Bay to examine the patient,
who had been brought to town i'm
mediately after the accident. It
was not possible to locate the bull
let without an X-ray examina ton.
Mr.. Lofstrom was then taken to- the
Two Harbors hospital in Ed Toftey's'
speed wagon by Leo Hussey. The
X-ray located the bullet in the liver
and an operation was at once per-
formed, the bullet being removed.
The patient is reported as doing
nicely, and will probably recover.
With him at the time of the ac-
cident were j. B. Robertson and one
other man, who brought him to town.

CANDY MANNERS

II HERE is really very nicely bal
I Il anced table Of etiquette concern
ing candy. OF course, the keynote Of
1t is not to be greedy and mot to be
selfish-that is. not to be greedy IL
the candy belongs to somebody else,
and not to be selfish if it is yours.
That's the whole case in a nutshell.
So if somebody opens a box Of
candy in your presence and passes it
to you, you naturally take but one
piece. If the possessor of the candy
places it open on a table and says
help yourself, you help yourself very
charity. One or two pieces more are
all that you really would take without
further invitation. For you to eat
half the contents of the box, as some
persons do, would be the height of
rudeness.
And, on the other side of the ques-
tion, If you have box of candy you
should generously open it and pass
1t to your guests. Candy is a passing
Joy, anyway, and If you keep the box
unopened and eat it all yourself, you
will quite likely suffer headache
for your selfish indiscretion.
If a young man brings a young wom-
an a box of candy when he calls on
her, it Is customary for her to open
it Immediately, and pass it. to him
and to anybody else who may be In
the room.

Survival Of Supremacy of U. S
Hinges on Decision, Judge
Is Told.

Chicago-The United States govern.
ment was granted a temporary re-
straining order against the six strik-
ing railroad shopcrafts unions, their
officials and members from interfer-
ring in any way with the operation
of the railroads and their properties.
The order was granted by Federal
District Judge James H. Wilkerson on
application of United States Attorney
General Harry M. Daughetty and Dis.
trict Attorney Charles F. Cline. The
order will remain in force until Sept.
II pending hearing on the govern
ment's application for a permanent
writ of injunction.
"The underlying principle involved
in this action" Attorney General
Daugherty said in concluding his plea
for the court order, els the survival
and supremacy Of the government OF
the United States.''
The attorney general addressed the
court Immediately following the read.
ing of the formal complaint, read by
Assistant Solicitor General Esterlin
His plea for the injunction, Mr.. Daugh
erty said, was made necessary by the
fact, THAT there comes a time in the
history of all nations when the people
must be advised whether they have a
government or not
The plea for injunction named the
railway employees department of the
American Federation of Labor, the siz
striking shop crafts and 120 system
declarations.
The suit seeks to restrain all strik
ers from interfering in any way with
the operation of the railroads.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"SCHOONER"

~fTEEE word "schoon," which
came over with the Dutch
from Holland, was used for many
years in New York and in New
England as term to denote the
peculiar movement of stones or
flat pebbles when skipped along
the water, and it is from this
that we derive the word "schoon-
er" as applied to a certain type
Of sailing vessel.
The first schooner ever con-
structed is said to have been
built in Gloucester, Mass, about
l713, by Capt. Andrew Robinson.
The boat was laid out along
novel lines, in order to produce
maximum Of speed and she nat
urally rested on the water, rather
than in 1t. Hardly had the sails
been set for the trial trip, than
a bystander cried out, "Oh look
how she scoons along !"-mean-
ing that the craft hardly seemed
to touch the waves, but skinned
along on the surface: Robinson
instantly replied: "A sooner
she Isl" and, from that time to
this, vessels thus masted and
rigged have gone by this name,
though an "h" has been insert
ed as the third letter.
The use of the same word in
ante-prohibition days to desig-
nate a large glass Of beer is
more difficult to trace, but it
probably had its origin In the
foam on the top Of the glass-a
substance which appeared to be
analogous to the white-caps of
the ocean, for certainly no one
would try to '.scoon' "schoon-
er of beer" over the water!
