For some time it has been thought
advisable by the city fire department
to have the Anticipated hose cart and
hook and ladder equipment mounted
on trucks that the fire alarm might
be answered more promptly and eff
GENTLY. In line with this need the
fire committee of the city council yes
terday purchased two Ford truck
chassis from the Valley Motor Co.
The hook and ladder equipment will
be mounted on one Of these trucks
while the hose equipment will be
mounted on the other. This will give
the fire department three trucks in
their equipment and, should enable
them to fight possible fires much more
efficiently than before.

VIM. Bergman, who has been held
in the Barnes county jail since Sun
day under suspicion of having stolen
C. M. Axtell's Ford car on the Fourth
of July, is reported to have confessed
to the theft yesterday. States At
torney L. s.. B. Richie and Sheriff
Larson have been working on the case
since the capture Of Mr.. Bergman.
Bergman had told them a seemingly
straight story regarding the purchase
of the car but in trying to make the
story more convincing had tried to
detail his movements on the night the
car was stolen and made some mis-
statements which led the officials to
believe that the entire story was a
fabrication. They continued their
questioning until the fellow realized
that he had made a mistake and final
ly admitted stealing the car. He will
be brought before Judge M. J. Eng
lert at an early date to receive SEN
tence. 1t is a hard proposition to
prove the theft of an auto when cir
cumstances are as they were in this
case and States Attorney Richie de-
serves much credit for his work in OBJ
tanning the confession.

A bad auto wreck occurred at the
corner of Fourth street and Ninth av-
enue last night. Evidently the eye
witnesses to the accident were too
excited to get the facts very straight
in their minds and we are unable to
get the names of the principals but
the facts are that two cars were COM
ing north on Ninth avenue, one car
being driven by party from the
Twin Cities and the other car being
driven by a party from near Hanna
ford. Some fellow, whose identity is
unknown, was speeding from the west
on Fourth street and met the two
cars on the corner, forcing them into
the curb. The front ends of the cars
were badly wrecked, one young lady
riding in one of the cars tainted and
the occupants of both cars were bad
ly shaken up and bruised but no seri-
Gus injuries were received. The driv-
er of the east bound car, which was
a Buick, stepped on the gas and left
without stopping to see the damage
he had done or give the spectators an
opportunity of identifying him. Mrs
J. E. Featherstone took the party
from Hannaford into her home for
the night and they continued on their
way this morning.
