Chief MOSSrnan
Accidentally Shot
Bullet Entered Right Leg Below
Knee-Win BE Unable to Care
For Duties for Weeks

Chief Of Police Fred Mossman is
confined to his home as the result
Of an accident which occurred on
Tuesday afternoon shortly before
two O'Clock. He was accidentally
shot through the right leg with a
80 calibre automatic revolver. Of
ficer JOS. Kusba Ia taking care of
the day job. while Frank Daniels
has been employed as temporary
night police, during Chief Moss
mans absence.
Officer Mossman, accompanied
by Lee Dobbs, was returning from
West Union, where he had been on
business. When about two miles
west Of Sank Centre they stopped
for target practice with a gun
which Fred had not shot for some
time. He had fired six shots and
had removed the magazine clip
for a refill Of cartridges. While
filling the clip he laid the revolt
yer in the seat OF the car. Lee
Dobbs reached over, picked up the
pistol and pulled the trigger. The
bullet entered Fred's right leg,
just below the knee and came out
on a downward slant several in
ches below. Lee, it seems, did not
know that when the clip Is taken
out a bullet remains in the barrel.
The injured officer was immed-
lately taken to a doctors office
where X-ray pictures revealed that
1t was a clean wound and that no
bones had. been injured. This is
rather miraculous as the bullet
went between the two bones Of the
lower leg. Owing to the fact that
the bullet was Of steel, instead Of
lead, his condition is less danger
Gus. However, he will be forced to
remain away from duty for several
weeks. Latest reports state that
Fred is getting along nicely, al
though he Is in considerable pain.

Call for
Bids on New
Sank Bridge
Will Be Concrete Deck Girder
Structure of 3 Spans
I'll Feet Long
WAS CALLEDFOR JUNE 7
Will Be Announced Later
Owing to Negotiations
Pending With City

Bids on four state highway pro-
Jects to cost approximately $780,
900 were called for June z by
the Minnesota highway depart
ment. Included in these projects
was the new bridge to he erected
this year over Sank River on T. H.
No. II, in this city. On Tuesday the
Herald received letter from the
highway department which stated
that the United States Bureau of
Public Roads has now asked
that no bids be received on this
project until further negotiations
between the department and the
City of Sank Centre are completed.
Consequently there will be a delay
Of several weeks in the letting Of
this contract.
M. ]. Hoffman, highway bridge
engineer, stated over the telephone
Tuesday afternoon that he believ-
ed that the dam had some bearing
on the postponement Of the call
for bids. The Federal Government
does not allow highway monies to
be expended only for road or
bridge purposes, and in this case
contends that any work which may
be done to the dam should be
borne by the city. The City offic-
ials have had no definite advice in
this matter. At the present time
the City has no definite plans as
to the repair Of the old dam or the
construction Of a new one In the
near future a government engin-
eer will come to the city to look
the situation over and to make re-
concentrations to the Water,
Light Power Commission.
Wednesday the city received
from the highway department a
notice Of the objections made by
the United States Bureau of Pub
lie Roads. These were in the form
of plans and specifications which
will be turned over to the city en-
gineer for advice. Following the
engineers recommendations MEM
bers Of the Water, Light & Power
Commission will again meet with
the highway engineer in st. Paul,
at which time it is hoped the mat
ter will be settled in a satisfactory
manner to all concerned.
The new bridge plans call for
a concrete deck girder struc-
ture of spans. It will be III
feet long with approaches of 354
feet in length. The roadway will be
forty feet In width, with six foot
sidewalks on both sides. The side
walks will be elevated about 6 in
ches above the road bed. The re-
placement Of the present bridge,
which is much too narrow for safe
passage, will be one Of the great
est improvements made in the city
for some time.
It is understood that the con-
tract will include a temporary
bridge to be erected probably one
block east of the present structure
at Pine Street.
This call includes, besides the
local bridge, work in Jackson, Will
kins and Dakota counties, with the
improvement Of dangerous rail-
way underpass north of North
field, where several serious acct
dents have occurred, and the wild
ening of a concrete arch culvert at
Lakefield.
According to the highway bulle-
tin, the following are the jobs for
which bids have been asked:

Baccalaureate Service
Rev. y. D. Butler, pastor Of the
Methodist Church, Of this city,
preached the Baccalaureate SER
mon to the Glass of 1895 at the
Junior High School Auditorium on
Sunday evening. His sermon was
based on the text, knowledge of
Truth to Gain Freedom" He told
the members of the class that al
though they were completing their
high school course, they were not
through with their quest for know
ledge, and admonished them to
seek truth in that knowledge. He
stated that old superstitions had
been dropped through knowledge
Of truth, but that many problems
in the world still remain unsolved
today as a result of lack Of know
ledge. In this connection he cited
the economic disaster of the world,
which is still unsolved, and also
problems Of medical science as well
as others equally as important to
humanity, which may be solved by
the knowledge which is gained
from truth. His sermon was inspir-
ing and proved to the young peo-
pie who are entering upon new
fields of endeavor, whether that be
higher education, or in the fields OF
commerce and industry, that there

Girl
In "CoId Diggers'

A Washington girl, Eleanore
Troy, appears prominently among
the Busby Berkeley girls in Gold
Diggers of 1885," the new War
ner Bros. musicale which opens
today at the Earle Theater. Miss
Troy, whose real name is Edmon-
ston, formerly lived with her
family at 651 B st. N. E.
Although many of the 300
dancers in the film appear in
group publicity pictures, Miss
Troy was selected as the only
one to pose for these photo
graphs alone. Consequently she
appears in various screen maga-
zines this month, and also oc-
cupies a prominent place in the
advertisements prepared by the
home office of Warner Bros. for
national release.
