The entertainment given at the M.
E. church Tuesday evening by Miss
Estella Genevra Parker, reader, of
Willmar, Minn., assisted by local mu
sical talent, proved' to be a distinct
success.
Miss Parker, having formerly been
an instructor in the Pipestone schools
having several times appeared
before local audiences, was by noMessengers
means a stranger to her audience on
this occasion. Her capabilities being
known, everyone was anticipating a
delightful program, and none were
disappointed.
Pursuant to the motto of her re
cital, a laugh is worth a hundred
groans in any market," Miss Parker
included in her program a liberal
share of humorous selections, which
she rendered in a manner most plead
ing to her hearers and also in the
more serious portions of her varied
program, her work was very effective
and artistic.—Pipestone Star.

Terrible Wreck Near Georgeville.
The North Dakota express train,
No. 106, east bound, Tuesday morn
ing, from Portal, N. D., to" Minneap
olis, due in Belgrade at 2:50 a. m.,
was wrecked three miles east of Bel
grade at 3 a. m.
The belief is that a broken rail
was the cause of the accident. The
train was running at a high speed
and the entire train, excepting engine
and mail car, cleared the track and
went over a twenty foot embankment.
Mr. A. Linderholm one of our most
highly respected citizens, who had
boarded the train a few minutes be
fore, received severe injuries about
the head and throat. Altho at first
physicians believed his injuries fatal,
Mr. Linderholm is resting quite well
at this writing, and will soon fully
recover. Mrs. Blanche Potter of this
village also received a few bruises.
There were eleven other passengers
that received slight injuries from the
flying glass and from being tossed
about in the falling cars.
The train was composed of eight
cars and tore up twenty rails. Wreck
ers were hurried to the scene,, from
the east and west and the traewwas
cleared by noon for traffic.
Over 700 people of this vicinity
witnessed the disaster and most of
them with the chief surgeon of this
division declared it one of the worst
but luckiest wrecks they ever wit
nessed, as none of the passengers
met with death and only a few with
severe injuries.—Belgrade Tribune.
