TRACTION ENGINE
IN SNAKE RIVER
Bridge Collapses and Engine is
Dumped Into The
Water.
Last Saturday afternoon Tom
Keefe took out a bran new thrash
ing outfit from town. It was taken
as far as John westman's place on
the road west from the city that day
and on Sunday morning following
Mr. Keefe proceeded south with the
rig to thrash on the south side of
Snake river. While attempting to
cross the bridge by Mr. Cheney's
place, the bridge suddenly collapsed
and the big Gaar-Scott engine
dumped into the water about 18 feet
below. Mr. Keefe and T. M.
Thorsen, the engineer, stood
on the platform of the engine
at the time. When he
noticed the bridge falling Mr.
Keefe jumped to one side, but
Mr. Thorsen did not have even
time to jump but went down with
the engine and up to his neck in
the water. His feet also got caught
in some way so that it took a little
while before he could extricate
himself from his dangerous position.
Mr. Keefe also became entangled in
the falling timbers of the collapsed
bridge and received some scratches
and bruises. Mr. Thorsen also got
a sliver into his mouth. It was a
very narrow escape for both men
and they are very thankful that
they are yet alive
Yesterday contractor J.Nyland,
from this city, went out with jack
screws and capstan and succeeded
in pulling the engine out of the river
not seriously damaged. Before at
tempting to cross,the seperator was
unhooked and consequently is un
harmed. Mr. Keefe expects to have
the rig at work in a day or two.
The bridge is an old one, and
though it had been repaired to some
extent this year, yet it was not
strong enough to stand the strain of
the monster engine. The town of
Boxville will probably be called
upon to foot any bills for damages
that may have been sustained.
M. W. A. Hall.
Bert Martin, the baritone, illus
trated song and moving pitcure ex
pert, is booked for a return engage
ment on Tuesday Sept. 29th. Lovers
of beautiful illustrated songs and
to-date moving pictures should not
miss these concerts. The feature
of these moving pictures is the gor
geous production of Over and Under
the Seaa succession of marvelous
surprises, startling visions, full of
humor, action and quick changes,"
wonderful dissolving scenes, intro
ducing fire element and cyclonic
effects, gorgeous scenes and past
times. This picture is 1050 feet in
length and is of most beauti ul
colors. It will create a sensation
and is alone worth the price of ad
mission. Huge elephants shooting
the shoots, fairy at the spring,
burglars slide for life, Coney Is
land fire department to the rescue
and a department in full action. A
hundred other subjects.
This is Mr. Martin's second time
here and he should be greeted with
large houses he always gives you
your money's worth. Admission
35, and 50c, children 15.
A Sight in the Zenith City.
When in Duluth visit The Herald
building and see its magnificent
press room with its two large
perfecting presses. Also see the
rest of its equipment, which is un
equaled in any city of twice the size
of Duluth in the United States.
You will get the glad hand when
you call. The Herald is one of
Minnesota's great newspapers,
enterprising, progressive and up
to-date. It is independent in
politics, and a free lance in its
editorial colums, but ever active for
the upbuilding of Northern
Minnesota. Send 25 cents for a
trial order for The Daily Herald,
one month. Duluth Weekly Herald,
$1 per year six months, 50 cents
three months, 25 cents.
High School Notes.
The foot-ball team is practicing
every night after school and expects
to play its part this year.
All the students are not Cross
this year as in former years.
There will be at least fourteen
students in the senior class this
year.
The names of some unfortunate
pupils can be seen on the front
board, which means: write your
proposition after school.
Something unusual appeared in
the senior class one day,"An
Artist."
Officers for the senior class for the
coming year were elected as follows
president, Joseph Schell vice
president, Chas. Moulton, secretary
and treasurer, Minnie Tullar, class
counselor,Miss Minta Watkins.
The solid geometary class has
grown from the and I class to the
you him and us class.
Elegant Farm Residence.
Mr. Ole Bang has just completed
a fine ten thousand dollar residence
on his farm near Oslo, the new town
on the Soo. The house altho built
on a farm has every modern
convenience including sewer, water
works etc It is built with hard
wood floors and elegant hardwood
finish thruout and is an example of
what thrift and a little effort will do
on a Red River Valley farm.
From Gustavus Adolphus Col
lege.
St. Peter, MinnThe fall term
opened this year on September 9th,
and the enrollment the first day ex
ceeded that of any previous open
ing day in the history of the insti
tution. Almost all those enrolled
that day were new students, which
fact gives hope of a large attend
ance this year. To the college
quartette, that during the summer
months has rendered concerts in
various sections of the state, is un
doubtedly due the credit of bring
ing many of the new students. The
old students have been coming in
continually since the opening of the
term and the wheels of the know
ledge mill are now humming at full
working speed. Heavy work was
scarcely to be thought of the first
week because of a street fair and
carnival down town, which natur
ally occupied some of the students'
attention. The carnival is now
closed, however, and the professors
do not seriously regret it.
The college is continually widen
ing its field of activity. Last year
a department of agriculture was
added to the commercial depart
ment in order to give the farmer
boys a chance to obtain practical in
struction in that line during the
winter months. This branch is
under the charge of Prof. Wojta, a
lecturer and writer oi reputation
both in our own and neighboring
states. This year a new and unique
department has been added, unique
because it is the only one of its kind
on this continent, namely the chair
of Icelandic. There are extensive
Icelandic settlements in parts of
Minnesota and North Dakota and
many Icelandic students have at
tended this institution during past
years. It is to afford these an op
portunity to familiarize themselves
with the Icelandic language and
literature that the Icelandic Synod
has asked for and been granted this
chair. This makes the number of
different languages taught at this
institution eight. Prof. Magnusson,
who fills this chair, is a native of
Iceland and has received his edu
cation at Cambridge University,
England, and has since taught
three years in his native land.
Magnusson is a muscular athlete
and is to be our gymnastic director.
Military Drill has also been added
to the schedule and this, it is
hoped, will assist in turning out
men well developed in body as well
as mind.

TRANSPORTATION
CO. LOSES.
Soo R. R. Shows That its Bridge
at Oslo Does not Obstruct
Navigation.
Application by the East Grand
Forks Transportation company for
an injunction restraining the Sooline
from maintaining a bridge across
the Red River and ordering its
removal was denied by Judge
Amidon of the Federal court. The
Soo showed that4ts bridge does not
now obstruct navigation by the
plaintiff's boats. The judge stated
that if in the future appliances
provided by the railroad company
were inadequate, the petition might
be renewed.
Larson-Lundgren Nuptials.
Mr. -Alden L. Larson and Miss
Clara M. Lundgren were united in
marriage by Rev. J. AA Mattson in
this city on last Friday afternoon,
Sept. 15, 1905. After the ceremony
the happy couple boarded the Great
Northern train for a wedding trip
to different points in North Dakota.
After Oct. 15, they will be at home
to their freinds in this city.
The groom who came here recent
lly from Carver county, is an indus
trious and capable young man, and
the bride is an esteemed young
lady, also from Carver, but who has
spent considerable time in this city
visiting relatives, she being a niece
of John E. Lund. Many freinds
wish the newly wpdded pair a
happy future. Karlstad Election.
The following village ticket was
elected at Karlstad at the election
held last week President, C. J.

and Rasmi Nelson, constables, L. E.
Anderson and Wm. Peterson.
Apple Orchard.
H. E. Mussey this week has been
presenting his friends with some
fall apples grown at his home on the
East Side, and proves beyond a
doubt that this section of the coun
try is to become a great fruit rais
ing country in course of time. The
apples Mr. Mussey raises are of the
Oldenberg variety, and the winter
frosts have not killed the trees.
If every farmer would raise a small
amount of tame fruit each year, this
section would soon develop into
quite a fruit country.Thief River
Falls News.
To the People of Viking and
Vicinity.
I wish to announce that my store
in Viking will be open for business
next Monday with a new and com
plete line of general merchandise.
I desire also to state that until the
railroad will carry freight I will be
unable to accept butter or eggs in
trade. Respectfully,
K. L. LUNDGREN.
Music.
A Conservatory of Music will be
opened in the Berget Block, 2nd
floor, on Mouday, October 2nd, by
Miss Louise T. Grindeland.
A thoro course in the art of piano
playing and also singing has been

received now at Miss Grindeland's
residence.
Like Finding Money:
Finding health is like finding
money so think those who are
sick. When you have a cough,
cold, sore throat, or chest irritation,
better act promptly like W. C.
Barber, of Sandy .Level, Va. He
says: "I had a terrible chest
trouble, caused by smoke and coal
dust on my lungs but, after finding
no relief in other remedies, I was
cured by Dr. King's New Discovery
for consumption, coughsand colds."
Greatest sale of any cough or lung
medicine in the world. At E. F.
Whitney's drug store 50c and
$1.00 guaranteed. Trial bottle
free.
NUMBER 41.
A Word to the Dairy-men.
For the welfare of the state and
its dairymen the Food and Dairy
department is jealously guarding the
reputation that Minnesota has won
in the line of dairying and to that
end the Dairy and Food department
is enforcing the law regarding the
manufacture of butter from sour
cream. When your buyer refuses
to take any cream that is unfit for
making butter off you can lay it to
that they have been ordered to do
so by the Dairy and Food depart
ment and that it is their desire to
obey the law that prompts them to
refuse any such cream. It is not
the desire of the department to find
any bad cream or have any pros
ecutions, on the other hand all in
their power is done to instruct
dairymen in methods that will do
away with poor cream of any grade
and will therefore briefly give here
the essential points in the handlirg
of milk and cream Cleanliness
covers everything, develop yo
sense of cleanliness and you wnl
not be satisfied before you have the
methods to satisfy yourself. In the
cleaning of all utensils, wash them
first with luke warm water and a
a bi-ush (o\ fiber) well rounded at
the ends so it will reach into ail
creases and corners of the tinware,
when the utensil is perfectly clean
rinse it well with scalding hot
water and place them with the
opening upwards to give a free cir
culation of air, this cleans them
lastly with air. Utensils thus hand
led should be entirely free from any
odor whatever, then they are fit to
put milk or cream in The separat
ing of the milk should be done im
mediately after milking. As soon as
separated the cream should be
aerated. There is machinery made
for this purpose, but in the absence
of such simply pouring it back into
the pail for several minutes with a
dipper will do the work effectively.
Never pour the new cream into the
one kept from the previous milking.
When these simple rules are ob
served, there will be no bad cream.
Besides being the right way it is
the easiest and cheapest way in the
end. JOEL G. WINKJER
STATE DAIRY AND FOOD INSPECTOR.
