Exciting Runaway Yesterday (Wednesday) morning, as Judge Wall and his farm hand, Frank Januelwicz. were starting from tiie residence for the farm with the manure spreader to which was at tached three of the judge’s horses, they became frightened at the noise of the cogs of the spreader and ran away. They headed for Jenner’s Park and from there swung around through town down to the residence of Mrs. O. Odendahl, thence west around the J. T. Hale place and back to the E. G. Taylor residence, where they were stopped, witli no damage save the breaking of a few cogs in the spreader. From the start, Frank held to the lines like grim death to a dead nigger, so to speak, and was there with the goods at the finish. It was one of the most exciting runaways occurring for many moons.

Last week in Ids Times he said McNulty was circulating a pe tition favoring W. I). Zimmerman for postmaster, while in reality it was a remonstrance against the appoint ment of Beushausen and liberally signed by democrats, Mr. Zimmerman having no part in it, nor even men tioned therein. Dr. D. A. Deeper received on Mon day of this week a neat little 4 cylin der Metz roadster, a fine little car w ith a capacity of fifty miles an hour, lie has also the agency for the same. We acknowledge the courtesy of a ride in the same yesterday, which of course gave us a good healthy ap petite for some more. The doctor is fortunate in the possession of it and can now enjoy life anew. Kev. Frank W. Burleigh, the editor’s son, will preach at the M. E. church tomorrow (Friday) night. He has been asked by Dr. Leeper to offiiciate, and has consented so to do. It is hoped that all those wishing the young man God speed in his life work, and especialIv those who have known him in the past years will be present and encourage him by their attendance tomorrow evening. Don’t forget the Farmers’ Insti tute to be iiolden in Loup City on Friday, February 28. A splendid program has been prepared, the insti tute coming under the auspices of the extension department of the University of Nebraska and the local farmers’ institute organization. We last week published the program in full, with the prizes offered for best products of the farm, and should appeal to every one interested in the upbuilding of the farming and busi ness of our county. L. W. Leonard of Pawnee City, who is thorouhly in toudh with the best interests of the farmers, will be here and deliver lectures along different lines of in terest. Miss Louise Sabin will have charge of the ladies’ department of the institute, and she is a woman who has heart and soul engaged in her work, and withal is a talented, energetic worker, with addition of eloquence to command undivided at tention on her subjects. We trust our people of all classes will advertise these sessions of the farmers meet ings, not only by word of mouth, but by attendance on the same. The Commer iai Club is also behind the farmers and is doing what it can to build up interest and carry the ses sions forward to success. IIapp?nipg into the up-to-date I iarness emporium of James Bartunek ast evening to see iiow Friend Bar junck sucked up as a bran new grandpa. We were surprised to see bliat lie was not only a happy grand lad, but also had the finest and most up-to-date line of leather goods ever in the city. In fact Jim’s reputation along these lines is so eitensive that by his books we see that he has had orders from so far away as Minnesota. Idaho and other states, while his books show orders from Ord, Broken Bow and all surrounding towns. Jim makes his own harnesses, and makes first class ones, too, and when one buys his make and needs more he is sure to go to him again. By the way, when Jim will oil a harness up in good shape for $1, it is shere waste of time and getting your hands and clothes all over oil in doing it your self.

D., Last Sat urday Morning Funeral at Rockville Yesterday, Last, Saturday, Mrs. Ida M. Ogle of Austin received a telegram with the fearful news of the death of her sister's husband, Charles Sundstrom, while brakeman on a Burlington freight train, near Edgemont, S. I)., about noon that day. The accident was caused by the explosion of the engine of the freight train on which he was brakeing, and also caused the death of the engineer and fireman of the same train. Charles Sundstrom was formerly a Rockville boy, and at the time of his death was living at Alliance and working for the Burling ton. Mrs. Sundstrom is a sister of Mrs. Ida M. Ogle of Austin and Mrs. Della Keeler, now of Big Creek, Cherry county, while Mr. Sundstrom was a brother of Mrs. Homer Ilultzof this city and has a number of rela tives now living at Rockville. The Daily Bee of Sunday morning con tained the following account of the horrible accident under date of Feb. loth, from Edgemont: Three Burlington trainmen whose homes are at Alliance, Neb., were instantly killed at noon today, when the boiler of a freight engine exploded near Provo, the first siding east of here. The train was westbound and running less than fifteen miles an hour when the accident happened. The dead: Engineer S. t. Johnson. Fireman George Wheeler. Brakeman Charles Sundsthom. Tlie body of the engineer was blown into an adjoining field, the fireman was caught in the coal tender and the brakeman’s body was unrecognizable. All have been brought here awaiting action of the coroner. Tne train carried sixty-five loads and was within thirteen miles of the end of the division when the accident occurred. The engine was of the com pound mallet type and one of the most powerful now in use. No dam age was done to the train and the engine trucks did not leave the rails, but the force of the explosion sent the mammoth boiler entirely beyond the right-of-way. Superintendent WeidenhMmer and motive power experts from Alliance are on the scene and the wreckage is left scattered over the ground with out being touched until a careful search for the cause is concluded. Later—The cause of the accident was low water in the boiler, as shown by inspection immediately after the explosion. The body was brought to Rockville Monday from Alliance, accompanied by three trainmen and the funeral was had at 3 o’clock Wednesday after noon at tiie Rockville schoolheuse, Rev. J. C. Tourtellot of Loup City officiating, interment being made in the Boelus cemetery. Deceased, Lewis Charles Sundstrom, was born in Howard county, this state, Feb. 23, 1885, and at time of death was 27 years, 11 months and 23 days old. He was married Oct. 17, 1905, to Miss Eva Blanche Carpenter of Austin, Neb., and to this union were born two sons, Vernon, aged 5 years, and Floyd, aged 3 years, who with the wife, are left to mourn the loss of a kind husband and indulgent father. Above are the few facts gleaned in regard to deceased at this time, but f-»11 obituary will be given later, if furnished us for publication. The Northwestern, with the many friends of deceased and family, will deeply sympathize with the bereaved wife and iittle ones over the awful calamity which has so suddenly come upon them.
