Henry Fallon, scaler for the Red River Lumber company, came very close to bumping into ithe bank burglars who made IO.heir get-away with $8,000 in Akeley Wednesday morning. He arrived in Akeley on a train at about 1:30 a. m, and walked up trwn, passing the bank build- ing at 1:40 or 1:45. The explosion took place at just 1:55, so the men must have been working in the bank when he passed. Neither he nor the man who was with him heard any noise nor suspected anything, however. The safe door was blown-clear through a partition in the bank, through the side of the bank building and part way through the wall of a building across the alley in which F. G. Farren was sleeping, the man who started to come out of the building and was ordered back in by a man with a irevolver. ! Mr. Fallon says there-did not seem to be a great deal of excite- ment in the town over the { burglary. ! SEVEN TRAINMEN KILLED. Two Freights in Disastrous Collision ! at Ringjold, Ga.

P. O’Meara of Park Rapids. In spite of the rainy weather, the house was packed, and the exercises were beautiful. The class had been carefully trained by Father O’Dwyer, and his drilling showed plainly in the ex cellent manner in which the questions put by the bishop were answered. Bishop MecGorrick was deeply impressed and cow- mended the class on its excellent work. The music by the choir, which had been especially trained byl O. E. Bailey returned home last night from the West, and tells an nteresting story of the wreck on the Great Northern in Montana the other day, in which he was uninjured, but consider- ably shaken up. Mr. Bailey was in one of the cars that left the track and turned over, and the first few minutes, until he found out that no one was killed, were minutes of horror. Several were injured, but none, so far, have died from their wounds. The fact that the engine did not leave the track is responsible, probably, for the slight damage, as it allowed the cars to run ahead without doubling up or telescoping. The train was running better than sixty miles an hour when the crash came, declares Mr. Bailey. The_ epgine struck a piece of soft track and the tender left the rails, followed by all the cars excepting the last two, The baggage car, the smoker, the day coach and the tourist car turned over and dragged along on their sides for several rods. The track was torn up for two or three hundred feet.
