Bad Accident in Automobile Wreck Near Schneider.
A bad automobile wreck near Schneider Wednesday night may result in the death of some of those concerned. John Black had been to Lowell in his automobile and while returning home at night his lights went out and he decided to run tjjie rest of the distance without them. He ran into a buggy, throwing out the occupant, a man, but not injuring him, but demolishing the buggy. Particulars of the accident are meagre, but it seems that after this accident Black resumed his journey, the automobile running into a ditch two times and upsetting. The last time Black and his twn, sisters were thrown out, all receil? ing injuries. One of the women had her skull fractured and arm brokhad an arm fractured. They were removed to a hospital in Chicago and the injuries of the one worst hurt may prove fatal. Black seems to have been injured internally and this Thursday morning he became unconscious and grave fears are entertained for his recovery.
