Mrs. M. J. Burl* has received two telegrams this week informing her that her son, Elmer, is getting along all right following an operation he had Monday at Salt Lake City. He is a streetcar motonman there and on March 17th he was sent to the car barn to get extra cars. He was about to make a coupling when he saw a rail lying across the track and he reached for It to throw it out of the way. In doing so he lost his balance and fell between the cars just «s they came together and was severely crushed. He was getting along quite well for a time, however, but Monday had to undergo an operation. Mrs. Bum* received a telegram this Friday morning stating that he was getting along very nicely. He was raised at Wolcott and is 30 years old and unmarried.
J. R. Mulder, the Roselawn merchant, was a Rensselaer visitor today.
