At Postville on Monday, Irene Thiese, the 11-year-old daughter of Henry Thiese, while returning home from school shortly after 12o'clock was run over by an accomodation train on the C.M. & St.P. road east bound. The engineer, as the train approached the crossing, called to the child not to cross, but she did not heed the warning and was run down. Her right leg was severed near the hip and her body was badly mangled. She lived an hour and a half and suffered great agony. -- Elkader Register.

A telephone message from Monona relates of a sad accident that happened Sunday afternoon about 2 o'clock. Mr. and Mrs. James Campbell, of Monona were returning from Volney, and while driving along the side of Yellow River an ice gorge suddenly broke and the rush of ice knocked the team, buggy, and occupants into the torrent. Mr. Campbell endeavored to catch his wife and caught her shawl when she was dragged from him and swept away. Searching parties have been out since and found the bodies of the horses some two miles below the scene of the disaster, but up to Wednesday morning the body of Mrs. Campbell had not been found, although her veil and rubbers were. Mr. Campbell is marshal of MOnona, and has been married only one year. Mrs. Campbell having been a Miss Jenkins. -- Elkader Register.
