Oscar Wilte of Le Sueur, Minn., met with a most remarkable accident recently that very nearly coat Mm his life. With his rifle In hand he was attempting to get within range of a eat he desired to shoot, when the animal ran up Into the framework supporting the water lank.

The bullet killed the eat and pierced the bottom of the tank, and In an instant the water, gushing cut, surrounded Mr. Wilte with a complete shower bath In a temperature of 35 degrees below zero. Instantly his overshoes froze to the tone foundation on which he was standing, and, stooping to unbuckle them, he was chained by the spray, freezing in the terrible cold as fast as It fell Into a lid less statue of ice, stiff and Immovable as a stone. Only by his stooping posture, which kept his face free tmin the Ice, was be saved from suffocation. Soon the flow of the water was stopped by tbc sediment of the tank flowing into the bullet hole, and a little son of hlr. Wil'.e, who had seen the whole affair, ran for assistance. It waa necessary to loosen the unfortunate mans feet with chisels, and when be bad beer, carried into the house by three strung men the ice had to be broken from him with clubs. He was badly frightened by the experience, but otherwise unharmed. The body of the cat waa found frozen to his back. Pioneer Press. 6he Has Right to Damages.
