Married in Devil's Lake

Throws Self Under Car

Williston N. D., June 9.—Throwing herself on the track under a speeding street car in Minneapolis, Mrs. Alma Haugan of Arnegard met instant death. Suffering from a nervous breakdown and possibly mentally unbalanced Mrs. Haugan took the desperate leap in front of the car. The fender failed to save her and the wheels passed over her body, death resulting instantly.

Mrs. Haugan with her husband left Arnegard two weeks ago for a visit with relatives in Minneapolis with the hope that the change in conditions would benefit her health. She has been suffering with nervous trouble since the death of her father a year ago. The home of the Haugans was formerly at Red Wing Minn., from where they came to north western North Dakota a couple of years ago.
