Mary Vollenhaupt,s Death.

Further particulars concerning the
drowning of Little Mary Vollenhaupt
are as follows: The house of the Vollcn-
haupts is on the bank of Long Lake
Creek. Mrs. VolIcnhaupt went across
the creek, to where the COWS were pick
ctcd, crossing on plank kept there for
that purpose. She left her two little
glrls--one aged 8 and the other 5--near
the house. On her return she saw that
the youngest, Mary. had tried 10 cross the
plank, and had fallen into the water,
which at that point is about two feet
deep. The mother kncclcd on the board,
but could not reach the little one. She
then tried to push the child ashore with
pole, but failed. And then, los
my her wits, she picked up her other
child and ran to the McTavish claim,
near by. Not finding any one of the
family at home, she foolishly started to
fetch her husband, at work some five
miles distant. Of course the little girl
was drowned. Several people went out
next day to the scene of the fatal acci-
dent and Mrs. Allen, Mrs Waldroff, Mrs
McTavlsh and Miss Mary McTavish pre-
pared the body for burial. Mrs. Waldrotf
says that Mary, who Was pretty little
blonde, looked as natural in death as
though but asleep.
The mother is said to bc of weak
mind and subject to fits. Living on the
banks of a creek. it would seem that, un.
der the circumstances, the surviving child
must he in constant danger

A party of ladies and gentlemen from
Logan and Kidder counties passed through
Williamsport Wednesday,. The party
consisted of Miss Nellie Bclden; Miss
Helen Goodsill; Mr.: w. i. Eelden,
Mr.. r. D. Belden and Mr.. Will slmonson;
of Steele Miss Laura Spanglcr, Mr. Vim:
6pangler and Mr.. johnson, Of Logan
county. The travellers were on their way
to the Missouri, which they intend to
cross, and camp for several days in the
woods on the other side: They have
three teams and all things necessary for
camping out They intended going to
some point where there is boat, prob.
ably opposite the Cannonball. There
they would leave the teams. No more
suitable objective point for pleasure
trip can be found in North Dakota at
this season of the year than the timber
along the river. Hunting and fishing are
said to be very good there at present, and
a few days sojourn "under the green
wood tree" is something that certainly
ought to prove pleasant to residents of q
prairie country.

permit him to boss the job. In fact, he sue
ceeded in making holy show Of himself
(Winona Times.
The facts regarding the convention are
exactly as Mr.. Wade stated in last weeks
RECORD. Not only Mr.. w., but large
majority of the delegates, were strongly
in favor of sending to Yankton Mr.. Nc
grory, Mr.. Child or SOME other repre-
sentative man from the southern part of
the county. We believe they had, as
free citizens, right to their choice. Be
cause forward and cheeky young man
jumps to the front and begs every body to
vote for him is no reason Why they
should do so if, in their Judgment, better
material could be obtained. It Is as GER
tain as anything can be that, if some
representative man from Winona had al
lowed his hame to be used, George would
never have had the honor of going to
Yankton to shake hands with Judge Gif-
ford: George told Mr.. McCrory that he
could not be elected if the latter ran,
which was the entire truth. If there h ad
been anything in the position to attract
candidates, the Winona editor wouldn' t
have had ghost Of a chance. The COM
plexion of the convention was shown in
the squclching which the contemplate
effort to deprive Mt. Buthstead of seat as
holder of the Baker Township proxies
received. These proxies were all regular
and legitimate; yet the friends of the
Douglas Outfit tried to keep him out, and
this too, when the rambunctiohs George
himself had county committee proxy
from the GlanavoD member.
It Isn't necessary for the RECORD to
defend Sheriff Wade. He has lived in
this region long enough, and is we'll and
favorably enough known, to turn aside
with little effort the shafts of malice
launched by any squirt who HAPPENS to
be set down temporarily in Emmons
County by townsite speculator; for the
purpose of pushing that SPECTATORS in
terests, even where they come In conflict
with the people of his own town: Fur.
thermore, Mr.. Wade's letter Of last week
shows that the sheriff is perfectly able to
brush off all human fleas and snats that
may assail him. Big Douglas, or Little
Douglas, or both, will find themselves
with mammoth contract otl hand In an
attempt to put one Of theit efeatutes into
the official shoes of VIM. V. Wade. And
| don't YOU forget it, sonny.

A STEAM LAUNDRY,
The Establishment of One as Good as
Assured in HALEY.

Something definite is at last about
to be done in the matter of supplying
us with steam laundry. Yesterday,
an understanding was reached be-
tween James E. Campbell and Reu-
ben Menas, and the two agreed to
unite their experience and form a CO.
partnership for the purpose of equip
ping and operating steam laundry.
Messrs. Campbell & Menas have had
considerable experience in the bust
ness, Mr.. Campbell (who is a first
class machinist) having had charge of
the mechanical department of steam
laundry for years, and Mr.. Menas bav-
ing conducted the business depart
ment of another for years.
The firm therefore possesses the
requisite experience; it also has the
capital required, which is only about
$4,000. A steam laundry is therefore
as good as secured.
With a properly conducted steam
laundry in operation here, the heather
washeeman will assuredly have to
"go," and his brethren of the pots
and kettles will follow suit.
