Below is given part of the work
done for the community by the home
newspaper, and much more could be
truthfully added, but enough is given
to show why your town paper should
receive a hearty support and liberal
patronage: "Your paper tells you
when to go to church, to county,
circuit and probate court, and when
to send your children to school and
everywhere else you want to go; it
tells you who is dead, married sick,
born and many other things you like
to hear; it calls your attention to all
public enterprise, advocates the best
of schools, laws and order in your
town; it records the marriage of your
daughter, the death of your son, the
illness of your wife free of charge; it
booms the town, builds your business,
whether you patronize it Or not it sets
forth the advantages and attractions
of the town and invites immigration
and is the first to welcome new corners.
Time forbids to enumerate half what
it does for its own people, and yet we
sometimes hear man say his home
paper is not half as good as some city
paper that has no interest in his
business. The home paper is often
neglected 0-Glenwood Herald.

Frlghtful Death.

GRAND Forks, N. d., April 4 =
Especial to the Minneapolis Tribune:l
Conductor Herbert Reynolds, run
mig on the Lakota divisin of the Great
Northern, was instantly killed at
Ojata this afternoon. In binding
snow storm his train, an eastbound
freight, ran past the station, the en-
gineer being unable to see the station
before reaching it. As the caboose
passed the depot Reynolds jumped
from the train and ran in for orders.
In the meantime the engineer had
stopped the train and was backing to
the depot. Reynolds having secured
his orders, ran to meet the train, which
he could not see, nor could the train
men on the caboose see him. The
caboose struck Reynolds on the head,
throwing him on the track, three cars
passing over him. His neck was broken
and there were frightful gashes about
the head and shoulders. The remains
was brought to this city and en-
balmed. Reynolds was unmarried.
He leaves a mother and sister at
Morris who were dependent on him."
Burt Reynolds was well known in
Morris, as he lived here with his
parents a number of years: and he
was known as one of the best boys in
town. He was exceptionally upright
in character, and true and faithful to
his widowed mother. He was for
some years in the employ of the Great
Northern rail road company and the
best proof of their exaltated opinion
of him was, they made him conductor
as soon as he became of age.
His bereayed mother has cur sincere
sympathy. His funeral took place
from the Methodist Church at this
place ON Wednesday April 9th.
