A PREMATURE BLAST.
From grsl page.

Froelich not having any on his place,
the two decided to use gun powder.
About ten ounces of the latter were
poured down into the hole and HUM
erkoch was engaged in packing it
down tightly, when the charge was
exploded.
The explosion filled Huhnerkoch's
face full of powder and when he
reached town two hours later his face
was badly swollen and there were two
or three bruises over the eyes and on
other portions of the face. DIR. Finn
stated that the eyes were not injured.
Huhnerkoch's left hand was burned to
charred crisp from the tip of the little
finger back to the wrist. The bones
were not injured.
Froelich was standing directly over
Huhnerkoch when the explosion oc-
cured. 1t appears that small stone
and a charge of the powder entered
his left eye, but otherwise he was not
injured. Froelich could not see out OF
the left eye Monday afternoon and
DR.. Finn was then of the opinion
that the eye was injured SO badly as
to cause an entire loss of sight.
Huhnerkoch is the son of w. H.
Huhnerkoch, the well-kown farmer OF
Redwood Falls township. Froelich
came here from CORTLAND, Nicollet
county, last fall, shortly after he pur-
chased the farm from Reiber. Both
of the young men were recently mar
ried to Muetzel> sisters of Kintire or
Redwood Falls townships.

SENSATIONAL CASE.
Divorce Case of Osher VS.. Osher to
be Tried Here.

The sensational Osher di-
vorce case, in which Vim. Osh-
er is plaintiff and Anna w. Osh-
err is defendant, and which or
iginated in Hennepin county,
has been brought to Redwood
county for trial, on a change OF
Venue, secured by County At
torney Clague, who is attorney
for the defendant.
VIM. Osher resides in Mime
apolis at the present time while
his wife, Anna w. Osher, with
her two daughters, the only
children, reside in Lamberton.
At one time the Oshers were
the owners of the private bank
ing institution at Lamberton,
out of which grew the present
State Bank of Lamberton.
They were large property own
ers on the South Side and it is
estimated that the joint estate
is worth nearly $4,000, of which
the plaintiff calls for a division.
This property consists of mon
ey, real estate, mortgages, etc,
situated in this and Hennepin
counties.
AS grounds for a divorce Osh
er first sets up the charge of
desertion and then alleges cruel
and inhuman treatment. He
states that at one time Mrs.
Osher attacked him with a pair
of scissors, stabbed him with
the same, and threatened to
kill him. At another time she
attacked him with a razor,
slashed him and again threat
ened to kill him. He alleges
that these attacks with scissors
and razor were frequently
made. He contends that she
has made life miserable for him
by calling him bad names,
thief, rascal, forger, ETC., and de-
Claring that he was unfaithful
to his marriage vows. About
a year ago, according to Osher's
tale of woe, she caused to be
published a malicious article
in the Lamberton Leader, for
bidding any one to do business
with him.
The defense filed it's answer
to the complaint Tuesday
morning. The answer is
general denial of all the charges,
and alleges infidelity on the
part of Osher, as counter
grounds for a divorce being
granted to the defendant.
1t is stated by the defense
that it has letters written by
Osher and from him which
will prove the charge of I'M
faithfulness to the satisfaction
of the Court. The case will be
tried at the May term of the
district court of this county,
and will be for the jury to de-
termine. 1t will undoubtedly
be filled with sensational mat

EASTER SUNDAY.
Churches in this City Observed it
Appropriately.

The glory of Eastertide, with all it's
attendant benediction, peace and
beauty rested at the Episcopal church
last Sunday. Without single excep-
ton no church in this city was so pro-
fusely and beautifully decorated. The
Altar, with it's crosses and necessary
paraphernalia was exquisitely covered
with white Nicotine entwined with the
climbing cyprus vine. On the west
side of the church, Immediately in
front of the chancel, was towering
bank of palms and potted plants with
their numberless and fragrant bios
SONS, and tended to make this spot
appear as an ever-blooming flower
garden. On the baptismal fount was
the Cross of Christ completely imbed-
ded in vines and cut flowers. In front
of the choir stand swayed numerous
Gala lilies and palms, while the organ
was made attractive with the Easter
lilies and roses, so appropriate for this
particular day. Promptly at 1Oa am.
the peals of the organ sent forth
beautiful and voluminous Easter Vol
untary, with Mrs. G.. R. Pease as Or
ganist, and could not help but inspire
all in the one thought that Christ GER
tainly had risen this Easter day. The
beautiful and impressive Episcopal
service was deliberately carried out
with anthems, solos, responsive sing
ing and chants. Rev. Knowlton was
at his best and delivered an excellent
sermon on "Our Risen Lord" Com
munion followed the sermon.
In the Presbyterian church potted
plants, Easter lilies and roses covered
a small table in front of the pulpit,
while on stands to the right and left
and on the organ we're several bunch
es of beautiful flowers. A choir COM
posed of Mesdames Patterson and
johnson and Messrs. Peabody, Ken
ney, johnson and A. B. Halves rem
dered several anthems. A male quar-
tette composed of the four gentlemen
named above rendered "Rock of Ages"
Mrs. Patterson also sang solo. The
subject of the sermon by Rev. Sinclair,
was taken from the story of the resur-
rection of Christ, "He is Risen" After
the morning service the pastor gave
the younger scholars of the Sunday
school an Easter address in the lee
ture room of the church. The even
ing service was conducted by the
Junior Endeavor society, in charge
of Mrs. O. L. Dornberg. After re-
sponsive reading and singing by the
children Ella Lyss gave a recitation
followed by song by six little girls;
a recitation by Tracey Ferris; solo
by Pearl Mckay; recitation by Ruby
Curtis; duet by Mary Thune and
Myra Curtis, and five-minute talk
by Rev. John Sinclair constituted the
rest of the programme. Miss Myrtle
Cooper acted as organist. After the
taking of a collection for the Junior
society the service closed
