this report can readily ascertain which
companies are organized and operated
for the benefit of it's officers, and
which for the benefit of the insured.
When company's losses paid bears a
relation of IS per cent. to it's total dis
bursements, as in the case of the Park
Region, which has done extensive bust
ness in this county, we would prefer to
take our chances against hail storms
than hail agents. Many patrons,in COM
panies of like character, are required
to pay SO cents per 500 of insurance
to have their policies cancelled, and
they find it expensive to withdraw and
unwise to continue. As result of such
fraudulent methods we find the farm
ers generally adverse to taking out
hail insurance.
The only hail insurance company of
the State, operated at the minimum
cost, is the Farmers United Township
Mutual of Pipestone, MINI. 1t was
organized by the Farmers Mutual
Fire company of the State. 1t has no
high salaried officers or agents. Every
cent raised by assessment is devoted
to the payment of losses and cost of
adjusting the same. The company
paid its losses in full last year for an
assessment of one and three fourths
per cent. Every farmer wishing cheap
and reliable insurance should apply
to the secretary of his own fire insur-
ance company, who is the general
county agent. A. D. STEWART.

Harvest Festival.

The people, old and young, met on
Wednesday in Mullany's grove at
Plymouth Rock to celebrate, and for a
days recreation, after securing the
bountiful harvest OF 1898. We should
estimate the number present at from
1900 to 1900. The place where held
is beautiful grass plat with sufici-
emit number of trees to make a good
shade, for the people as we'll as for
their teams. A large pavilion had
been provided with a row Of seats
around its side, a stage erected and
music provided for the enjoyment of
the young people and about o'clock
the festive scene was opened by them
IN the fascination of the cotIllion. The
music as it swelled out through the
grove possessed peculiar charm even
for those whose feet were to old to
keep step to its time. Several stands
we're provided where refreshments,
consisting of lemonade, melons, fruit
ice cream and cigars could be obtain
ed; no beer Or. intoxicants being on
the ground, and a more civil, and or
derly party could not be found.
A bountiful dinner was served to all
who desired 1t with ample amount re-
naming for those who might remain
for the dance right royal supper.
The day was an ideal one, the sun
bright and luminous, the breeze as it
was waited through the grove cool
and refreshing. About two o'clock a
game OF base ball was commenced be-
tween the rival clubs, lasting for near
ly three hours, resulting in score of
Is to 2. We did not learn the names
OF the two contesting clubs.

Carl Bundrick Dead,

Last Monday morning, August 10Th,
Mrs. Bundrick received dispatch from
Lieut. j. o. Yelter, Chicamaugua Camp,
Georgia, saying, "Carl died this morning.
Shall we send remains?"
The Monday before, Mrs. Bundrick re-
ceived letter from Carl stating that as
peace was declared he expected to come
home soon, butwould send her dispatch
before be started. When the telegram
came Monday, she received it with joy
GUS expectations Of again seeing her boy;
alas, the fond mothers joy wrs turned to
agony as she read of his death. She at
once ordered his body sent here, but her
telegram was not received and the Lieu
tenant sent second dispatch. Wednes-
day morning telegram came saying,
Shipped remains Tuesday morning.
Will write." With this meagre iDforma-
ton the anxious mother has lived in
eart-broken suspense concerning the
cause OF her sons death.
Carl Bundrick was born in Germany,
August 81, 1880. Seven years ago the
first day OF next month the family came
to America. Carl was confirmed in the
German Lutheran church of Creeco, he
was always an industrious boy, working
on the farm and giving his wages to his
mother. Last spring he began work on
the railroad at Faribault, Mimi, where
he enlisted the first week in June in Co.
B. 18th MINI. Vols. INIT. During his
visit to Cresco after he enlisted, he said
to his mother who was mourning because
he was going to the army, "Don't cry
any more ma, I love to think that I am
going to fight for our country. I can
help you more in the army than I could
working elsewhere, and will send you
all the money / get" He went back to
his company June Dist; orders had been
received during his absence to go to
Chicamauga, and June %, on the 10 p .
m. train, the company passed through
Cresco. Carl's friends did not know it,
however, and were denied the sad yet
pleasurable opportunity Of saying last
good bye. He called boy from the
depot platform as he took the flower
from his coat and charged him to give it
to his mother that night, with his loving
good bye.
The death Of this young soldier has
brought the war home to our citizens as
nothing else has done, and all hearts are
moved with regrets and sympathy. He
is the fret Of the brave boys from this
vicinity to lay down life in the service OF
country.

A Short Pastoral Letter.

Beloved in the Lord, we have much
to be thankful for. a house to house
visitation gives us sixty two com-
municants and about thirty baptized
members. There are also a number
Of persons who take kindly interest
in our church and it's services who
are not members In any way, Let US
hope and pray that they will come
more and NOR Q interested until they
see their way more clearly to unite
with US. AS the permanent growth
Of the parish depends very much
upon the interest the members take
in it, suffer the word OF exertation.
Life is born of sacrifice, and in this
school We must be trained If we would
reach the blessed end, God in Christ.
Avail yourselves of every opportunity
Of communing with God in His holy
Temple; enter the sacred place Of
worship not in haste and confusion,
but with secret preparation and
Cody purpose. Engage in medlta-
ton, give heed to the service, to the
sacred scriptures as they are read, to
the sermon and the music. Always
be ready to take and do your part.
In the light of truth, examine your
own hearts, find your weak points,
and strengthen your purpose to
correct them. Be not without the
grace Of God which is yours through
the public worship and private de-
votion. Encourage him whom under
God has the charge of the parish by
your presence at all the services and
In your private prayers. Pray for
one another-and may the blessing Of
God fill your hearts and lives with
joy and peace-and the Holy Ghost
comfort you In all the relations Of
life-and eternal life and bliss be your
reward as a diciple Of the Lord Christ.
Faithfully your Pastor,
A. V. GoRRELL.

MURDER IN NEW YORK.
by nm Unknown Brute - Lead
Pipe the Weapon.

New York, Aug. 17.-Emeline c..
Reynolds, a young unmarried woman
about 81 years of age, was found muir
dered i'll the Grand hotel, at Thirty
first street and Broadway, in this city,
Tuesday. Her death had evidently re-
suited from repeated blows on the
head with piece of lead pipe. The
crime had been committed some time
between midnight and four o'clock a..
m., but the police have not, as yet, been
able to definitely determine whether
the motive was one of robbery or other
wise, though they are inclined 10 the
former belief. After some hours Of in
vestigation, and upon statements given
by the mother of the dead girl, DIR.
Samuel J. Kennedy, young dentist
Of this city, was arrested, and is being
held upon suspicion of the murder.
The fact that not only the murdered
woman was robbed, but another rob-
berry was committed on the same floor,
incline the police to the belief that the
woman was killed in an attempt to pre-
vent robbery.

The Annexat,on of Te,a..

The annexation of Texas brought on
the Mexican war; That brought a large
addition to our. territory. 1t was
necessary to settle the question of
slavery In the annexed territory, and
this opened the slavery question anew.
Both Of the old parties were after
awhile split asunder by the debate, and
the question of slavery or no slavery in
the territories became the leading
issue in our politics. In 16 years from
the annexation of Texas, this chain
OF causes had plunged the country into
the most tremendous civil war in the
history of the world. In just 20 years
the war had ended in the entire Adolf
ton of slavery in the United States.
Thus, the annexation of Texas brought
about unforeseen results and changed
the history of the continent.
