James Mayburn's Romance Comes to
an Unhappy End at Fort Dodge.
Special to Times-Republican.
Fort Dodge, Aug. 16.-James Mayburn,
an employe Of the Diamond Match Com
pany, left on late train last evening
for his home and place of business, with
a heart of lead, due to the tickle cupid
who had brought him to the city OF stuc-
co for bride who at the Last moment,
said no, after giving him reason to hope
that she would be his. The trip to the
city was brought about by a slip Of pa
per containing his name and address.
which he thoughtlessly placed in box
OF matches at the factory. The box came
to Fort Dodge and was delivered from
the grocery to one of the prominent res
licences Of the city. The kitchen maid
opened the box and brought forth the
slip. and just for fun wrote to the adj
dress given on the slip. The letter
brought reply and soon after letters
were coming and going every few days.
The matter finally reached the point
where Mayburn proposed, and his reply
brought him the assurance that IL he
was suitable there would be no further
obstacle to their marriage. A time was
arranged for his coming and few eve
nings ago the rear porch of the house in
Fort Dodge was occupied by maiden
dressed in her gayest and most becom-
ing finery. A young man with nervous
step stopped at an address given him.
But alas. the best laid plans 20 mice
and men gang aft aglee.' Mayburn So
journed in the city for day or two and
left last evening.

Special to Times Republican.
! Thompson, Aug 16.-H. C. Mortenson,
one Of our most highly respected young
business men, was almost instantly
killed yesterday evening by the explo-
son Of dynamite. Mr.. Mortenson is en-
Gagged in the windmill and pump busi-
ness and was at work on the farm OF OIL
liver Bowder, endeayoring to loosen the
casing In an old we'll by the use of dyna-
mite, when he met death. In stsKor-
vible manner. He had dropped two or
three sticks OF the deadly explosive a
distance OF about sixty feet into the
casing and none Of them exploded. AS, a
last resort he dropped heavier charge
and 1t exploded in the casing at q point
about eighteen inches above the we'll
platform with terrific force, bursting the
casing into small pieces, which flew in
every direction. One Of the largest pieces
struck Mr.. Mortenson in the back just
below the ribs and cut him nearly In
two. He died within a few minutes
while being brought to town, is only
words being, My God! Take me to my
wife!" Mr.. Mortenson was very pops
sular young man and his tragic death
has cast deep gloom over our little
city. He leaves a young wife and baby
besides numerous relatives.
