John B. CordeIl Insane.

1t IS a matter of sincere regret that
the HERALD has to record the melan
choly fact that John B. Cordell, one
of Ashley's good farmers, is insane,
and has been taken to the asylum at
Fergus Falls. He had been acting
strangely for a few days when sudden
ly he became violently insane with a
religious mania, he believing that he
was about to be crucified. He was
taken into custody by Deputy Sh, riff
Minnette, with the assistance of Frank
Mann, and taken to ST. Cloud.
He was examined in the probate
court and adjusted insane by Drs. HUI
bert and Mcclure. who conducted the
examination before Judge Calhoun.
His age is thirty-six, he is married
and the father of eight children. 1t is
said that thirteen years ago he fell
from handcar and struck his head
on pile of rocks.
He seized bottle of aconite from a
table at his home and got the contents
of the poison into his mouth. His at
tendants however grasped him by the
throat and prevented him swallowing
it. Deputy Minnette took him to Fer
gus Falls and placed him in the hos
pital there I-

The medals were presented to the

County Attorney Hilton making the
presentations with appropriate re-
! marks. The sOci Il gathering was
very laraely attended. and following
| the presentations the evening was
spent in dancing and in listening to
musical selections and impromptu adj
dresses. Refreshments were also
served.

FIELD DAY.
Sank Centre Surrenders the Cup
to the Alexandria High School.
Store.

The annual Inter-High School Ath-
letic contest between Alexandria, Fer
gus Falls and Sank Centre occurred on
Saturday last at Fergus Falls, and it
was very largely attended. About
thirty five persons attended from this
city, among them being Prof. Stanton
and number of teachers, members of
the Atheletic Association, interested
scholars and citizens.
Sank Centre surrendered the cup to
Alexandria,, but by way of explanation
it may be truthfully said that our boys
were Handicapped in that compulsory
vaccination was getting in its work
with vigor, several of the boys being
physically unable to do themselves
justice. This WAS notably the case
with James Irsfeld, who is acknowl-
edgedly the best all-around man in
tie team.
The visitors are enthusiastic in their
expr, ,ions.of appreciation of the hos
pitality accorded them by the Fergus
Falls people. Their homes were open
ed to them for two days, and they left
nothing undone calculated TO add to
the pleasure of their guests.
For the following account of the con-
test the HERALD is indebted to the
Fergus Fails DAZZLING Journal:
The annual field day tournament of
the Park Region High School Athlet-
ic association occurred in this city on
Saturday afternoon before one Of the
largest audiences that has ever as
sembled on the Driving Park grounds.
The contests began at q p. M, and
lasted until about 1880. Good records
were made and the events through out
were watched with great interest.
Alexandria sent a strong team and
readily won both cup and pennant,
scoring oyer fifty points in the various
contests. Page, Pratt and Mcneil
proved themselves skillful athletes
and won the hearty admiration Of their
opponents as we'll as of their friends.
Sank Centre was also represented
by some good men, Keller and David
son lining up with the best on the field.
Sank Centre scored something over
thirty points In the contests.
The Fergus boys made good show.

lack Of prastice, Jensen was the star
