Herman Slewetcke, a resident of Pike
Lake, was br ought to the city Saturday
suffering from injuries received while
at work at Barden's camp near Hatley.
He was driving a team of horses hitched
to a load of logs, when one OF the chains
broke, he failing to the ground with
some of the logs. He was struck on the
head by one of them and his cheek bone
very badly crushed, and the sight of his
right optic destroyed. He was attended
by DR.. II. l.. Rosenberg.
A dancing party was held Saturday
evening by the members of Marathon
Encampment No. 70, which was fully
enjoyed by themselves and their fami-
lies. Cones orchestra dispensed the
music, which relieved Dr. La Count,
he usually being called upon to furnish
the music on such occasions. The
ladies remembering the fact that their
husbands sometimes get hungry
brought baskets of eatables with them,
which was devoured with a relish. 1t
was late hour before the dancers de-
parted for their homes.
The farmers in the vicinity of Athens,
thinking that they were being charged
too high prices for goods at the store
of that place, recently purchased the
same, each one in the enterprise taking
q certain number of shares of stock. A
manager has been secured who had a
small stock of goods, which he added
to that of the Athens store. The farm
ers will conduct the store on the CO.
operative plan, claiming that in this
way they can reduce the price of goods
considerably, getting what they use for
their own consumption at little above
cost price. Whether the venture will
be a success remains to be seen.
A sad accident resulting in the death
of Herman Race occurred late Wednes-
day afternoon at Christ O'Connors
camp. Race felled large tree which
struck the limb of a dry hemlock stub.
In some unaccountable manner the
broken limb instead of falling with the
tree, whipped out striking the unfortun-
ate man across the head. The skull
was badly fractured and death resulted
shortly after the accident. Herman
Race was the second son of Xaver Race
of the town of Emmett. The young man
was born in Germany ninteen years ago
but has been a resident of this county
ever since he was three months old. He
made his home with his father, was a
steady, hard working, Industrious boy
and devoted to his home. A father,
mother and three brothers and two
sisters are left to mourn him. The
funeral takes place this morning from
st. Patrick'S Church at Halder.-Mosi-
| Times.
