A Narrow Escape.

An accident happened to Postmaster
Birch and family last Sunday after
noon which luckily did not prove seri-
Gus. They were driving along East
Becker avenue, and when near the
Parkins residence the horse stumbled
over piece of board lying on the
street. The spot happened to be a
rather steep incline and the fall of
the horse resulted in throwing Gladys
over the dashboard, but she was soon
rescued by her father. In the excite
ment of the moment Mrs. Birch got her
foot entangled in the wheel, and re-
ceived severe wrenching. Mr.. Birch
managed to prevent the rig from
further progress and extricated his
wife from her perilous position. The
harness was demolished as we'll as
part of the buggy. A nearby rig lent
assistance and took the unfortun ates
home. Mrs. Birch's injuries, though
not serious, proved very painful, and
the party was lucky to escape as it
did.

Delightfully."- Entertained.

A social event which will long be re-
membered by those who participated
was the dancing party given last Fri
day evening, at Bonde's hall, by DR..
and Mrs. E. II. Frost. About $50
guests were present in response to the
Invitations, and enjoyed the hospital
lty OF the host and hostess until a late
hour. DR.. and Mrs. Frost were as
sisted in receiving by Mr.. and Mrs. G..
II. Pietsch, Mr.. and Mrs. M. Otter
ness, Mrs. A. F. Mantor and Mr..
VIM. S. Frost. The receiving hour
was from nine O'Clock, and shortly
after the first arrival of the guests the
delightful strains of Anderson's or
chestra were heard throughout the
hall. With such excellent music,
those who did not participate in the
dancing were content to remain and
listen to the orchestra.
The different 70 oms were nicely ar
ranged for the comfort of the guests.
The southeast part of the hall was fit
ed up as ''cozy corner" with couch
es and sofa pillows, the colors being
in red. In the banquet room, which
had been nicely carpeted, light refresh
ments were served on small tables.
In one part of the room frappe was
served by Master Frank Adams, in
the true style of caterer.
A number of very pretty gowns were
worn for the occasion, and some of
the guests appeared in full evening
dress.
The following were among the out
of-town guests present: Mr.. Frank
Thornton and Misses Bessie and Ma
bel Thornton, Benson; VIM. S. Frost,
Minneapolis; Lewis Ward, St. Paul;
Lewis Lien, Graceville; James Con.
don, Shakopee.

LUMBER.

Local lumber dealers report live
ly business. There will be a great
deal of building done in and around
Willmar this summer. Lumber is
quoted somewhat higher than last fall,
but the mills have now opened up
and there is no likelihood of any
further advance. Our dealers are
quoting lumber at very narrow
margin and farmers who contemplate
building will find it to their advan-
tage to give the Willmar firms a
chance to figure on their bill.

Iu last weeks issue was an item re-
garding the removal of c. A. Bak-
lund's family to Eagle Lake, and that
he offers his village property for sale.
Mr.. Baklund informs us that the item
has been understood by number to
mean that he will dispose of lis busi-
ness at this point. It is only his resi-
dence property that he will sell. In
justice to Mr.. Baklund we gladly make
this statement so as to correct all false
Impressions. The removal of the FAM

his business plans, and he will still

TOPICS OF THE DAY.

We regret that we haven't re-.
ceived copy OF the High Sheriff's
annual report as we would like to
illustrate our remarks with some OF
the sts'istics in the report, We
notice that the Republican keeps on
barping on its old theory that the
efficiency OF q police force is illus
trated by the number OF arrests
made and that the numerical
strength Of the force should be
regulated in proportion to the popu-
lation, regardless OF the area to be
under police surveillance aud pro.
lection. That faw orrssts are made
By the individual police officer 10
Honolulu during a year in compari-
son to those made 10 Omaha and
Western States indicates simply
that owing TO the high standing
an excellent organization OF the
HoDolulu force there are fewer
crimes and violations of the law
committed here than in the cities
with which the Republican wishes
to compare us. We believe that the
first duty OF the police force is to
prevent the mission OF crime,
and we feel confident that to the
we'll known strength Of the force in
Honolulu is due the email percent
age of violations Of the law in pro-
portion TO tho population. L. it
not better for the community to
have 100 able officers preventing
breach OF peace, or commiss OF OF
misdemeaDors or crimes than
having half that f,rce chasing
.vildoers all over the place after tho
crime has been committedl There
is OF course a criminal element in
every city and it is due to the etHci.
ency OF our local force that it is not
felt hire to any great extent. But
reduce the force so that the
"toughs" no longer fear the police
otiieers who are not omuiprasept,
aud our Paradise will soou bs 3
