Wedding in Hesper Township.

Last Wednesday at the home of the
BRIDES prents, Mr. and Mrs. Andrew
Barth, in Hesper township, occurred a
delightful wedding, in which Miss
Lizzie Barth was united in marriage
tonMr. Charles Bryant, of Dubuque,
Kas. Rev. K. Seehus performed the
ceremony, and the bride was attended
by Misses Julia Barth and Mary Stos-
koff, the groom by Charles Barth and
John Vending. After congratula-
tions, the afternoon was spent in a
very pleasant manner, with dancing,
conversation and other amusements
for the entertainment of all. A sump-
tuous wedding feast was spread, and
served to the guests, and the day was
altogether most happy one. Several
from Decorah were in attendance,
including K. /. Haugen, W. B. Reed,
Frank Low, o. NJ. Drexel, Henry
Gremm, Ed. Bear, Ed. Sellman, d.
Stevens, Emil Rosenthal and wife,
and the families of H. A. Gremm and
Sam Blaess.
The happy bride was reared to
womanhood in Hesper township, and
is a young lady who is highly thought
of by all her acquaintances. The
groom is young farmer and is we'll
to-do and highly esteemed at his
home in Kansas and wherever known.
The newly married couple will make
their home at Dubuque, Kas. Their
many friends join us in congratula-
tions

1t is again proven that America was
discovered by Norsemen instead of a
greasy Spaniard, as history has been
trying to make US believe. The burial
place of Thorwald Ericsson has been
found near Hampton, N. H., where
the remains were consigned to mother
earth in the year 1904 Old Morse
sages describe the place of burial as
we'll as the huge stone with the three
crosses and those who would wrest
the honor from these to whom they
rightfully belong should cease their
efforts in this direction.
Columbus would never have suspect
ed that there was great land to the
westward had he not come in contact
with the defendants of those who
through the old sages had handed
their information down through the
few hundred intervening years. -Ex.

are kept as red in the face as Holsters
from bushes caused by the shower of
boquets from their factional admirers
and defenders. 1t is a condition mot

MEETS AN AWFUL DEATH.
Albert SeyersOn Crushed to Death by a
Train at OSsian Friday Night.
CUT TO PIECES BY CARS.
Attempts to Board a Moving Train on the
Milwaukee. and Loses Limb and
Arm, Besides Being Otherwise
Badly Cut Up.

When the news reached Decorah
last Friday evening that Albert Sever.
son, Of this city, had been very seri-
ously injured by the cars at Ossian and
that in all probability he could not
live, it cast gloom of sorrow over
the city, with heartfelt sympathy for
the bereaved relatives.
Albert went to Ossian Thursday
evening, to be on hand Friday morn
ing for the street fair, and he spent
the day with friends until evening,
when he expected to come home. He
was standing ON the street talking
with friends when the Milwaukee ac-
commodation train started west for
Calmar. Albert seeing the train move,
said to those near by that he must
catch that train, as he had to be at
home the next day, and made a run
for it. reaching the coach when it
was three or four blocks away from
the depot. He made grab for the
step railing, but seemed to miss it,
and was borne under the wheels of
the car, his left limb and arm being
crushed, an ugly cash cut in his side,
another in his skull, besides scratches
and cuts all over the body. He was
picked up and Drs. Mackin and Geist
called, who, with DR.. Lynch of Law
Ter administering the anaesthetic,
amputated the leg and arm, dressed
the other wounds, and watched over
him carefully, doing everything in
their power to relieve his suffering
The family were sent for and drove
to Ossian as fast as possible taking
Dr. Woodward with them, and were
with him until he passed away, at
3 80 O'Clock the next morning.
Albert Sew ,ur Severson, son of
Mr.. and M . A. r. Severson, was
born in Decorah, Dec. 10, 1876, and
has spent his life here. A year or so
ago he started in business with the
restaurant he was conducting at the
time of bis death. He was an indus
trious, genial, kindly dispositioned
young man, and easily made friends,
many of whom are grief stricken at his
awful death, just at the threshold of
manhood
The remains were brought to De-
corah on Saturday, and the funeral
services held from the family home
on Main street yesterday afternoon at
two O'Clock, conducted at the house
by Rev. Rett E. Olmstead, of Unity
church, and at the grave by the De.
corah Lodge of Elks, with interment
in Phelps cemetery.
