Startling Contrast In Memorials OF

Special to- The Journal.
Appleton, Wis, Jan. 1.-two marble
slabs, erected to the memory OF deceased
husbands of Mrs. Herman Brueckner,
standing side by side and differing only IN
Inscriptions and carving, constitute the
UNIQUE occupancy Of q lot in Woodlawn
cemetery in this city. On one slap'
erected to the memory of her first nus

pointing upwards, and, together win the
name Of the diseased, date Of birth ana

the other slab erected to the memory OF
her second husband, is carved similar
hand, but with the index finger pointing
downward. Besides the name OF the de-
ceased, his date Of birth and death, there
Is no other inscription.
While the two tombstones have oc-
cupied their position for two years ana
have been the source OF great deal OF
Interesting comment, the motive for which
they were thus carved and erected has
not until recently been known.
Mrs. Herman Brueckner, who Is resld-
ing on a farm few miles from this city,
was the wife Of the dead men. Since
their demise, she has married her pres
ent husband, Herman Brueckner, who was
a, suffer for her hand at the time OF her
marriage to Sielaff, the second husband.
Inspired by Jealousy and anger al the
fact that he was second choice to Sie1afr
in the eyes Of the one he loved, Brueck-
ner swore vengeance. Promptly upon the
death of his old-time rival and antagon-
list, Brueckner again assured the widow
that he could make her life happy, and In
few months they were married.
Now came the opportunity for revenge.
Being stone and marble cutter by trade,
he quickly developed the idea of erecting
slab similar to the one which his wife
had erected to the memory Of her first
husband, with the exception OF the direc-
tion OF the pointing hand and the elimina-
ton of the inscription. Realizing the
fact THAT she had not been very happy
with her second husband and that he on
many occasions had been mean and cruel
to her, 1t took but little persuasion to
secure the permission Of his wife to build
the slab according to his own ideas and
wishes. Accordingly, the stone was made
by Brueckner apd has since occupied po-
sition alongside of and in direct contrast
to the one erected to the memory Of the
first husband. -.

April term. ". y
The Duluth Superior Traction company
has settled the taxes which were in dis
pute for 1900 by paying 81 800 into the city
treasury under the gross earnings law.
The transfer arose from the fact that the
new company secured control Of the road
during the latter part of 1900, and paid
taxes but for that part of the year. The
city attempted to hold it for taxes for
the whole year, and the above settlement
was finally reached.

to burglarize the Great Northern Bottling
works, was in superior court yesterday

of not guilty and he was dismissed. John
Curran was found guilty of larceny from

Last Saturday was one of those Pc
culiarly sultry and oppressive days
when the weather wise cock their
prophetic eye and consult the records
for cyclones and hail storms in the
past and predict something for the
future. The clouds kept getting heav-
Ter and heavier as the day advanced
until toward evening when those who
were near the storm center felt the
change of barometer that meant a
storm. About five thirty-five O'Clock
the citizens of KimballtoA and vicini-
ty noticed cloud following the
storm that had a peculiar rolling
movement, and hung like cylinder
from large base above. Then from
the cylinder there dropped peculiar
funnel shaped cloud which all Instant
ly recognized as cyclone. 1t passed
along for few moments in the air,
travelling northward, and struck the
earth few rods west of Andrew Lar
sens new house on the west side of
the road, straight north of Kimball-
ton about mile and three quarters.
1t moved the house slightly, and at
the home of Nicholi Jorgensen, just
north, moved the barn on its founda-
ton, took the top from off the corn
crib and twisted great limbs from the
trees in the yard and uprooted trees
in the orchard. The home of A. G.
Christensen next came in its path and
the house was left alone but the barn,
corn cribs and out buildings wrecked,
the boardf, ETC., being scattered for a
quarter OF mile to the north and
east. Here Old Mr.. Sorensen, who
lives with them thought he could get
to the barn and close the doors and
back to the cave where the rest were
but failed and was pinoned beneath
the heavy timbers of the barn until
after the storm had passed when he
was released and found to be bruised
about the legs and chest and Monday
was thought to be in critical condi-
ton.
From here the cyclone veered lit
tie east to the road and then went
straight north. Mrs. Rosenbeck, not
over two hundred yards north and
about fifty west, was but slightly
