In memory OF our darling, James
r. Bundick, who departed this life,
August 2Sth, 1908, aged 10 years, .
months and 10 days.
All is gloomy now,
Our darling one Is gone,
God saw fit to call you,
To His eternal home.
You have left us weeping and sad,
Your daily loss TO mourn,
No one can fill your place,
But Jesus, and Him alone.
Though your days on earth were few,
Your little task well done,
You never murmured and complain
ed,
Though great your sufferings were.
Lonely the home and sad the hours
Since our dear Jimmie has gone,
But brighter home than ours,
In Heaven is now his own.
Many hours have passed and still we
miss you,
Friends may think the wound has
healed.
But they little know the sorrow.
That lies within our hearts con-
cealed.
OFT we wander to the graveyard,
Flowers to strew with tender care,
On the grave of our loved one,
Darkness finds them resting there.
BY his mamma, grand-mamma,
aunt and two brothers.
In loving remembrance Of our dar
ling mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Hopkins,
who departed this life April 20, 1908
in the 10th year Of her age.
Dear mother. could you but speak to
us,
And could you live again,
Our loving hearts would then be
healed,
But this we wish in vain.
Our hearts are sad and lonely,
Our grief to tell,
But the time will come to US so soon
That we may with you dwell.
Call not back the dear departed,
Anchored safe where sorrows are
DER,
On the border land we left her,
Soon to meet and part 40 more.
Far beyond this world Of sorrow,
Far beyond this world OF care,
We will find our darling mother,
There to meet to part no more.
By her three daughters.
Our darling, the little 8 weeks ole
son of Herbert and Clara Beloate
was taken September 18th, 1903.
God needed one more angel,
Amidst the shining band,
And 80 be bent with loving smiles,
And clasped our darling's hand.
BY his mamma and papa.

An appalling scene was witnessed
at the home OF Mr.. and Mrs. q 8.
Mears, of Messongo, August 9th, 1903,
when their oldest daughter, little
Ethel Adell, aged Z years, s months
and IA days, was rudely torn form the
bosom of her loving parents, by that
cruel monster, diphtheria, yet while
she suffered untold agonies, her last
look was wreathed in happy smiles,
for life had silently ebbed away, gent
ly bearing her little spirit to a cloud
less sky and thornless path. In re
flecting over the past we can see in
our vision-her mother sitting by the
organ playing some familiar strain,
and close by her side stands curly
haired Ethel, singing in her low,
sweet, childish voice, Tell 1t to
Jesus" her favorite song. Death has
grasped and claimed one that was
sincerely loved, by the entire COM
munity, thus leaving q melancholy
feeling over this vicinity, for one
glance at her sweet and sunny face,
was like ray OF sunshine, and none
knew Ethel, but to love her. Dear
est loved one we must commit thee
to thy Heavenly Fathers care, as he
has already borne thee so tenderly to
his tender loving bosom. May God
in His divine mercy heal the wound
ed hearts OF the bereaved parents are
the comments Of all.
IT'S hard to break that tender chord,
When love has bound the heart,
'Tis hard 80 hard to speak that word,
1--WE must forever part"
Dearest Ethel, we must lay thee,
In the peaceful graves embrace,
But thy memory will be cherished,
Till we see thy heavenly face.
A friend.

MA .IN:LAW VS. PLANT
Ella Russell Wants Damages From
Her son-in-Law's
Parents.
She Says They Beat Her on Ac-
count Of the Mar
riage.

Seldom in the annals of the Hennepin
county courts has there been more in
trcate tanele than that now being ex-
planned to a jury in Judge Brooks court
room: The title of the case is Ella G.
Russell against Louis Friedman and
Rachel Friedman and the plaintiff is ask
ing for $4,000 damages.
1t is a1case of gentle mother in-law
bringing suit against the Jewish father
and mother of her daughters husband.
She seeks to recover damages for injuries
she says she received in protecting the
young couple who married against the
wishes of the husbands parents. The
Young man is expected to appear as a WIT
ness against his parents.
. The two young people began keeping
company several months ago. This fact
became known to the IL iedrians who on
account of religious differences forbade
further communication. The two lovers
clandestinely met and finally were mar
ried.
Z They lived with the young wife's mother
and the parents of the young man.. it is
charged. ATTEMPTED to bring their son by
force back into the family fold. They Wis
tied the house of Mrs. Russell, and, ac-
cofding to her testimoney, were so en-
ragged at not finding Isaac, their son. they
beat and severely injured the bride s
mother; This led to--the4 arrest Of the
5Freidmans and the municipal court was
the stage for a continuation of the strife,
This did rot satisfy: the injured woman
however, and she has brought suit for
damages. The case is now up to the
Jury.

NO MORE LATE MAIL
Delay in Morning Delivery From
Chicago and Milwaukee Has
Been Remedied.
These Mails Will Be Carried Here
after on the Milwaukee,
Train No.. /.

The serious delays heretofore COM
planned of in the local delivery Of the
morning mails from Chicago and Milwau-
kee have been remedied by the efforts OF
Postmaster w. D. Hale. These mails
have been brought over the Milwaukee
road on train No. 81. 1T should arrive
here at 1856 a. M, but owing to the slow
almost daily from five minutes to several
hours. At the request Of Major Hale the
mails in question will henceforth be car
ried by train No. Il OF the Milwaukee
road. a train that arrives at 8 q. M, and
is invariably on time. Said the postmas-
ter this morning:
All thru the winter our eastern mail
the thru fast mail has arrived on the
Milwaukee train No. 81, which should
reach Minneapolis at 1885 a. m. But thai
train has been notably regular-regularly
behind time-anywhere from a few min
utes to two hours or even more
The delay has caused great inconven-
fence and has added to the labors Of the
postonice force. Numerous complaints
have reached the Office from all directions
The delays, as matter Of fact, occurred
east OF Chicago, and were not the fault
of the Milwaukee road.
1T was always noticeable, however
that train No. 1 Of the Milwaukee road
due at q. M, rolled in every morning or
the. dot; and 1t occurred to us that a,
least the Chicago and Milwaukee. mails
could be brought on No. !, thus doins
away with much Of the cause for com.

one LAST CAROUSE
Sheriff Said to Have Made Tanke
Drunk on His Way to
Prison,
investigation May End in Removal
z Of the Offending Of
fetal.

Governor Van SAINT will investigate the
alleged spree Of the tire esheriffs who ac-
alleged spree of the three sheriffs who ac-
penitentiary. It Is claimed that with the
idea of giving the murderer Of w elmer
.the time of his life'' before he began
serving his life sentence they kept him up
all last night in st. Paul, carousing In var
ious resorts. and plying him with liquor.
Sheriff Forsythe of st. James, where
Tanke was convicted, had charge Of the
prisoner. The sheriff of Nicollet county,
where the crime was committed. and the
sheriff Of Blue Earth county, accompanied
them. They reached ST. Paul Saturday
evening and registered at the Astoria, but
instead of going to bed started out to do
the town." and did not return until
o'clock Sunday morning. The party is
said to have attracted considerable atten-
ton everywhere, and Tanke was pointed
out to many as 1.-The man who killed Well
ner.''
The governor has called on Sheriff For
sythe for an explanation. If the charges
are substantiated he will probably appoint
a commission to investigate. It is a vio-
lation of law for an officer to furnish q
sion should find the conduct as gross as
reported there would be warrant for the
sheriff's removal from office.
The party slept Sunday morning and
took Tanke to the prison Sunday after
noon. There was no occasion for stopping
over in st. Paul. Warden Wolfer said to-
day that the prison was open to receive
commitments at any time of the day or
night, and Tanke could have been taken
over in a street car Saturday evening
1T does not seem possible said Gov
error Van SAINT to-day, 'tthat sheriff,
sworn to execute the law, could be guilty
OF so gross misconduct and violation Of
the law as to furnish prisoner with LIQUOR
on his way to prison. I shall investigate

HE BANKED IT AS AGENT
A. F. Kelley's Defense Is That He
Was Ready to Pay His
Principal.

Austin F. Kelley, the real estate man,
charged with embezzlement, will probably
know his fate within twenty four hours.
The case will go to the jury this after
noon. IS
The states case was finished by II a.
m. It consisted Of the testimony Of N. D.
Jennerson, the complaining witness, who
swore that he had owned mortgage for
which the defendant, as his agent, had
collected 1923, which he had appropriated
and refused to account for. A. D. O'Brien,
cashier of the Big Stone County bank,
at Gracevi1le, where the money had been
loaned. testified that he had collected the
1923 and sent it by draft to- Kelley. W.
J. Byrnes sWore, as assistant cashier OF
the Metropolitan bank. that this amount
had been deposited by Kelley about the
time 1t is said to have been sent him.
Victor Welsh, for the defendant, opened
the defense's case. He stated that the
defendant admitted collecting the money
and zdepositing 1t in the bank but he did
SO under the title of Austin r. Kelley
agent. It was commended that he was
simply carrying on his employers bust
ness as he had done time and again, that
he never denied having the money and
was at all times ready to pay it over tt
Jennerson and, in fact, had done so after
the drawing Of the Indictment against
him.
The attorney accused Eazen M Parker
former partner Of the defendant, with
being responsible for the. prosecution Of
Kelley, also of having distracted all the
office papers and files from the defen-
dant's desk. He used such strong Ian
guage that he was stopped several times
by Assistant County Attorney Jelley.

LAST DAY " As BUSY
Swedish Lutheran Conference Ad.
journs This Morning After q Most
Strenuous Final Session.
Fergus Falls Likely to Entertain the
Next Conference No Congre-
cations Cut OF.

At Q o'clock this morning the forty
sixth annual conference Of the Swedish
Lutherans In Minnesota and neighboring
states dispersed after almost continuous
session since 8 p. m. Just as the legisla-
ture passes more bills on the last day
than during the remainder of the session.
the conference disposed of more business
yesterday than in the other six days to-
gether.
The conference adjourned to meet next
May, subject to the call of the executive
committee. It is understood that Fergus
Falls desires to entertain the conference
and will doubtless have the pleasure next
May.
One Of the more important debates was
over the resolution Of the Illinois con-
ference asking the Minnesota body to cut
off several congregations in Wisconsin
so that they could be attached to a Mich
igan- Wisconsin conference. The request
was decisively refused. DR.. S. p. A.
Lindahl was here from Rock Island in the
interest of the movement. r
Authority was given to the directors
OF Bethesda hospital to open home for
the aged on the Lake Como property be-
longing to the hospital The board must
not, however, involve the conference In
debt.
The gratitude Of the convention was ex-
pressed In formal resolutions to the
Augustana congregation, its pastor. DR..
G. J. Petrf. and others who had assisted
In the entertainment of the guests, and
to the daily press of Minneapolis for its
reports OF the proceedings.

Hoppe took his arrest to heart and
threatened to commit suicide. The OIL

idle talk. A little later they heard him
breathing heavily and running to his cell
found him hanging by an improvised rope
made from his suspenders and handker-
chief. The suspenders had stretched and
his feet touched the floor but he was much
exhausted He was cut down and placed In
a strait jacket.
Hoppe was arrested at 8 a. M by Spec

central police station after fierce flzht.
Hoppe had knife and tried in vain to
use 1t.
Hoppe confessed that the silverware was
stolen from the residence OF Father
OReilly. Members Of the o'Reilly house
hold identified the ware. The man pried
open a window in the dininz-roon and
took all the silverware that had been LETT

MILK HOUSE At WELL
Suggestive Report Made by Several
Local Diaries to Inspector
Staples.
Bad Sanitary Conditions Were Found
at Seven establishments
Twin Cities Compared.

6. H. Staples, inspector in the twin
cities for the state dairy and food COM
mission. has completed an examination Of
the dairtes of Minneapolis and st. Paul.
His report illustrates the comparative
size Of the two cities.
In st. Paul he found 222 diaries with
1907 cows supplying 1910 gallons of milk
the diaries of Minneapolis and st. Paul
dairies with 9,719 cows supplying 16,527
gallons OF milk, each day.
In St. Paul the sanitary conditions sur
rounding the cows were extra good at
As; very good at 81 diaries; good at IS !;
fair at 10; and bad at diaries. In Min
neapolis the conditions were extra good
at 120 dairies; very good at 40; good at
207; fair at %; and bad at seven dairies
& Forty-seven Of the local dairies were in
spected more than once, twelve being Wis
tied three times, and seven four times
Three prosecutions were instituted at
ST. Paul before negligent dairymen would
reform their methods here no legal argu-
ments were necessary The condition Of
all the unsanitary dairies has been inn
proved.
Mr. Staples will soon notify dairyme
that. according to a, new state law, they
must provide milk houses In separate
buildings. At present the suggestive re-
port comes from half dozen dairies that

FLOUR LEADERS ASK RAISE
Ask an Eight-Hour Day or an
Hourly Wage Scale.

have taken the matter under AMUSEMENT.
No miller will commit himself to a
statement. but it is almost a certainty
that the demands will not be granted.
The men did not present their demand
lin the form of an u1timatum Whether
they intend to strike If the rnillers refuse
is not clear.
The contention of the men is that they
are not being treated fairly, considering
what the other men in the mills are paid
