Whose Horse is 1t:

Last week Emmett Mark got out a
writ of replevin and had it served on
H. L. Butterield who lives on Whit
ney Brook, and who the week before
took a horse from one of Marks teams
while it was enroute to Midland.
AS the team was being driven by Mr..
Butterfeld's place he came out and
stated that one of the horses belonged
to him, as it was a horse that he had
lost year or SO ago and he was SO
positive about the horse belonging to
him that he induced the boys driving
the team to let the horse go. Mr..
Butterfeld took the horse to his farm
and placed it in the barn. AS soon as
Mr.. Mark found out about Mr.Butter-
field taking the horse he replevined
the animal, Marshal Newton bringing
the horse back. The case was brought
before Justice Chadbourne last Friday
and continued until September 18th at
which time the case will be decided
and the horse given to it's lawful owner.
Mr.. Mark is positive the horse is his
and says he bought it some time ago of a
farmer living east of town, while Mr..
Butterfeld is equally as positive that
the horse is his property.

Improvement order at the lake and
that the past season has witnessed
many Improvements of a substantial ma

Death of Mrs. ThOS. e. Brown.

After months of suffering Mrs. Thos.
D. Brown passed away at her home in
Blue Hill early yesterday morning.
Her death had been expected for some
time, as she had been seriously i'll for
quite a while. She began failing last
spring and with the aid of a strong will
and determination not to give up, and a
wonderful patience during her long
sickness she braved the inevitable
much longer than many would have
been able to do. -.
The funeral will be held tomorrow
at the Congregational church in Prince
ton at 1880 and Rev. Gratz will Off
ciate. The funeral will leave the home
of deceased at 9 o'clock. Interment
will be in Oak Knoll.
Mrs. Helen Emily Brown whose fam
lily name was Costly, was born in Eng
land, Sept. 18th, 1847. When a young
lady of twenty she came to this country
and settled in New York, where she
was married to Mr.. Brown. They
moved to Minnesota thirty-two years
ago and for the past twenty-eight years
have resided in Blue Hill.
Mrs. Brown was motherly, sympa-
thetic woman-a good wife and neigh
Dor who always needed the cry of dis
tress. No children are called upon to
mourn her death, and the husband is
alone in his affection. There will be
many to miss kind old Mrs. Brown,
hard working and ever ready to lift
burden from the shoulders of the
weaker ones who struggled through
life with her. Truly it can be said of
her ''Well done good and faithful SER

Lightning Strikes f. "A. Ross House.

Lightning Strikes f. a. Ross House.
Last Thursday afternoon about two
O'Clock while a storm was threatening
heavy bolt of lightning came out of
the heavens with a loud report and
struck the residence of E: A. Ross. The
bolt entered the house at the peak of
the front gable and taking an electric
light wire went through the wall, tear
ing and burning the lath and ripping
off lot of plaster in the upper cham
Der, burning out the entire electric
light wiring and meter in the house in
the twinkling of an eye. The heavy
charge made it's exit on>t wires. It
ripped off the shingles where in en-
tered the house and set fire to the tim
bers under the roof, but the fire was
extinguished by the crowd that soon
assembled at the house. Mrs. Ross
was in bed in a room down stairs at the
time while Mr.. Ross was in the front
room directly under the upper cham
Der, and the hired girl had just reached
the top of the stairway, and was close
to'the meter when the lightning struck
the house. Besides the loud report
and shock the whole house was en-
veloped in flames and fumes of the
deadly fluid. Mrs. Ross jumped out of
bed from the fright caused by the ter
rible shock, and Mr.. Ross who had lust
started to get up and go to his wife's
room was stunned by the bolt and it
took him a few minutes to recover.
The hired girl was stunned by the
electric shock and fell down the
stairs but was not hurt much, though
it was miraculous that none of, those in
the house at the time were not seri-
ously hurt, if not killed, as the bolt of
lightning was most severe one. Post
master Cordiner was looking out the
front window to the postoffice at the
time and said that the whole house was
wrapped in one sheet of fame The
torceso OF the shock as felt by many at
some distance. Tall Cottonwood trees
directly in front of the house were not
touched at all by the lightning. The
damage to the house will amount to
about $50.

Charles F. George died very suddenly

Mr.. George had retired at his usual

few years ago supposed that when
the timber about the lake was cut
there was nothing left to induce man
to remain there. Well, have been
there several years and I find that
there is much more to that section than
pine and hardwood timber. We have
one OF the finest sections for general
growth in the country and when the

and Joklng, little thinking that would
be the last visit with his wife.

i Ilre news OF his sudden demise was
sent TO relatives and arrangements
made Tor the funeral. Mrs. w. L.
Babcoock of Elk River, sister of Mr..
George, and Charles Babcock came up
from Elk River at once and assisted in
the funeral arrangements. One of the
sons, Alonzo George, who is assistant
superintendent of the training school
at Fed Wing, came up on the AFTER
noon train. A short funeral service
was held at the house at nine O'Clock
Saturday morning and the body was
taken to Elk River on the morning
train where the funeral was held at
the home of Mrs. w. L. Babcock at
1880 IN the afternoon, and which was
attended by other members of the fam
lily and many old friends of deceased
from Santiago where he had resided
Tor soEfmany years. The body was taken
to St.Cloud and was inferred in the
cemetery at that place beside the grave
OF his first wife who died many years
ago.
Charles F. George was born in Thet-
ford, fVermont, Dec. 2, 1892. and. he
came to Minnesota in April, 1856. He
spentsthe summer at Sank Rapids and
in the fall took up g claim in the town
OF Santiago which he always held as
his homestead until last spring when
he sold the farm and concluded to
spend the remainder of his days in
comparative quiet and ease. Mr..
George was one of the oldest settlers
in the town of Santiago, being one of
the first settlers to locate in that Sec
tion. In 1862 he went to Illinois where
he remained for two years, and after
returning to Minnesota he lived in St.
Cloud for two years. In 1877 he went
to Kansas and remained two years after
which he returned to Minnesota and
lived on his farm until he sold it.
During his long residence in Santiago
he held various local Offices, such as
justice of the peace, assessor, etc., and
was an enterprising and industrious
citizen.
Mr.. George was married in Deem
Der, 1855 to Harriet E.. Babcock of
Vermont. She died on the 23d of April,
1878, leaving five children: Arthur B.,
Franklin P, Alonzo r., Herbert w.
and Alice E. Another son died at the
age Of seven years. The daughter, Mrs.
George Reynolds, lives at Fergus Falls;
Arth;aa,c p. resides at Hampton, Mimi,
and Alonzo r. is at present in North
Dakota. The son Franklin is dead. ,
On May 9Th, 1874, Mr.. George mar
ried Harriet E. Minimum of Santiago
who survives him.
Only a short time ago Mr.. George
bought the Damon house in Princeton
and was making arrangements to set
tie down and engage in the business OF
buying hay, and produce here.

Trying to Buy Land for the Indians.

It is said that there are parties who
are trying to obtain land around Mile
Laos lake for the Indians and frequent
attempts have been made of late by
these agents of the Indians to buy land
from some of the parties who have
land in that vicinity for sale, but the
land has been refused them. It is
claimed that the interested parties
have an eye on the cash to the credit
of the Mile Laos Indians and are
anxious to get hold of some land at the
lake and sell it to the red men for a
good round margin. g
