Fell Dead Decryin~ Blue Laws.

Victoria Dersky. who conducts a
grocery store at Trenton. dropped dead
while h was measuring out two
pounds Of sugar for a customer. She
was in the midst of a TRADE against
the city authorities, questioning their
right to pass ordinances making Sun
day selling illegal, when she sue
cumbed. A physician pronounced the
woman's death due to heart trouble.
1t is thought that the excitement into
which she had worked herself had a
disastrous effect on her heart, which
has been weak for some wears.

Fullerton Demands Expense Money from
Fellow Commissioners

Fullerton Demands Expense Money from
a Fellow Commissioner.
Sam F. Fullerton, executive agent for
the game and fish commission has made
a demand on Beecher II. Ward of Fair
mont to return alleged overchanges in
expense accounts presented by him as a
member of the board. The letter stating
the items in controversy is as follows:
Beecher Fl. Ward Farmont Minn.--Dear Sir:
Since this controversy has arisen in the board.
have been looking up the vouchers already paid
to you and find that You have been charging
5000 for the round trip railroad fare from
Fairmont to st. Paul. In conversation with the
that the fare is on. s7.oo and no more I also
find that the charge for the chair car is % cents
to Madelia. which is as far as YOU could have a
chair car and no more, and that you have been
charging $3.50 for this. The. So that you have
been charging for meals is. of course. too much
but that YOU could get around by saying that
you had spent $1.5O each time. But as Mr.
Lamprey and myself are responsible for your
having gotten this money. we demand the re
turn Of it for the state. 1t has always been the
expense account of the members. believing that
we were dealing with gentlemen and men who
could be trusted. 1t was on that ground that
we signed these vouchers and that You got this
we don't want to make any trouble about this
but we want this money returned that you got
in this way. Yours very truly.
Sam f. Fullerton, Executive Agent.
The governor has not acted yet on the
resigna ton Of the commission, but it is
taken for granted that Ward will not be
reappointed and there are several APP
plicants already for. his place on the
board.

ton Of the murderer was arrested in
Boston two hours later on suspicion.
Sturtevant reached his home about $50
last night, having with him a satchel we'll
filled with money and checks belonging
to the bank, Of which he was treasurer.
AS he stepped upon the piazza of his
house. his wife and daughter opened the
door and a few words of greeting passed
btween them. At that moment a rough
looking stranger appeared around the end
of the piazza. and. revolver in hand, ord
dered Sturtevant to throw up his hands.
The order was not Immediately obeyed
and Miss Sturtevant stepped in front OF
her father to shield him from harm just
as the intrducer fred the bullet entering
her body with fatal result. The man
then snatched a chatelaine from Sturte-
wants grasp. and jumping upon a bicycle
which he had near, rode off rapidly in the
direction of Boston.

temple and fell dead at the feet of her
parents.
