Adolph Schafer, Age 60, Came From South
Dakota to Bedeck Wifes Grave.
The following little story of a5foral
and oral tribute was contributed to
the Minneapolis News by Kate Kean:
9 A touching incident occurred in
Layman's cemetery this morning,
when Adolph Schafer, an old man of
perhaps sixty years, after coming 400
miles to give evidence of his remem-
brance for his dead wife, placed a
wreath of beautiful roses on her grave.
"Schafer lives alone at Valley City.
S. D., and all night Sunday he trav-
eled that he might be at the cemetery
to-day and leave his little floral trib-
ute there.
''The wife died fourteen years ago
and since then he always succeeds on
Decoration Day in leaving some little
token where he buried her.
This is not much of a floral offer
ing that have, he said, as he slowly
stopped to place the roses in the grass.
but it every generous act OF hers
should blossom at her grave. she
would sleep to-day beneath a wilder
ness of flowers. -

recently that Robert G. Dunn of

that even should Judge Collins carry
Hennepin county he will not have
enough delegates to win at the con-

conclusion that Dunn is far in the lead

Standing Pat.

During the past two weeks the polit-
ical situation in the State has changed
and is now materially improved from
the Dunn standpoint. In st. ,Faul and
Ramsey county there is no longer any
talk that it is possible for the Collins
people to secure the delegation. Lead
ing Collins supporters there are rap
idly falling in line for R. G. Dunn
and making the best terms possible to
protect their own political future. In
Hennepin county the improvement is
even more noticeable and has been
emphasized by the attempts of we'll
known Collins leaders to either induce
the Dunn people to flock to new can
didate or else to hold out for an unin-
structed delegation. Mr.. Dunn's sup
porters, however, are not of that kind
of material and they are standing pat.
They believe that he will be nomin-
ated on the first ballot, or, perhaps,
by reclamation. -Wadena Tribune.
