BOWERS.

Estella Alban, young girl 2I years
old, employed at Alfred Powell's, far
mer near here, was found on Tuesday in
AIr. POwell's garnet with her throat cut
and had apparently been dead for several
hours. On Wednesday the body was
viewed by Drs. Downes and HOey, and
an inquest was held by the coroner. The
verdict was to the effect that "the girl
came to her death by hemOrrhages caused
by knife wounds" but failed to say
whether the wounds were self-infiicted
or not.
Bold, bad burglars stole two of Frank
Salevau's trotters few nights ago, and
after a search of half day, the horses
we're found back of Franks barn placidly
foundering themselves. The sapposition
is that the robbers concluded the horses
we're not worth stealing, and returned
them to the place they were found.
The schooner John Frazier, owued bv
George w. Flack, which was capsized in
Mauriae River Cove some time ago, has
been carried to sea by the ice, and all
hopes of saving her are gone.
Your correspondent was formerly en-

between Russia and Japan, then we vOuch

The foundation for the new hotel has

Bowers will have boom next summer,
as there will be more attractions than
ever. All that Bowers wants to be a
well-known resort, is for person with
capital and push to locate here; although |
there are some people here that are al
ways ready to KNOCK" against any i'm
provements,y yet as a rule most of the peo-
pie are ready to assist any new under
taking, and if some one with capital
should locate here, they would find good
returns for the money invested, and
would find majority of the people ready
10 assist in any improvements they
should offer to make. CHEF.

All On Fire.
A Milford Citizen Tells How
Relief Came.

Have any itching skin disease?
Itching almost drives you crazy;
You feel "all on fire.;
DOan's Ointment brings quick relief.
Cures Eczema, Itching Piles,
And all itchiness of the skin.
Mrs. Jehu Davis, North Franklin
street, wife of Jehu Davis,a well-known
retired farmer, says: "For thirty years
or more l suffered from eczema or some
similar disease Of the skin; it was an
afllictiOn which followed an attack of
brain fever. At one time I hsd to have
my hair shaved off and my head
blistered. This was a severe treatment.
and nobody who has not experienced
it can have the faintest idea of the
torture of it. 1 spent a large amount
of money for salves, olntments and
other medicines which sometimes gave
me little relief but not positive re- uIts.
Some of them made me ore instead of
better But the very first application
of Deans Ointment, which L procured
at DR.. q. w. PleasantOn's drug store.
gave relief, and continuation of the
treatment for few days so diminished
the area of the affected parts that in a
short time they all healed nicely and
the soreness and itchiness disappeared.

WAR has commenced between
Japan and Russia, and what the
outcome will be it will require an
astute mind to foretel. At the outset
Japan has dealt some heavy blows
to her bur1y antagonist i'll sea fight
ing, which has about evened up the
strength of the two in sea power;
but the japanese appear to be more
quick and daring fighters, which
with their mobility and nearness to
be their source of supplies, give
her an advantage over Russia, who
has to bring her stores and troops
across a continent. The interests of
this country would be best served
by Japans successful prosecution Of
the war, as the integrity of China is
at stake;and in the far east is where
the coming expansion of our trade
is to come from. Before another week
passes, news of decisive naval bat
ties will probably give an indication
of the result of the war.

A representative of THE GAZETTE
met Attorney and Mrs. S. T.. Pierce
formerly of this place, bat later of
Detroit, at the Windsor, St. Paul,
on Tuesday of last week. They
have given up their residence in

ton of locating in St. Paul or Kas-

resided.
The long dry spell through Aug

fine shape, and the rain will do
good to late corn.
The tragic death at Winthrop of
young Hugo Johnson, son of Sena-
tor Chas. Johnson OF, St.lPeter was
witnessed by number of Redwood
excursionists on the early morning
train of the Both ult. The first train
had been brought to a standstill and
young Johnson, who was on his
way to the state fair, stood upon the
platform of the rear coach. A Sec
ond engine backed down with two
coaches from the Storm Lake train
but when an attempt was made to
stop them short distance from the
other, coupling broke and the two
cars crashed at full speed into the
motionless train. The force of the
impact telescoped the last coach,
upon which Johnson was standing,
and before he could move was pin
Toned to the end of the car. Strange
ly enough he did not at once lose
constituencies. He tossed his hat
out from between the cars and then
succeeded in extricaring himself,
after which he walked, unassisted,
across two sidings. Then his
strength gave way and he sank to-
his knees. Before the onlookers
could reach his side he collapsed,
his features became ashen, and
within few minutes he passed
away. His chest had been crushed
and he had received grievous inter-
nal injuries. Hugo Johnson was
about nineteen years old, and a
manly boy. For the above details
We are indebted to the New Ulm
Review.
