Five Young Men Held
Up by TIVE Strang-
ers Sunday at
Elk River.
HElMO LUDDEN
WAS KILLED
Murderers are Cap
tured at Rogers in a
Hotel by the
Sheriff.

A cold blooded murder was com.
mitted Sunday morning about $50
O'Clock in a box car on a Northern
Pacific east bound freight train, two
miles west of Elk River.
HeinO Ludden of MOOrhead, Mimi,
was the victim. He never knew who
killed him or what for. His MUIR
derers simply shot him as he lay
asleep. The details of the crime are:
On Saturday night Heino Ludden
and four companions boarded freight
train at Staples and concealed them
selves in an empty car.
When within two miles of Elk River
two young men boarded the car and
with drawn revolvers ordered the five
young men to hold up their hands.
Young Ludden who was asleep, failed
to obey the command and was shot
through the head and Instantly killed.
His companions were robbed of their
valuables and thrown from the moving
train.
The men whom it is supposed COM
mitted the crime, were trailed to
Rogers Siding by Sheriff Warde and
his deputies who effected daring
capture and the parties are now safely
lodged in the Hennepin county Jail.

Supt. Ahles showed that it would be
possible to keep two and three times
as many people on the farms in
Stearns county with more scientific
farming. He then made his strong
plea for agricultural teaching in the
rural schools. "The old people are
set in their ways and we must there
fore look to the young" He thought
work in agriculture would keep the
boys and girls in school up to 16 or
Is years of age. He said, "We all
deplore the fact that our children are
leaving school too early. At IL or ID
years most children leave the country
schools. Few are found older than
this. Those older are mostly girls
and boys who wish to 60 to higher
schools later, to become teachers or
something else. The boy who is to
stay on the farm is believed to have
enough education when he has
learned to read, write and cipher
little. His father does not care to
have him learn more. He is afraid
to send him away to higher schools
for it is sure to spoil him for the farm.
He has seen his neighbors boys 60 to
the high school, normal or college
few months and found that they then
considered themselves above farming.
Those boys believed it disgraceful
to 60 back to farming though they
discovered themselves unfit for any
thing else. Our city schools are not
the right place to give the farmer
higher education. Where is he to get
it then? We must look to the country
schools and the agricultural college
for this.''
If we can show the boy and his
father that the school can offer him
something that will be of practical
value for the future, there will be no
difficulty in keeping him in school
up to Is or 10 years of age. Introduce
agricultural teaching; get him in
terested in farms and farm life and
you will furnish him with purpose
of going to school and motives that
will cause him to throw his whole
soul into the work of the school,"
The afternoon program consisted
of the following papers: "The
Pleasant Schools" by Miss Ernestine
Wehehahn, Teaching Morals" by
Mrs. B. Espeter, character Build
ing," by Miss Eva Grimes and
English Grammar" by Miss Mather,
teacher of the Normal Department of
the high school. All were strong
papers and thoroughly enjoyed by all.

A WRECK
Ed. II. Bar rett, of ST
Cloud Meets Death
at Minneapolis.

On Sunday last a small wreck oc-
Cured in the Omaha yards in Mime
apolis. Edward H. Barrett, the
engineer, leaped from the train and
was crushed to death beneath the
wreckage. Mr.. Barrett formerly lived
in St. Cloud, and the Times of Mon
day says:
Ed Barrett, as he was familiarly
known among his associates, the
railroad boys, was a St. Cloud bred
and raised man. He lived here al
most all his life being employed after
he reached his maturity with the
Great Northern in various capacities.
Some time since he went to Mime
apolis and took a berth with the
Omaha railroad. His father and
mother both passed away in this city
and their remains lie in Calvary Gem
etery. The news of EDS unfortunate
ending will be received with great
regret even outside his own immediate
relatives. Of the latter there are
none excepting his sister, Mrs. Hugh
Gallagher, closer than cousins. Mrs
Alexander McGregor land Thos.
Barrett are cousins.

MICHAEL HOGAN'S
LIFE INSURANCE
All Premiums Returned in
Addition to Face of Policies

The late Michael Hogan of Sank
Centre, was not only public spirited
citizen and man of great usefulness
to the community, but was likewise a
man of more than ordinary bust; ,ess
foresight and shrewdness. Thus,
while well-to-do, with a good income
and abundant means, he also saw the
wisdom of making provision for an
amount of ready cash that should be
available at once in the event of his
death. He saw that this could be
accomplished in no way more readily
than by means of a life insurance
policy, which, unlike any other in
vestment, is practically cash in bank
on the death of the investor.
Two policies which Mr.. Hogan
carried in the Mutual Life of New
York, the greatest life insurance
company in the world, were of a
peculiar character, since they pro-
vided for the return of all premiums
paid in addition to the face of the
policies in the event of death within
twenty years. One of these policies
he had carried for seventeen and the
other for fifteen years, and accord
ingly the company promptly paid to
Mrs. Hogan, not only the face of each
policy, $1,000, but also $620.50 addi-
tional on the one and $4,000 on the
other, being the total amount OF
premiums that Mr.. Hogan had paid
in each case.
Some one has said that the rich
man can we'll afford to carry life in
surance and that the poor man must
carry it. Certainly, when company
and contract are both wisely chosen,
as in Mr.. Hogan's case, no one can
afford to neglect this most efficient
means of protecting the family against
the untimely death of the breadwin-
ner.
Many men have the idea that a
Life Insurance Agency is transitory
affair, usually lasting only a short
time. Such is not the case with the
Minnesota Management Of the Mutual
Life, for E. w. Peet & Son Of St.
Paul, who paid Mr.. Hogan's death
claim, wrote the business over seven
teen years ago and at that time had
been representing the Mutual for
several years. Their district manager
for this field, Mr.. ]. G. Meyers OF
Alexandria, although a young man,
has been with the Mutual for many
years and expects to continue with
that Company long enough to pay
the claims on a considerable number
of the policies which he is writing in
this section,

INTERESTING
StSS|0N HEAD
In This City by Teach
erS-PauI AhleS
Present.

Supt. Paul Ahles and the teachers
in the vicinity of Sank Centre, held
very successful teachers meeting
on Saturday last, Nov. 10. The meet
ing was we'll attended. there being
twenty-five teachers present of the
forty belonging to this section.
The program was both interesting
and instructive. 1t opened with a
paper by Mr.. Samuel Reed on
Teachers Preparation. A spirited
discussion followed this paper and all
felt that they had gained many new
ideas from the paper and the discus
sion that followed. Next followed a
paper on Teaching Reading in Pri-
mary Grades" by Miss Sophia Kranz.
This with the discussion that followed
it, was very interesting and instruc-
tive. AS the next two members on
the program were absent, Supt. Paul
Ahles read paper on agriculture
in Our Rural Schools" This paper
he had once given at the St. Cloud
meeting. The subject of the paper
was new one to most teachers meet
ings, but will, as Supt. Ahles says,
in the near future be one that will
receive a great deal of attention at
such meetings. Mr.. Ahles feels the
urgent need of adding agriculture to
the rural school course and is very
enthusiastic in his plea for its intro
duction. He showed how two farmers
who were actually engaged in farming
in Stearns county and having
practically the same kind of farms,
made one $3.50 and the other $229O out
of their farms. The second would do
this because he followed diversified
and scientific farming. The following
are few extracts from his paper:
"The world is progressing and so is
the future farmer. Mail routes are
being established all over the country
which brings the farmer his daily
mail, keeping him in touch with the
world. Telephones are being put
in by the farmer. We are going to
have better farmer, a more intelli-
gent farmer, more professional
farmer, a farmer who will enjoy the
comfort of more beautiful home.
Our farmer is no longer the slave he
used to be. He is no longer a mere
working animal. He is going to
occupy station in society equal in
rank to that of any class. But it
takes a larger income to be such a
farmer; hence the necessity of more
careful farming.
The population of our rural districts
is rapidly increasing. 1t takes but a
few years to double it. What is to
become of this increasing population?
At present we have a wave of emigra-
ton. Hundreds and thousands of
young men and old are going to
Canada and other parts of the world
to find land for new homes.
Hundreds and thousands are drifting
into the cities, there to lead scanty,
miserable lives. Of course, it is we'll
that the population of our cities be
renovated by a steady influx from the
country. The boy and the girl from
the country must help to keep up the
brains and the purity of city life.
But at present there is too large a
current toward our cities, and this will
in time bring about serious prob
lems.N

New Way of Using Chamber

LAS proof that Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is a cure suitable for old and
young, | pen you the following: A
neighbor of mine had child just
over two months old. 1t had very
bad cough and the parents did not
know what to give it. l suggested
that if they would get bottle OF
Chamberlain Cough Remedy and
put some upon the dummy teat the
baby was sucking it would no doubt
cure the child. This they did and
brought about a quick relief and

A New Women's Organization
but not an. Organization of
New Women.

1t has long been known that what
our city most needed was one more
organization for women. This need
| has now been met and new society
takes it's place in the social ranks. II
is called "The Social Thirty" and as
its name indicates, is limited to a
membership of thirty. Meetings are
to be held every Tuesday afternoon
from 2:30 to 5 o'clock. The time will
be given up to work and incidentally
to visiting. Lunch will be served once
a month, five members furnishing the
refreshments. A few motions regu-
lating time, name, object, etc.,
constitute the rules of the society.
Any woman of good character and
with peaceable disposition, is
eligible for membership. Only one
vacancy remains; come early and
avoid the rush.
The officers of this society are:
President, Mrs. H. V. Adams; Vice
President, Mrs. John Nelson; Secre-
tary. Mrs. j. H. Hartley. These
officers will guide this new craft over
the silvery ripples of the social sea.
1t is not the aim of this society to set
the social pace of the city. A woman
not belonging will not be considered
killed socially; neither will she be
raised above other good women if she
does belong.
Tuesday, Nov. 29th, will be the day
for the lunch meeting and the "social
thirty will gather at the home of
Mrs. Elliott, who will be assisted in
serving by Mrs. Hatch, Mrs. H. N.
Carpenter, Mrs. Vernon Burgess and
Mrs. Robert Miller.

The Laugh Was on Colyel

Everybody in western Minnesota
| knows Colyer, we mean the irrepress-

Well, he formed one of a jOvial hunt.
ing party consisting of himself, o. ]
Davidson of Wheaton, R. L. Palmer,
mine host of the Palmer House, and
| Frank Carr of this city that recently
| journied to northern Minnesota in
search of big game and enjoyment,
principally enjoyment. After an
eventful trip they pitched their tents
in the extreme north where the feet OF
white men seldom tread, at least the
kind of white men who made up this
party. The tent was pitched at the
edge of large piece of meadow land.
The party had spent the day in the
forest and had all returned except
Colyer and were enjoying well
earned repOse. The sun was just
setting behind the western horizon
| illumining the landscape with haze
of glory. A magnificent six prOnged
buck, "veritable antlered monarch
of the waste" emerged from the
forest and started to cross the meadow
when he caught sight of the tent
white and shimmering in the rays OF
the setting sun. Amazed at the un-
expected sight he stopped dead still
with one hind foot extended stood
there, statuesque picture of petrified
establishment. Just then Colyel
emerged from the other side of the
meadow and caught sight OF the
| buck.
He carefully levelled his rifle and
sighted across it's shining barrel say
ing to himself, "Mr. Deer, you are
nv venison.'' Still the ANNA
moved not or showed the least sigr
of life. A great light dawned or
COlyer's mind and he chuckled tC
himself, eff those guys in camp
think they can set up a dead deer fol
me to shoot at they have three or four
more thinks coming" and with {
loud laugh re-shouldered his rifle
The startled deer bounded away int
the forest. A more disguised mar
than Colyer never marched into 8
hunters camp. He offered larg
sums to his companions to kick hin
all the way to the railroad station blu
they were so paralyzed with merri
ment when he related the inciden
that they were unable to accept hi
munificent offer. If G. H. dom
