Last Saturday morning occurred
the death of Franz Marty of this
place in the hospital in St. Paul,
where he was operated upon ten days
previous for bladder trouble and al
tho for time some hope for his re-
covery was entertained he grew rap
idly worse and his death resulted.
The remains were brought to his
country home Monday evening. The
funeral occurred this morning from
the residence to the Catholic church
where Fir Klein conducted the cere-
monies, after which the remains were
inferred in Lakeside Cemetery, where
many sorrowing relatives and friends
followed them to their last resting
place. Mr.. Marty was pleasant old
gentleman Y years of age, and has
been resident of this county the
past thirty years. He leaves wife,
five sons and one daughter to mourn

Sanford Dodge Coming.

All lovers o the legitimate drama
will be pleased to hear that Manager
Geo. Dopkins has secured Sanford
Dodge, the brilliant young tragedian
and romantic actor, for an appear
ance here in grand revival of one of
his classic and romantic productions.
Mr.. Dodge's work is of the highest
order. He is young, ambitious and
possessed of natural gift that is
fure to build for him merited repu-
tation in his profession. With each
successive season his popularity
seems to gain SO that the announce
ment of his appearance is always
welcome news to theater- goers, and
packed houses are the rule every
where.
The appearance of Sanford Dodge
and his talented company of dramat-
ic artists in The Tanning Of the Shrew
will be greeted with delight by all
lovers of the drama. The name of
Sanford Dodge is synonym of dram
attic excellence, as it has ever been
connected with the highest class of
dramatic work and tnis season his
productions are superior to any he
has ever before attempted.
No other attraction touring the
Northwest can afford to carry the
high class artists engaged by Mr..
Dodge, as no other actor has the con-
fidence of the play-going public in
this territory to such an extent that
they will give sufficient financial sup
port to pay the immense salaries
comm anded by the artists who sup
port Mr.. Dodge this season.

An Iowa Story

A funny little, incident took place
at an Algona hotel during the fair,
the particulars of which have just
leaked out. It seems that gentle
man accompanied by his wife stopped
over night at one of the hotels and
some time during the night the
gentleman was taken with terrible
case of cramp collie. His wife was
frightened nearly to death, but know
ing that something must be quickly
done she slipped on hsf wrapper
and went down to the dining room,
where she emptied the contents of
the mustard cruet into her kerchief
and ran back up stairs: she dived
into her room as she thought and
seeing a man lying in bed she gent
Iy turned down the cover, and still
more gently, tucked up his lingerie
and slapped on the plaster. No
sooner had it come in contact with
his epidermis than the man arose,
and yelled out, what in h-Roboken
ale you doing, woman!" the lady
gave glance at his face it was
not her husband; screech like that
of siren on an ocean liner split the
midnight from Dau's to the Black
Cat Creek; there was a sound of
pattering feet and switching drap-
cries; a door slamed and quite
reigned! When the lady got to her
own loom she told her husband of
the mistake she had made and it
tickled him so that the cramp collie
took change of venue and left him.

DIES IN MINNEAPOLIS.
John Landberg, a Former Sheriff
OF Stevens County.

on SteVSHS SOuHlys
Captain John Landberg, of the
South Side police station, of Mime
apolis, died at his home in that city
on Wednesday morning.
Captain Landberg was we'll known
to many Stevens County people, and
had many friends here. He was
sheriff of Stevens county at time
when Big Stone and Traverse were
attached to this county for judicial
purposes.
Captain Landberg was man OF
genial disposition, and had hosts OF
friends. For that reason among
others, his forte was in politics. In
this line he was uniformly successful,
and when he quit that field at
different times to go into business,
he invaribly returned. 1t is worthy
of note that in all the scandals con-
nected with the Ames administration
his name was never mentioned, and
that while his resignation was asked
while the Investigations were going
On, vet he was re-instated by Mayor
Haines.
The following notice of his life is
taken from the Minneapolis Times OF
Thursday.
Captain Axel Lamberg, in charge
of the third precinct police station,
was connected with the police depart
ment three different periods. He
was born in Sweden, Aug. q 1S45,
and was educated in both the COM
mon schools and in the technological
school at Norrkoping.
In the latter he studied civil en-
cheering before coming to America
in 1866. When Landberg arrived at
Quebec his knowledge of English,
German and the Scandinavian lam
guages secured him the position of
Interpreter with the Grand Trunk,
which position he held two years.
During 1868 and 1869 he was engaged
in the clothing business in st Paul,
moving to Minneapolis in 1870, and
to Stevens county in 1876. In the
same year he was elected sheriff for
the district comprising Stevens, Big
Stone and Traverse counties. and
held that office four years.
Captain La1dberg returned to
Minneapolis in 1884, and two years
later was made major of police by
Mayor Ames, when titles we're in
vogue in the police department. He
was elected secretary of the demo,
cratic state central committee in
1888, and when his term of Office
closed in 1890, he became bookkeeper
for Sheriff P. P. Swenson. At the
end of the Swenson regime he
entered the employ of a Milwaukee
qerwing company. Oh Jan. Z, 1901,
he was appointed captain of police by
Mayor Ames, and assumed charge
of the South Side station. When
President Jones of council assumed
the mayoralty duties at the la t of the
Ames administration, he complied
with request to resign, bnt was
reappointed to the position when
Mayor Haines entered upon his dut.
les
Captain Landberg had an unusual
large number of personal friends,
not only in Minneapolis, but thru

FOR MUTUAL DEFENSE.
Minnesota FraternaI Beneficiary AS
ISOLATION Organized.

Minnesota FraternaI Beneficiary AS
ISOLATION Organized.
To All Fraternal Beneficiary Lodges
of Minnesota:
Greeting
One year ago, upon a published
call meeting was held in st Paul 1T
which time there was organized what
is now known at the Minnesota Fra
/ terna] Beneficiary Association, num-
bering on It's active membership list
a great many of the lodges of the
state. But there are still many
lodges not yet affiliated with us who
should do SO at once. Our object is
primarily the mutual protection of
the fracternal beneficiary system
aginst hoetile legialation and there
is always need for vigilance. At a
meeting recently held at Boston by
the insurance commissioners of the
United States measures were pro-
posed and approved by said com
missioners which, is enacted into law
will prove a blow to the fraternal
insurance system, The committee
sent to represent the Fraternal Con-
gress at the commissioners meeting
has reported against their action
and was hardly given a fair hearing.
: We deem it wise and timely to
again call the attention of all lodges
of the state to the necessity of join
ing our association at once. 1t is your
own interests which we are organized
to protect. Organized but one year
the association has reason to feel
proud of it's achievements. At the
last session of the state legislature we
successfully forestalIed all proposed
Legislation directed against our sys-
tenn which we deemed ill-advised.
So strong was the representation that
not only did no hostile bills show
themselves in the sessions, but on
the other hand we secured the pass
age of a law exempting fraternal
beneficiary orders from taxation in
Minnesota. !
Let us now strengthen our efforts
for the future in view Of what might
happen. The first convention held
fixed the membership dues for each
lodge at only $i,OO per year, per dele
gate, payable at joining and once
year thereafter. Upon joining each
lodge is to pay also per capita tax
of l cent per member, payable only
once.
By addressing our secretary you
will be furnished free of cost with a
copy of one constituti
and with application blank.
Your should be member and should
help our good work, which is your
work. Let every fraternal bene-
ficiary lodge in the state become an
active member now.
Fraternity yours.

President.
