Was in Swimming With Compan-
ion Yesterday Morning.
He Was Taken With Cramps
or Heart Failure.
Leaves a Wife and Infant Child
to Mourn Loss.
From Mondays Daily.

Magnus Lundeen,a farmer, living in Bel
grade township about five and half
miles down the river from North Man
kato, was drowned in the Minnesota
river near his hoGia yesterday morning
about ten O'Clock. Lundeen and a young
man by the name of John Deegan, his
neighbor, had gone into the river to
swim. They swan across to the Blue
Earth county side and back to the Mic
ollet county side, and then again to the
Blue Earth side, and were just on their
return, when the drowning occurred Dee
gan was little ahead of Lundeen, when
the latter asked, Johnny, can you
touch the bottom?" NO." replied Dee
gan. 81 am not feeling well" said
Lundeen. 81 will GO and get the BOAT for
you," was the answer. NO." said Lun-
deem, 81 can make it all right" Deegan
looked back and saw Lundeen spring up
from the surface of the water, much the
same as a fish does, and then disappear.
Deegan summoned help and a search
was made for the body. Two hours
later it was recovered by the brother of
the drowned man, Nels Lundeen, who
found it by diving. The body did not
drift far from where it went under.
What caused Magnus Lundeen to
drown is rather mysterious. 1t is
thought that he must have been taken
with cramp or with heart failure. He
was strong swimmer, and the width of
the river beyond their depth could not
have been much over twenty feet
The deceased lived on the farm of his
motherin-law, Mrs. j. High of st. Peter,
with his wife and infant child He was
not a man of much property.
At last reports the time of the flu
neral had not been determined The
family belongs to the Swedish Lutheran
church at st. Peter. The interment will
undoubtedly take place in that city.

teen he went on board a merchant
steamer as cabin boy and retained that
position for two years, visiting the
countries of Spain, Italy, England and
Germany during his travels.

the case as described by The Free Press
yesterday,
The boy, with two companions. nam
ed Finke and Jordan, had gone out into
the co-rtry to see threshing machine
at work. They were coming back to
town when a freight train came along at
about thirty miles an hour. Ziesare
witsch suggested that they catch ride
to the depot, but the others refused to
do so. He tried to board the train at
about the middle of it, but fell beneath
the wheels and was killed. His COM
panions saw the whole thing. The train
crew did not know of the accident.
The mother of the dead boy is pros
trated by the terrible occurrence. The
