VICTIM OF GUN ACCIDENT
In making up the first page this
article was mixed with another
ana SO appears again.

Shot in the head by the accidental
discharge of shot gun, A. W. Case
of Sleepy Eye, now and for many years
agent for the Standard Oil company.
lies at his home in dangerous condi-
ton: although his physician expresses
a hope for his recovery.
The accident happened Sunday and
the gun was held in the hands of George
A. Genres, employed in the jewelry
store of Christ Arveson. Gehres,
Arveson and a mannamed Christensen
were going hunting on Sleepy Eye
lake and with their guns went down to
the shore where one of the party has
a gasoline launch in boat house.
The three men boarded the launch
and cast off. Genres was sitting in
the boat, his gun which was hammer
less and as he supposed at safety, .
in his lap. Suddenly in some unknown
manner the weapon was discharged.
AS i'll fate would have it, Mr.. Case
was walking by the lake shore Sunday
morning and just as the party was
pushing out of the boathouse he came
near. The shot passed through the
inch side of the house and struck him
full in the left side of the head.
He fell to the ground unconscious and
was carried to his home and a physi-
clan summoned. Here it was found
that the shot had injured the left eye
SO that it could not be opened. and
whether or not the sight is totally de-
stroyed cannot be told, although there
seems no doubt but that the eye is in
jured somewhat.
Mr.. Case is a man over 60 years OF
age and the sight of his right eye has
been destroyed by cancer.
A lo-year-old boy, Schweiger by
name, who happened to be near the
boat house at the time of the accident
| was also wounded by stray shots, but
only slightly.
There seems no doubt but that the
shooting was accidental and no blame
is attached to Genres except possibly
for carelessness. He is a young man
of excellent standing in the community
and has been in the employ of Mr.
Aryeson for several years, and prior
to that was we'll known in Sleepy Eve
as a carpenter.

Then followed two DAYS of quiet in

being of a musical turn of mind tucked
an ACCORDION under his arm and rode

The next day the loss was discovered
and the Sleepy Eye police notified.
Thursday afternoon Sheriff Julius was
called up and asked to take the affair
in charge, and telephone messages
were sent in every direction, but with
out result. The man seems to have
made good his escape.

A CURIOUS TREE.
One of Natures Queer Products That
Are Found In Africa.

Are Found In Africa.
The Welwitschia mirabilis is won
der of the vegetable kingdom. 1t
grows on the barren land Of the west
ern side Of Africa, where rain Is al
most unknown and the only moisture
is that from dews which fall at night.
This plant was discovered in 1860 by
DR.. Welwitsch, an eminent scientific
traveller. The welwitschia is a tree
which lives for many years, many
specimens being estimated as more
than 100 years old.
Every year Of it's life increases it's
size, yet it never grows higher. Ris-
ing just above the ground this strange
plant, looking like rough round table,
regularly enlarges by adding concen-
trio layers to it's circumference The
fiat upper surface of the trunk is very
hard and dark, resembling in color and
texture the crust Of an overbaked loaf.
The trunk attains the size of from
fourteen to eighteen feet in circum-
ference, but is never more than few
inches above the ground.
The welwitschia is remarkable in
the fact that it never loses it's first
two leaves and never gets any more
These leaves increase in size year aft
er year until they attain the length Of
six Or eight feet or more. They are
fiat and leathery and frequently split
into numerous straps

Mrs. Mary Bauer, aged 66 years,
died Sunday afternoon from dropsy,
disease which had afflicted her for
several years. She is survived by a
husband and two sons, both grown.
The funeral was held Tuesday from the
Catholic church and burial was in the
Catholic cemetery.
Pioneers now living out of New
Ulm who journeyed here to be present
at the celebration Friday were: Her.
man Plath of Albany, Stearns county;
Peter Permantjen of the Soldiers
Home; Adolf Duenel of Minneapolis;
L. G. Ives of Stark; Joseph Traut-
mann of Stately. William Mack, son
of Peter Mack, was down from Red
wood county to be present as a Juni-
or Pioneer.
August Windhorn returned yester-
day from the central part of North
Dakota where he sold a half section
of land to Henry Lowinski who ac-
companied Mr.. Windhorn. He re-
ports people greatly pleased with
the crops this year, the average yield
being around twenty bushels of wheat
to the acre. There is still much
threshing to be done as rain has been
as constant there as here. Mr.. Wind
horn expects a rush for land to that
part of the state another year.
Among the county candidates for
reelection Wesley G. Miller seems to
have the strongest opposition, from
the fact that his opponent is using his
crippled condition as an argument for
election. If the man is competent in
every other respect this might be a
consideration but in voting for an
official no question of poverty or
sympathy should enter in. The county
pays high enough salary to secure
good men and it should have the best.
Mr.. Miller has demonstrated his
ability from the start. There is abso-
lutely no argument for a change in
Office and he should be returned with
larger vote than he had two years
ago.
That winter is near needs no further
proof than that the way people are
scrambling to get heating plants into
their residences before the cold
weather sets in in earnest. Cuddy &
Cavanaugh have received six large
orders within the last week, all OF
which must be finished up in six weeks
time. They are for a hot water plant
in the home of A. w. Burrgstrom of
Bernadote; a hot water plant in the
residence of Fred Becker; a steam
plant for Fred Paul of Walnut Grove;
steam plant and plumbing for the
Farmers and Merchants bank of
Sleepy Eye; a steam outfit for the
Banner hotel at Lamberton; and hot
water plant for Fred Reinke of
Lamberton.

Sentiment Is Changein ing.

If there is one thing more
than another that has de-
veloped out of the judicial con-
Vention at st. Joseph 1t is the
marked change in sentiment
among Democrats as to the
gubernatorial contest and Har.
ry B. Halves.
1t is not intended to mean by
this that there is likely to be
any change in the present pro-
gram to make Joseph W. Folk
the Democratic nominee, but
that that the unfair and ma
licious manner in which Mr..
HAYES has been s!andered and
misrepresented by st. Louis
newspapers and gimlet Folk
politicians 'has at last run it's
course.
Mr.. Halves was easily the pop
ular tavorite at the st. Joseph
convention.
The mere mention of his name
brought forth storms of ap-
p1ause.
Not man spoke of him ex-
cepting in words of praise.

Halves is pleased to note this

1t was one day d week later
that Margaret came into the
bedroom, her face pale but her
eyes shining with a new light.
She went to the mautel and
nervousIy rearrauged the things
thereon, while Mrs. Ridgeway
watched her wonderingly. And
then she removed the crepe from
Richards picture. Only the
flag remained.
Its better so. isn't it?" she
asked.
A look of pain came into the
mothers eyes. I'D rather
b ave it there, please, she said
gently. "It's old and musty, but
I want it left on. / still grieve. |"
Margaret knelt beside the
bed. Mother" she said. Il
took it off on purpose. Can you
guess why? 1 have heard that
maybe the report was wrong;
that maybe Dick was not killed
only wounded-perhaps captur-
ed and held prisoner all these
months, and then escaped. If
this were true"
The feeble hand clutched
nervously at those of the girl.

know. You've heard from him.

but tell me. Joy doesn't kill.

He's coming home. I have

There was a bound of quick
steps across the floor, a cry of
joy, and once more the mother
held her son in her arms.

The list did not end here, but
only one name meant anything
to her. Dick Rldgeway killed!
She could not realize it. 1t was
an old paper. used to wrap a
gown in and was faded and yell
low. The date was May 17-
five months before. And Dick
had been dead FIVE months aud
she had not known of it! 1t did
not seem possible even with the
words staring her in the face.
1t seemed as though she
ought to have felt his death at
the time, if he were really dead.
1t must be true, and yet why
had she not heard of it then?
Everyone in the town must have
known and grieved. And then
she remembered that she was
away in the city at that date.

She went to the side window
and looked out into the little
garden next door and to the lit
tie old-fashioned weather STAIN

1t seemed strange to think
that she would never again see
Dicks straight, slender figure

never again hear the pleasant,

Below her were the currant

best cherries. She could see her

a small figure stained in ging-
ham, looking up at him; and
there the arbor he built, inaug-
urated by birthday feast of
gingerbread and lemonade.
1t was Dick who dragged her
to school on his sled and fought
her battles for her and thrash

she heard he was in the Philip

she knelt down with her head
