attention for weeks before he can
walk with comfort The lad went
hunting last Friday, and when he did
not return at night his parents gave

VENERABLE MAN
IS REAL HERO
PLUNGES INTO iCE-COVERED
WATER TO SAVE HIS GRAND
CHILDREN.
MAKES A DARING RESCUE
FRIENDS WILL APPLY FOR CAR
NEGiE MEDAL FOR 80-YEAR-
OLD BADGER.

New Richmond, Wis, Nov. Paul
Turner, a retired farmer who has
passed his eightieth birthday, yester-
day made a daring rescue of his two
grandchildren by plunging into the
ice-cold water Of lake and bringing
them out alive. Mr.. Turner was un-
conscious when he was taken from the
water. His friends are considering an
application for a Carnegie hero medal
for him.
The aged farmer lives with his sons
family in the town of Alden, POLK
county. He has long since given up
active work on the farm, but remains
on the place, intending to pass the rest
of his life among the scenes OF his
young manhood.
Two children, aged three and four
years respectively, forms part or the
family of his son, William Fl. Turner.
The children went out doors to play
after being all wrapped up to keep
them from feeling the cold. They had
been out but short time when their
mother missed them from the door
yard and went to look for them.
Children Try the Ice.
About twenty rods from the Turner
home is a small body of water known
as Peabody lake, and it was toward
this that Mrs. Turner went in search.
When she reached the shore she found
that the children had been trying the
ice which had formed on the surface
during the night. The ice had given
away beneath their slight weight, and
the older child was even then strug-
Cling in the water, while his brother
was nowhere in sight.
Mrs. Turner's screams brought her
aged father-in-law to the scene, and as
soon as the old gentleman saw his
grandchild's danger he rushed into the
water, breaking the thin ice before
him, and seized the little boy by the
waist, The other child proved to be
within easy reach, though beneath the
surface of the water, and he also
seized him and turned toward the
shore with his double burden.
Overcome by Shock.
AS the old gentleman came within
reach Of dry ground he was overcome
by the shock and the chill and tainted,
but in his fall the children were placed
where they easily scrambled ashore
with their mothers help
Mr.. Turner remained unconscious
for several minutes after he had been
drawn from the lake. The water in
which he had waded to save the chill
dren was deep enough to reach above
his shoulders.
