John A. Johnson, who has had charge

did a poor job.
With halt the city recounted, two

found. AS this number II be added
to the official printed report OF the
census, Willmar will be credited with
a population OF 1904. No doubt q
recount OF first and fourth wards
would have added two hundred names
at least, which would bring the in

CARL STAN is DEAD
Old Rev loadon Settler Dlds Faeav,all
the sesass Of this LIE LAST
Saturday. s-fSE$$ \,

Carl STAN, we'll known tor his seclud.
ed life and eccentric manners, died
on his homestead in Sec. II, New Lon
don last Saturday evening about six
o'clock. Since the death of his wife
which occurred less than year ago.
has been failing fast. He was afflicted
with adropsical complaint. For some
time past he has lived alone, attended
only by his daughter, Mrs, Mary Kul-
seth. Saturday evening he was rest
less, moving about from chair to
chair, when he suddenly fell to the
floor. His daughter raised him to a
chair by the table, where the summon
ed neighbors who shortly arrived
found the body, still in sitting pos
ture. J.
Carl Stam was born in Levene par
ish Vastergotland, Sweden, Oct. p,
1888, thus lacking but q few days in
being Y years OF age at the time OF
death. He arrived from Sweden in
1859 and settled at Carver, Minn. He
was one OF party OF Swedish settlers
who explored the Nest Lake country
in 1864 and located on his claim there
in 1865. He was one OF the original
petitioners for the establishment of
school Dist. No. s. He served the
Nest Lake church as trustee five years
during the early days. He remained
member of this church until his
death. he never seemed to care for
the company of his neighbors, and his
eccentricities seemed to grow on him
as time passed. He was stern par
ent. was scrupulously honest in all his
dealings, and stuck to the primitive
mode OF living as far as possible.
He was well-read and possessed fund
OF information on almost any subject.
The writer recalls many instances
when as boy, living On an adjoining
farm, he had occasion to listen to talks
on botany, history and astronomy
from the old gentleman, who seemed
to take kindly interest in him. He
was q character whose words and
deeds will long live in the folklore of
the neighborhood, and those who knew
him best for years back sincerely re-
greet his passing away and respect and
honor his memory.
His wife, whose maiden name was
Johanna Carlson, died in November,
1904. %..>.
-Four daughters survive him.. Mrs:
Hilma Kunze, who lives in the extreme
northwest OF the state; Mrs. AIMS
Berglund, of New London; Mrs. Mary
Kulseth, who attended her father dur
ing his last days, but formerly was
resident of Litchfe1d; and Miss, Char
lotta STAN, OF New London. The

substantial way shown their respect
and esteem for a former beloved pas

some time ago. These are on the
whole heavily timbered with white

Physicians OF the state who are taking
special interest in this new hospital
plan to have it occupied by number

Legislature meets the following January
it may be possible to demonstrate to
that body the great benefits to be de-

The Model Town.

Fort Mill, S. c., is a town that
is best known abroad as the home
of Captain S. L. White, but is
deserving Of fame in other wayt
1t Is in all respects model town.
Its people take pride in keeping
it in order and permit nothing
that would offend the eyes Of the
visitor. 1t has the handsomcst
group Of monuments Of any town
in the south. Its streets are now
lighted by electricity and the lat
est move is the organization of a
"Village Improvement Society" "
which starts out with a member,
ship of eighteen, all women. The
object is to improve the health
fulncss and beauty of the town bv
keeping the streets and bitches
clean ard otherwise improving
general conditions. The good
that can be dore by such So
ciety is hard to realize. Every
town needs such an organization.
Ali praise to the women Of Fort
Mill. Charlotte Observer.
