THE SAD DETAILS.
OF the Drowning of Jordahl Sisters at
COmOrant Lake.

The drowning of the two Jordahl
sisters at Comorant Lake, Minnesota,
has been severe shock to many
friends and relatives of the young
ladies in this state. Of the accident
the Becker County Journal says:
"One of the saddest accidents in the
annals of Becker county, occurred this
wednesday, afternoon at about l
O'Clock at Comorant Lake, and two
homes feel the stern hand of fate and
desolatiOn.
A party consisting of five youny
ladies left the village Tuesday after
noon to go to Cormorant Lake for a
weeks outing, with every prospect of
good time, and bubbling with the
enthusiasm and energy which is a
part only of youth and health. Only
two will return alive, and as a con-
sequence the village is filled tonight
with the mourners of those who loved
them.
The camping party consisted of the
Misses Nellie and Lena Jordahl, Fanny
King and Lena Moe, of this village.
and Miss Harriet Hale of Fargo. Their
outing did not open auspiciously at the
lake, as the first night was dark and
stormy, and in the hearts of the folks
at home there was evil forbodings.
The next day, however, gave promise
OF better things, and securing a. raft
the young ladies', accompanied by
seven boys-Alfred Howe, Harry
Stoner, Oscar Fossum, Louis Zacharia-
son. Ralph King, Helmer and Willie
Ebeltoft-drifted on the waves. But
the burden on the raft proved to
heavy, and as it drifted out into the
lake 1t became apparent to the boys
that the only way to save the young
ladies from disaster was to tighten the
craft by jumping. They acted upon
the impulse, but as they left the raft
the young ladies became frightened
and also abandoned it. On the part
OF the boys there were deeds of
heroism worthy of more than passing
notice, but at this time It is impossible
TO give full account. Miss Moe was
saved by Willie Ebeltoft and Raph
King, but the efforts of the other bows
proved futile, and the three drowned
as above stated.
DIS. Smith and Winberg were tele-
phoned for and went out immediatelv
out the young ladies had passed be-
yond the reach of human aid. Dr.
Louis Nelson. John Nelson, Thos. IT.
Canfield, and Mrs. J. E. Bake were on
the scene Immediately after the acct
dent, but their efforts and the efforts
OF the physicians to resusciate the
Misses Jordahl and Miss King were
without avail. Miss Nellie Jordahl's
BODY was recovered by Mr.. Marcus
Erickson, after two hours of diligent
search.
The gloom caused in Lake Park by
the sad ending of happy picnic par
ty, and the sadness in the homes of
relatives and friends is indescribable.

ARTIFICIAL LAKE.
fessenden People Rejoice at Pond on
Edge Of the Village.

The railroad graders have been fin
ished their work on the dam below the
bridge and If the river fills up to the
grade we will have respectable sized
pond right on the edge of town which
will add much to the desirability OF the
locality. But there are a good many
more things to be done to improve and
beautifuy the surrounding and an i'm
provement league should be organized
by our citizens with the object in view
The plating of park and planting it
with trees would be most commend
able work and now is the time to do If
How many larger towns are without a
park or public plat simply for the rea-
son that it was not started when the
opportunities were most favorable.
Then we should stock the lake With
hsh, and build small dock and boat
mouse and have, two or three boats.
This is no idle dream but should be
considered by all lovers of sport and
recreation.-Wells County Free Press

New System Of Making Wine.

Wine germs. which make it possible
to duplicate the famous wines of
Bordeaux. Burgundy or the Rhine, are

scientists. The germs are obtained
from the dregs of casks which have
contained genuine old wine. and those
for each particular brand are placed
for safe-keeping in substance pre-
pared from Japanese isinglass and
fruit Juice. In the jelly-like mass the
germs soon establish colony. When
needed sufficient germs may be placed
in tube Of sterilized fruit Juice.
After two or three days the Juice will
be in full fermentation with plentiful

Slighted Love.

Only some withered roses.
Crumbling with dry decay;
Only a letter. yellow with age,
Yet carefully laid away.
Only a woman's love sighted,
Only loved for day:
Only woman's life ,blighted,
Blighted forever and aye.
Only future of sadness.
Only a heart full of sorrow;
Only regrets and hcartaches.
TO dawn on each day and morrow
Mid the scent of those dry shattered
Sweet memories their fragrance re-
But it's only woman's heart broken;
Only a womans-that is all.

For he sang of the SORROWS of fleeting
years
And the hopes which the dead past
And souls in anguish their burdens
And the world was sadder than ever

found that bread made in the following
manner was considered very palatable
by all who partook Of it. To every
pint of good -four add one level tea
spoonful of salt, and sufficient soda to
neutralize the acid of the clabbered
sweet milk, or tne butter milk you pro-
pose using. Make dough soft enough
to mix easily with large spoon, and
if to be used while fresh and hot no
shortening need be added. Pour into
suitable baking pan, well creased
with nice sweet lard. Exercise good
Judgment in cooking, as the lack of
shortening will cause the bread to be-
come tough and indigestible if allowed
to remain too long in the even. With
the addition OF No. / butter / have en-
joyed this cheap and easily prepared
bread as much as have slice Of
