Overcome BY Gas.

The home of E. Ellingson on Fifth
street was the scene last Saturday
morning of an unpleasant experience
as the result of escaping gas fumes
from a coal stove during the night
which had been inhaled by members
OF the family. A new stove had just
been installed and it was found upon
investigation that there was a slight
defect in it, just enough to allow a
small leakage of gas. This had come
during the night thru the hot air pipe
leading to room above, which was
occupied by Carl Ellingson, and an
adjoining room was occupied by his
sisters, Misses Emma and Rachel.
When they awoke in the morning they
found themselves nearly asphyxiated,
but were able to get down stairs. The
young ladies were in a semi-conscious
condition thruout the forenoon. Carl
did not fare quite so badly, as fort
unately some OF the gas had escaped
thru small opening in a window in
his room, and he was able to attend
to his work during the day. The Ia
dies however were in such a weakened
condition that they were obliged to
remain at home the remainder of the
day.

to Mt. Carmel, a trip by wagon from
Haifa to Joppa, with stop-over at

and brief review of his visit to the

Death Reiieves~Suforer.

\ After suffering for the past twelve
years with paralysis, Mrs. Lena Peter
son passed away on Tuesday evening
of last week at her home on south
First street. The end came at six
o'clock and death came as great re-
lief to the patient sufferer, who was
in such a helpless condition that for
the past four years she had to be cared
for as a child.
The first stroke of paralysis twelve
years ago left the unfortunate woman
with her entire right side paralyzed
and also effected her power of speech.
Suffering several paralytic strokes
later on, her condition gradually grew
there could be no earthly relief rela-
tenderly nursed her, patiently await
ing the end. Her devoted daughter,
Miss Matilda Peterson, was with her
to the end and had attended to her
every comfort for the past several
years.
Deceased was born Dec. 81, 1888, at
Roda, Vermland, Sweden, and was
thus at the time of her death just 68
years, one month and IA days old.
She was united in marriage in 1861 to
Lars Peterson, who passed away ten
years later. The family came to
America in 1871 and Mrs. Peterson
came to her fathers home in the town
of Lake Andrew, where she remained
until November, 1895, when she was
stricken with paralysis. Shortly after
this first stroke she was removed to
this city, where she had been cared for
by her relatives ever since.
Deceased was a sister of Louis Rod
lun and Mrs. August Johnson, both of
Willmar; a brother, Olof Rodlun, re-
sides at Portland, Ore. The children
who survive the mother are Mrs JOS
eph Michaels of Minneapolis, L.
Peterson of Lake Andrew and the
daughter with whom she lived in this
city, all of whom were present at the
funeral.
The funeral took place last Friday
afternoon at two O'Clock from the res
idence. Rev. G.. Peterson of the
Swedish Lutheran church otficiated at
the last sad rites. The interment was
in Fairview cemetery.
