The first thunder shower of the sea-
son in Augusta got along shortly be-
fore o'clock Friday afternoon, and
While it was not much of a demonstra-
ton on the part of the elements it pos
sessed the features necessary to classi-
fy it. 1t had the thunder, also the
lightning in small quantities, but little
rain fell and the main part of the pre-
cipitatiOn was in the form of hail
stones as big as peas.

Two Deaths Sadden Home.

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. A. G..
Skoog has been sorely afflicted the
past week, the Angel of Death remov-
ing from the family the two youngest
children. Early Friday morning Cliff

passed away, after suffering for some
time with stomach troubles, and on
Monday evening Autumn Evangeline,
the 19 months old daughter, was seized
with convulsions and cramps, result
ing in paralysis of the entire left side.
The little one died about midnight.
She had been cutting teeth and the
condition of the child gradually grew
worse, with the final sad results as
stated above.
Necessary arrangements had been
made for holding the funeral of the in
FAINT son on Tuesday when the second
death occurred and both of the chill
dren will now be buried today The
funeral will be held this afternoon at
two o'clock Services will be con-
Quoted at the family residence by Rev.

bereavement which has befallen it.

Aged Father Passed Away.

Mrs. p. H. Parsons has returned
from her trip to New York state, where
she had been called by the serious ILL
ness of her aged father, George S.
Belknap. Mrs. Parsons arrived too
late to see her father in life, the cold
hand of death having touched him on
ly the night before her arrival. The
end came on Sunday, Jan. 13. Death
was due principally to Bright's dis
ease.
Deceased was 79 years old. He was
native of New York state and came
to Minnesota in 1877. The family re-
sided for many years in Union Grove
and ten years ago the wife and mother
passed away, since which time the de-
ceased had made his home the greater
part of the time with his Willmar
daughter. He left here about year
ago to make his home with his New
York daughters. The surviving men,
bers of the family are four daughters
Mrs. Ada f. Turner and Miss Mary
Alice Belknap, both of New York
City; Mrs. Jessie Hamblen, of Cor
ham, Me-, and Mrs Cora Parsons, of
Willmar.
MIR. Belknap was the oldest member
left of one of the highest orders of
New York City-''The Sons of Cincin-
natns." He was quite we'll known at
Union Grove and in this county and
was highly respected gentleman.

A deal which had been pending for
the past month was closed yesterday,
when Peterson & Wellin, the we'll
known proprietors of .'The Leading
Store, - purchased the Page Depart
ment store building, more familiarly
known to old residents as the old Dale
y Roisr block, corner of Fifth street
and Benson avenue. The consider
alton was $1l, 1000, the property being
bought from F. G. Handy, who has
been the owner for the past few years.
This also includes the fixtures.
Messrs. Peterson and Wellin have
taken possession of their newly ac-
qulred property and will at once make
plans for remodeling it and building
an addition on the west end. AS soon
as 1t is put into the proper shape for
the handling of their rapidly increas-
ing business, they will remove their
stock to the new location. This COR
ner is considered one of the choicest
business locations in the city and be-

Old Friend and Neighbor "Caned."

! A large party of old friends and
neighbors of O. B. Glarum, nearly all
members of the Lutheran Free church,
gave him most pleasant surprise at
his farm home last Monday evening.
There were over forty in the gathering
and they arrived at the house all pre-
pared with eatables and the anticipa-
tion of spending fine social evening
with their old friend and neighbor.
The main feature of the evening was
the presentation to Mr.. Glarum of a
fine gold-headed cane. The gift was
presented to him on behalf of those
present by Rev. Michaelson. A nice
lunch was served about ten O. clock and
the self-invited guests had a most de-
lightful time enjoying the hospitality
of the Glarum home.
