HUMBOLDT, Neb., Jan. 1s.-(special.)-
Julius Lutholtz. a well known German
farmer residing near the Kansas state
line, twelve miles south of this city, and
his son. were killed yesterday by an ex-
plosion of dynamite.
The farmer and his two sons, with
nephew, were engaged In ditching across
the yard and were using dynamite to
loosen up the frozen surface of the ground.
The elder Lutzholtz was carrying several
sticks OF the explosive in basket and
placing a charge, when in some manner
terrific explosion occurred, resulting IN
the death of the father and one son, stand
ing near at hand The elder Lutholtz was
frightfully mangled, the force of the ex-
plosion tearing OF both legs and one arm.
while the other arm was torn OF at the
elbow. He retained consciousness for
nearly two hours after the accident, but
could not communicate with his folks the
exact facts concerning the origin OF the
trouble. II is supposed that in attempting
to light the fuse attached to the charge
! in the ground some sparks might have
communicated to the sticks OF the fuse I'm
the basket, but none OF the participants
have been able to tell how It really hap
pened
The son. II years of age, who was stand
ing nearest his father when the accident
occurred. received the full force Of the ex-
plosion in his side and was also struck by
several pieces OF frozen soil in the head
His wounds resulted in his death this
| morning
The other son and nephew also sustained
a number Of dangerous wounds and suffered
severely from the force of the shock. Some
doubt exists as 10 whether they will both
survive their injuries.
All the victims belong to the Mennonite
settlement which il quite strong in that
region. The double funeral took place at
the church Of that organization today and
an immense crowd from all over the south
part OF the county attended.
Farmers living six and seven miles distant

Dr. McGlauflin has met the local group of his faith in a so- cial way and also preached on Sunday last to unexpectedly large congregations in Odd Fellows hall, and the financial re- sponse to his call for pledges in carrying on the new work was a happy surprise to all.
 Dr. McGlaufin was accompanied by the Rev. 0. H. Shinn, D. D., southern missionary, who some years ago organ ized the Universalists here into church and added some thirty members. Many more have been found who will now af- filiate. The new minister will be settled in the early fall.
