ROSEHILL.

The creamery at Munich appears to
be interesting many of the people around
here as we have recently noted that a
number have been investing in separa-
tors of late.
Mrs. Fl. Koehn, the we'll known nurse
of the Rosehill neighborhood and at
Munich, is at present making her home
at A. A. Reimer. who live a mile west
of the postofice.
During the past week a little baby
girl has been born to Mr.. and Mrs. Paul
Groghowsky who are we'll known resi-
dents of this township. The little one is
reported as being thriving and healthy.
Jacob Warkenin surely thinks that he
has bought the finest team of working
horses that we're ever brought into
Munich. The price he paid for them
was $3.50 and they certainly are handles.
c. j. Janzen is going to have an auc-
ton sale at his place on sec. II in Hen
derson township on Wednesday, March
ID. 1t is the intention of himself and
family to return to their former home at
Mountain Lake, Mimi.

fish. He has sold several loads of good
fish which he brought over from Rock
Lake, Manitoba.
We understand that, John Penner has
sold his driving horse, and is out look
ing for another one. John was oyer to
the home of c. w. Toews with his
photograph last week and an enjoyable
evening was spent. John is getting to
be quite an expert giving exhibitions
with his photograph.
A party of young men came up from
Manitoba on Saturday of last week.
They we're John r. Frlesen, Abram
Penner and David Enss the latter's
home is near Morris, Manitoba. Abram
Penner, we understand is going to work
for his, uncle, Peter Penner. of Waterloo
township. Abram has also visited his
parents in the Northwest of Canada
where his youngest brother was accident
ally shot through his legs and had to
have one of his feet amputated.
Some of our young people along the
Munich mail route have lately played
havoc with the farmers mail boxes
Nearly all boxes were turned over and
smashed to splinters. This is the second
or third time that boxes along this route
have been played with, and some of the
boys may have "Uncle Sam after them.

met with some of the law breakers

Most everybody around here is start
ing preparations for the springs work
getting the seed ready for the coming
crop. In many instances around here
this is making necessary the hauling to
market of wheat from the granary so
that they can clean their seed.
On Tuesday night of last week the
eight month old baby girl of Mr.. and
Mrs. H. j. Wall died after a short ill
ness of lung fever, the funeral being
held Saturday at the Rosehill cemetery.
The Wall family have been sorely affiict-
ed with sickness during the winter and
the death of the past week takes the
last of their family of three little chill
dren. Their eldest boy died two weeks
ago from diphtheria, a younger child
having previously been taken away early
in February by the same character of
disease. M UGH sympathy is felt for the
parents in the hour of their affection.

ment entered into June IS, 1908, be-
tween the Southern Pacific company

In tho opinion of the commission
the abrsgAtiOn OF the agreement is of
the highest importance. The facts
concerning II were developed at the
recent inquiry into the relations of the

California Posse Took Nobleman for
Murderer.
A supposed desperate who was
killed at willows, Cal, Monday after
a running fight with a posse of Off
GERS has been identified as Count Otto
Won Valdstein, of Austria, q scion of
a noble family of history, a nephew to
a cardinal and to Prince Wurtemburg,
one of the richest men in Franz Jo-
seph's empire.
h identification was made at
Willows by Miss Mary Fitzgerald, of
San Francisco, who knew him well,
after the body of the young nobleman
had been exhumed from the potter's
field.
Count Otto died fighting, believing
he was attacked by a band of robbers.
The POSSE thought it had run down
Smith, the murderer of John Marco
vich, OF Oakland.
Otto left Austria six years ago be-
cause Of a love affair. He fought
through the Boer war. He wandered
to America, a poor man, without a
profession, to work with his hands for
existence. He quit a job in Placer
county the day before his death and
was walking toward San Francisco.

BOISE FEARS ORDEAL.
Nervous Dread of Tragedy During
Miners Trial.

Counsel for the prosecution and de-
Tense in the s~teunenberg murder case
at Boise. Idaho, have settled down to
their final preparation work and there
is every reason for believing that the
trial Of William Haywood. first Of the
accused, will be commenced on Thurs
day next.
Various reports as to moves tend
Ing to further delay the trial are in
circulation. but the attitude of both
sides indicates hat they are ready
to &c to the bar for trial. The only
preliminary proceedings pending is a
motion by the defense for a. bin of
particulars of the evidence from
which the state hopes to show that
Haywood c~onspired in the murder of
Steunenberg.
Violence is the ever present fear.
The position of the prisoners and their
activity through years of bitter labor
warfare, the d~issension over their ar
rest in Colardo and removal to Idaho,
the rallying of thousands of working
men to their support and the radical
propaganda undertaken in their be-
half, together with the intense feel
ing against the Mine owners associa-
ton and other incidents have served,
rightly or wrongly. to make the case
in the minds and attitude of thou
sands Il contest between the classes
rather han a trial for the alleged
crime of murder.
In few minds is there belief that
Haywood, nfoyer and Pettibone, their
friends or the men affiliated with
them in labor union circles would ap-
prove, much less encourage, any act
of violence at this time, because such
act, it is believed. would be a fatal
error.

FOR BLOWING UP A CHURCH.
Case Against an Alleged Pennsylvania
D~ynaInitcr Given to Jury.

Case Against an Alleged Pennsylvania
Dynamitcr Given to Jury.
All the evidence in the case of Jo-
seph C~hunowsky, charged with dyna-
hitting the Welsh Congregational
at Edwardsville, Pa. two years ago,
was given to the jury Thursday.
Sensational evidence vas introduce
ed in this case when a man named
Stephen Savage confessed on the stand
that he and Chunowsky had been
promised s125 if they blew up the
church. the money to be paid by a
certain saloonkeeper who had been
refused a liquor license by the court.
Savage implicated a prominent bust
ness man of Edwardsville as being the
one who was ready to pay the money.
This man was on hand Thursday to
take the stand and deny the statement
made by Savage, but the court said it
was not necessary, as there was no di-
rect evidence to show he had anything
t. do with the deed.
