death from blood poisoning is noted
on the third page of this paper, was
first infected while trying to fix his
automobile while coming to Red
wood Falls, Aug. 21st. While at |
tempting to reach the defective
parts his hand came in contact with |
the rapidly revolving blades on the
cooling fan. slightly cutting a finger
on his right hand The injury ap-
peared trivial at first, but the hos
pital authorities were helpless after
the poison had entered the system
of the unfortunate man.
Referring to the recent accident
to young Grow of the Boys Sex
tette, at Morton, the Tracy Herald |
says that the injured boy is one of
the sons of Mike Grove, who is a

when the accident occurred and |
about the same time he received !
the message of the sad affair, he
also got word from Midland, S. D.,
that his daughter who was visiting
relatives had accidentally had an
eye put out. Mr.. Grove has the
sympathy of all in the hour of SO
much trouble"
Miss Short, on her return back to
town. remarked that it looked to
her as though the whole town had
been camping during the last sum-
mer. Everybody was tanned. And,
as usual, our dignified principal was
correct. During the latter part of
the summer hardly an evening has
passed but from two to dozen
family groups were out getting
camp supper or dinner along the
river. The underbrush and dried
twigs have been picked as clearly
along the falls north of town as
though it had been done by design.
Our people have lived half of the
time out of doors. By next year
the habit will be formed.
