A NATIONAL
CHURCH SOCIAL
Young People of Synod Church
Carry out an Interesting
Program Monday.

''An Affair of Nations" at the
Synod church basement Monday
evening proved one of the most de-
lightful doings of the season.
Various countries were represented
by booths, each in charge of ma
tives" and one could easily imagine
himself in real up-to-date Euro
pean restaurant in "Gay Paree, !"
where travellers from many lands
many enjoy their own national
dishes, the kind that 'mother used
to make. In Norway" Miss Nellie
Botnen and Nordahl Thorpe served
"lefse, 'fattigmallsbakkelse" and
coffee, and in Sweden" ;" which by
the way, was located in the same
booth, Miss Alma Johnson and
Miner Anders on hand ed ou
''knackebr0d" and coffee. OF
course everybody talked 'tNorsk"
and "Svenska" here, easily outdo-
ing Miss Bertha Thorpe and Nor
man Tallakson, who in a booth next
door handed out tempting cups of
tea and waters in the quiet and
pleasing manner of the Japanese.
The Japanese are not much on talk,
so the impersonators had very lit
tie to say, but we noticed that they
were very busy. The next booth
was in charge of Mr.. and Mrs.
Uncle Sam (alia) Miss Leonora
Boyd and Edgar Sather), and they
did tremendous business in EVA
terlemon" and ''lemonwater" Or
something like that. Last, but by
no means the least. we found "Ice-
land" in charge of Miss Gertrude
Hilleboe and Olof Knutson. 1t
was a snow-and-ice cave from the
roof of which hung suspended real
icicles which even the winning
smile of Miss Hilleboe could not
melt. Here the natives were busy
selling their staple product, ice
bergs, served in the shape Of little
cones surcharged with vanilla flavor
and sweet cream. In spite Of the

CRUELTY TO DOG
is PUNISHED
Village of Penpock is Wrought
Up Over a Case Of Eurninq
Dog With Deadly Acid.

A most unusual case Of cruelty
to animals was heard before Judge
Muller in municipal court Monday
afternoon. The culprit was w. A.
Strand, buyer Of farm produce at
Pennock, and he was charged with
having Wilfully and maliclously
poured sulphuric acid on a dog be-
longing to J. E. Bergstrom,
blacksmith Of that village. Ac-
cording to the testimony, this in
human act was committed on the
afternoon Of August 3, in the pres
ence of Albert Larson and Nels
Greenfield, and the dog was so bad
ly burned by the poison that he had
to be killed on Tuesday of last
week. Besides the above men,
toned gentlemen, Gunder Haug
and Mr.. Bergstrom testified as to
the condition Of the dog after the
awful treatment given him by
| Strand. No reason for the brutal
act could be imagined by the prose-
cution except that Strand was
''tired of being bothered by dogs"
and when he had poured the acid
on the helpless brute he said, f'that
makes one dog less" Mr.. Larson
testified that the dog was across the
street from Strands place of bust
ness and that, without any provoca-
tion whatever, he, Strand, poured
some acid into a measure, walked
across the street and poured it on
the dog. The animal ran away,
but returned home the next morn
ing, when his frightful condition
was discovered. Attempts were
made to heal the burns, but to no
avail, and family the dog was
killed..
Mr.. Strand on the stand fatty de-
MED the charge. He had not at
any time poured any acid on any
dog anywhere. In fact, at the
time mentioned he had no acid left.
Several dogs had been in his place
Of business in The morning, one of
, them tipped over a pail in which
there was some acid mixed with
other liquids, and if the dog was
injured it must have been at that
time. But in the face of the testi-
mony produced by the four witnes-
ses for the state, his story did not
seem probable, and the judge found
him guilty. He was sentenced to
pay q fine Of $40 and costs, making
a total of $53, or 40 days in Jail.
He chose to pay the fine.
The dog was a bird hunter,
three years old. 1t was a valuable
animal, Mr.. Bergstrom having re-
fused to take $l00 for him last fall.
Naturally, the crime caused great
deal OF resentment among the peo-
| pie of Pennock and vicinity, all Of
whom felt that the culprit ought to
be made to suffer the consequences
of his brutal deed. More than 20
men from up that way attended the
trial, and they expressed them
selves as pleased with the sentence
imposed.
