of Mr.. and Mrs. J. O. Sether, was
held on Thursday afternoon last
week. Rev. G. ]. Nolstad conducted
the service and spoke in words Of
tenderest sympathy and comfort, Of
deepest Christian hope and promise.
Bertram Ludwig was the name Of
the little boy. His death occurred on

And thus little bud Of humanity
was removed from this cold and
dreary world to unfold and blossom
more perfectly III that better land on
the other shore. And though he
leaves an aching void IN the hearts
of the fond parents yet they realize
that their little darling Is safe. and
has only gone before to become q
link binding them with heaven. =.

AGED MAN MURDERED.
Chris Walher a New Ulm Hermit Found
. Dead in his Home.

New Ulm, Minn., Jan. 1O.-Chris
Walher, sixty-d years old, wasfound
murdered in his home in North Ger
man street, about six blocks from the
business section of the city. From
the condition of the house, robbery
plainly was the motive for the crime,
but there is no clue % the identity Of
the murderer other than that the po-
lice belive it to have been somebody
familiar with the habits Of the man.
They think tho oct was deliberately
planned and that Walher had been
watched for some time. .~s~
There IL nothing to show when tho
crime was committed, and the man
may have lain dead fully twenty-four
hours before he was found. He had
no relatives In this part Of the country
except . brother, Fred Walher, q far
mer in the town Of Oottswood, who
has been notified OF the tragedy.

ing Of the council was held at which
the city fathe1s gave the authorizes

At the ooronor's inquest It was de.
veleped that Walher was not In

and left unprotected and probably
died from exposure.
There is no clue whatever to guilty

ottawa, Ont, Jan. Ill am per
fectly satisfied that my mission to
Japan on behalf of the Canadian gov.
ernment has been an entire success"
That was the statement made Fri
day by Hon. H. Lemieux as he was
about to see the prime minister.

give any, details concerning the i'm
portant business which was entrusted
to me, have no objection to saying

press from Tokyo that my mission

that failed because did not tabe
the American ambassador into my
confidence. In that regard I do not
think that the Canadian parliament
or the Canadian people will blame
me-"
1T has been also stated In the press
that there was some clashing between
yourself and the representatives Of
the British foreign Office" was sug-
gested.
Nothing could be further from the
truth. The facts are the other way"
said Mr.. Lemieux.
Speaking generally Mr.. Lemieux
said he was received by the Japanese
authorities In the most friendly spirit
Japan was proud Of her alliance with
Great Britain and the result was
strong friendship for Canada, as part
of the British empire. Canada upon
her own account was we'll thought
of in Japan. Canadians were found
there in every walk of life, doing we'll.
The prospects of an increasing trade
between the two countries in the near
future ma5e this bond all the stronger;
The great, question in Japan, Mr.,
Lemieux proceeded to say. was immi'
grafton. Whatever feeling there was
over the Vancouver affair disappeared
by the prompt action of Canada and
the letter of Sir Wilfrid Laurier. There
was a general impression that Canada
could not be held responsible for the
Vancouver matter. Japan was looking
to Asiatic points for emigration te
this continent.

FATAL FIRE Panic

A Panic Immediately Followed and in
the Wild Scramble, to Reach the
Doors Scores Of Women and Lit
tie Ones were Trampled Down..

Boyertown, Pa, Jan. 14.-A catas-
eroPhe, horrifying in it's details and
sickening in its results, last night
swept nearly 100 souls of this bor-
ough into eternity in almost the
twinkling of an eye and injured near
~ three score many of them fatally.
While the Scottish Reformation
was being produced in the Rhoades
opera house by Mrs. Monroe of Wash
lngton tank used in q moving pic
ture scene exploded.
There was mad scramble for the
sta rwly leading from the balcony
and une scores of women and children
were knocked down and trampled up
on, many of them doubtless being
crushed to death. r- ...
At least SO persons realizing that
exit by the stairways meant almost
certain death, risked their lives by
jumping from the windows.
Limbs we're broken and skulls crush
ed by this daring method of escape.
It is estimated that at least rs per-
~sons were injured by being trampled
on, either on the stairway or by
jumping from the windows of the
burning structure.
OF this number at least SCORE
were fatally injured, at least half
dozen succumbed to their injuries af-
ter being hurried to one of the tenn
porary hospitals.
Three children ranging in age from
8 to IA years, and one woman, who
were dragged from tho building by
persons who had rushed to the res
cue, had been trampled almost to a
pulp, the skull of one of the unfortu-
nate children having been crushed as
though an egg shell.
In one instance the skull of child,
apparently about ten years ofage,
was crushed almost to a jelly.
In many cases whole families, it is
said, have been wiped out.
As the flames cut their way toward
the front of the building women could
to seen to clasp their hands and fall
back into the flames.
Once the doorways were cleared
the rescuers dragged many woman
and children from the stairways lead
ing to the balcony.

the time of the exp sosion of the tanl

PROMINENT FARMER
GONE TO REST
". Woodward has Passed
Away at His home in
Eau Claire, Wis.

The people of this city were great
~ shocked this week to learn Of the
death OF Mr.. F. W. Woodward, the
we'll known owner of the bic, Snake
River Farm, or AS it is popularity
knoWnSthe Woodward Farm, in town
of Walrenton. He died at his home
In Eau Claire. Wis.,, on Monday, Jan.
Is, Of pneumonia, aged Y years and
rs days. Since the holidays he had
been sick with the grip which turn
ed Into pleurisy and afterward into
the disease which terminated his
life. 49,. -'
Mr.. Woodward spent q large part
OF his time here looking after his
extensive farming interests, especi-
ally during the summers, and for
that reason was so we'll known here
that he was considered one of our
citizens. He was..a man who tended
strictly to business, and::his farm
had the reputation of being the
most successful of all the so-called
''biR farms" in the.county. In the
early days the Woodward farm was
great boon to the poor homestead
settlers in this and adjoining coun-
ties by furnishing them employment
anda chance to earn something
while making.a.start on their own
farms. Scores of well-to-do farmers
In the county today have worked on
this farm, which always was
considered good and sure pay. Mr.
Woodward himself was a practical
farmer, who used his brains in carry
ing on the work. He was a we'll
educated man: and conducted many
experiments to ascertain correct
methods. There was perhaps no
better posted man on small grain
growing in this part of the state.
Not only as farmer and business
man have our people met the de-
ceased. but also in social circles,
where he ALWAYS was a very agree
able and genial 'old gentleman. -
He was a good musician. and a
number of year ago he occasionally
took part In concerts given by home
talent. And wherever our people
|have come in touch.with::Mr. Wood
ward they have learned to appreciate
and love him for his uprightness and
manly virtues.

TO them in their sorrow this com
munity . extends its heartfelt
sympathy. MAY their consolation
be that he whom they now mourn Il
not dead, but only asleep-restinl

upon earth. And from th'
beauty Of his life may they take al

so that when the summons

1t was a great disappointment t.

pointed TO Grand Lodge.

Milton, May 1.-The Bank of Mil
ton, which was incorporated in 1885
as a private bank. has applied to the
comptroller Of the treasury at Wash
ington for a charter and will soon be
converted into a national bank, to be
known as the First National Bank OF
Milton, with a capital of $4,000. The
banks business for the year closing
March 81 shows an average increase
over the previous year of 25 pei
cent. The total resources of the bank
are $40, 900, of which $40, 900 is cash
on hand and sight exchange. The net
surplus and undivided profits for the
past year were $4,000, an increase
of $5400 over the previous year. This
section of the country is growing so
rapidly, that all businesses are being
improved in proportion.
The executive board of the Colum.
bia college, the South Methodist COL
lege at this place, has secured an op.
ton on 20 acres of excellent land just
west of the present site of the college,
and within less than two blocks Of
the electric car line. which will be
as declared by all the business men
the proper location for a new school
building, and a greater Columbia"
In order to raise the $4,000 now
proposed by the board Of education, 1t
will be necessary for the citizens Of
Milton to give at least $12,5OO, Of
which $4,000 has already been pledged
by four individuals. The college has
many friends in the neighboring
states, and 1t is thought that the ball
ance of the money can be easily rails
ed. A committee is now engaged in
raising the funds.
