BIG CROWD ATTENDS
Hundreds of Visitors From Country
Enjoy the Attractions Pre-
sented on Market Day.
Street Sports Particularly Entertain
ing and Automobile Rides One
of the Chief Features,

That Princeton's monthly market
day is highly appreciated by our
country cousins was manifested
beyond degree Of doubt on Satur-
day, when the village was literally
crowded with pleasure and bargain
seekers. The prevailing favorable
weather permitted the program of
sports to be carried out as advertised,
and that the contests were enjoyed
goes without saying. In fact as much,
If not more, interest was taken in
these sports than the horse races
usually pulled off at the county fair.
Then there were the automobile ex-
cursions in which eight machines were
kept busy throughout the afternoon
giving the visitors rides about town
and around the suburbs. This feature
proved to be one of the greatest
attractions-every one seemed anxious
to take an auto spin. While it taxed
the machines to the limit, the
chauffeurs succeeded in accommodate
ing the crowd.
The free auction, conducted by M.
M. Stroeter, was highly successful.
He disposed of several head of horses.
COWS. hogs, lot of farm machinery
and implements and a miscellaneous
assortment of household utensils.
Mr.. Stroeter is an up-to-date auc-
tioneer and when he fails to effect a
sale the owner might just as we'll de-
eide to keep whatsoever he has
offered. These monthly auction sales
are splendid thing for the farmer,
as nine times out of ten he can dis
pose OF his property at a good figure.
Merchants in general were we'll
satisfied with the business transacted
and will offer other special induce
ments at the monthly market on
August %.
The field, or rather street sports.
were conducted by Magnus Sjoblom.
NJ. NJ. Stroeter, Marshal Cravens and
Will Mirick and were in detail as fol-
lows:
Wheelbarrow race-First prize, So
suit case, Lawrence Clough; second,
81. hat, Rolleff Knutson. Prizes
donated by Kopp & Bartholomew.
Sack race-First prize, So Clauss
razor, Gilbert Clough; second, 81
Catterragus pocket knife, Louis Cen
now. Prizes donated by Evens Hard
ware Co.
Potato rolling race-First prize, So
waist, Kate Judkins; second, So white
linen skirt, Annie Bultman. Prizes
donated by A.. E. Allen & Co.
Egg race-First prize, SO petticoat,
Alma Riebe; second, So corset, Mrs.
Il. j. Hunt. Prizes donated bv P. L.
Roadstrom.
2O0-yard dash-First prize So pair
shoes, Lawrence Clough; second, 81
pair shoes, Chas. Wentworth. Prizes
donated by Frank Peterson.
A word of praise is due the band
which furnished music for the oc-
casion. The boys stuck to their task
throughout the afternoon despite the
excessive heat which prevailed and
furnished fairly good music.
The date of the next monthly market
day is August %.

where the Court House is Needed.

The depot and water tank at Milaca
were repainted last week which leads
the Times to remark that the pros
poets for much-needed new depot are
remote. The Times consolingly adds
that the court house and new depot
would add greatly to Milaca s beauty,
and they are coming. A new depot is
something that Milaca needs and
ought to have, but why the court
house: If the convenience of litigants
is taken into consideration Onamia is
the place for the county capitol; one
individual up there can furnish more
business for the courts and juries than
Milaca and Princeton combined.

James Dugan Passes Away on Monday
Evening Following Amputa-
tion of His Right Leg.
Neis Giibertson of Greenbush and Will
liam Lind of Santiago Are Also
Called to Their Reward.

James Dugan of Baldwin township
died at the Lester hospital on Mon
day evening, August 2, at 6 O'Clock
following an amputation Of his right
leg by DR.. Lester, who was assisted
by DR.. Galley.
On June Mr.. Dugan, while using
an axe, accidentally cut his right leg
Immediately above the kneecap. He
paid but little attention to the injury
at the time, thinking it was of trivial
nature. but finding that it became
worse he consulted DR.. Armitage, who
prescribed for him. Later he consult
ed DR.. Lester and on June 26 he was
taken to the Lester hospital, his leg
then being in bad condition. For a
time Mr.. Dugan seemed to improve,
but it was eventually deemed neces-
sary, as last resort, to amputate the
limb. This was done at 10 o'clock on
Monday last and the patient, weaken
ed from blood poisoning, failed to
rally from the shock.
In St. Edwards church yesterday
morning at O'Clock the funeral SER
vices we're conducted by Rev. Father
Levings. The sacred ediice was
crowded with the relatives and SYM
pathizing friends. The services were
exceedingly impressive and the rev.
erend gentleman paid glowing
tribute to the memory of the departed
one. The casket was literally en-
bedded in beautiful floral offerings
placed there by loving hands. The
pallbearers were selected from the
order of Catholic Foresters of which
Mr.. Dugan was a member. The
funeral procession was one of the
largest that Princeton has witnessed
for many years. The remains were
laid to rest in the pretty Catholic
cemetery Immediately adjoining Oak
Knoll.
James Dugan was born at Licking.
ton, Kentucky, on July !, 1857, and
was consequently 81 years Of age. He
came to Minnesota with his parents
in 1869, and settled at Duelm, Benton
county. There he remained until his
marriage to Miss Nora Kallher in
1884, when, with his wife, he moved
onto the farm in Baldwin township
which he owned at the time of his
death. He is survived by a widow
and eight children, and one son, Leo,
is dead. The living children are Mrs.
Moses Jesmer, Fred, Bertha, Grace,
Eva, Willie and Johnnie. He leaves
also two brothers and one sister, viz,
Frank Dugan, who resides in the
west: Owen Dugan and Mrs. Crawford,
who live in Indiana.
James Dugan was a steady, hard
working and successful farmer, as is
evidenced by his beautiful home and
well-cultivated fields. Always a con.
sistent Catholic he lived up to the
tenets of his faith. He had never
held any public Office save that Of
supervisor of Baldwin. position
which he filed for three years with
profit to his town if not to himself
He leaves a charming family tc
every member of which he was de.
votedly attached and each of whom
will revere his memory as long as
life lasts. James Dugan was a good
and useful citizen and he will be
greatly missed. The sympathy of the
entire community goes out to his
grief-stricken family who mourn the
loss of kind husband and father.

DR. A. E. RRUNN DEAD.
Bodies of Sister and Two Brothers in One House-Triple Funeral Today.

The members of the household of Dr. Armin E. Brunn of Woodstock were overwhelmed with grief in the early hours of Thursday morning, when the wounded doctors life ebbed away after every possible means of saving him from the fate of his sister Frieda and his brother Constantine had failed. It was between and 3 o'clock when Dr. Brunn died. The wound which he received from a bullet fired by his brother cut it's way through his intes- tines and it was evident to the at tending physicians, though they oper- ated. that there was little chance of saving his life-
 The people of Woodstock had not recovered from the effect of the shock Thursday and through all of this end
 of the county the sorrowful affair was of supreme interest.
 There were no developments Thurs
 day to indicate any motive for the
 crime other than insanity, though the
 fact that the large estate of the father
 of the dead Brunns has not yet been
 settled may have been matter to
 create 9 degree of unfriendliness to
 his brother on the part of Constantine
 Brunn that would perturb his natural
 ly extremely nervous condition to a
 degree that would upset him mentally.
 IL was said Thursday by residents of
 South Woodstock that Constantine has
Norwich bulletin., 1909-10-01

been eccentric and highly irritable for years and many instances are cited in an effort to establish that he was not of perfect mental balance VT [ Constantine, however, was a man of ability and was at one time a member of the government consular service. Dr. Brunn also was man of promi- nence in this section. He Represented the town of Woodstock in the legisla- ture one term, was secretary of the board of management of the Day Kimball hospital a leader in the affairs of Woodstock Agricultural bociety and in many other ways was identified with the interests of the town. fr
 The estates of the Brunn brothers are two of the prettiest in beautiful Woodstock. The property was former- ly owned by the father of the Brunn brothers as a summer country place and when he was not in New York, where he was/a member of the com mission firm of Heyermeyer & Brunn, he spent the greater part of his time in Woodstock. Dr. Brunn leaves his wife, but no children. Constantine is survived by his wife and two sons Mrs. Brunn and his younger son, Ar mond, were in New York at the time of the tragedy. Ewart the elder of the two sons, had arrived at Woodstock on a>visit only a few minutes after the shooting.
 Arrangements for the triple funeral service had not been definitely decided upon Thursday. although it was thought that it would be held this (Friday) afternoon at the home of Dr. Brunn. where all three died. It was also said Thursday that the bodies of Dr. Brunn and Miss Brunn would be taken to New York, while Con- stantins would be buried in Wood stock.

 Hon. Hadlai A. Hull of New London came to Danielson Thursday evening to deliver an address in behalf of the no license cause in the town hall. St. James band played before the meet ing and the burning of red fire added touch of color to the scene. Attor- ney Hull, who was introduced by Rev. Clarence Barber, pastor of the Congre- gational church, spoke along much the same lines as he has in other recent no license speeches in other towns, and talked of his work in cleaning the liquor traffic out of Stonington.
