and bushes man of Olivia, died at
the family home in this village.

ton. Death followed blood poison

Lake Wilson Pilot, Nine former
residents Of Pipestone passed
through here on Monday mornings
train, securely bound with handouts
and shackles. The bunch were on
their way to their new homes at
Saltwater and St. Cloud. where
they will find employment with the
state for several years; the highest
term being five years and the lowest
six months. The outfit is part of a
bunch Of petty thieves who have
been plying their dishonest vocation
in that city for some time.
Fairfax Standard The Citizens
Band of Fairfax returned Saturday
evening from their ten days outing
at Lake Marian. The boys enter
tanned at the Grove Hotel, presided
over by Landlord Kartsen, and I'M
hesitatingly pronounce him an ideal
landlord, as do all who are fortunate
enough to be quartered there. Re-
turning the band spent Saturday in
Norwood where they furnished mu-
sic for monster market day gath
ering. AS in other places where the
local band have appeared they made
a distinct hit with the crowd.
Hutchinson Leader: Although
the law allows four rods for road
ways less than twenty feet is suffi-
cient and we are glad to observe
that farmers quite generally through
Mcleod county are beginning to
pillow up and add to their fields the
land in the highways not actually
needed for driveway. This I'M
used land amounts to hundreds of
acres and in many places is a mere
nesting place for weeds. The coun-
try looks much better with it used
and made a part of the adjoining
field and the crop area of the coun-
ty will be that much increased.
Brown Co. Journal: Geo. Palmer
of West Newton came to this city
Monday morning with big load Of
fish. He had caught during the
early morning eight catfish. the larg-
est weighing sc pounds. the total
weight of the bunch being 24O
pounds. He sold them to various
parties at five cents a pound. netting
him S12. In addition thereto Mr..
Palmer told one of the prize fish
stories of the season, by stating
that on account of the thousands of
big catfish infesting the Minnesota
river caused an inundation of his po-
tato patch and that it was case of
self-preseryation to capture them,
as they were uprooting his tubers.
Morgan Messenger: Edward, the
seventeen year old son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Wenzel Prockosch of Clements

slight scratch on his hand and blood
poisoning developed, which was the
cause of his death. He seemed to be
enjoying good health and was in the
best of spirits up to a short time
before his death and attended church
at Morgan last Sunday. Post

tend the seventh annual meeting of

companied by his family who will
