Return from Pleasant TriD.

MIR. and Mrs. J. E. Leslie re-
turned home yesterday from three
months tour of the west. Their
itinerary included no less than II
states, in each of which they not
only saw the sights but also found
old time neighbors and friends with
whom they renewed acquaintances.
They ran across good many former
Wlllmarites on their journey, es-
pecially in Spokane, where they saw
c. A. Birch, W. W. Knight, Mrs. G.
EIlingson, Earl Hyer, Mrs. Gauth-
rie, nee Pearl Hyer, and Charles
Koch. In Seattle they visited Mrs.
and Mrs. M. G. Rigg. Seattle will
be remembered by the Leslies for
another reason. for Mr.. Leslie was
taken i'll with erysipelas, and had
to stay in hospital for 10 days.
Mr.. Leslie was very much i'm
pressed with the western country.
He was especially delighted with
the climate as we'll as the land in
Washington and Oregon, and he
says the possibilities and opportun-
tiles out there are exceptional.

OBITUARY.
Continued From First Page.

built a small residence on a lot ad-
joining the home of c. M. Lawson,
Mrs. Lawson being sister of her
late husband. Here she lived the
last twenty two years of her life.
She was lady of the most lovable
disposition, and she radiated sun
shine and comfort wherever she
came. Until the infirmities of old
age interviewed she was busy as a
nurse, and many a sickroom was
cheered by her comforting presence.
She was an active member of the
Lebanon Lutheran church and
taught a class in the Sunday School
for many years. She passed away
firm in the faith Of the Christian.
The only blood relative known to
survive her is a niece, Mrs. S. P.
Almquist, of Kennedy. Kittson
county. But she was as firmly
knit in the affections Of the rela-
tives Of her last husband as had she
been more closely related. She is
mourned by them and her memory
will be ever cherished by them.
She is also as truly mourned by a
large circle of friends in the New
London community, at Willmar and
elsewhere.
The funeral occurred yesterday.
There were brief services at the
residence. Rev. Gustaf Peterson of
Willmar, the officiating clergyman,
read scriptural passage from II
Cor. 5, 10, and Samuel Nelson of
Wilmar sang, "Brudens Gladje."
The funeral service was held at the
Norwegian church, owing to the
fact that the Swedish church is
undergoing repairs. Rev. Peterson
made Rev. 14:13 the subject of the
funeral sermon. The church choir
sang an appropriate selection and
Sam Nelson sang, "Salla dag. mar
jag far ga hem." The interment
took place at the Lebanon church
yard in the Lawson family lot. A.
ter the service the church quartette
sang NEARER my God, to Thee,"
as the casket was slowly lowered to
its resting place.
Those attending the funeral from
Willmar were Rev. Peterson, Mr..
and Mrs. Sam Nelson, MIR. and Mrs.
V. E Lawson, Mrs. j. A. Nord-
gren, Mrs. Hulda Nelson and Miss
Jennie Bergquist.

Former WIllmar Girl Injured.

The Milaca Times Of last week
contains the following account 0f
an accident to Miss Charlotte Law4
son, a daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
John Lawson, formerly residents of
this city:
During the ball game Sunday af-
ternoon Miss Charlotte Lawson was
severely injured, and will be laid
up for several weeks as a conse-
quence. One of the Ogilvie play
ers batted high foul fly near the
third base line and Lloyd Wilkes
made an effort to get it. Think
ing the coast clear he started on a
run from the pitchers box and
made desperate attempt to reach
it and collided with Miss Lawson
who was watching the game from
that point. She tried to get out of
the way, but in the excitement ran
right into Mr.. Wilkes, and both
fell to the ground. She was hur-
ried in an automobile to her home
and DIR. Bacon summoned and found
she had broken the third rib, in
jured her right shoulder, fractured
her right elbow and broke small
bone in her left hand. He bandaged
and set the broken members and
she is recovering nicely according
to the many injuries she received.
Lloyd was knocked out of breath
but resumed playing as soon as he
was revived. 1t was an unhappy
circumstance and an accident that
may happen once in life time."

East Wins Two Games.

East pounded the South pitcher
hard last Wednesday afternoon, and
won the game by a score of : to 3.
East and South have now won two
games each, and they will meet this
afternoon to decide the champion
ship. The winners will be awarded
a fine pennant by the Tribune, or
they will have their choice of a
Reach or Spalding ball. or the best
bat in the collection at Carlson
Bros. & Frost. Herbert Hengstler
will act as umpire. and the sport
ing editor of the Tribune will keep
score. The rivalry between East
and South has been intense, and the
game will be worth going miles to
see. 1t will start at 4 o'clock and
will continue until the sun is down
or all the bats are broken, or the
umpire and score keeper are laid
up.
East and Lafayette clashed Fri
day afternoon, the former winning
by heavy batting. scoring Is to La
fayette's'4. Notable features of the
game were the heavy hitting of
Hoglund, Erickson and Berg. the
large number of balls which were
batted into Lars Hedin's yard, Roy
Anderson. Lafayette's pitcher, being
hit by batted ball, and the fact
that three umpires were used.
The first two had to quit because
they got cross-eyed trying to follow
the ball around the yards and lots
and sloughs.

Tax Sale Smallest Ever.

The annual tax judgment sale
was held last Monday. The total
amount sold was $2260.32, the
smallest amount ever offered for
sale in this county.
County Auditor Feig thinks even
this amount could be materially re-
duced by sending out notices to de-
linquent tax payers. He finds that
in good many cases the delin-
quent ones have paid the first half
of their taxes and have forgotten
about the other half. Some coun-
ties are sending these notices now
with excellent results.
In such cases the tax payer would
be saved good deal of money as
the tax certificates sold bear IL per
cent interest.

day the transfers were made thru

company. The Scenic theater was
closed last night and will continue
closed indefinitely, but Dreamland
will continue as heretofore. The
syndicate will buy and exhibit only
the best and latest in moving pic
lures, and from time to time novel;

the programs.
