AvENGER FINDS VICTIM.
Frank YOnelli Comes From Sunny
Italy to Avenge His Sisters
Wrongs.

A shooting scrape between Italians oc-
Cured at an early hour yesterday morn
ing up on the Hickory Valley railroad,
owned by Wheeler Il Dusenbury. The
encounter took place near the end of the
road, about II miles above Endeavor, in
Warren county. The victim is named
Fortunate Chirisno, and the asssilant IS
Frank Vonelli, both sons of Italy. CHR
iano has been employed as track wake er
on the road for several months, and yes
terday morning shortly after six o'clock
was walking up the track, accompanied
by two countrymen whose names we
could not learn. When near the end of
their route man stepped from ambush
and, after ordering the others to stand
aside, addressed himslf to Chirisno,
whom he said he had come to kill, &C.
cusing him of deserving his wife in the
old country and leaving her destitute, the
wife being sister of Vonelli. He OPT ne
fire on his victim with a 3S calibre re-
volver, putting a bullet through each
forearm and two in the back, and then
attacked him with dirk or stiletto, in
flicting several wounds, the most serious
being deep cash in the hip. Believing
he had fixed his man, Vonelli took to the
woods and soon disappeared in the dense
forest. Nothing has been heard from him
since, and probably no effort will be
made to apprehend him. One of the
other two men got in the track of the
fusilade and bullet just grszed the end
of his nose.
Chiriano was brought to the station at
West Hickory and taken to the Oil City
hospital, where an examination OF his
wounds disclosed the fact that none was
serious, and probably three or four weeks
will see him out again.
1t appears that the Chiriano has four or
five brothers, and these drew lots to de-
termine which should go on the bloody
errand of revenge, the lot falling to
Frank. He said he had been hunting his
victim for about three months.

Unpatented Idea for Bed-Warmer.

One Of our high school students
bids fair to be a second Edison,
judging from aboriginal experiment
which he pulled off the past week.
His finite mind conceived the idea
Of warming the cold sheets of his
bed by putting . Lighted electric
bulb with flexible connections under
the bed clothes, That the warming
was success was discovered some
minutes after the light was put to
bed, the students chum came in and
found the bedding on fire, the little
innocent bulb having scorched hole
through all the bedding down to the
mattress. The chum used a pitcher
of water on the bed and did not call
out the fire department. Some time
when Mrs. Jones isn't looking, our
budding genius can bring retired
tomato can to wire around the bulb
in the way Of a transformer and fire
protector. No charge for the sug-
gestion.

Mrs. Chas. VIM received a tele-
gram last Saturday, informing her
Of the death Of her mother, Mrs. w.
R. Houck. on the morning of that
day. at their nome in Kingfsher,
Oklahoma. Mrs. Houck has been

winter with her mother in Oklahoma.
Mrs. Houck was nearly rs years old,

gentle kindness and consistent
Christian character. The Houcks
lived for many years, up to about
twelve years ago, on the farm east

AUTO DRIVER
ISrARRESTED
Robert Leonard who Was In
Auto When Hagen Was
Killed, On Trial.

Yesterday Sheriff Schueller placed
Robert Leonard of Belview under
arrest upon charge of manslaugh-
ter, the arrest growing out of the
fatal accident in which Wilhelm
Hagen was the victim and Leonard
the chauffer in charge of the auto
mobile in which Hagen rode to his
death last month when the machine
ran into ditch and overturned.
The complaint was made by A. c.
Grannis, father of Mrs. Hagen and
as her representative. The COM
plant charges that Mr.. Leonard in
his capacity of chauffeur, "willfully,
wrongfully, unlawfully with Gull
pable negligence" drove his convey
ance "recklessly at great and dan
gerous speed" and in excess of the
maximum speed allowed by law, and
that in consequence of such reckless
driving, his machine ran off the
grade and caused the death of Mr..
Hagen.
The sheriff appeared with his pris-
oner before Judge Laudon, Senator
Clague representing Leonard as
counsel. The prisoner is now in con-
finement pending arrangements fol
his release on bail until the time SET
by Judge Laudon for his examina
ton, which will be next Tuesday

Kings business demands haste. as
well as diligence"

We assume that the Wood Lake
News has been misled by some base
less rumor when it publishes the
statement that an epidemic of scar
let fever prevails at Redwood Falls
and that three children in one fami-
ly died with the disease. With the
exception that there has not been
even one death here from scarlet
fever and that nothing like an cpl
demic has existed, the report is cor
rect. There has been scarlet fever
in the Mason family and a case in
the country affecting a pupil in the
seventh grade. This grade YVES
closed for a short time as pre-
cautionary measure, but physicians
and parents have been on the watch
for new cases, and at this writing
the danger of an epidemic is very
remote. A dozen towns in this part
of the state have had a number OF
cases each, Springfield having had
two or more deaths. but the Advance
reports no epidemic there at this
time, although similar stories to the
one above referred to had been free
ly circulated, as the Advance init
mates, in the interest of rival towns
We do not believe that our Wooc
Lake contemporary is actuated by
any such motives, but would ask il
all fairness to rectify its uninten
tional misstatement.

RATHER COY
City Offices Hunting Men and
Likely to Rope Live Ones
on a Live Issue.

How about the city election? is a
question frequently heard these
days. but so far we haven't heard
the answer, and do not expect to
hear satisfactory one until the
first Tuesday in January. And
there is the liability that even then
the answer will not be wholly salts
factory to everybody. There is a
pretty general agreement that there
will be two tickets in the field and
that the one important issue will be,
whether or not Redwood Falls will
go back to the old way of raising
revenue by licensing saloons. The
Gazette is materially opposed to
any such backward step, and will
do all in its power to maintain the
present policy, which can only be
done by electing two aldermen or a
mayor and one alderman against the
licensed saloon.
TO the average business man the
question is not so much moral as a
business one, and every man or wo-
man who buys things in Redwood
Falls can to some extent influence
the business men with whom they
deal by frankly stating their senti-
ments about licensing saloons, To
our mind, this will be good deal
more practical and effective than
signing petitions, as has been done
in past campaigns, The business
man wants to advance his business
interests and boost the town, and
scarcely any of them have any use
Tor saloon on their own account.
Parents who have children to send
to our high school should be heard
IN this matter and we believe our
business men will not ignore any de-
cided sentiment on the part of the
people who make their business a
success. Money talks. and men who
have made millions from selling
booze are making their dollars talk
in no uncertain way nowadays.

MethOdists Ma Ike Good Showing.

According to statistics just pub

1t must not be supposed that the

on this record, for they frankly con-
fess that many good things which
they had planned on at the COM

still undone. The constant emigra-

Beginning early in January, Man
ager A. F. Brown, who has estab-

at Mortified, Faribault, Albert Lea

open opportunities in this city for

cial law, according to the most adj

DDS. The fact that he has built up
successful school at New Ulm In the
course of few months is a warrant
for the assurance that he will make
a successful beginning here. Mr.,
Brown has become impressed with
the large territory within a radius
of twenty-five miles or more of this
place now without the kind of school
which he is instituting here. and is
so certain of the demand that he is
asking no pledges whatever of Red
wood Falls citizens preliminary to
opening his school here.
At meeting of the Commercial
club last night the above facts were
brought out when Mr.. Brown was
invited to state his position before a
large turnout of business men. Mr..
Brown explained Some of his meth

stated that nearly a dozen of his
