Two Miller Children Have Died and a
Third Is Seriously Ill.

From Tuesdays Daily
Jacob Miller and family, who moved
from Mankato to New Ulm two weeks
ago are sadly afflicted. The family
consisted of the parents and eight
children, but since leaving Mankato two
of the children have died and third
is seriously ill, while a fourth is all
ing. The younger children had the
measles when they left Mankato, and
a few days ago scarlet fever developed.
Last Saturday morning at two
O'Clock, Howard, aged twelve years.
died, and the funeral occurred at two
o'clock yesterday afternoon. Just as
the family returned from the funeral.
Frank, aged seven, died. Herbert.
aged five years, was very seriously sick
yesterday, and Marie, aged nine years,
came down with a sickness that it is
feared is the same as took the other
children. Two other children are at
home, and two are at Aberdeen, s.. ID.
The two latter were not called home
for fear that they might take the dis
ease
There has been no scarlet fever in
New Tim of late, it is said, neither
has there been any in Mankato, and
it is Il question where the children got
the germs, unless it started sporadT-
cally.
The family lived on South Broad
street during the past winter, and be-
fore that lived on farm in Nicollef
county. Mr.. Miller. who is a brother
of c., W. Miller, the West Mankato
ice man, has charge of the Chicago &
Northwestern round house at New
Ulm. They will have the sympathy of
their many friends in their sad afflc-
ton and the loss of their two bright
and promising children. All will pray
that the lives of the rest may be
spared.
| Mr.. and Mrs. c. w. Miller attended
the funeral yesterday, but the health
officials thought that they had better
not remain to. attend the second fun
eral, which will be strictly private
