But he stopped by the. woman's
cot, and himself shuddered at her
low, stricken moaning.
In the evening, the woman sud
denly came back to clear-con-
seriousness, and the knowledge
that her own end was near.
Then the ward inferno, with
the plain disgust showing in his
face, went to the waiting room
and little girl who had been
waiting long hours to see her
mother.
"I'll just give her five minutes"
said the inferno to the rr1atron in
charge of the girl.
Then he took the girl to the
woman's bedside, and left her
there.
The woman propped herself
up in bed.
There are many things |

she said. "But there is no time.
"Your mother is dying. She
is going to join-the angels. :"
The little girl burst into sobs.
She did not know very much
about her mother. She had been
brought up in a home where she
was not encouraged to think of
her mother. But the woman who
was dying had always brought
her nice presents when she came
to see her.

AS she spoke, the woman drew
a letter from beneath her pillow,
and handed it to the little girl.
The girl grasped it eagerly.
"Munmie always had a PRESENT.
The woman fell back on the bed,
choking, strangling, dying.
Kiss me-baby," she cried.

not my fault"
The inferno came and took the
weeping little girl away. 1t is

closer to her breast.

the letter across the table to his

BOOZE VICTIM FOUND
Dead Body of Scissors Grind
er Found In A Field
Near Wabasso.

Our Belview correspondent writes
that DR.. Aldrich, county coroner,
was called to Wabasso Saturday to
investigate the circumstances sur
rounding the death of man who
was found about half a mile from
that place. AS near as could be
learned, the man was Peter Weis, a
wandering scissors grinder, who was
last seen in Wabasso on the night of
Dec. 22d, 1910, on which evening he
started to go to the home of a farmer
southwest of town and was not seen
again until his body was found lying
on the plowed field Saturday after
noon. The exposed parts of the
body were quite badly decomposed,
otherwise the corpse was well pre-
served. His cap and one mltten
were lying beside the body and one
mitten was still on the hand.
He was man who drank great
deal and the supposition is that ne
was under the influence of liquor
when he started out on the night OF
his death, which was cold night.
He was very warmly clothed and
NAV have lain down and become
chilled and died from such exposure.
A small sum $500 in money was
found on his person. His scissors
grinding tools were found where ne
left them, in one of the local saloons
but nothing by which he could be
identified was found, except card
with the name, Peter Weis, Scissors
Grinder" on it. However, it was
learned from another party in Wa
basso that Peter Weis was his true
anatne and that he had no relatives
in this country, but had worked al
Victoria, Mimi, for man named
Mat. Timmers, and also had beer
around Chaska and New Ulm, MINI
The parties above referred to have
been communicated with, but al
this writing have not been hearc
from. The body was turned ovel
to John Amends, county commits
sioner, who will haye it buried a

one of Delhi's hustling, honest and
progressive farmers. is to be con-
graduated on his choice of life
partner.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mattson have al

Meeting with the Rural system.
President Stewart and Manager
Duncan represented the Rural COM
pany at popular meeting for or
ganization held at Lamberton last
week, and the above is the outcome.
All that remains to do is the work
ing out of the details by a capable
committee of Lamberton business
men appointed at the meeting.
Associated with the plan for the
new Lamberton exchange. will be
the extension by the Tri-State Co.,
of line connecting Springfield with
Lamberton and Walnut Grove,
which will be a decided gain for the
Rural company and its patrons, who
will then be able to ultimately reach
every town in this county from the
various rural exchanges.
Nothing better could be done by
the farmers and business men of
Redwood county than to own and
control all lines Of telephone COM
munication within this county, and
we believe that this will soon be
brought about.

DIED IN MONTANA.
Mrs. Sarah A. Bixby, Former Resident,
Buried Here Last Thursday.

Early last week w. P. Tenney of
this city received a telegram inform
ing him of the death of Mrs. Sarah
A. Bixby, resident of this city in
the seventies, when her husband,
DR.. N. Bixby, held position under
one OF the land office appointees.
The lady was one of the members of
the first Episcopal parish organized
in this city, and the older residents
still remember her and her daughter
Kate, whose body was brought here
quite a number of years ago, to rest
beside that of her father. The last
sad chapter in the family history
was the interment of the wife and
mother last Thursday, at which a
number of the older residents were
present, Rector A. A. Joss reading
the impressive burial service of the
church at the grave. Mr.. Tenney
was Informed that the cause of
death was hemorrhage of the brain,
the lady lingering nearly three weeks
after the attack.
The following clipping from the
Winnebago Enterprise gives a few
biographical particulars of interest:
MRS. Sarah S. Bixby died at Har-
vey. WASH, March 8, 1911. She was
a resident of this city many years
ago.
Mrs. Bixby was a sister of Mrs.
A. G. Dunn of Winnebago, zand was
the grandmother Of Miss Clara M.
Evans. She was the daughter of
the late Col. B. F. Smith, late col
onel of the Sd Minnesota volunteer
infantry of Civil War fame. She
was the widow Of DR.. Nahum Bixby,
late assistant surgeon of the same
regiment. Mrs. Bixby was a lady
Astounding in good works;Ga jealous
worker, a member of the W. R. G.,
and was ever ready with hand and
purse to do good to those around
her.
Mrs. Bixby was postmistress OF
the postoffice at Rapidan, this state,
for many years. She leaves on this
side of life's expression three sisters,
one brother and two grandchildren
besides a large number of friends.
Her remains were brought to Red
wood Falls and inferred beside her
husband and daughter in the beau.
tiful cemetery of that city. Truly,
a good woman has been transferred
from this earthly sphere to that
other and better life that is just
across the line."
