An Antj-Slanq Society.

The Lester Prairie News says an
anti slang society was organized at
Hutchinson recently. The president
Of the organization on taking the
chair, made the following acceptance
speech:
"Sure Mike. Gosh, girls, l am so
ratified in my cupola that | am real
ly short on CAB. We are certainly
hitting the high places and l never
tumbled to such posish before, but
when l give you the high ball I ex-
pect you to get there Eli, and whoop-
'er up for all that's out. l think am
up to snuff enough so that the flies
won't light on me while doing the
president stunt Of this society act
but l won't stand for monkey doodle
business from you gals while I'm run
ming this ranch. We ought to extend
an invite to the married ladies to gel
out of the wet and help us shoot this
slang business, it's getting to be
ferce." .> . .s 4

PLANS TO BUILD FEED BARN
Lars Halvorson of This City Con
sidering the Project of Erecting
a Large Feed Barn on
Fourth Street.

Lars Halvorson of this city is SER
iously considering the project of
erecting a large feed barn on the lot
adjoining his garage on the south.
He is figuring on building it Of cement
blocks, 39 by l40 feet. The ground
that he owns behind the garage would
be available space in connection with
his barn. If Mr.. Halvorson builds it
is his intention to make it sanitary
and up-to-date barn in every res
pect and credit to the city. There
is nothing else the city needs so bad
at the present time in addition to the
facilities we already have in that res
pect. Several times during the past
week the farmers have been unable
to find Accommodations in the barns
and with the cold weather coming on
the demand for stable room will be
greater than it has been. We hope
that Mr.. Halvorson will meet the en-
couragement that he needs to &C
ahead and carry out his plans.

PIG STORY OF FOR
TY YEARS AGO

Mr.. Peter Coli, of Sacred Heart
township in Renville county, was in
the city today visiting his oldtime
friend, Gov. A. E. Rice, and incident
ally called at the Tribune Office. Mr..
Coli used to trade at Willmar when
he first settled in Renville county for
ty years ago. There was then such
a rush of wheat at the elevators from
this great section Of the country that
the farmers could not always un-
load the same day that they arrived
to town. Mr.. Coli related an adven-
ture which occurred one night in
those long ago times. There were
about seventy-five teams that were
forced to lay over night because they
had been unable to get to the elevat-
or hopper. 1t happened that there
was drove of hogs that stayed
around the elevators and sleighs
looking for chance to steal their
feed from the farmers wheat sacks.
No one would admit that they owned
the hogs for the reason that they did
not wish to become responsible for
the mischief the hogs did to the far
mers. Mr.. Coils instincts acquired
during his army service while on for
aging expeditions came to the rescue
| Of the farmers that night, for after
a consultation Of the aggrieved ones,
one particular pig who was caught
red-handed ripping up sack of
wheat was laid low with a mighty
swoop over the back with rail. The
three hundred pounds of pork was
slowed away in one Of the wagons
next day and was taken out about
ten miles from Willmar and presented
to a farmer at whose place the Rem
vile farmers often times stopped on
their way to Willmar. From that
time on, no more pigs were allowed
to run at large at Willmar, at least
| not when Mr.. Coli was in town.

Halloween PARTY.

One of the most enjoyable events
of the season was the Halloween
party given at the Bonde hall last
Friday evening, the hostesses being
the Misses Florence and Hazel Ben
son. About 100 guests were present
and each guest was directed to the
cloak room by ghost at the head
Of the stairs. Another was met in
the hall way and pointed to the hall
door where two witches received
them. The witches required each
person to hold up their right hand,
which was tied in a paper bag. that
must be worn thruout the evening,
shaking hands with all present. The
rooms were very lastly decorated
with autumn leaves, black cats and
jack 'o-lanterns, the lights being
covered with black crepe paper,
making the appearance Of the room
dark and ghostly. A fortune teller,
a Spanish lady, was one Of the many
amusements, also ''Nuts to Crack"
contest. Halloween favors were
awarded for the five best answers.
A silvery moon game and many 9th
ers were played. The invitations
were very unique and clever. Delic-
ious refreshments were served, and
all departed for their homes at late
hour.

LOBECk NlIEETINGL LAST
NIGHT AROUSNG one

The Lobeck meeting last night at
the Willmar Opera House was well
attended. Being Halloween with its
many social events as well as the
fact that many mischief makers
were abroad, caused many peo-
pie to remain at home for fear of
damage to their property. The
weather was very cold and raw. New
ertheless, about 500 people turned
out. They were not disappointed.
The exercises opened with fine flute
solo by Captain Fristrup of the Sal
walton Army, accompanied by Miss
Ethel Reed Of the Ethel Reed School
of Music Of Willmar, which was
much appreciated by the audience.
Attorney r. W. Stanford presided
and introduced Mr.. Lobeck in neat
little speech. True to his old style,
Lobeck proceeded to discuss the
question Of clean politics without
gloves. Mr.. Lobeck is hard hitter
and his speech was thoroughly enjoy
ey by those present, most Of whom
would have gladly had him continue
for an hour or two more.
A collection Of about $25 was tax
en- up for the State Prohibition Com
mittee, and we understand Mr.. Lo-
beck received a number of private
pledges Of financial support for the
cause he represents, before he left
the city. He speaks at New London
tonight.

Arrested For Beating Wife.

Elias Eide Of St. Johns township,
was arrested last Monday on COM
plant of his wife, Bertha Eide, who
had been viciously assaulted by him
nearly a week before. He came home
on the Saturday night, Oct. 21, and
was seized with seemingly uncon-
trollable desire TO beat his wife. She
was torn and bruised all over her
body, and after she had crawled in
to bed he tried to strike her with a
chair. A wire in the room caught the
chair, and the children succeeded in
stopping further injury, so that the
wife was able to get out Of the house.
She has been staying with the neigh
bors ever since. She came to Will
mar last Saturday and made a COM
plant. The husband was charged
with assault in the second degree.
The accused man took the matter
coolly. He suggested that the matter
be dropped and divorce be granted.
Municipal Judge Muller took diff
ferent view Of the matter, however,
and bound the man over to the grand
jury. The bail was placed at $500.
Up to this writing Mr.. Eide has fail
ed to secure bondsmen.
It is not known whether or not Mr..
Eide was under the influence of u
quor at the time the destructive
frenzy struck him. He is known to
have kept supply Of liquor at his
home. The unfortunate couple has
four children. Two Of these are al
home near Pennock and two in q
state institution for children in Iowa
