LAKE CLAIMS A LIFE
Andrew Young of Oxlip Loses Life in
Blue Lake, Isanti County, on
Sunday While Bathing.
Hany People on Shore See Him Dis
appear and Attempt to Res. ~
cue Him Proves Futile. -.--

a sad accident occurred at Blue
lake, about IL miles southeast of
princeton in Isanti county, Sunday
afternoon whereby young, unmar-
rled man, Andrew Young of Oxlip,
lost his life by drowning. A party
OF farmers and their families from
the vicinity Of Oxlip were picnicking
at Bartz' point on the lake and were
having a pleasant time. The young
people especially were ENJOYING
themselves. About 3 p. m.
it seems that Young entered a
boat and rowed out upon the lake
some 300 yards, where he disrobed
ana dlved into the water from the
skill. Many people were gathered
upon the shore at the time and saw
Young take the header. They anx-
lously. watched for his appearance
upon the surface, thinking he would
return to the boat, but when he
came up he. called for help and i'm
mediately sank again. A man put
OF in skitf to the rescue, but when
he reached the spot where Young
had gone down it was too late to be
OF any assistance. The young man
was a good swimmer and he must
have been seized with cramps. The
lake was about 80 feet deep where he
disappeared.
Right around the point, about 400
yards distant, a party of Princeton
people were encamped and among
them were two excellent swimmers,
but they knew nothing of the fatal
ity until several hours later. A
large number of people from Oxlip
and in the vicinity of the lake
searched for the body Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday forenoon but
without success.
Deceased was a stone mason by
trade and had made his home with
Erick Staines. He had worked
around Ox1ip and Isanti for the past
three years. He was about 30 years
Of age, Of sociable disposition and
was we'll liked by his acquaintance,
all of whom regret his untimely
death.

Miss Clara Foley of St. Paul has

who was elected last spring to sue
coed Miss Andrews. -.
According to regulation passed by
the school board last year tuition
must be paid in advance, by the
term. This year the same regulation
will be enforced. The tuition in all
grades below the high school is five
dollars for the fall term of four
months. Parents who are nonresi-
dents, having children to attend,
should bear this in mind as no non
resident will be enrolled until tut
ton has been paid. The tuition in
this district is less than in many
and in fact less than the actual. cost
to the taxpayers of the district.
Tuition is payable to the superinten-
dent and the money should be
| brought to the high school office.
According to the compulsory edu-
cation law all children between the
ages of s and 16 are required to at
tend school during the entire time
school is in session. Parents are ex-
pected to assist in enforcing this
law. Application for written per-
mits to keep children out of school
should be made either to the super
intendent or to the clerk, J. J..
Skahen, and in no case should they
be kept from school before securing
these written permits.
AS every teacher knows, it is very
important that pupils should enter
at the beginning Of the term, like
wise they ought to be regular in at
tendance.

FIRST COMMUNION.
Thirty Two Children Partake of Sacra
ment at Catholic Church.

ST. Edwards church was too
small last Sunday morning to accom-
modate the large crowd that had
come from far and near-many COM
ing 10 and II miles-to witness the
solemn celebration of first holy COM
munion of children and to share the
joy Of these little ones upon whom
heaven poured it's richest gift. The
sacred edifice, decked out in flowers
and evergreens, presented scene of
joy and welcome to the 30 happy
children who had for weeks diligent-
ly prepared themselves to approach
worthily the table of the Lord.
The services began with the pro-
'cession of the children from the
parish house.: through the crowded
church, into the sanctuary, led by
four White-robed little children,
Ernest Payette and Clarence Jesmer
for the boys and Eileen Kaliher and
Ruth Pennison for the girls, repre-
senting the guardian angel of each
one, and all carrying candles. They
were followed by the pastor, Father
Willenbrink, and the mass servers,
into the sanctuary, where solemn
profession of faith was made, they
consecrating their lives to their Lord
and Savior. Then followed high
mass with sermon, preached from
the text of St. John VI-59: 'This
is the bread that came down from
heaven. Not as your fathers did eat
mamma and are dead. He that eateth
this bread shall live forever.' At
holy communion the first communi-
cants were led two by two, by their
guardian angels to the foot of the
altar, where they reverently partook
Of the heavenly mama and then re-
turned to their seats. During this
period the choir rendered some very
appropriate hymns.
In the afternoon at 2:3O there was
rosary devotion, litany, sermon on
the scapular sodality and enrolment
into the same, followed by benedic-
tion with the blessed sacrament.
The following received solemn COM
munion:
John Dugan, Glen Leifert, Oliver
Burke, John Zebarth, Ed Cannon,

Kuhn, Francis Quinlan, Ed Dejarlais,

 The soil and climate of the Fuerte valley are unsurpassed any where.
 An agricultural school, projected and conducted on modern lines, and supported by the government, with private aid, is promised of establishment at the town in the near future.
 Neither by lease nor purchase will Orientals be permitted to ac- quire any lot, nor part thereof, in the new city.
 Several other industries which have obtained concessions intend locating at the new town of Sufragio.
 Messrs. Wilcox and Schwob ex- press themselves as gratified in the extreme by the courtesy and assist ance given them by the governor -ot Sinaloa, Don Felipe Riveros, and other state officials, in securing the valuable concession they have acquired, and the favorable terms granted therein. In their desire to aid in establishing and bringing into the state new and important industries the governor and state officials of Sinaloa have shown themselves truly progressive.

strolled into a cheap restaurant
and ordered a dinner. They were

In few minutes the somewhat

an airy flourish, deposited before

HE KNEW WHICH =
Dull and gray was the after
noon. Slowly, with reluctant
footsteps, Walter William made
his way toward the Sunday
school. If the truth be told in one
fell swoop, he was not a lover of
Sunday school, and, were it not
for parental compulsion, would
easily have found some other way
of congenially passing the time.
And so often happens when one
is down in the dumps, another
bitter blow was in store for Wal
ter William. He had two beauti-
full new pennies, one for the Sun
day school, and its brother for the,
purpose of buying sweets, or
some similar delicacy.
Unhappily, he lost one of the
bright new coins, and IN due time
reported the event at the ma
ternal headquarters,
"But, Walter, which of the two
pennies did you loser"
Back came the reply, like a rife
bullet:
ooh, the Sunday school one,
mother, of courseP

ADA COUNTY WILL VOTE
ON LOCAL OPTION QUESTION

The board Of county commissioners
of Ada county has ordered local
option election to be held on We'd
nesday, June 10.
A petition asking the board to call
an election was presented to the
board several weeks ago but the men,
bers refused to consider it, claiming
that many of the names on the docu-
ment were placed there months be-
fore it was brought before the county
dads. The action of the board was
appealed to the district court and
Judge Bryan reversed the commission
ers. 1t was thought that the case
would be taken to the supreme court
and the action of the board in calling
an election with out fighting the mat
ter further came as surprise.

Small Tax Delinquency.

0s1AaA AK A0uuQUeuCys
Lewiton. Idaho, May 2s.-Special-
Another good sign of the evident pro-
sperity with which the people of Nez
Perez county are now possessed lies
in the fact that the delinquent tax list
for the year 1911, which is being ad-
vertised at this time. amounts to only
SIC, $50. 10, a decrease of almost 50 per
cent since those of 1910 were listed.
In 1910 the total delinquency for
Nez Perez county amounted to ap-
proximately $4,000. At this time the
territory later given over to the for
nation of Lewis county was included
in that portion of the county now
constituting Lewis county carried only
about $4,000 of the $4,000 total de-
linquency, leaving Nee Perez county
proper with about$30 900 on the wrong
side of the peoples ledger. or about
$4,000 more than there is remaining
unpaid in taxes today.
Much of the delinquency listed this
year comes through the inability OF
the assessors to ascertain the real
owner of property located in various
sections of the county. this no doubt
being due to the fact that there are
many nonresident owners OF county
property, and the matter OF taxes has
been for some reason overlooked.
