FOOT NEARLY
SHOT OFF
YOUNG LAD DROPS LOADED GUN
AND BADLY INJURIES HIS
COMPANION

A boy eleven years old by the name
Of Roed, living with relatives . mile
northeast Of town, was badly injured
by the discharge Of . shotgun Sunday
afternoon. The charge from the gun
entered his left leg just above ths
ankle and shot away three inches Of
the larger bone and about IN inch Of
the smaller bone, almost severing the
foot. The boy who was injured was
only six feet from the muzzel Of the
gun and got the full force Of the load
Of shot.
It appears that another boy Of about
the same age was carrying the gun
with the hammers up, when he tripped
and fell, exploding the charge which
took effect in the Roed boys leg. DR..
Dochtrman was called and the in
jured lad was brought to the hospital.
The attending physician states that
it may not be necessary to remove the
foot - = result Of the injury, but that
the boy viii be crippled permanently.
The injured boy had been visiting
some time with relatives here. His
father arrived from Minnesota Mon
day.

NEW ELEVATOR
DOING BUSINESS
FARMERS ELEVATOR STARTED
BUYING GRAIN MONDAY
CAPACITY 10000 BUSHELS

The Farmers Elevator, which has
been under course Of construction for
the past few months, opened for busi-
ness Monday morning. The new ele-
vator is located across the street from
the Independent Elevator, near the
Great Northern tracks. A large
amount of grain has already been
brought in and more is being received
daily. Regular carload shipments will
be started Immediately.
The elevator is built of wood with,
heavy corrugated sheet steel covering
making very substantial building.
The capacity is 10000 bushels. A
gasoline engine furnishes the power
to operate the machinery, which is all
of the very best made for modern ele-
vators of this size. A spur track for
loading cars has been built in close to
the south side of the elevator. With
the exception of few minor details
the building is all completed, and these
few details will be completed within
this week. The cost Of the elevator
is approximately $4,000.
Fred Eckhert, is president of the
company, W. M. Wilde, Vice Presi-
dent and V. Bernard Secretary. E.
McDormant, will act as Grain buyer
for the company at the elevator.
Those connected with the new enter
prise say that the company has not
entered the field particularly as q
competitor Of other elevators, but
merely as a cooperative enterprise
among the farmers in order that they
may have the benefit Of the best prices
obtainable for their grain.

PASSED AWAY EARLY SUNDAY
MORNING AT ADVANCED
AGE OF "a YEARS

known to many in the city as Grandma
Gates, one Of the oldest residents in
this section and pioneer in Williams
county, passed away early Sunday
morning, October 18, at the advanced
age of "a years. She died at her

Mrs. Gates was the mother Of six
children, only two of whom are living.
One daughter lives in Anoka. Minn.,

those who endured the earlier hard
ships necessary for the present de-
velopmnt.
