From the Record:
We regret to note the death of Miss
Christiana Schirmer, at her home in
Salem, Oregon, last Thursday. A tele-
sram to her brothers and cousins in
this vicinity, Friday morning. brought
the sad news. Miss Schirmer had been
in poor health for a fear or more, We
understand, yet nothing serious was
looked for. No doubt the recent death
of her father brought about a change
III her malady for the worse. The sor-
rowing brothers and sisters have our
full sympathy.

Henry Trautmann wears the badge.
He also demolished two auto tires
Sunday. While adjusting one of them,
he was waiting for a missing bolt nut
to be brought to him. Seeing a bicycle
near him he thought he'd take a little
spin on that. He found the upholster-
ed seat and started to pedal when the
gear-chain snapped and he took a
header. The handle bar, which was
minus a wood overcoat, struck him on
the right side of his proboscis and cut
that organ into shoe strings. Now
Henry wears three yards of sheeting
and a bunch Of cotton batting on the
aforesaid blowoff, and he resembles
a walking exposition of the Maltese
cross.

From the Leader:
The electric line which is surveyed
between Marshall, Minnesota and
Brookings, is to pass through Bush
nell. w. B. Denhart informs us that
the survey passes within a mile of his
ranch southeast of here. A town will
probably be located somewhere in that
locality as it is about half way be
tween Bushnell and Ivanhoe. 1t looks
like the promoters of the line mean
business as they already have some
thing over twenty miles of steel out OF
Minneapolis and several miles more

Big Drove Of Geese,

The day Of the big turkey
drives may be a thing Of the past
but the day Of the big goose
drives is still in vogue in these
parts at least. Last Friday
many residents of this city wit
messed the scene Of a big goose
drive up through the streets Of
Shelbina. In all there were
about 500 geese and some 200
ducks in the flock. The birds
were driven from a corral i'm the
south part Of town up to the
poultry house of JIM Dean on
Walnut street where they were
cooped and sent to an eastern
market. This great flock OF
geese and ducks was quite a
curiosity to many of our people
Who had never witnessed a sim.
liar scene before Shelbina
