ceive their Transportation from the state.
Other veterans must pay their railroad
fare, but will have no expenses to pay

Mary fell upon it. Immediately there
came a second terrified explosion in
the fiery reach of which stood Anna.
Willis and Mr. Rattenborg who were
thrown backward as the top of the
generator was torn violently off. In
the wake of the confusion hurried
and anxious examination revealed the
fact that the hands and faces of Mary

fortunate victim of the accident, es-
capped with hand scorched and hlistered.

from Audubon and brought relief to
the injured, whom we sincerely hope

A tragedy occurred in the prize ring
Mt Calgary. Canada, Saturday when
Luther McCarty, the American white
champion prize fighter, was counted
out In the first round and died eight
minutes later.
At once there will be demand that
prize lighting case because of this oe-
currence. But there is little occasion
for condemning this business on this
ON this score. Football and auto rae.
ing claim dozens of victims to every
one claimed by smuggling matches, no
matter how brutal The auto victim
has no chance when his car skids into
the grandstand. The football player
sometimes gets caught in rush having
the force OF a battering ram. He
comes out dead or injured for life.
The prize fighter is beaten into insensi-
bility by the blows of his opponent, hut
he usually survives and If he is temper
ate in other directions, lives to ripe old
age.
Prize fighting should be abolished,
not because McCarty was killed, but
because of its brutal and degrading in

| jaw somewhat akin to the kick of a
mule. His neck was dislocated. II APP

Melville Township School Picnic.

One Of the most successful school
picnics in many years was held at Mel
vile Center school last Friday The
following teachers and their pupils
participated: Misses Lillian Griffin,
Bessie Davis. Hazel Gates, Theresa
McGuire, Helen Clark and Anna Burk-
hardt. The program rendered was
most excellent and certaily showed
hard work on the part of both teachers
and pupils.
The dinner was feast ''fit for the
gods. This was where the mothers
ability in the culinary art was brilliant
ly shown, for it was grand dinner,
Such affairs should be held in every
township of the county and at time
when the fathers could also be present.
Such day is of far more value thar
any one day of school could possibly
be. Every township should have its
social centers where patrons, teachers
and pupils could meet for social uplift,
We hope at some time in the near
future to see well conducted lyceums,
contests, and such other recreative
amusemerlts in every neighborhood in
this county. Lets keep the best blood
ON the farms instead of sending IT, to
the city for physical and moral de-
generation.

Announcement Electrical

As we are entering upon our Light
and Power undertaking in Audubon
County. it seems proper TO outline at
this time, in measure, the policy we
hope to pursue in the future.
While it is our purpose to rebuild and
upbuild in the most thorough manner,
the lighting system in Audubon, Extra
and surrounding country, we realize,
and trust our friends and patrons will
also realize, that all features or phases
of this undertaking cannot be accom-
plished at once; but it Is our aim to
undertake the most essential features
at first, and to follow as
rapidly as possible with all others in
the order of their manifest Importance;
and, during this time we would ask for
the kindly forbearance of the people, as
we feel confident that it will not be
many months before our progress will
prove source of mutual satisfaction.
1t is our definite plan to establish a
twenty four service not later than May
lst. 1914, and earlier IL our progress in
completing the system, together with the
Extra lines, shall warrant doing so.
And, with the day service in view, we
shall rigidly abide by straight meter
basis as the only proper and equitable
method, which applies as truly 20 elect
ric lighting as weights and measures do
in grocery and dry goods lines We
shall, however, furnish meters of the
most reliable late type at absolute cost
TO our patrons. which in the ordinary
residence size will be about $500 each.
and while we prefer that each patron
shall own his own meter. we will assume
all cost of repairs or replacement. due
either TO wear, damage by lightning or
other natural causes, thus the customer
merely carries an Investment of about
81, which to the lightning company
would mean thousands. We hope TO
have all present patrons supplied with
meters not later. than July.
As to Rates, we are not prepared at
this time TO announce a definite rate,
as this will be somewhat affected by
our coal cost and plant efficiency, but
we can say that there will be amaterial
reduction to take effect as soon as all
patrons are supplied with meters, and
we feel safe in saying that the rate will
not amount to more than an average of
i2lcentsper Thousand watts or kilowatt
hour.
