Henry Petrie had birthday ami

called on him in the evening to help

Owing to the carelessness of the

fact had there been more of this slight

found the host retired.
The roads out to the Petrie farm are
not the best, so it was found neces-

APOLLO CLUB GIVES CONCERT
Fourth Number of Lecture Course
Makes Hit With Large Audience
Friday Evening

Redwood Falls had another treat
last Friday night when the Apollo
Concert Company gave program at
the Christian church.
An exceptionally large audience
greeted the company, showing that
the lecture course is constantly gain
ing in popularity. The listeners were
appreciative, and all numbers re-
ceived the applause they so well de-
served
Miss Coyla M. Spring as an imper-
senator of childhood in several short
poems, was clever and amusing. Her
longer reading from "The Sky Pilot"
showed art and finish.
The Apollophone was enjoyed, pro-
badly more because of its novelty than
any real harmony it produced. It is
a rather wonderful piece of musical
mechanism, and was very well played
upon by the entire company.

Augusta Jennings
Returns to Morgan
Young Woman Who Disappeared Dec.
10, Is Unable to Tell Where She
Has Spent Nine Weeks

When Miss Augusta Jennings dis
appeared from the hospital at New
Ulm on December 10 last, there was
considerable mystery connected with
the case. But her temperance at
the home of her brother, Henry Jen-
nings, who lives near Morgan, about
six o'clock February "a, adds another
chapter to the strange case of the
young lady. She was discovered in
dazed condition in the yard Of her
brothers home by members of the
family. She was partially dressed
and suffering greatly from the cold
She was at once taken into the house
and home remedies used to relieve
her pain. A physician was sent for
and she was given medical treat
ment. Her feet are badly frozen and
amputation may be necessary.
The young lady is unable to give
any account of herself. She told the
doctor and members of the family
that she had no idea when she left
New Ulm, and stranger still she can
give no account of her wanderings
since her disappearance from New
Ulm. When she arrived at hel
brothers home she was wearing a
different dress than the one she wore
when she left New Ulm.
Miss Jennings is in a weakened
condition and it will be several days
before she will have regained hel
strength.
She has been taken to the hospita
at New Ulm so her feet may receive
proper medical attention.

OLD SETTLER AT REST
Henry Winter, Pioneer of Redwood
County, Passed Away Last
Thursday

Henry Winter, pioneer of Red
wood county, died at his home here
Thursday, February 81.
He was i'll only a week and Thurs
day morning was so far recovered as
to be able to eat breakfast with the
family. At ten o'clock he was taken
with bad coughing spell and suffered
intensely until the end came early in
the afternoon.
He was buried yesterday morning
from the Methodist church of which
he had been member thirty seven
years.
Henry Winter was born in Indiana
sixty eight years ago, and when he
was twelve years old made the jour
ney to Wabash county, Mimi, in an
ox-cart.
In 1868 he married Mary Hart and
they moved to Brown county where
they lived until coming to Redwood
twenty eight years ago.
Besides his widow, Mr.. Winter
leaves three children: Mrs. Jennie
Teas of New Mexico, Mrs. Lena Coyer
of Wisconsin and VIM. Winter of st.
Paul.
Mrs. Coyer and VIM Winter were
with their mother during her trouble,
but it was impossible for Mrs. Teas
to get here.

Upper House Is
Now Non-Pd artisan
Senate Passes Amendment to Election
Law Making Members of Legis-
lature of No Party
HOUSE TALKS OF SENDING 1T ON
Senate Grain Probe Develops Rather
Startling Facts-Second Choice
Feature Retained in Law
IBy Grove E. Wilson,

Party designation was wrapped a
way from candidates for the legisla-
ture.
That was the bold stroke of the
senate last week.
Long drawn out had been the fight
over the elections committee bill re-
vising the primary. Principally the
fight was against the second choice
feature of the bill.
Chung to Second Choice
Second choice, you see, more or less
fallen into disrepute since the last
election when less than ten per cent of
the voters made use Of this feature.\
Still the clause was chung to by SEN
ator Haycraft with rare tenacity and
he forced his point. Then it was that
the non-partisan feature for the legis-
lative candidates was sprung and went
through. Doubtless the friends of the
amendment expect the house to kill it
which will reopen the fight in the SEN
ate, but maybe the house will pass it.
What if it should?
Democrats Would Exult
Figure to yourself the joy in the
Democratic ranks. Had such a bill
been passed before the last election
Joe Keefe would have beaten Bendixen
800 votes at the November try-out. So
you can see how the Democrats would
feel.
After all there are good many
highly respectable people who feel
that non partisan legislature would
mt be such a bad thing. Maybe it
wouldn't, who knows? And really the
house may pass the senate bill and
then there you are.
What of County Officers?
Certainly there is no reason for a
political set of county officers. If the
legislature is to be non-partisan they
should be.
Manahan Is Interested
Rather startling was the fact devel-
oped before the senate grain probe
committee Saturday. At Lotus sug-
gestion a resolution was taken into
the house calling for an investigation
of the chamber Of commerce and the
house committee headed by Bendixen
retained Manahan as attorney to do
the questioning for the committee.
Saturday it developed that Manahan is
an officer of the LOTUS concern, rival
institution and that therefore his work
could hardly be classed as unprejud-
| iced.
How Will They Explain 1t
Truly an embarrassing situation for
-Manahan etc. 1t is simply an
exemplifcation of the old adage that
he who plays with fire should wear as
bestos clothing. 1t is greatly feared
that neither of these gentlemen has
provided himself with the fire proof
garments.
Big Freight Fight Wednesday
The most important event of the
week will be the fight on the eastman
Distance tariff bill in the senate on

as to the relative strength of the con-
tending. factions. Senator eastman of
