ARRESTED FOR ASSAULT.

A warrant was issued this morning
by Justice Donahue on the complaint
of John C. Gales of Albany for the
arrest of Andrew Won Helle, both of
Freeport, on the charge of assault.
Gales in appearing before the court
stated that yesterday afternoon he
was deciding an argument between
his son and playmate and setting
some doubt in the minds Of the two
lads, when Won Helle suddenly came
up behindhim and struck him severely
in the face. Gales claims that Won
Helle has no relation with the two
boys and was in no way interested in
the case. and believes that the slap,
as alleged was given out of "pure GUS
sedness" on the part of Won Helle.
The warrant has been turned over
to the sheriff and Won Helle will be
taken into custody and brought before
Justice Donahue for trial as soon as
is possible. st. Cloud Journal-Pres

SIXTH DISTRICTS POLITICAL
ACROBAT FILES FOR CON-.
GRESS WEDNESDAY.
GAN THE PEOPLE Be FOOLED?
ALLEGED PROGRESSIVE PRINCI-
PIES FORGOTTEN In sCRAM-
BILE FOR VOTES.

st. Paul, April Charles A. Lin.
berg, the acrobatic congressman from
the Sixth Minnesota District, is Re
publican.
At least in a sworn affidavit receiv-
ed this morning by Secretary Of State
Julius A. Schmahl, Lindbergh claims
that at the last election he supported
a majority of Republican candidates
for office.
While the people of the Sixth Dis
trict had been threatened with st.
Vitus dance ASA result of attempting
to follow the. vacillating attitude of
their congressman, unless he has per-
jured himself, he is republican for
the time being.
This in spite Of the fact that ever
since last election Charlie has claimed
to be a Progressive and accepted his
congressional committee assignments
as Progressive, and acted on the
Progressive Advisory Committee.
Having apparently arrived at the
conclusion that this line of attack will
not lead him anywhere, he swears he
is a Republican, and will attempt to
fool the voters of the District once
more.
Even Lindbergh's most ardent sup
porters must admit that he his tickle
ness makes him an inefficient I'M
desirable representative.
1t is common report about the cap
itol that Lindbergh will soon flood the
District with personal platform in
which he will show how impossible
it has been for him to accomplish any
thing because all the other members
in all parties are opposed to him and
his vagaries.
Incidentally, this platform may be
introduced in congress as subject
for debate and made a part of the
Congressional Record so It can be
franked through the mails to save
postage.
1t is apparent that many of the
thinking voters of the Sixth District
have tired of being misrepresented by
question mark, and will put him
in the "lame duck" class after the
next election.

AS announced in the Herald last

favoring a monster Fourth of July
celebration to be held in this city this
year, and asked that the Commercial
Club cooperate with them.
Vice President Cooper called spec
ial meeting of the Club for Monday
evening to consider the matter. The
meeting was well attended by good
ly number of business men and the
unanimous sentiment appeared to be
in favor of entertaining the farmers
and friends from other towns this

year in a monstrous celebration.
The Herald editor understands that
the events of this sort in this city
in past years have been the best that
ample means and hard and enthusi-
astic work could provide. The senti-
ment expressed Monday evening was
that this years celebration should ex-
eel any of the predecessors.
A cracker-jack ball game between
two strong outside teams for a iber-
al purse and a speed program at the
fair grounds are some of the enter
tainment features under considera-
tion.
A finance committee consisting Of
A. F. Strebel, Geo. Fish, E. A. Rich
ards, Ed. Hansen and Gunther Hitler
I'D was appointed to solicit funds and
report at the next regular meeting of
the club. At this meeting it is expec-
ted that something of definite pro-
gram will be mapped out and strong
committees appointed to carry out the
wishes of the club.
It may be a trife early perhaps to
talk Fourth of July but Sank Centre
business men are getting into the
game in due season in order that
neighboring cities and villages may
make their plans to celebrate with us.

BOY BADLY WOUNDED
Royalton Young Man Will Die as Re-
suit of Carless Handling of Re-
volver by Another.

Royalton, April 18.-An accident
which will undoubtedly terminate IA
tally, occurred Monday evening at the
home of Frank Krystosek, Az miles
east of town, when his 18-year old son
Chas., was shot through the abdomen
by revolver in the hands of friend,
Joseph Schlichting. The boys are
said to have been handling the revolt
yer, which belonged to one of the Kry-
stosek boys and which was thought
not to be loaded, and while so doing
was discharged, the ball entering
young Krystosek's abdomen and pas
sing through the body, perforating
the intestines eighteen times and also
passing through the gall bladder. DR..
Watson was called Immediately and
as he saw that the case was most
critical one, the injured youth was
rushed in an automobile to the hos
pital at Little Falls where he was at
once operated upon by DR.. Watson
and three other physicians as it was
seen that the only possible hope Of
saving his life and that was a faint
one-lay in an operation. He came
through it alright and was resting
easily afterward, although there was
but little hope of his ultimate recov-
cry. The accident is a most deplor-
able one and should be a lesson to
those using firearms of any kind. !.
Later-As we 60 to press we learn
that the boy succumbed from the eff
fects of the accident on Tuesday.
