Death Of Henry Minde,

Henry Minder, who for the
past eight or nine years has been
making his home at Glenburn,
North Dakota, passed away last
Saturday at Jamestown, where
he had been the past two weeks
under the care of physicians,
death resulting from paralysis.
Deceased was sick but short
time. About three weeks ago
John Minder went to Glenburn
and took him to specialists in the
twin cities for treatment, but
they reported his malady incur
able, stating that he might pos
sibly live a year or more, or
that the end might be near at
hand. So the message convey
ing the information that Henry
was dead was not altogether un-
expected by the family.
The remains were prepared
for burial and shipped here for
interment. The funeral took
place on Thursday afternoon, ,and
all that was mortal of HenryMin-
der was laid away in the Wilmot
cemetery.
Henry Minder was born in
Carver county, Minnesota, forty
years ago this month. At the
age of five he came to South Da-
kota with his parents, settling
on a homestead three miles
southeast of Wilmot, later mov-
ing to Wilmot, making this his
home until going to North Da-
kota. About ten years ago he
was married to Miss Lydia
Bretzke and to the union five
children have been born, four of
whom are living.
He leaves to mourn his early
death his wife and four small
children; his father; four broth
ers, Andrew at Wilmot, John
at Sisseton, Louis at Webster,
Ed at Corona, and four sisters,
Mrs. Nils at Corona, Mrs Maude
Mann at Saul1 Centre, Mime
sofa; and Mrs. John Schelem
and Lola Minder of Wilmot.-
Wilmot Republican.

Gave Musical Recital
Promising Young Girl Pleases
Her Many Friends.

Miss Dorothy Brown, a pupil
of Mrs. VIM. Glasier, appeared
in piano recital at the New
Grand Friday evening, May 8. A
large number of invited guests
attended ard we're highly pleased
with Miss Browns playing. The
program was made up from Sc.
lections from the world s greatest
composers, and although Dor.
othy is only a child, she showed
a musical appreciation and a
skill in execution and technique
which might we'll be envied by
musicians of far more training
and experience. During the
course of the recital the little
lady was presented with a beau
tiful arm bouquet of red carna-
tions and ferns which some ad-
miring friend had sent forward
to the stage by an usher.

Carnegie Library
Has Advantages

Willmar, Mimi, Man Tells of Its
Value to His City.
r. e. Sonstegard, who takes a
live interest in matters which
are uplifting and of lasting ben
eft to the city, and has been Sec
retary of the local public library
ever since il was organized, eight
years ago, informs the Standard
that a $4,000 Carnegie library is
now a possibility for Sisseton.
To furnish a site and 81 600 a year
for the maintenance of the libra.
ry are the only requirements
asked by Carnegie. In his quest
for information along this line
Mr.. Sonstegard wrote to small
Minnesota city, and was given
the following facts:
Willmar, Mimi, May 4th, 1914.
Mr.. r. F. Sonstegard,
Sisseton, S. Oak.
Dear Sir:
wish to reply to your letter
of May End wherein you ask if
/ consider money spent for
maintaining a Carnegie library
we'll and profitably spent, that
l do most emphatically consider
it we'll and profitably spent.
There was considerable opposi-
tion to the proposition of estab-
fishing Carnegie library in our
town when it first came up about
ten years ago but some of those
who were opposed to this pro.
position then are now serving as
members of our present library
board and are our most enthu-
siastic supporters. Any after.
noon or evening you can step
into our library and find children,
whose parents are unable fl
nanicially to buy them books of
reference or even the magazines
and other books in which children
are not only interested from
a standpoint of entertainment
but from necessity to keep up
with their studies, saving to the
parents the purchase of these
books which they can use in the
library. When you consider
that the money required, say
100000 per year for the pur-
pose of maintaining a library, is
apportioned to each piece of pro.
perty in your city you will find
that it is so small that on piece
of property valued at 100000, if
your rate is not higher then ours,
it would not amount to the price
of one book per year and for this
extra assessment on a piece of
property valued at 100000 you
would have the use of hundreds
of books not only for yourself
but for each member of your
family ard so for each one in
your city. When it is sometimes
mentioned that we had opposi-
tlon in getting our library now, it
seems hard for one to convi nee
anyone that such opposition did
really exist. I haven't at hand the
figures showing the increase in
books issued from the library
but it is a steady growth and we
look upon our library as being
one of our most popular insti-
tutions.
If l can be of any further ser.
vice to you at any time in con-
nection with this matter, please
command me.
Yours truly,
D. N. Tallman.
