on Sunday.

weeks absence.

''Stutz'' and visited Mr.. B. C. Wilson
and family.
1t is uncertain whether Mr.. E. L.
Philip will be able to speak in Edger-

the larger cities is so great that the
state central committee may send him
elsewhere for the final dates of the
campaign.

A course luncheon followed the literary
and musical program, making the oc-
casion one of distinct enjoyment.
What might have been serious
shooting accident was averted by the
narrowest margin Sunday morning on
the Edw. Haugen (the old Atwood)
farm in Albion. A party of boys from
8 to 10 years'old were handling revolv-
ers when 20 in. the hands of Rush
Touton was accidentally discharged,
the bullet striking button on the cap
of year old Lloyd Haugen. The but
ton doubtless diverted the bullet but it
cut neat channel across the scalp.
Had the bullet struck fraction of an
inch lower the result probably who'd
have been fatal The boy was badly
stunned while the flow of blood fright
ened his companions so for a time they
could hardly tell just how it did hap
pen. Mr.. Haugen brought the boy to
DR.. Morrison's office for treatment,
who thinks the wound only super
! ficiai one. The accident only shows
what dangerous weapons revolvers are
in the hands of youngsters.
The general verdict of those who
| listened to the International operate
Co., which supplied the first number OF
L
iestic theater Monday evening, is that
an Edgerton audience were never be-
fore favored with higher class enter
tainment. The program possibly might
be composed of too much classical
music to please a mixed audience, but
| thew gave us a rare treat in selections
from the best of the modern popular
operas, something but few of those
present had been privileged to hear.
The members of the company show re-
markably we'll trained voices and their
solos, duets and quartettes were finely
rendered, and the best of it was they
responded willingly to every encore.
Their accompanist, Miss Margaret Day,
was an exceptionally fine artist. The
soprano and baritone, the McKinnies,
have been connected with the Savage
| operate Co. and others formerly con-
nected with musical circles. If the re-
naming numbers of the course take
rank with that of Monday evening,
there will be no reason for complaint
of the series selected by the lecture
course committee.
