A LAMENTABLE. CASE.
Young Man ParOled from Fergus
Falls Secures Liquor and is Re-
turned to the Institution.

Monday morning of this week Gun.
der Jensen, operating saloon, corner
of Third and Oak streets, was brought
before Municipal Judge Diehl,
charged with selling intoxicating liq-
uors to young man recently paroled
from the Fergus Falls Hospital. LID
uor was largely responsible for the
young mans downfall in the first
place, and upon his return to the city
the saloon men were notified by Chief
of Police Fish to not allow him in
their place of business or furnish him
with intoxicants. They were also in
formed that he was a ward of the
state. In paroling him the physician
at the hospital stated that if he took
up the use of liquor again he would
soon be in as bad shape mentally as
ever. He was returned to Fergus
the first of the week. Jensen entered
a plea of guilty and was fined s75 and
costs by the Court. The saloon keeper
is quite severely criticised for his
action and it is just possible that the
city council may take a hand in the
matter, which may result in the re-
voking of the license granted to

BAND OF YOUNGSTERS
High School Boys and Other Young
Men Will Make Up Organization
for the City.

The city council held a special
meeting Tuesday afternoon to con-
slider a proposition of Rev. P. Schaub
to organize and teach a band Of
which will be made up of young men,
mostly high school boys and young
members of the defunct band willing
to enter the organization. The gen.
tleman asked that the instruments be
turned over, and that each young man
receiving an instrument be required
to give a receipt guaranteeing the
care of same. The council unanimous
ly voted to accept Mr.. Schaub's prop
osition and for his trouble he will re-
ceive the same amount paid the old
band, viz, $50 per month.
The Herald believes this is the
proper solution of the question. Mr..
Schaub is an experienced band leader
and is confident he can get the
younger generation interested in his
organization. A meeting of those in
terested will be held in the Agricul-
tural room of the public high school
building Friday afternoon at three
o'clock. The council will meet again
next Tuesday afternoon to close final
details with Mr.. Schaub.

BREAK EVEN AT MELROSE
ceive Little Rough Stuff-Mel-
rose Very Fast.

Melrose and Sank Centre divided
honors in double bill at the Melrosq
arena last Friday.
In a fast scrappy preliminary the
Sank Centre Seconds, composed Of
Sutton, L. Lyman, Allen, E. Pang-
burn took the measure of the Melrose
Seconds by 1928 score. 1t was any
bodys game right up to the final whis-
tie, the deciding point being made ir
the last minute Of play. Lyman and
Sutton, playing forward positions,
were responsible for most of the the
points made; Sutton with seven field
goals and Lyman with four field AMI
five free throws. Lee horned in with
one from the guard position. Meyers
and Cannon made five each for the
losers.
In the main event Melrose sent II
five men that for combined weight
and height cannot be matched by any
high school team in the state. 1t looks
from this distance as if Little Falls
will have to beat them if they expec:
to go to Mortified in March.
The first half was marred by the
rough work of the Melrose team, in
spite of numerous fouls called. The
visitors were smothered by the
weight of the home team and failed to
guard properly, losing the half by the
score 21-10. To show that the rough
stuff was deliberate policy, the Mel
rose men changed their tactics en-
tirely and during the second period Of
the game played as clean a contest as
anyone could wish. In this style of
play Sank Centre proved their equal
and each team collected eight field
goals and one free throw, making the
final score 1927.
The feature of the game was the
sharpshooting of Pangburn. Standing
side by side, his guard seemed to have
about yard on him in height AMI
about a ton in weight, but in the
second half Carroll twisted seven
clean field goals around him so fast
that he needed cash register to
keep count. Wadena plays here to-

course of time and discovered what

insist that they had a hard and fast
agreement with Mr.. Miller to pay him
21a per cent of the gross proceeds of
the sale. Two per cent, the Herald
understands, is the maximum usually
paid for this work, but Miller insist
ed that he must have 212 because of
the extra expense he would be under.
The Herald understands that the
amount due on the 21a per cent basis
was about $135.
Quite naturally they told their
troubles to Judge Diehl, and after a
conference with County Attorney All.

for the arrest of Miller, charging him

MOTHER MILL ACCIDENT
Trouble in the Engine Room Ir,pairs
Lighting Service Temporarily.
Repairs Coming by Express

The Central Minnesota Power &
Milling Company met with serious
accident in their engine room at one
o'clock Saturday morning, when the
crank shaft on the big 125 horse
power steam engine broke. The way
in which the accident turned out was
very lucky for all concerned as the
broken pieces simply dropped to the
floor instead of being thrown through
the air, and the piston in being re-
turned did not break through the cy-
Under head as is generally the case
in such accidents. Sometime ego it
was stated to the Herald that a break
of this kind would not tie up the cleo
trio current for any length of time,
and it did not, although the Second
ward of the city was without the cur
rent for good part of the day; the
First ward had continuous service.
The cutting out of the Second ware
was made necessary because of the
practice of the Home School for Girls
of pumping the water supply to last
them over Sunday on the Saturday
preceding. In order for the power to
be furnished them it was necessary to
cut out the Second ward where the
largest amount of the current is used.
The engine crew at the mill, together
with the millwright and mason
worked practically all day Saturday
on a change in the shafting that Mr..
Merryman had intended to make but
was still in doubt about until the ac-
cident occurred. Conditions, however,
were not in favor of the local plant
as the bookings carrying the new jack
shaft recently installed were not rig
idly enough supported to stand the
strain imposed upon them ard one
end of this shaft was bent so that
the power required to run it could not
be furnished by the water wheels. It
was found that concrete pillar must
be erected to carry each of these box
ings and one of these came in such a
place that it was necessary to change
line of betting and this in turn
meant that a new two-foot brick wall
must be built in one place before an
other section of the same wall could
be removed to clear the way for the
new belt line. A new boxing also had
to be placed in the engine room and
one of the large belts laced. The
crews worked hard and made the
changes in the shortest possible time
and when the new bookings are placed,
the new shafting in position and the
steam engine crank replaced, the
trouble will be over for some time
to come. It will at least if mechani-
cal engineering can foresta!l such
break-downs. Mr.. Merryman is go
ing to considerable expense in having
the repair parts sent by express fror.
