HATT0N LOVE AFFAIR
ENDS IN DEATH
ELMER LOMMEN SHOOTS MISS
GRACE ERICKSON, THEN IN
FLlCTS FATAL INJURY TO HIM
SELF.

Elmer Lommen, aged 10, the adopt
ed son of Chas. Lommen, shot and
perhaps mortally wounded Miss Grace
Erickson, aged 18, the girl he loved,
then turned the revolver on himself,
inflicting wound from which he died
later. The tragedy occurred at the
Erick Smestad home Monday night,
where the young people had attended a
social gathering.
Lommen had been turned down by
the young woman whom he asked to
accompany home, and he stepped out
into the darkness and drew his gun.
As she stepped onto the porch he fired,
the bullet striking rib, which defect
ed its course, and it lodged near the
heart. AS she fell, Lommen shot him
self, the bullet passing near the heart.
The young people were given first
aid attention and rushed to the hospi-
tai at Northwood, where young Lom-
men soon died. The girl is still alive
but will probably die.
She is the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Albert Erickson.

SNAL[W00D INJURED
IN AUTO ACCIDENT:

While returning from a potato buy
ing trip into the country Wednesday
afternoon at o'clock, J. c. Small

accident that nearly cost him his life.

grade gave way under the weight, and
his car turned turtle twice. A potato
buyer who was riding with him jump
ed and avoided injury. Mr.. Small
wood could not get out of the car and
remained under the steering wheel
while he took his perilous plunge to
what seemed certain death. The car
fell up against tree the second time,
and saved Mr.. Smallwood from being
crushed to death. He was stunned for
a time, but came to his senses after be-
ing pulled from under the car. Had
the tree not stopped the machine, he
would have turned over and over
down another fifty foot incline.
The machine was badly wrecked.
The wind shield was broken, tenders
crushed and other damage done. The
gasoline ran out of the car but the
engine kept running until Mr.. Small
wood turned it off.
His left leg was crushed and bruis-
ed and his head cut slightly, but he is
able to hobble around with a cane to-
day. The driver of the wagon did not
turn to the right side Of the road as
Mr.. Smallwood attempted to pass him.
The car was running ten miles an hour
when the accident occurred.

The prairie fire southwest of Minot
Friday started in Tolgen township,
from a strawstack at the Ed Nelson
farm, which, according to reports, was
set on fire last January: 1t swept thru

lars damage. The farm house of P.
D. Peterson was burned and Jesse

even her shoes and hat. Mr.. Watson
was painfully burned fighting the fire.

out and fought the fire with plows and
teams. The horses became frightened
and the teams ran over both men with
the plows, bruising them badly. They
suffered painful burns.

LAWRENCE COEbEL
WEDS MISS L|NNER1z

One of the most beautiful and I'M
pressive marriage ceremonies IN the
history of St. Leo's parish, this city,
occurred Wednesday morning when
Miss Regina Linnertz, one OF Ward
countv's charming young ladies, was
io;ned in holy wedlock to Mr.. Law
renee M. Goebel, of Des Lacs. The
bride is the second daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Joseph Linnertz, pioneer res
idents of Ward county, and one OF the
most respected and prosperous taml-
lies, having located here some twenty
seven years ago, watching the coun-
try's growth and development with
that keen interest of prosperity and
good fellowship. The many friends as
sembled at St. Leo's to witness this
marriage service but tends to show
the unbounded esteem in which the en-
tire family is held.
Promptly at nine o'clock, to the
sweet strains of Lohengrin's wedding
professional, the bridal party entered
the sanctuary, where they were met
at the foot of the altar by Rev. Father
Raith, who with choice and impressive
words spoke upon the duties and OBJ
legations about to be assumed by each
contracting party, before receiving
their exchange of marriage VOWS. The
Nuptial Mass was then offered with
Father Raith as celebrant.
The bride was beautifully gowned
in white Crepe-de- Meteor gown with
Chiffon over drape and pearl trim
ming. She wore the conventional veil
of silk illusior, with wreath of orange
flowers and carried a shower boquet
of roses and lilies of the valley. She
was attended by her two sisters, Miss
Gertrude and Francisco Linnertz, who
were gowned in pale blue corian crepe
with Chiffon over dresses and flowers.
Mr.. Christopher w. Linnertz acted
as groomsman, together with Mr..

States RECORDS
WERE STOLEN
LIST OF ARTICLES SOLD AT
"AUCTION SALE DISAPPEARS
-RUMORS OF DIVISION OF THE
SPOILS.

Bismarck Tribune: Ugly rumors OF
q division of state property among
certain state officials and employees at
the capitol building have been going
the rounds for some time. -.
The Tribune has taken upon itself
the investigation of these rumors and
a full expose of the entire transaction
will appear in an early issue OF the
paper.
But the Tribune is handicapped at
the start because the records In this
transaction have entirely disappeared
and those whom one would naturally
20 to in order to obtain the records
say that the only itemized statement,
the one containing list of all prop
erty sold at the now famous auction
sale" of state property, was stolen
from the desk of Taylor o. Thompson,
state printer and document clerk, or
else was taken from that desk or in
some other manner disappeared or was
destroyed.
This list would either prove or dis
prove any and all of the charges
which have been made in connection
with this deal.
The Auction Sale.
All that the biennial report OF the
custodian has to say regarding this
auction or "rummage sale" is printed
here: -,
an 1913, you authorized me to hold
a "Rummage Sale" and dispose of, at
auction, a lot of discarded pieces OF
Office furniture, couches, lounges, old
rugs, lighting fixtures, and other fur
niture. From such sales I have re-
ceived and turned over to the state
treasurer $6O8.56."
Thompson Was Clerk.
Taylor o. Thompson was clerk OF
this sale and Jacob Reider, custodian
of state property, conducted the same.
Mr.. Thompson yesterday stated IN Ell
feet, as follows:
"I was clerk Of the rummage sale
and made list of all items sold, the
amount for which they sold and the
purchaser. I left this list in wire
basket on my desk, intending some
time to make a typewriter copy, tor
INV minutes. The list was in the bas-
ket for some time and then all at once
it disappeared. I don't know what
became Of it, whether I threw it away
unintentionally, or whether it dlsap-
reared in some other manner"
