First Frost Oct. S

The first killing frost SO far this
season visited Stevens county early
Tuesday morning when ice half an
inch thick formed in the low places.
Exposed water pipes were frozen in
Morris an many early risers had a
lively time thawing them out.
Corn fields we're hit in spots and
the crop of seed corn will be dimin-
ished to some extent. Tomatoes and
other late tender plants left uncov-
cred were hard hit.
The frost followed a heavy rain all
day Sunday which brought a high
wind from the northwest on Monday.
The wind died away during the early
hours Tuesday and the frost settled
in the low places. October is not
an unusual frost date in Minnesota,
being only one day earlier than the
average frost date given by the re-
cords kept for many years.

The fear of being buried alive al
ways has been, and is, so widespread
that the French Academy Of Science
some years ago offered a prize equal
to $500 for the discovery OF some
means by which even the inexperi'
enced might at once determine wheth-
err, ia a given case, death had ensued
or not. A physician obtained the
prize, He had observed the following
well-known signs; II the hand OF the
suspected dead person is held towards
n candle or other artificial light, with
the fingers extended and one touching
the other, and one looks through the
spaces between the fingers towards
the light, there appears a scarlet red
color where the fingers touch each
other, due to the blood still circulat'
ing; It shows itself through the tbs.
sues which have not yet %congested.

nomenon of scarlet spaces between
the fingers at once eases The most

AFOOT IN GERMANY
Belgian Makes Thrilling Escape
After Killing Guards.
Traverses Whole Rhine Country and
Reaches Switzerland and Italy
Poses as Deaf Mute-Rssdy
to Fight Again.

London.-Jules Liaudat, a twenty
~Gwo-yeRrold Belgian soldier, has Just
arrived at Nice after eiecting a dar-
ing escape from Germany. His jour
ney across the enemy's country into
Switzerland and Italy is one OF the
most striking stories that have come
to hand since the wal began.
At the time of the outbreak OF hos.
tilities Liaudat was doing his military
service in the Fifth Line regiment at
Antwerp. He took part In the fighting
around Aerschot, whence. after a
splendid resistance the Belgians were
Obliged to retire toward Malines, Later
the Germans bore down upon the pros
porous little town, famous for its lace
making trade, and It was during their
successful attack on that place that
Liaudat and some fifty OF his COM
rades became separated from the rest
of the Belgian forces and we're obliged
to give themselves up.
Sent the next day to Aix.la-C hapelle
the prisoners we're placed in a COM
pound formed of wooden planks with
a guard of FIVE men OF the landsturm.
The prisoners noticed that they
were left unguarded by the sentinels
for a few minutes each day while the
guards went to get the soup. On De-
cember l the Belgians lay in wait for
the return Of the sentinels at the en-.
trance to the compound.
AS one OF the Germans came back
with the customary caldron of soup
he was set upon and strangled. He
was able to utter q cry, however, and
his comrades came running to see
what was wrong. One after the other
they we're shot down by one Of the
BelBians, who had picked UP the re-
volver Of the strangled soldier.
Then began a wild dash for liberty
under the bullets OF a company Of
lGndsturm, brought to the scene by the
sounds OF the shots. The Belglans
ran In zigzags to avoid being hit. Al
most all OF them made toward the
Dutch frontier. Not so Liaudat, who
did not wish to be informed In Holland
until the end Of the war. Re had con.
ceived the more desperate plan Of
crossing Germany and reaching Italy.
To this holiness he probably yves his
life, az the landsturm men, feeling con.
hdent that he would be caught later.
hred only a few shots after him,
whereas in the opposite direction al.
most all the runaways were brought
down.
Once well on his way, Liaudat
gained in confidence and succeeded
in walking to Merestret without being
questioned. He went round the out.
skirts OF the town and on to Limburg,
where he found some old clothes in
an abandoned house. This allowed
him to discard his Belgian uniform,
now all tattered and torn. Thus dis
guised he continued his journey as a
