HUNTER Accidentally SHOT
L. LARSON OF BELLE PRAIRIE M
JURED WHEN GUN WAS AC-
CIDENTAI.LY DISCHARGED

Louis Larson of Belle Prairie, aged
20 years, was seriously injured Mon
day afternoon while out hunting, when
his shot gun was accidentally dis
charged. Part Of the young mans
right hand and forearm was shot away
and several shot entered his back. He
was taken to the Hall hospital here
where he is now receiving treatment.
The young man was riding in a sled
when the accident occurred, and was
holding the gun by the muzzle, the
butt end lying in the bottom Of the
sled. 1t is thought that the gun was
discharged by the trigger striking
something in the sled. The arm was
badly mangled and a number OF shot
entered his back near the kidneys.
The attending doctor hopes to save
the hand so that he may regain at
least partial use Of it. Most Of the
shot have been removed from the back
and unless the kidneys are affected it
is thought that the young man will
fully recover.

state.
In the way Of amusements and en-
tertainment for the prisoners, little in
the uplift and educational way is over
looked. The new prison has an audi.
torium that would be credit to
city of $4,000 or more Inhabitants.
Here are held Chautauaua meetings,
moving pictures twice week, and 9th
er entertainments. Weather permit
ting, baseball games in season are held
every Saturday afternoon. All prison
ers who observe the rules are allowed
these privileges.
From 1878 up to 1901, when the.
board of control was established, the
Saltwater prison showed deficit. Only
two years are recorded as showing any
earnings. Last year the earnings over
expenses were $4,000 per man. The
total earnings were $429.12 per man
and in 1900, the year before the board
took charge, only $200.35 per man.
Fodd then cost the state 1886 per
man, while now it is 5000.
To transients the new Minnesota
J prison is one of the big attractions. It
lis visited by from 100 to; 900 persons
/ daily, all Of whom pay q small fee for
i the privilege. Out Of this the expenses
Of the library are met. s.ls .5 35.7#

THAT POST0Ff|CE BUILDING
CONG. LINDBERGH STATES THAT
CONSTRUCTION WILL LIKELY
BE STARTED THIS YEAR
Washington, D. c., Feb. 9, 1915.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 9, 1915
The Herald, Little Falls, Mimi.
Gentlemen: [ have received letters
from different parties regarding the
new postoffce to be built in Little
Falls. Inasmuch as people at Little
are interested in knowing about this
matter, l think it is we'll to give you
the. facts in the matter.
All of these building projects go on
under regular rules, so far as any par
ticular postoffice is concerned. You
will get the idea from the following
eases: The building at Brainerd was
authorized May 80, 1908, the building
at Moorhead was authorized January
25, 1910, the buildings at Little Falls,
Anoka and Bemidji were authorized
March 4, 1913. The Brainerd postoffice
being the first authorized, was COM
pleted less than two years ago. The
Moorhead office, I am informed, is now
practically completed. At Little Falls
and Anoka, sites have been secured.
At Bemidji there has been some con-
tention about the location and the de-
partment has not yet made decision
and therefore has not purchased a site.
This is liable to be attended to very
soon. AS soon as sites are selected
and paid for a number is given to tn
particular office and the next thing
that follows is to set aside a sum Of
money for beginning the construction Il.
The plans for the offices authorized in
1913 have not yet been completed, but
they are supposed to be completed by
July l, next AS the sites have been
secured in Little Falls and Anoka,
there is bill now pending before con
gress providing for the setting aside
Of $4,000 each for the beginning of
the construction. In fact this provi
sion passed through the committee of
the whole house yesterday and will
be voted upon in the house this week
and then passed on to the senate. 1t
is quite certain that the provisions will
remain in the bill, which is the Sur dry
Civil bill. Ordinarily the construction
could he expected some time in July
Whether it will be started 5hen or not
I cannot say, because the treasury is
continually running behind in funds
However, it is my opinion that work
| will be started some time this yea!
and after it is started sums will Ee
set aside from time to time until TIE
work is completed. No buildings have
been commenced that were started rs
! late as 1913 with the exception OF
those cases which are known as amerg
ency cases, which do not usually ap
ply to new buildings but to repairs
and additions made to old ones.
Sincerely,
l. ~...... -.- ga. sLindbergh.

FOREIGN POSTAGE RATES IN
CREASED

The boat rate Of cents per ounce
for first class mail going from America
to Germany has been suspended and
the union rate Of 5 cents for the first
ounce and cents for each additional
ounce is now in effect. If the proper
postage is not attached bv the sender
of the mail it will be forwarded but
the receiver must pay double the
amount of the deficit.
The reason for the increase is that
there are now no direct boats to Ger.
many and mails must be taken to
their destination in a roundabout way

own to look after,' she said, or pos
sibly they think that by letting the
women members run things, harmony
would surely prevail.
Miss Clara F.. Baldwin, secretary OF
the state library commission was pres
ent and gave talk on "The Library
Of Today The libraries Of "the
day before yesterday were just a
! collection Of books for the wealthy,
she said. The libraries ''of yesterday
We're for all the people md efforts
were made to attract everyone to them
but that was not enough. "Today'
the libraries are not simply for the
purpose Of collecting books but to
adapt the collection to the readers and
to get the readers to come there. Sur
veys are nowadays being kept in many
libraries, through which it can be as
certained what benefit patrons derive
from them. If the results from the
use of the library by natron are not
good it can be found out and an effort
is at once made to learn the reason.
Miss Baldwin stated that the public
library should have such literature as
the school library does not furnish, but
there should be no Implications Of good
sets. She pointed out the need Of a
telephone at the library, explaining
that great deal Of time would be
saved the patron and the librarian if
the patron could telephone his or her
wants and the librarian could have the
material ready.
She urged that more books be placed
on the shelves of the local library
stating that at the present time there
are but Is books for everv 100 people
in Morrison county. A county library
is also needed, she said, as the rural
population is very large and there is
not a single public library in the coun
ty, outside Of Little Falls.
Mrs. l.. D. Brown, last on the pro
gram, spoke on the possibilities Of the
local library. She suggested that the
children's room in the library be NOV
ed downstairs, thereby giving another
room for reference purposes. The sec
ond story should be fixed up and coult
be made into rest room or readins
club or. a museum. She also made 6
number of other valuable suggestions.
Mrs. Blanchard, librarian, read let
ter from Mrs. C. A. Weyerhaeuser, s
member of the board, who is spending
the winter in California, in which sht
sent greetings to the library board
and to those who gathered to celebrate
the tenth anniversary. She said tha
from what she had seen Of che libraries
in California, they did not compar'
with those in Minnesota.
After the program the people par
took of a splendid lunch, served il
the club rooms by the ladies Of tn
board, and this was followed by
social time. Miss Elaine Ruth enter
n tained the gathering with several vo
cal selections which were highly pleas
ing. Her sister, Miss Elvira Ruth, &C
companied her on the piano. MAS
i Noella Duclos rendered a number Q
4 excellent selections on the piano.
