Damage Suit Threatened

Unless the Messrs. Schaller and

roads. AS it is the township officers

ing from. almost everybody who are
compelled to travel by team or auto

Last Friday the Schaller & Hanson
threshing outfit became mired in the
narrow road near the school house
three miles south of town. The engine
sank into the roadside and almost
toppled over. It was impossible to
move it and the fires were permitted
to die. Monday morning a crew of
men were at work trying to excavate
the machine and travellers were COM
PEELED to drive far out into the fields
to get by because of the narrow grade.
The men at work were some of the
most expert linguists heard here for
many day. Everything from Bull
garian to Esperanto sfoated out upon
the foggy morning air. Neglect of
road repair is given as the cause of the
accident and the rig owners have been
advised to seek recovery for time and
money lost.

Everybody had a good time at

About 200 people, big and little,

Most everybody brought the coppers
just for the novelty of the thing. The
most anyone donated was u pennies
and from that the sums varied. The
lowest was one cent. The one-cent
person didn't have much fun but prob
ably got the most kisses.
The social program consisted OF
card, checkers, finch and parlo1
games. Dancing was excluded and
there were no attempts to introduce
even the most staid old-fashioned
steps. From 8 to IL the players found
plenty of excitement and then the
grand march with it's scramble fol-
partners was announced. Miss Olson
presided at the piano. The supper
was served by the members of the
Ladies' Club and eclipsed all previous

Spurned Lover Kills Girl

! Spurned by the 19-year-old waitress
with whom he had been infatuated
for several weeks, John Swendon,
aged so. retired bartender at Sank
Centre, shot and instantly killed
Della Benz at her home in Sank
Centre a few days ago. Then he
turned the revolver upon himself and
sent a bullet crashing through his
brain. G. w. Suckstorff, furniture
dealer in this city, knew both parties
and was shocked to learn of the
tragedy last week.
According to the information Mr..
Suckstorf has secured Swendon had
been paying attentions to the girl for
some time. They had appeared to-
gether in public and on several occa-
sions the girl had accompanied him to
social gatherings and the theatre.
On the day of the murder Swendon
had called at the girls home. There
were no witnesses to the tragedy but
it is believed the man pressed his suit,
demanding an early marriage, and
was denied. The sound of the shots
brought the girls relatives and they
found both dead. The girl bore an
excellent reputation while the man is
said to have been of a very quarrel
