SUES FOR BACK WAGES

Judge Diehl on Tuesday afternoon
heard testimony and arguments in the
suit of Gregor Schwarzbauer against
J. M. Miller in which the plaintiff
sought to recover 500 claimed to be
due his minor son, George, as wages
for services as farm hand performed
for Miller. Paul Ahles, county attof-
ney, represented the defendant and
w. F. Donohue of Melrose and L. L.

morning the court awarded the plain
tiff judgment for the 500 due and in
terest. According to the testimony
adduced, young Schwarzbauer hired
out to Miller fora period of nine
months at wages of $50 per month.
Last August young Schwarzbauer
quit the employ Of Miller and alleges
constant nagging and unkind treat
ment as the reason. During the five
months he had worked for Miller nc,
had received $50 in wages, which left
500 due. This sum Miller refused to-
pay, alleging that young Schwarz--
bauer had violated his contract AMI
quit his employ during the busiest;
season of the year. Because young
Schwarzbauer is minor it was neces-
sary for his father to bring the suit,

THEFT AT G. n. DEPOT
REFUSES ADVICE OF MOTHER

SUIT CASE WHEN APPRE.
HENDED BY POLICE

Albert Schackel of Alexandria, a
hayward youth not yet II years of
age, was arrested last Thursday
evening by the local police on the
charge of stealing suit case from
the Great Northern depot; confessed
the crime, was bound over to the
grand jury the following morning by
Judge Diehl and that afternoon taken
to the county Jail at st. Cloud.
The mother of the lad came down
from Alexandria Friday and a pathc-
tic scene ensued when the two met at
the depot as the young man was on
his way to jail. The mother could do
nothing financially to aid her son, she
announced. She had paid more than
$500 in the last six months to help the
lad out Of scrapes in which he had be-
come implicated and had depleted the
cash fund accumulated by her work as
seamstress. She did not ask that
her son be given into her custody on
a probationary sentence because she
said she could do nothing with him;
that all her entreaties that he be a.
good boy had gone unheeded.
The lad is all only child. His father
died recently. The family has a COM.
Portable home in Alexandria. The
youth admitted that his mother kept
him amply supplied with clothing and
spending money. Yet he insisted on
associating with young toughs and
getting into trouble,

FIRE DESTROYS JERKE HOME
Residence developed In Flames Be-
fore Blaze is DiscOvered-Fam-
lily Not At Home.

Fire early Wednesday morning to-
tally destroyed the home of Joseph
Jerke on Second street near Elm. Mr..
Jerke valued the frame dwelling at
$500 and contents at $500. He carried
$500 insurance on house and $500 on
contents. The blaze was so far adj
vanced when discovered and burned
so rapidly that nothing could be saw
ed even by those arriving first on the
scene. The flames were discovered
about 1890 o'clock when they burst
from a window on the second floor of
the home and lighted up the sky so
the reflection could be seen up town.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jerke and four children
were not at home. The fire depart
ment responded promptly, AL Dubeau
making the run with the fire truck in
splendid time despite the heavy roads,
but the roof of the house had caved
in when the fremen arrived and It
was apparent the house was doomed.
Two lines of hose were laid and the
flames quickly quenched but only a
shell was then left of the building.
The homes of Harry Wilcox and Otto
Folksted adjoined closely but the fire
department saved them from damage
except for a slight scorching of the
Folksted home. Mr.. Jerke can assign
no cause for the fire unless it originat-
ed from stove in which small fire
was left burning when he came up
town with his family about $3.50
o'clock to attend dance. The child
rem were left at-the home of friend
but for time there was considerable
excitement when neighbors stated
their belief that the four children
were in the burning building. At that
time the structure was a mass of
flames and rescue would have been
impossible if the children had been at
home.

LADIES SCORE SOCIAL SUCCESS
Leap Year Dance" Monday Evening
the Event of Years-The Belle
of the Ball

The history of successful social dan
cling functions in this city should date
from Monday evening, March 6, 1916,
which marked the Leap Year dance
given by the younger ladies of Sank
Centre. Seldom has the city hall ever
housed more brilliant, congenial and
lively crowd than that which gathered
there Monday evening. The male con-
tingent were delivered to the hall in
taxis by the fair sex, were nominated
throughout the evening by the ladies
for dancing partners, were treated to
frappe and the most excellent music
by the Symphony orchestra, were TAX
en- to supper, frisked back to the hall
until the small hours and safely de-
livered to their homes when the
enjoyable event ended. The beauti-
fully decorated hall was crowded to
capacity and those !. instrumental in
launching the affair set down a pre-
cedent for both men and women who
give dances to guide themselves by.
The mere men who were privileged
to attend this function were all pulled
up like pouter pigeons following the
function. Quite bit of rivalry exists
as to who was really the "belle of the
ball' on this occasion. The support
ers of the contending parties waxed
eloquently over the social virtues OF
their favorites. Things were assum-
ing a serious aspect. In order to set
tie the matter the Herald started q
quiet investigation and after all the
evidence was adduced it appears that
Charley Fiesler carries off the crown
by comfortable margin. His sylph-
like form, his graceful terpsichorear
efforts, his cherub-like smile, lovely
hair, and finally because he was COM
PEELED to limit the petitioners for his
favors to a half dance each before the
midnight hour arrived. Of course
there were other "dolls" but Charley
appears to have retained the edge at
the finish. The mere suggestion that
Mr.. Fiesler gave away box of candy
with each dance is Indignantly refut.
