Play Is Successful

The Pine-Hill Ladies Aid, the
play staged at the Armory last
Friday evening was a very great
success both as a fun-maker and
"a money-maker. The ladies of
the Good Will Circle, who pro-
noted the production, have over
two hundred dollars, which will
be used for electric light fix
lures for the church auditorium
and for other church uses, as
a result of the evenings work.
Rev. B. Holt acting as coach
for the cast, is to be compli-
mented on the success of the
play. Mr.. Hollis tact and faith
fulness in working with the
cast, as we'll as the ability he
showed in his role of dramatic
director, are exceptional and ore
responsible, in very large de-
gree, for the evenings success.
The parts were splendidly well
taken by the various actors and
considerable good taste and skill
were used in costuming. On the
whole the play was one of the
most pleasant and profitable
things done in amateur thea
tricals here for some time.

Redwood County Commissioner
Contests Very Close And
Still Undecided
County Goes for Hughes, Hauser
And Bendixen; City for
Hughes by "a Votes

At ten o'clock today the cleo
ton of the next president and
of many of the other candidates
in yesterdays election was still
unsettled. The presidential corr
test was still undecided, Hughes
and Wilson running close. Two
electoral votes in majority were
conceded to President Wilson by
early morning. New York went
strong for Wilson as did also IL
inois, and several of the east
ern states. California, Indiana
and Kansas are still doubtful
and will have much to do in de-
Gliding the contest.
The three large cities in Min
.nesota went very strong for Will
son, but the country precincts
cut this down to a majority of
1000. In Redwood County
Hughes led by a majority of 342
votes in eighteen precincts.
The Senate election is given
to Frank Kellogg, the republi-
can candidate. Just how big his
victory is is uncertain as many
precincts are still unheard from.
Burnquist for Governor and
Schmahl for Secretary of State,
won by such tremendous MAORI
ties that there was no fun in
counting the vote. Other mem
bers of the state ticket were
still unheard from in the great

Erie Mckay Sails
F0rChina N0v.11
Redwood County Boy Given
Splendid Position with Head
quarters at Hong Kong

Erie Mckay, the son of Mr..
and Mrs. Thos. Mckay of Delhi,
will sail Saturday for Hong Kong
China, to take up his work as
auditor of the Standard Oil Com
pany. Mr.. Mckay has recently
returned from New York where
he has been trying out" for
the position abroad and was the
one to receive the appointment
out of a group Of twenty-five
on trial. His work will take
him into the heart of China
where he will be in charge Of
native distributors of oil, will
open distributing stations in new
territory, etc. He will remain
for at least three years before
returning home.
Mr.. Mckay, although still
only boy, has made a very en-
viable record for himself in his
college and private life. While
being graduated from the State
University Of Minnesota, where
he took his degree in civil en-
cheering, Mr.. Mckay was Of
fered a ieutenancy in the regu-
lar U. S. army, the offer stat
ing that no further mental ex-
animation would be made-his
college record being sufficient.
At the same time came the Of
fer for the trial work with the
Standard Co. and a promise of
the work in China, should his
work prove satisfactory. That
it was very satisfactory is prov
en- by the fact that the office in
China was assigned him.
Mr.. Mckay has promised, at
some future time, to write of
his various experiences in China
for the Gazette readers.

Two Men Killed
In Auto Accident
Albert Heiman and Frank Plough
Receive Fatal Injuries at
LambertOn Crossing
ASHLEY EVER HURT
Fourth Man Slightly Injured,
Fifth Jumps before Car
Strikes Train

One of the worst auto acct.
dents Redwood County has ever
known occurred Monday morn
ing near Lamberton when a car
containing five men ran into a
freight train on the C. & N. w.
track at a crossing near Lam
berton. Albert lehman of Lam
berton was instantly killed,
Frank Plough of Kansas died
without regaining consciousness
after the accident, Ashley Ever
of Redwood Falls sustained a
broken leg, broken arm and i'll
ternal injuries and Frank Nc
Arthur of Lamberton sustained
several minor injuries. Harvey
Cooler, the fifth occupant of the
car, jumped to safety before the
accident happened.
The men were members of
the Wherland Electric Co.'s line
crew and were going to their
work of erecting a line between
Lamberton and Wabasso. R. F..
Wherland, with other members
Of his crew, was close behind
the fated car and saw the acct
dent.
Mr.. Ever, driving the car
which was wrecked, was unable
to see the approaching train ne-
cause of the large elevator which
stands close to the track, and
in the high wind which was
blowing, failed to hear the
whistle of the engine until too
late to prevent the accident.
Albert Heiman, one of the
dead men, was a man with a
family living in Lamberton.
Frank Plough, the other, was
a lad of about twenty-one years
and was a resident of Kansas
before coming to Redwood Falls
to work 8 few weeks ago. The
body was sent to Mr.. Thoughts
former home for burial.
Mr.. Ever is a resident of
Redwood County and was mar
ried about two weeks ago. just

Court Mill IS
Still Grinding
M. E. Garvey Acquitted of Ar
son Charge; Filkins And
Son Found Guilty
MANY CASES YET
Judge Olsen Will Be Busy Re-
mainder of Week And Per-
haps Longer

The real sensation OF the pres
ent term Of District Court was
sprung Friday evening, when M.
E. Garvey, the last of the three
suspects in the Seaforth arson
case, was acquitted by the jury
after only a few hours deibera-
ton.
This case has attracted wide
attention throughout the state,
and has been a feature in local
court circles for the past three
years. C. E. Reyes, who con-
fessed to burning the hotel at
Seaforth for a sum of money,
is now serving his sentence at
Saltwater, as is also T. M. Jor-
dan, who was proved to have
hired Keyes to set the fire. Jor-
dan turned states evidence in
the trial of last week, in which
M. E. Garvey was charged with
having been a conspirator in the
burning of the hotel. Evidence
was not sufficient however, to
convict Mr.. Garvey and he was
found not guilty. The defense
in this case was handled by Sen.
Frank Clague and Attorney Muir
ply of Wheaton, Mr.. Murphy
making one Of the most elo-
quent pleas to the jury that has
ever been made in local courts.
Filkins Guilty
Chas. Filkins and his son Earl
Filkins were indicted by the
grand jury on charge of assault
in the second degree on the per-
son of John Kelly. In trial be-
fore a jury they were found
guilty and sentence will be CIV
en- by Judge Olsen this morn
ing.
This case grew out of a neigh
borhood feud of long standing
and the same men are impli-
Gated in a damage suit, Kelly
VS.. Filkins, which will come be-
fore Judge Olsen at the next
term.
Several Cases Left
The other cases to come be-
fore Judge Olsen for jury trial
during the present term are
Crimmins Land Co. VS.. H. G..
Werder, Hart VS.. Krieger, Hum
phrey VS.. Sievers, Martinson VS..
Bank of Belview, and Hockett
VS.. Prokosch.
Following the jury cases will
come the court cases consisting
of seven appeals in the matter
of County Ditch No. 26, three
appeals in the case of County
Ditch No. %, and Chillquist VS.,
Torrens. The case of Isaksen
VS.. Meyer is reported settled
The case Of the City of Red
wood Falls VS.. John Lacy, an
argument Of law, will also be
argued before Judge Olsen dur
ing the present term.

KELLOGG For Senator
BurnquiSt Governor
SChmahl For Sec.
Bendixen Represents Redwood County In
Next House; Praxel In Lead For
Representative-At.Lar

test for Representative-at-Large
Pravel is conceded the victory
at present, with several precincts
in Brown and Redwood Coun-
ties still unheard from. Hauser
led in Redwood County in 80
precincts by 1908 votes to Prax-
ELS 1927, but early morning re-
ports gave Praxel a Brown
County lead of several hundred
votes. Just how much these
figures may be changed by night
is hard to say, but the present
concession is to Praxel.
Bendixen won as representa-
tive of Redwood County by a
vote, in thirty-two precincts, Of
1851 to Danielson's 1916.
Commissioners Close
In the Redwood County Com
! missioner contests in the first
and third districts the contests
were so extremely close that it
was impossible to get anything
definite until the last vote IS
counted. The candidates in the
Third are C. G.. Sasse and Ed.
Steff1, and in the first George
Schniesing and L. H. Terhell.
Sasse and Schmiesing were very
slightly in the lead at ten o'clock.
In fact the only decisive vic
tories apparently are A. R. A.
Laudon for judge of Probate W..
G. Weldon for clerk of court,
and Jas. P. Gaffney, commits
sioner in the fifth district. These
gentlemen had no opponents and
the victory is conclusively an
nOunced.
Van Lear Mayor
One of the many big surprises
in Tuesdays vote was the cleo
ton of Van Lear, the socialist
candidate for mayor Of Mime
apolis. Results on the election
Of Judge Quinn in which the
rural districts have been much
interested have not been an
J nOlnced.
