Sec. of State at
Marshall Sept. Il
julius A. Schmahl to Address
Fair Crowds at Marshall
and at Candy

The management of the Lyon
County Fair has secured Secre-
tary of State, Julius A. Schmahl,
to come to Marshall Friday, Sep
TENDER Fl, and to give a talk
during the afternoon program.
Mr.. Schmahl has been on the
speaking platform almost con-
stantly during the last several
weeks, giving addresses in the
cause of patriotism throughout
the state, as well as in towns
outside the state, and Marshall
is congratulating herself on hav-
ing secured him for this date.
In view Of the fact that Mr..
Schmahl is a citizen Of Redwood
Falls, Marshall has designated
the day of his visit to her fair
as Redwood County Day" and
invites all residents of the coun-
ty to be present. Lyon County
has the second best county fair
in the state and one that is well
worth visiting.
Candy also announces that Mr..
Schmahl will give a patriotic adj
dress at the Yellow Medicine
county fair at Candy next Sat
urday, September Is, and invites
Redwood county people to attend.

Cars Collide

The cars of Alderman John
Schilt and Judge A. R. A. Lau-
don collided at the intersection
Of Third and Washington Streets
last Thursday, damaging both
cars somewhat but injuring
neither occupant. There has been
a rather persistent rumor that
the Alderman was a little lax in
his observation of that road
rule which says that the car
approaching from the right has
the right of way at an intersec-
tion. This may have been the
cause Of the trouble-or of
course there may have been 9th
er reasons of which these two
gentlemen have been hitherto
unsupported. At any rate their
autoes bumped noses and did it
thoroughly.

|. W. WIS XIII Two
And Injure Third
jandits Attack Men on Way to
Harvest Field; Three of For
mer Landed i'm Jail

Just as Minneapolis detectives
were Saturday about to set out
after a gang of four highway
men known to have started for
the harvest fields to rob the la
borers, news of a desperate
pitched battle in which two men
were killed and another wound
ed on a box car on a moving
train near Glencoe Friday night,
was received at headquarters.
The bandits attacked the har-
vest hands when they found
them in the car. Both sides
opened fire Immediately. Frank
Durham, Lakeville, a farmland,
was killed, as was one of the
bandits, whose name the police
had not learned. John Moss, the
other farmland, was shot thru
the arm and thrown from the
train while unconscious.
Calls For Sheriff.
He recovered in time to run
two miles to a farmhouse and
telephone Sheriff Frank Clous,
Glencoe, who had the train
stopped at Sumpter, where the
remaining three bandits were
captured. The bodies were not
discovered until the train got to
Bird Island, where they were
found hidden beneath some hay
in corner of the car.
The bandits were members OF
a gang of |. w. w. workers op-
Grating out of Minneapolis, &C
cording to two members who
pleaded guilty of carrying con-
cealed weapons, in district court
Saturday and were sentenced to
the workhouse. These men, Ben
Groves and Albert Kuehl, said
the men who engaged in the
fight Friday night were their
partners and they had organ
lied a gang to prey on harvest
hands. They were arrested
Thursday night as suspicious
characters. The police found
them heavily armed.
Two To WOrkhOuse.
They said they have been aid
ing in forcing strikes in the
North Dakota harvest fields.
Judge John H. Steele sentenced
Kuehl to one year and Groves to
nine months in the workhouse
for carrying concealed weapons,
The three bandits captured at
Sumpter will probably be
brought to Minneapolis.

Redwood Gounty
Fair Comes Next
Arrangements Being Made for
Best Fair Redwood County
Has Ever Had
RACE PROSPECTS GOOD
Dates Are September 25, 26, n
and %; Big Night Fairs Last
Three Nights

Redwood County is again MAX
ing preparations for another of
her famous fairs, and is positive
that this is going to be the big
best and best in AL her fair his
tory. With the splendid crop
and stock conditions now exist
ing in the county the exhibit
will undoubtedly rival anything
ever shown here before and
barns and exhibit hall are being
put into shape to take care of
the most extensive display ever
made.
Races Good.
Horsemen throughout the
country are showing great in
terest in the races and a fine
string of horses is assured.
Three thousand dollars is the
amount to be used in the race
purses, and the list on entries
promises to include many speedy
horses. Three races will be CIV
en- each afternoon Of Wednes-
day, Thursday and Friday.
Free Attractions.
Each afternoon a good enter
tainment. will also be given be-
fore the grandstand, the man
agement having secured "the
Six Galvins," who are clever cy-
clists,' "The Aldines," three ar
lists who do some mighty clever
bar stunts, and "The Twirling
Talbuts," acrobats and tumblers.
These performers will also ap-
pear each evening.
Night Shows.
| The night shows were very
popular feature of the fair of
1916 and will be held again this
year. AS mentioned above the
free attractions will be given
each night and there will also
be a dance each night in the
llarge tent erected for that pur-
pose. Thorburn's Orchestra will
furnish the music and the floor
will be of the same quality and
smoothness as that in regu-
lar dance hall.
Fire Works.
| Possibly the biggest feature
of the night shows will be the
| fireworks, a complete program
of which will be given each
night. These are the well-known
Dufield Pyrotechnetics, famous
wherever fireworks are known
and a new feature this year will
be the Great Bombardment OF
the Dardanelles. The evening
program will be we'll worth the
attendance of everyone who has
any means of getting to it.

Buys New Car

J. C. Jackson of Morgan, placed
an order Tuesday morning for a
Cadillac Victoria Type 81. This
is probably the best car Of the
roadster type yet sold in Red
wood County and is a gift from
Mr.. Jackson to his wife. The car
is arranged to carry four pas
sengers comfortably having reg
ular seating capacity for three
and a comfortable emergency
seat. The car is glass enclosed,
the glass in doors and windows
being easily lowered when an
open car is desired. Extra tires
are carried in a concealed COM
partment under the tonneau. The
model contains all the popular
Cadillac features of the touring
cars which are proving such
prime favorites and is also an
exceptionally good looking small
er car model, special attention
having been paid to line, and
other exterior features. The car
has been ordered for spring de-
livery and will cost $3,175. The
order was placed by Mr.. Jack
son with r. Stensvad, distribu-
tor for the Northwestern Cad
lilac Company of Minneapolis.
Mr.. Stensvad and L. Craig, also

pany, called on Mr.. Jackson
