Max Johnson Injured in Battle With
Monster Pickerel

Mr.. and Mrs. Max johnson and
family returned Thursday night from
a months vacation spent at points in
Wisconsin, their former home. They
spent much of their time at Eau
Claire. The journey of 1000 miles
was made by auto and they report a
most delightful vacation. Max did
more or less fishing and displays the
scars on his thumb, caused by a bite
from vicious pickerel. At Lake
City, Mimi, they saw some interest
ing seining operations. Fishermen
with immense seines seine the lake
and in one haul brot out IL barrels
of carp and sheepshead fish, which
is canned and shipped east for the
cheaper trade. All other fish caught
in the seines are thrown back into
the lake. .
Mr.. Johnson reports the crops in
Wisconsin and Minnesota badly dam
aged by the recent hot weather. Corn
and potatoes on land estimated to be
worth $500 an acre are not as good
as those products raised in the vicin-
lily of Minot and the heat has shrivel-
ed up the leaves on the trees.
Mrs. Joseph Tuschhoff, sister Of
Mrs. johnson, and her two children,
accompanied the johnson family to
Minot for a visit.

THOT BROTHER DEAD-BODY
PROVED TO BE THAT OF UNCLE

Wahpeton, N. d., Aug. 5.-lmaginc
the sensation if you can, which came
to the children Of the Frank Wcling
family Of Kent, when casket sup
posed to contain the remains Of their
beloved brother John Yelling proved
to contain the body Of an uncle, Henry
Yelling, whom they had seldom heard
Of and never seen for twenty years.
The Welings at Kent received word
last week that John Yelling passed
away at st. Louis, Mo-, where he was
working, and were asked for instruc-
tons for the disposal of the remains.
The Welings are rather up against
it financially, and the cost Of ship
ping the body from st. Louis to Kent,
with the added expense of funeral
disheartened them, but remembering
that John who was service man, had
maintained his army life insurance
they were able to borrow money to
pay the expenses expecting that it
would be repaid from the insurance.
Word was sent to forward the body
to Kent, the family home, for burial.
The casket arrived Tuesday morning,
and Tuesday evening it was opened.

stead Of the body of John, who is "a
years of age, it proved to be that Of
Henry, who is past 20 years old, and
had not been seen in his old home
vicinity for twenty years. He was a
bachelor and apparently had been in
St. Louis for some time, although it is
doubtful if John, also in St. Louis,
knew of his uncle's presence there or
had heard of his death.

the loan which they made for ship
ment and burial expenses, as de-
ceased was entirely without means,
and had no insurance.
