from the farm Sunday afternoon Wis
iting, and coming back to feed the
swine in the early evening he dis
covered some dead chickens about the
barn and in manager he found part
ly concealed a rifle, evidently. used in
killing the chickens. Thinking that
perhaps they might return later at
night to get the chickens they had
killed and their rifle, he went to the
house and quietly awaited their re-
turn. About ten o'clock he saw some-
one strike match in the barn and
with the rife he had found, in his
hand, he started out to the barn.
One OF them, evidently on guard, saw
him coming and giving the alarm they
beat it for a waiting ear out by the
road, but not before Billie had sent
several bullets after them with their
own gun. In their haste they, had
some difficulty in starting their car,

George R. Kluegel, for many years
engaged in the furniture business at
Lamberton, has gone into bankruptcy.
The store was closed last week. His
connections with the fefunct State
Bank of Lamberton, which was closed
last fall, and the boycott brought on
by farmers on account of difference
of opinion on political matters, is
said to be the cause of his failure.
We presume those who assisted in the
boycott, and those who have been
praying for the downfall of the small
town business men are now rejoicing
in the downfall of one of the best
boosters for the home community
that Lamberton ever had, or ever will
nave. The Palace Clothing Store at
Lamberton, owned by Ed. Anderson
was also closed by the creditors fast
week. An, electric supply company
here has also closed its doors. Too
many newspapers in the town was
he beginning of the end, and Lam
oerton is now paying the price. Not
only is the town suffering, but the
farming community has been hit equ-
lily as hard through bank assess
nents and losses, and the breaking
1own in general of the community
which it has taken years to build up.
