KINDNESS BRINGS REWARD
Eairmont Man Heir To Estate Left
By James Stewart

Fairmont August 26 The last
will and testament of the late James
Stewart, eccentric and aged civil
war veteran and pioneer was filed
for probate today.
Mr.. Stewart recognizing the great
kindness shown him in his last years
by Proprietor s. A. Luedtke of
life savings to Mr.. Luedtke.
Il give, devise and bequeath to
my beloved friend, e. A. Luedtke
of FaiTmont Mimi, all my property
both real, personal and mixed, OF
every kind and nature and discrip-
ton, wherever situate" says the
testator in the will, dated March Is
1923.
The estate inventories about $5,-
500. There is q house and lot in
Fairmont worth $4,000. The rest
is in certificates Of deposit.
The veterans estate accrues from
the sale of his Tenhassen home
stead some twenty five years ago,
and the savings he has been able to
make from his civil war pension.
The bequest to Mr.. Luedtke is fit
ting recognition Of unusual kind
ness.
A few years ago Mr.. Stewart, aged
broken in health, without a relative
in the world, found himself home
less and alone. In this pitiable
plight the old man was taken into
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Luedtke,
without thought Of money or price.
Here for the remainder of his life
the veteran was given the tender
care that a member of the Luedtke
family could expect. In later
months, especially, he was a great
care, but never for a moment did the
Luedtkes consider turning him over
to an institution.
They ministered to him as his
earthly end approached and it is
pleasing to know that while there
Is reward for them in Heaven for

WHO PAYS FOR DAMAGE
Suppose Pebble Flies Against Win
dow And Breaks Glass


If your automobile sQueezes a
pebble under the edge of tire, and
the pebble flies against a merchants
show window and breaks it, are you
liable for damages to the OWNER Of
the plate glass?
At least one Faribault lawyer
thinks you are, and a local insur-
ance authority says the owner of the
window would receive prompt pay.
ment from the company in which
the owner of the automobile is in
sured, says The Faribault News.
The discussion arose after small
stone broke one of the windows of
&c. w. Turner's electrical store this
week. Part of the sidewalk jury
thought Mr.. Turner was entitled to
recover. Others thought differently.
They argued that inasmuch as the
accident was entirely beyond the
control of the driver of the car, it's
owner could not be held liable. One
man who hung out for conviction
cited the case OF straw hat which
was blown out of one automobile in
Mankato, was run over by the car
Immediately following. The insur-
ance company in which the second
car was insured paid the owner OF
the hat $3.50.
Then new angle was presented
by the clever curbstone counsel for
the defense, who suggested that II
the automobile owner should be
held liable he could bring a claim
for damage against the city. His
contention was that gravel wagons
and trucks should not be permitted
to pass through the business dis
trict, as they scatter small stones
on the paving. in the path of many
automobiles. II was urged in favor
of restriction of such traffic that
wagons and trucks, except where
necessary in repair of streets or
similar work, are not permitted in
congested streets in the larger cit
les.
1t was further suggested that such
an accident might prove far more
serious than the cracking OF a plate
glass window. The flying stone
might easily strike young child IN
the head, and cause death. 1t might
cause the loss of an eye, or such in
jury as to cause loss of a foot or a
hand. In that case heavy damages
might be sought by the injured per-
son or his family
