tant, and who took in the situation
at once and in an instant had
thrown off his coat, vest and
boots and was flying up the lake
shore to where his skiff was, mile
and half away.
In the meantime Mr.. Getchell,
who dare not add his weight to
that of the eleven others on the
boat, which was already three feet
under water, kept swimming and
endeavoring by words of en-
couragement to keep the more ter
rified ones in their places, some of
whom were so completely beside
themselves with terror that as fast
as they were placed upon the boat
they would plunge into the lake or
allow themselves to drift off: Mr..
Getchell kept exerting himself in
this way until he became so be-
numed that he was helpless, and
four of the unfortunates, having
been several times placed on the
boat, drifted off again and went
down before young Yarno, accom-
panied by Mr.. F. "A. Caswell,
whom he had called to his assis-
tance arrived with the skiff, which
was about 35 minutes from che
time the boat capsized. Four of
the eight surviving members of
the party were taken off and landed
and the skiff returned in time to
save the remaining four. Up TO
the time the first load was taken
into the skiff Mr.. Getchell had re-
manned in the water, when he was
helped onto the boat completely ex-
hausted and almost unconscious.
But one of the party, young Get
! chell, was able to stand when TAX
en- ashore. They were taken to
the house of Mr.. M. H. Smith
and everything possible done for
their relief, Frank Yarno having
started for town to summon Doct-
or as soon as he had them all
safely landed, and after the doct-
or had administered restoratives
they were brought to town and
all have recovered.
The four drowned were Joseph
Beach, of Birchdale who leaves a
wife and seven children in poor
circumstances; Frank Gromberg,
13 years old, whose parents live at
Evansville, Douglas county; Cor
don and Levert Burgess, aged 8
and IL years, bright and promising
boys, whose parents reside in this
town.
Sunday evening a party went up
from town to search for the bodies,
but did not succeed in finding
either of them, and early Monday
morning search was resumed re-
sulting in the recovery of the re-
mains of Frank Gromberg. On
Tuesday afternoon the body of
Gordon Burgess was found and
the remains of his brother Levert
on Wednesday evening, and they
were buried together on Thursday.
Up to the time we go to press
the body of Mr.. Beach has not
been recovered, although search
has been continued every day since
| the accident. The water is 20
feet deep at the place where they
were drowned.

northeast bank. We followed the
West Nueces to Camp Wood where
the rails ended. by that time /
knew that the map was in error
and we were on the wrong course,
but as there was insufficient fuel
remaining to warrant our cutting
across the mountains to the west,
we landed in a small sheep pasture
near Barkedale. This pasture was
not large enough for US both to
take off together so I flew the ship
over to Camp Wood alone and
landed in the town square. With
the wind blowing from the right
direction, and by taking off under
two telephone lines and over one
road, the square afforded a long
enough runway, provided the wind
was blowing from the proper di-
rection.

20 Years Ago
Excerpts from the Herald of
On Yo.pe Aoo

| SS SoAo <NSo
A party of young people passed
through here Saturday noon with
a seventeen pound pickerel they
claimed to have speared in Lake
Osakis. The fish was a monster
and attracted considerable atten
| ton.
Sunday, Monday and Tuesday
We're warm spring days, Tuesday
being like summer with the mer-
curry up to 80. Wednesday was
colder and that night there was a
hard freeze. Thursday morning
winter overcoats were in demand
again. !
The two leading events in Sank
Centre the past week have been
the city election and the pompa-
dour hair cuts of the young men
of the town. Bunny" McGibbon,
who had been sporting a heavy
foot ball crop of hair, led the
procession a week ago and appear
ed with a pompadour. A. F. Sire
bel followed few days later, and
now practically every young man
in town has his hair cut that way.
What will happen next the Herald
is not prepared to say.
On the ninth day of April, 1866,
"a party of five persons consisting
ofO. B. Boobar and his father
H. A. Boobar, Byron Carr and his
father j. D. Carr, and George
Nottage, camped- at Lake Osakis
and had a great time fishing. His
tory records that they caught three
barrels of the finny tribe. On the
anniversary this year Byron Carr
visited the lake and found the
very spot upon which the camp
was pitched. He says the fish
were still running. Of the party OF
five o. B. Boobar and Byron Carr
are the only ones who are now
alive.
Those interested in base ball
are agitating the proposition OF
organizing club in Sank Centre
this season. There are a number
of good local players and with the
material at hand there is no rea,
son why Sank Centre should not
have a good club.
The Sank Centre Granite Works
has added new machinery and is
branching out. Mr.. Michelich is
a hustler and will make things hum
along this line.
Dahlem Will Build-A fine new
business block will be erected in
Sank Centre in the near future.
Albert Dahlem is back of the
project. Mr.. Dahlem recently

Ann thought better of what she
had been about to sayTthat she
was clear now and that Hanna
could shift for herself. Quite
truthfully she declared she had
no money. Benny had paid FOR
everything and hadn't offered her
a dollar; he seemed to think 1t
was the right way.

genuinely alarmed, but Hanna was
adamant.

crystal bottles and jars, the GOLD

With a wary look over her
shoulder, she reached out swiftly,
closed her fingers on a diamond
and sapphire brooch, and was
slapping powder at her nose when
Ann appeared.
They were almost friendly when
they parted. their battle having
been carried into the open. After
all they were mother and daugh-
ter, with like minds and like
moods.
Within the hour a coldly dis
approving butler showed Freddie
Sheldon into her boudoir. Freddie
came cautiously, not at all in live
with the thought of Unexpectedly
meeting Benny Black here.
But Benny Blacks wife laughed
and called him a goose, and mixed
several rounds of cocktails, and
Freddie felt better. And in the
end Ann had to insist upon his
leaving a little hurriedly and more
than a little furtively.

My soul is dead"'
That night Monty Deane died.
In that little muslin curtalned
room that was his daughters. he
had passed out of this world with
no one knowing just when he
had breathed his last.
Mrs. O'Day had watched at his
bedside the fore part of the night;
Dairy from midnight on. He
died some time after l o'clock in
the morning.
"Oh. my God"' Mrs. O'Day ex-
claimed when Dairy called her
both and the three knelt down to
pray.
While the spectacular death OF
Julie Abbott had brought the re-
porters to the O'Day cottage, the
death of the man who was once
her husband caused only mini
mum of interest in Appleton.
Hardly anyone knew he was
EN,,x~ lss
friends.
Until dawn. on the night that
Monty Deane died. Mrs. ODay
and Nancy had talked and pom
dered what to do. They decided
they would have him buried be-
side Julie, as unceremoniously as
possible. Deep in Maggie O'Day's
heart was the hope that now
Nancy was hers forever, that
there would be no one ever
coming to claim her again.
- Nancy wondered II now was
the time to confess her relation
ship to Caroline Glendenning-
Deane. The thought terrified her.
She could not tell why. But she
knew she could not go to Mrs.
Deane-not now, not yet:
Wasn't it better to write flnis
to the story OF Monty Deane and
Julie Abbott? To let the dead
past keep it's secrets? What II
the newspapers should get the
story of Monty's identity now.
Could she stand having her pic
ture in every paper in the State
--everywhere?- Couldn't she go
on alone, letting things work out
as they would?
So she didn't tell Mrs. O'Day
she had been in the Deane home,
had met Mrs. Deane. Some force
stronger than her own strong Will
stopped her.
