working under the personal
direction of President Chacon to
alleviate the suffering of the
Hundreds made homeless by the
eruption of the volcano Santa
Maria.
Z It was believed between so and
100 persons lost their lives when
trapped in the path of the
volcano's lava flow.
8 An airplane observer who flew
&Hs low over the crater as he
dared, reported that the vol
cano's activity was continuing
and that the course of the main
flow Of lava was toward the sea.
Numerous large coffee planta-
lions were completely wiped out.
Property damage was estimated
lin excess Of $2,000,000.
Homeless and wounded trekked
into this city today in every pos
sible conveyance bringing numer-
-Dus tales of horror.
The volcano Santa Maria is
1880 feet high and overlooks
the Pacific Ocean. It is 10 miles
northwest Of this city. 1t has
S1ntermittently shown signs of
activity since 1902 when 1t
serupted and destroyed Quezalten-
xango and other, towns, but the
present eruption has caused
more damage than any since
then.

self through the heart. The county
coroner, W. P. Gottry of Pine City,
was called Immediately, and he pro-
nounced it suicide.
Elmer H. Parsons was born at
Brooklyn, ILL.,, on Nov. 4, 1871, and
grew up in his native state. AS a
young man he took up telegraphy and
was an operator near the Twin Cities
for two or three years before coming
to Brook Park, 80 years ago, at the
age of 27. He was the first agent and
operator at Brook Park and attended
to his work very faithfully. He was
married before coming to Pine. county,
and four children were born to this
union, two of whom passed away in
infancy. The living are Wilbur, q,
relief operator on the Great Northern
Railway and presently working at En-
met Tower, near Hibbing; Bernice, "a,
at home, and who kept house for her
father Mrs. Parsons passed away
five years ago and was laid to rest in
the Brook Park cemetery, where the
body of Mr.. Parsons will now also

The funeral will be held Friday af-
ternoon at 100 in the Methodist
church, the Rev. T. J. f. Wilson of
Hinckley, officiating. The pallbear-
ers will be C. L. Hoagland. F. C. Sey-
mour, Harley Alderman, Art Klement,
Richard Berndt, and H. A. Parsons.
The date of the funeral was set ahead
awaiting the arrival of relatives.
Folks in the Brook Park community
are still at a loss to understand this
lending of it alp by a man who had
long been their neighbor and friend
a man whom everybody respected. He
had left a note to his children stating
that he was in poor health and figured
that he did not have long to live. The
loss of his wife five years ago may
have had a bearing on the case, since
he had nice home and had no finan-
cial worries to make him respondent.
Mr. Parsons was of a quiet nature but
a hard worker for any cause that he
thought right.
The sympathy of friends and neigh
bors is extended to the bereaved ones
in the loss of a good father.

ANOTHER APPEAL TO
ASKOV COMMUNITY

A large number of men and women
answered the call for help Saturday
to clean up the cemetery. but as usu-
al, not enough responded so that we
could get accomplished that which
is so sadly needed, and ought to be
done. We need Is or 20 loads of
gravel yet. Jens Steffensen has kind
ly donated as much as we need, so
those of you who were unable to help
Saturday, will please come Saturday,
June the Sth in the afternoon to haul
gravel either with team and wagon or
truck. Now let us put our shoulders
to the wheel and put the cemetery in
good condition. We cannot possibly
erect a better monument for our
friends and loved ones, than by keep
ing the place respectable.
Those who cannot come out may
make donation to the cause, and it
will be worked out to advantage later
on and in the proper place. Dona-
tions will be accepted at the bank.
We want to keep the place neat and
tidy and to do so we ask your CO.
operation. Don't throw rubbish in
the walks or along the east fence, but
carry it to the place provided for that
purpose 0he southwest corner of the
cemetery.
Those who will respond to work,
please call up Fred johnson, who will
direct the work.
Committee,
