Father, Three Sons Die
In Automobile Crash
Mother and Fourth Boy Are In
jured as Machines Collide
Near MOntevideO

Monevideo, Aug. ia father
and three sons were dead today as
a result of collision of two au-
tomobiles on a highway intersec-
ton II miles north of here Sun
day.
The dead are Stanley F1ygare, II

from Fergus Falls to visit relatives
at Winthrop, while Stickney and
the four men were on their way

cars, and Flygar the other.

after the collision, but those who
survived the crash were taken from
the car without suffering burns.

Lightning Does Damage
i'm Hoboken Tuesday
Telephone at Charles Parkinson
Home Blown Out-AIso Caused
Havoc at Filling Station

During the rain storm, early
Tuesday morning, bright streak
OF lightning and loud peal of
thunder, raised many Sank Centre
ties from their beds. The crash
caused considerable damage to tele-
phones and lights in Hoboken.
At the Chas. Parkinson home the
lightning ripped the door off the
telephone, burned out the fuse
plugs and scattered the porcelain
of the fuse box over the entire
room. A curtain near the telephone
was somewhat scorched.
At the White Eagle filing sta
ton, in Hoboken, the light system
was put out of commission. It is
thought that the bolt struck a
wire near the station, as the insu-
lation was burned for a consider
able distance from one of the wires.
The meter was ripped from the
wall and the lights and fuses were
blown out. That part of the city
was in darkness until the neces-
sary repairs could be made the
next day.

Eastern Butter Market
Lower Than Last Week
Strong Demand for Top Quality
Eggs-POultry Quotations Same
as Last Week

Eastern butter markets during
the past week have been somewhat
unsettled. Chicago butter market
on 80 Score Standards is quoted to-
day at 411a cents, or a decline of
one cent as compared with last
Monday. New York 90 Score Elk
tras are a quarter cent lower.
Production at this time is prac-
tically on party with year ago
and as compared with a week ago
will show only normal decrease.
With cooler weather, conditions
should prove more favorable but
with the declining season, it is diff
fcult to determine to what extent
the actual milk and butter produc-
ton will be affected during the next
few weeks.
Receipts of eggs on the Eastern
market continues to decrease and
the volume available in Chicago,
Boston, New York and Philadel-
phia from Monday to Friday last
week shows decrease of aproxi-
mately $500 cases as compared with
SdlIIc 0dyS WCCh p1CNiouo. HCLCi al
selling situation is showing slight
improvement and with better buy
ing demand there has been an ad-
vance in quotations for top quail
ity eggs.
Chicago egg market today on
Firsts is "a to "a u cents. The New
York quotation on Firsts is the
same.
A review of the live poultry mar
keting situation for last week
shows there was little increase in

Farm Buildings Burn
Sunday Afternoon
L. e. Gallagher, Padua, Suffers Sc
we're LOss-Origin of Blaze
Unknown

Sunday afternoon the barn on
the L. E. Gallagher farm 21a miles
east of Padua, was found to be on
fire.
Mr.. and Mrs. Floyd Clark and
family, of Sank Centre, were spend
ing the day with the Gallaghers
and thegrown-ups were enjoying
quiet visit after the midday
meal had been enjoyed.
About 4:30 one of the children
came into the house and said it
looked like the barn was on fire.
Investigation proved that the build
ing, about 36x56, was almost COM
pletely engulfed in flames. The
only stock in the barn was several
brood sows and small pigs. The
sows were removed but about 80
pigs were destroyed.
The neighbors rushed to the as
sistance of Mr.. Gallagher and a
detachment of the Sank Centre
fire department with the modern
chemical and pumper fastened to
the rescue. But little material from
the barn was saved and the fire
was subdued after the barn had
been destroyed and one end of the
machine shed badly burned, but
not before all of the machinery
had been removed to a safe dis
lance.
The barn was filled with hay,
about $50 bushel of oats, five sets
of work harness and a few other
small items.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
The barn was insured for $1,000
in the st. Paul Fire and Marine In
surance Co. The contents were in
sured in the North Fork Farmers
Mutual. The insurance, however
will not cover the loss.
Mr.. Gallagher will start the cree
ton of new barn as soon as the
adjustment of his loss has been
made by the insurance companies.

Dora Ward

One of the saddest deaths the
Herald has been called upon to
chronicle for some time was that
of little Dora Ward, IA months old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. L. P.
Ward, residing on the o. S. Cass
farm south of the city.
Friday morning of last week Mrs
Ward gave Dora cookie and set
her on the floor while she went
about her work in the kitchen. In
a short time Dora was convulsed
with a severe attack of strangula-
ton. She was hurried into the
city for medical attention, but
passed away a short time after she
reached the physicians office.
: It was first thought that she was
strangled with crumbs from the
cookies. An X-Ray after death dis
closed a screw lodged in the
throat. How the babe got hold of
the screw is one of those unac-
countable things which never will
be solved.
The Wards came to Sank Centre
from Burtrum and moved onto the
Cass farm July Is. The remains
were taken to the home of Mrs.
Wards parents at Burtrum Satur-
day morning. The funeral was
held Sunday first from the home
and later from the United Breth-
rem church.
Besides the bereaved parents the
immediate family consists of two
surviving sisters, Dorothy and
Laura.
