Voters of District
ia Contest Election
Judge Emerson Hears Protest
in Regard to Bonds and
Moving School Site

Judge Albert Emerson of the Dis
trict court was here yesterday to
hear the testimony in regard to the
contesting of the special election
held in school district ia, June IL.
The contest was based on an irregu-
larity in the election due to a defect
in the ballots. Judge Emerson heard
the testimony of both factions of the
voters and will render his decision
within few days.
The votes of the district which is
east of Vesta met to determine two
questions; to vote on bonds for a
new school house and to decide
whether or not the site of the school
would be moved. The bond issue for
a new building carried with few dis
senting votes but that pertaining to
moving the site passed with ma
jority barely above that required by
law to make a legal change. The
vote favoring a change passed by a
count of 26 to Is which is just with
in the three-fifths vote required. A
decision upholding the protest would
necessitate another election in order
to move the location of the school.

Tornado Cuts 2O-Mile Swath as
1t Destroys Barns and
Other Farm Property

A tornado struck west of Marshall
late Sunday afternoon, and after
destroying property over a twenty
mile path whirled itself out in the
southwest part of Redwood county.
The storm cut a swath in places as
much as seven miles wide, blew down
many barns and other buildings and
caused thousands of dollars worth of
property damage to livestock, grain
and farm buildings. AS far as can
be determined no human lives were
lost.
Appearing in Gales and Westline
townships at about p. m. the twist
er did it's greatest damage to barns
owned by farmers of those town.
ships. At the Hogan johnson farm
a large barn, sheltering eight horses
at the time of the storm, was demo-
lished and Mr.. johnson and his sons
were able to save the horses only at
ter using axes to free them from
imprisoning timbers. None of the
horses was badly hurt although some
of them were held down by hundreds
of pounds of weight. No cattle were
in the barn at the time. Grain, harm
esses and other farm equipment in
the barn were scattered with aband-
on while a double silo and the wind
mill on the place were rendered use
less.
A large barn on the Chris Larson
farm was badly wrecked and silo
was completely flattened. Mr.. and
Mrs. Doig and their granddaughter
of Walnut Grove stopped at the farm
for shelter as the storm approached

Lightning Strikes
Murset Oil Station

Lightning played one of it's pranks,
Friday evening, when it struck the
oil station Of Fred Murset on high
way in the southwest part of the
city with little damage. The bolt
struck the canopy-roof over the oil
pumps, tore down through the steel
lath and into the ground doing no
more than to tear a section of the
lath out. Mr.. Murset and his daugh-
ter, Luverne were standing less than
20 feet from the pumps in the door
way of the office and suffered no i'll
effects from the charge other than
the mental shock.

Preliminary Plans
of Fair Announced
County Fair to Open September
p and Run Four Days. Free
Attractions Secured

Plans for the annual Redwood
County fair, to be held here Septem-
Der % to Is inclusive, are rapidly
going forward with the premium list
already in the hands of the printers.
The premium list of this year is on
a par with that of former years and
the horticulture and poultry exhibits
will be open to adjoining counties in
stead of being restricted to Red
wood county alone as in previous
years.
Entry day for exhibits at the fair
with be held Monday the 22nd with
no charge at the gate although the
regular free attractions will be held
in the evening with the Famous
Roger Brothers as the main attrac-
ton. The Roger Brothers attrac-
tions will appear during the first
three days Of the fair during the eve
nings of each day and the afternoons
of Tuesday and Wednesday. Roger
Brothers will present ten different
acts during the fair including that of
Archie Roger who has the distinction
of being the worlds oldest clown but
who still ranks among the top-notch-
ers Of the profession.
The regular dances will be held
each night of the fair and the fair
board has secured one Of the best
orchestras possible to obtain for
these dances. A gigantic fireworks
display will be exhibited Tuesday
Wednesday, and Thursday evenings
while the Thursday evening program
will also feature the Johnny R.
Riggs troupe.
1t is planned to secure the best
county bands possible to supply the
music during the four days of the
fair. An Innovation among county
fairs will be the absolute insistence
that all exhibits and fair attractions
remain intact until the day follow
ing the fair or until after the fair
has officially closed. Previously at
fractions have started a general ex-
odus in the afternoon of the last day
with the result that the last day
amounted to no more than a closing
out affair. The remaining of all at
fractions is expected to preserve the
attractiveness of the fair until after
it has officially closed.

Property Loss Great in Storm
Area Last Sunday Afternoon

and narrowly escaped serious injury
when a tree under which they had
driven blew down. Becoming alarm
ed they moved the car near the barn
and here the silo was toppled over
on one side of them and an addition
to the barn crashed over at the same
time, part of it falling on the car.
The car was slightly damaged.
Fred Glib, living in the same dis
trict, had his barn destroyed as was
the windmill and other farm proper
ty. His granary was moved over 80
feet, the automobile was badly dam
aged and considerable livestock was
killed or injured. The windows and
frames of the farm home was torn
away by the twister.
Erwin Serr and Fred Serr had
barns and sheds demolished while
another barn on the Van Dorsten
farm had the roof torn away and the
frame of the building twisted out of
shape.
Edward Schafer, Paul Grunden
and Axel Treudson suffered the loss
of silos while hay in the NOW of the
Ed. Michigan barn probably saved it
from total destruction.
Hundreds of acres of grain shocks
were literally scattered to the four
winds and trees were uprooted
throughout the storm area. A thresh-
ing rig belonging to Charles Nimitz
was blown over and on many farms,
including that of Tom Hicks, houses,
barns and farm equipment was
damaged. Absence of livestock in
the barns due to the hot weather
prevented far greater losses. Hail
was reported in many places and it
is estimated that over 80 barns were
destroyed in the Marshall-Ivanhoe
district alone.

Heart Attack Causes Death of
A. HI. Fennen near HOcket
Point. Body Recovered

Acute dilation of the heart due to
over exertion caused the death of
Albert H. Fennen of Willow Lake
township while in swimming in Lake
Redwood here Sunday afternoon.
Fennen sank beneath the surface of
the lake about Is feet off the shore
of what is known as the old Hocket
point and his body was not recover
ed until an hour and a half later.
1t is thought he died before sinking.
Artificial respiration methods failed
to get results.
Fennen and group Of young men,
including his two brothers, Chris and
Walter, had been riding during the
day and swimming was suggested
as means of escaping the extreme
heat of the day. Going to the lake
at the point the men plunged into
the water and Albert Fennen, who is
know as a good swimmer, swan
across the lake and back to the point
where he sank. Here he began div
ing and apparently showed no dis
tress until he disappeared from the
surface at about $3.50 p. m.
AS soon as he sank his companions
began to search for him and not
finding him became alarmed. Some
of them attempted to find nearby
help and not securing anyone came
into the city. Finally the fire de-
! partment was called and with the
aid of volunteers succeeded in bring
ing the body to the surface.
Bringing him to the shore at about
o'clock the firemen and the physi-
clan who was called directed respira-
ton methods but he did not respond.
An examination revealed his death
was not due to drowning but was
caused by heart failure. He was in
exceptionally good health.
Fennen, who was 80 years old,
leaves a wife and four small children.
Funeral services are to be held this
afternoon at 2 o'clock from the Luth-
eran church on highway 4 in Willow
Lake township.
