BRUNO MANS KIN
KILLED BY BOMB

X. E. Churchill, 80 year old Seattle
building contractor, was fatally in
jured when his automobile was
bombed Wednesday morning, Dec. 80,
while he was driving it along one of
the streets in that city. Mr. Church
ill was formerly a resident of Bruno,
having lived there some years ago
with his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. A. L.
Churchill. L. r. Churchill of Bruno,
is relative of the dead man. The
dead mans father narrowly missed
being a victim of the tragedy by the
fact that he had just previously left
the car of his son at a house which
was under construction.
The terrific force of the explosion
which took the life or Mr.. Churchill,
completely destroyed all possible de-
tail from which a clue to the bomb
ing might be obtained but it was
thought by the dead man, who gave a
statement before he died, that the
deed was perpetrated by one who was
jealous or who desired revenge.

LESS MARRIAGES IN
1881 THAN IN 1890

Leap year evidently does not mean
thing to Pine county young women
and Dan Cupid for the first five days
of the new year went by without a
single application being made for a
marriage license in the office of clerk
of court, Portia H. Gum. That old
man depression has been getting the
best of Mr.. Cupid might seem possible
when the figures for 1881 are COM
pared with those of 1890 for in the
year just closed there were 1872 appli-
cations made for marriage licenses
while in 1880 there were 1875 couples
taking out licenses.
The year 1882 is leap year and when
the young ladies begin making use of
their privilege there will possibly be
a noticeable increase in the marriage
market.
During the year 1881 there were
eight divorces granted according to

Emil Larson of Sandstone, Cele-

The birthday anniversary of Emil
Larson of Sandstone, who was so
years old Monday, Jan. 4, was cele-
brated Sunday afternoon at the home
of his son and daughter-in-law, Mr..
and Mrs. Albin Larson, in the Quarry
city, where the senior Larson has
made his home for several years since
the passing of his wife.
About fifty people were present, in
Guiding the six children, their wives
and husbands, grandchildren and one
great grandchild. The afternoon was
spent in visiting and recalling re-
miniscences back from the days when
the Larson family came from Sweden
direct to Pine county and took up
farming north of Askov, then known
as Partridge. Songs and recitations
were also. given by some CT the grand
children. A picture which adOrns the
wall of the Albin Larson home shows

A BANDIT GANG
LOOTS CAMBRIDGE
Six Men Stage Daring Robbery in
ISanti County Town; Slug the
Night Marshal.

Using practically the same methods
as were used by like number in a
raid at Pine River one night last
week, six bandits slugged the night
marshal, kidnapped him and another
resident and escaped after making
raids on four stores in Cambridge,
As miles from here, early Tuesday
morning. 1t is estimated that about
$4,000 in merchandise together with
S165 in cash was obtained in the rob-
berry. Besides the merchandise the
robbers stole a car best suited to their
needs from Gillespie Auto Co. and
loaded the loot into it and their own
car and made their getaway on No 5
toward the Twin Cities. After they
had driven about % miles, they re-
leased the night marshal and garage
attendant after they had kidnapped
them.
A department store, drug store, gro
Gerry store and auto company were the
objects of their attack and suffered
loss of merchandise and cash. The
cash was taken from the safes after
the combinations had been broken by
sledge hammer.
1t was when they entered the cloth
ing store near the end of their raid
that the outlaws touched off a burglar
alarm. One of the party urged his
companions to beat it," and this
brought a retort from another ad-
monishing him not to be yellow. After
this they finished their work of car
rying out merchandise and loading it
into their car before speeding out of
town to escape in the darkness of the
early morning hours.
The marshal, Frank Whitney, was
slugged as he approached the garage
after hearing the sound of breaking
glass. He, together with Mark Dun
ming, garage attendant, were the ones
taken for the ride and released 25
miles from town.
The burglar alarm did not draw
any response since the telephone oper-
ator who lives over the department
store that was entered, did not
hear it and others did not pay any
attention to it in view of the fact
that it had been accidentally touched
off at various times before.
