HUNTING ACCIDENT
TAKES GIRLS LIFE
AT LUCAN SUNDAY
Ruth Wegner, s, is Victim of
Tragedy When Gun Fires
Accidentally

Ruth Wegner, eight-year-old Lucan
girl, died late Sunday afternoon from
injuries received when a gun which
her father was removing from their
car discharged, striking the child in
the face. 1t was the first tragedy re-
ported in this section during the
hunting season.
The girl is the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. George Wegner. Mr.. Wegner,
a carpenter, and his daughter were
driving near Lucan when they noticed
some pheasRnts near the road. He

cident, about $50 p. m.
Funeral services were held We'd
nesday at p. m. at the house and

1882 Levy Is $24,6O0; Bond
and Interest Fund Cut
Is Biggest Made
WATER FUND PAYS BONDS
Small Savings Made in Road
and Bridge, Common,
Library Funds

The tax levy for Redwood Falls for
1882 will be $3,725 lower than 1881
it was decided Monday night at a
special meeting of the council at the
city hall. All members of the board
were present.
After pairing money from the bonds
and interest, common, road and
bridge and library funds, city heads
set the levy for the year at $24,600
as compared with $2S,325 in 1881 and
$50, 700 in 1880.
The bulk of the saving was made
on the bonds and interest fund which
in 1881 was $11,175 and was set at
$3.50 for this year The common
fund was cut from $1O,50O to 10000;
road and bridge fund from $500 to
$4,000; and library fund from $1,000
to $2,400.
These savings are not expected to
result in material reduction in the
mill rate since the assessed valuation
Of the city has been reduced and
mill levy will produce less this year
than in other years. The mill rate for
1881 was 23.5. The band fund which
realized $1,000 from one mill tax
in other years will receive about
81, 1000 this year.
The council was able to reduce the
bond and interest fund because 81 500
bonds which come due next year on
the water works can be paid from
money accumulated the last two
years in the water department. Few
repairs on equipment and a saving in
pumping bills resulted in a surplus.
The council decided to use the money
saved to pay the bonds.
