" Grand Meadows, July 15—With wounds which ordinarily would cause instant death to an aged per- son, Mrs. John Wagner, 69, was still living today and authorities hoped she might regain consciousness to tell who crushed her skull with an axe and killed her husband. John Terenden, a relative and neighbor, said the axe used by the murderer was owned by Wagner. Police testified that the person who used the axe knew where to look for it and found it, It was first used to pry open the screen and then swung on the head of the wealthy old people. August Dedloff, a son in law of Wagner, taken into custody at Le- Roy, was still held in jail at Aust- in. Police said he comes of a promi- nent family, but that he was not in good favor with either Wagner's family or his own folks, Dedloff claimed he was in Spring Valley at 9:30 Wednesday nighty the night of the murder. Police have established that it was a fact he was there at that time, but his whereabouts after that hour had not been established. Police believe it is certain the old couple were assault- ed atter 10:00 p. m. Wednesday.

Cannibalistic Sea Gulls, It is not generally realized how great an enemy the sea gull is to smaller biwls. An observer venturss the opin- fon that the renson why small, mi- grants Invariably cross the sea by night is that otherwise they would’ be slmply exterminated by gulls. Some- times it happens that a change in the wind delays the arrival of flights of spring migrants,’ so that they fail to make a landing bifore daylight, Light- house keepers have then witfiessed scenes of. savage slaughter; hundreds of poor, tired, little songsters being hunted down by gulls, seized and de- vouréd, Year by year in England gulls work further and further inland, and in bad weather may be seen’ almost anywhere, even in the Midlands. . Indeed, on one occaslon n number’ were noticed in a flooded meadow near Leamington, a town which claims to be almost the geographical center of England. Fl Y 1Y TS, A Fileld for Profitable Operation.

The cost of labor is low, and the supply of ma- terial incredibly vast. The wax Is made by boiling and steaming the weed. The crude wax is refined and used in making candles, phpnogrnph records, polishes, varnishes and even lincleum. And from the fibrov< waste & good quality of paper Is turued out. THE PIONEER WANT ADY BRING RESULTS | GERMANY SAID TO HAVE ON HAND DEADLY BOMBS (Continuea From Page 1) mite and elektron then fuse together and form an incandescent mass of white-hot metal that will melt its way through armour-plating. Noth- ing can extinguish it. A pinch of the powder igniled on a penknife blade caused the metal to run like candle wax. The poison-gas bomb, even more terrible than the fire bomb, is simply a glass globe, four inches in diam- éter, filled with a dark brown liquid, which, when liberated, generates thousands of cubic feet of deadly gas, Escape from its death-dealing fumes, which are able to penetrite even into cellars, basements and un- derground railways, would be impos- sible. It is stated here that just hefore the armistice the ‘German high com- mand openly boasted that the per- fection of the elektron bomb gave them the means successfully to end the war, British threats of retalia- tion in kind were the only deterrent to the carrying cut.of the boast. England’s Threat “If the English secret service had not discovered that the Germans were making these bombs,” say the public men, now fighting for the re- establishment of Englard’s lost as- cendancy in the air, “London or Paris might have been annihilated by a single flotilla or bombing planes.” “It was only our threat to destroy a German town for every such bomb! dropped in England—and the ability of our air forces - to back up. that threat—that gave us the whip hand.” “Now that our air force has sunk into such dangerous inferiority we no longer have that whip hand. We must lose no-time in regaining it. The nation’s safety demands instant action on-the part of the govérn- ment.” TO GIVE DANCE ‘AT NEW ARMMORY THIS EVENING Dot Van’s orchestra will furnish the music for a dance to be given at the new armory this evening. An enjoyable affair is assured and the public is invited.

EDD BROTHERS ADD LINE _OF GROCERIES TO STORE Edd Brothers, proprictors of the Savo Meat market, have added gro- ceries to their stock upon the request of a number of their regular pat- rons. This firm has installed cabinet counters, displaying samples in front new. shelving and will carry staple and fancy groceries, This store is located next to the Rex theater in the New Nangle building -and pre- senis a véry sanitary appearance. CAR SHORTAGE CALLED INEVITABLE THIS FALL (Continued From P2gn 1) leads to higher prices. This is only natural as prices are determined, not by costs, but by supply and de- mand. : If a city naturally uses 30 car loads of potatoes a day, any day that there is a shortage of anly two or three cars, the price of all po- tatoes in that city goes up. Another day when there is a surplus of only two cars the price of = all potatoes goes dowin. Price is not determined by the total quantity of a product or consumed, but rather by - that sinall ‘percentage of surplus or short- age, A ‘freight congestion this fall would ¥nevitaply lead to a shortage in certain raw materials ‘and mer- chandise -in ‘some localities. As a result these commodities will tem- porarily strengthen in price at these points. Such a result is inevitable. “Strengthening: commodity prices. are often—althos not always—pre- ceeded by strengthening security prices. The stock market usually dis- counts rises in the commodity mar- ket. Thus a congestion of freight might ‘mean both advancing com- modity and security prices. Further- mote, .in the case of a freight con- gestion the railways should tempor- arily, at least, show very handsome earnings. Already the railways are showing very good earnings owing Improved Service Cafe-Parlor-Observation Cars have been added to trains 9 and 31 northbound, and trains 32 and 10 southbound, between St. Paul-Minneapolis-Bemidji Northern Pacific Railway Minnesota and International Railway This is Yellowstone Park’s Big Year Go While Travel Costs are Very Low Phone 82 - it COMES, IN HANDY Keep one of our well made hot water bags in the house and when you need it you will ‘have it. - You can never tell when you will want it for that ache or pain.” Our bags are guaranteed for workmanship and wear.

There are now about sixteen soldiers who take turns at guarding his palace. Around the place has been erected a high barbed-wire fence and in front is a castle-like structure which might be a false front in a musical comedy. In this castle-like . structure whose doors_are studded with great bolts, live the soldiers and there, too. are the offices of the Lord Chamberlain.
