                   ANTON FINNEMANN, who came from Germany
                 and located on a farm in Luxemberg, Stearns
                 county, in 1889, died Tuesday afternoon at
                 2 o'clock after a lingering illness. He was
                 79 years of age.
                   The remains have been taken to the FINNEMANN

                 Saturday morning with burial following in the
                 family lot of Calvary cemetery.
                   Mr. FINNEMANN was a member of the Holy Name
                 society of the Cathedral. 
                   The former Luxumberg resident was born in
                 Shanefeld, Germany, in 1849 and emigrated to
                 America in 1869, locating on a farm near 
                 Luxemberg, where in 1876 he was married to

                 removed to Maine Prairie where the family lived
