EXTRA!
Farmer Is Killed By Dynamite
Kiel—(Special)—Albert E. Schulz, 59, Route 1, Elkhart Lake, was fatally injured on his farm home Friday afternoon when two sticks of dynamite that had failed to explode went off as he was inspecting them. He and his hired man, Henry Luedke, had been blasting stumps in a field at the time of the accident. Coroner Harry Heiden said today that the dynamite had two fuses, and that one must have ignited while the other did not. After the blast Mr. Schulz arose, walked 20 feet, and then dropped over dead, according to Dr. Heiden. Death resulted from chest and other internal injuries caused by flying roots. The farm on which the accident occurred is situated in the town of Herman eight miles east of Kiel and one and one-half miles northeast of Ada.
Mr. Schulz was born August 2, 1877, on the farm homestead where he was killed. He was married to Miss Sophie Schneider of the town of Herman, and the couple have always lived on the homestead.
Survivors are the widow; seven daughters, Mrs. August Bedow of West Bend, Mrs. Carl Johnson and Mrs. Henry Wahlgren of Milwaukee, Mrs. Albrecht Meise of Kohler, and Mrs. Waldmar Kinzel at home, Miss Ruth of Chippewa Falls, and Miss Esther at home; three sons, Paul of the town of Wilson, Arno of Cleveland, and Edmund at home; one sister, Mrs. John Deicher of Hilbert; three brothers, Ernst and Julian of Platte, S. D., and the Rev. William Schulz of Ashley, N. D., and eleven grandchildren.
The body will be taken to the family home on the farm Sunday morning, and funeral services will be Monday at the home and at St. John's Evangelical church at Schwartzwald in the town of Herman. The Rev. William Schulz will officiate and burial will be in the adjoining church cemetery.
