"Man's inhumanity to man" was forcibly illustrated by the management of Wallace Show at Emmetsburg last week. When unloading their cars, one of the men-of-all-work was accidentally killed by the cars running over him. Instead of making arrangements to give the remains a decent burial, the body was left without any care whatever, the management probably supposing that the county would bear the expense. The Palo Alto officials, it appears, did not look at the matter in that light, and instructed County Attorney Davidson to go to Estherville and collect an amount sufficient to pay the expenses. This he proceeded to do, but not until an attachment was sworn out and placed in the hands of the sheriff to serve would the show people pay the bill.
