NARROW ESCAPE FROM DROWNING
Frank Becker, aged 15 and Victor Budnik, aged 11, living in the Seventh Ward 
were playing about the South Side municipal beach Saturday. The old police 
rowboat was on the beach and the lads got into it. Some larger boys, in a spirit 
of mischief pushed them out from the shore and they began to drift out. They 
couldn't swim and had no oars. John Tusil, a fisherman, sighted the boys over 
a mile from shore. The boat was half full of water and a heavy sea was running. 
He got them aboard his fish boat and took their craft in tow. Their help didn't 
come any too soon. The boy whose idea of a joke carries him to a reckless disregard 
of human life is too near the bestial stage to be a safe person for the community 
to permit to run at large.

SISTER COMES WITH TIDINGS, LEARNS PLIGHT
Mrs. C. Budweiser Escapes Death By Gas as Sister Comes to Tell of Death in Family
Tragedy struck with redoubled force at the home of Mrs. Charles Budweiser, 629 
North Fourth Street, early this morning when she was overcome by gas in the 
basement of her home at about the same time that her sister, Mrs. Joseph Beers 
was passing away at Holy Family Hospital, where she had been a patient for some 
time. Her plight was discovered by another sister, Mrs. Edward Carbon who came 
to the home with tidings of the death of their sister.
When first efforts to awaken Mrs. Budweiser proved futile, Mrs. Carbon continued 
her attempts to arouse members of the family until a daughter, Miss Mayme Polifka 
heard her and came downstairs. They sought Mrs. Budweiser and failing to find her 
in her room, went into the basement where they found her upon the floor in a gas 
filled room. Rushing to the outside the daughter enlisted the services of Everett 
McClellan, an employee of the Fischl Dairy Company and he assisted in removing 
the unconscious woman to an upper floor where Doctor Reis, hastily summoned to 
the scene, succeeded in reviving her.
Relatives who were at the scene shortly afterward said they believed that Mrs. 
Budweiser was overcome when she went to rekindle a fire or to check it. A gas jet 
on a plate in the basement was believed to have been partly opened and when Mrs. 
Budweiser was overcome she fell against it, breaking off the jet to result in a 
considerable amount of gas filling the room. It was not believed that she was in 
the room for a considerable period of time or she could not have survived. While 
Mrs. Budweiser was unable to tell the cause of the mishap today, her condition is 
not regarded as particularly serious, the attending physician declared. She is a 
widow, 43 years of age and lives with a daughter.

GETS MEDAL FOR GOOD SERVICE
J.H.C. Buerstattte Honored by Government for Work on U.S.S. Resolute
IN LATE WAR WITH SPAIN
Resolute and Crew of Which Buerstatte Was Member Participated With Honor in Battles - Saratoga and Manzanillo
Distinguished service which he rendered s one of the staff of electricians on board the United States gun boat Resolute during the late Spanish American War, especially during the battles of Santiago de Cuba and Manzanillo, has gained recognition from the government for Julius Buerstatte of this city, who on Saturday, was in receipt of a bar and medal commemorating his services. 
The medal is of heavy bronze with two bars and flag attachment and on one side is the engraving of Admiral Sampson in bold relief while on the other is an illustration of three men of war or gunners in the act of firing their pieces. The name of Electrician Buerstatte, together with the battles and dates of the engagement appear also, the whole being a very pretty ornament. The medal was struck off by Philadelphia mint according to an act of Congress and the entire crew of the Resolute, to number of 125 men and officers are recipients of the gifts.
Mr. Buerstatte enlisted as an electrician immediately after the outbreak of the war and was assigned to the Resolute which at once took an active part in the early hostilities and later in the battle of Santiago and Manzanillo near Cuba, he served throughout the war and was discharged with the rest of the crew with honor on Nov. 19, 1898, after peace had been declared.  The battle of Manzanillo on August 12, 1898 was the last battle of the war and enjoyed the unique record of being the battle fought after peace had been declared between the warring countries. 
During the engagement, the Resolute being of light draught, entered the harbor of Manzanillo under cover of darkness and led in the attack on the armaments of the port and two Spanish gun boats which lay inside. Oblivious to the fact that the signal "cease firing" had been flying from the flag ship of the fleet for some time, she continued peppering away at a range of half a mile and probably did a considerable lot of damage. During the attack, Electrician Buerstatte assisted in manning one of the guns on the forward deck, a duty assigned to his division while battles were in progress. The Resolute was one of the best of the little fighting dogs of the Navy and won many honors through the short war. Before the battles of Santiago and Manzanillo, she, together with the Newark, Terror and others of her class, assisted in maintaining the blockade. That the government recognizes the services which the little craft gave during the war is apparent in the act which gives to the crew, late though, nevertheless deserved recognition.

WEARY BATTLE AGAINST DEATH ENDS LAST NIGHT
MRS. CHARLES BUERSTATTE SUCCUMBS AFTER MONTHS OF SUFFERING
Death proved the victor in the long battle waged by Mrs. Charles Buerstatte 
for life and at 4 o'clock last evening, at her home on Franklin street, she 
succumbed to the ravages of disease which for months had held her in its 
grasp, and had sapped vitality, and left her but a shadow of her former self. 
Mrs. Buerstatte's death was calm and peaceful and she passed from earth with 
a smile on her lips though a few minutes previous she had expressed to 
relatives at her bedside her desire to live. Mrs. Buerstatte's death occurred 
at the home of her aunt, Mrs. Edward Carus, Franklin street.
Announcement of the death of Mrs. Buerstatte, while expected, will be received 
with keen regret by a large circle of friends who loved her, and the sympathy 
of the community is manifest and extended to those who mourn her untimely 
demise. A husband and one son, Edward, aged five survive.
Mrs. Buerstatte, nee Lillian Westphal, was born in this city Nov. 20, 1882, 
and had spent her life here. She was married Sept. 21, 1908. For a year or 
more Mrs. Buerstatte had been a sufferer and during the past four months had 
been confined to her bed and no hope could be given that she would live. The 
end came at the close of day yesterday.
Besides her husband and son, Mrs. Buerstatte is survived by two brothers, 
William Westphal of Two Rivers and Walter Westphal of Waukesha and one sister, 
Mrs. R. Sweeting, this city.

Richard Buerstatte, Druggist Here For Many Years, Dead
Prominent in Civic And Business Life
Richard T. Buerstate, (photo) president of the F.C. Buerstatte Drug company 
here, who for nearly 50 years had been prominent in the business and civic 
life of Manitowoc, died at his home, 1208 South Seventh street at 1:45 a.m. 
Today.
The widely known druggist was 70 years of age.
Although he had been active, along with his son, Richard Jr. (Ted), in the 
management of the store at Jay and South Eighth streets until the past July 
when he submitted to an operation, Mr. Buerstatte had been in failing health 
for some time.
Funeral services will be held at the Wesley Methodist church here at 2 p.m. 
Monday with burial in Evergreen cemetery.
A son of the late Frederick C. and Augusta Gennrich Buerstatte, the deceased was 
born in this city in 1878. Following his graduation with honors from the old 
southside high school in 1893, Mr. Buerstate went to work for his father in the 
drug store which the latter had founded here.
Studied in Father's Store
It was in his father's store that Mr. Buerstatte studied pharmacy for several 
years, receiving his registered pharmacist certificate in 1899. Following the 
death of the elder Mr. Buerstate in 1916, his sons, Richard and Charles bought 
out the interests of other heirs and became sole owners of the business and of 
the building housing the drug store. In 1917 the business was incoporated under 
the name of F.C. Buerstatte company with Richard the president and Charles vice-
president. Charles died here in April, 1947. A brother-in-law, George Hallander, 
later joined the corporation as secretary-treasurer, and has continued as head 
of the electrical department.
In 1933, upon his graduation from the University of Wisconsin school of pharmacy, 
Richard Jr. (Ted) became associated with his father in the drug store. He is now 
the third generation of the Buerstatte family to operate the store and will 
continue in that capacity.
Church Organist 50 Years
Always active in community life, particularly along musical lines, Mr. Buerstatte 
served as the organist at the Wesley Methodist church for about 50 years and will 
be recalled for the part he played in the local portrayal of the production, 
"H.M.S. Pinafore" at the old Turner Opera House here in 1908. He began his musical 
contribution to his church when a boy of 12 years.
He was a member of the Wisconsin Pharmaceutical association and of the National 
Association of Retail Druggists. Locally Mr. Buerstatte was a past president of 
the Manitowoc Rotary club.
He joined the local national guard company as a private in 1898, rising through the 
ranks to become a captain of the Manitowoc unit in 1908. In the examination for 
captain, he scored 99.6 out of a possible 100, the highest ever recorded here. He 
resigned from the guard in 1910.
Survivors Listed
In 1910 Mr. Buerstatte married the former Miss Della Maker of this city. She died 
in 1926 and in 1934 he married the former Mrs. Florence Hooker, also of Manitowoc.
Mrs. Buerstatte survives, along with the son, Richard Jr.; a daughter, Mr. H.J. 
Murphy of Minneapolis; a brother, Julius Buerstatte of Manitowoc, who founded the 
original electrical department in the rear of his father's first drug store here; 
three sisters, Mrs. L.A. Huppert of this city, Mrs. J.V. Romoser of Fort Atkinson 
and Mrs. A.T. Baker of St. Paul; and two grandchildren.
The body may be viewed at the Urbanek and Schlei funeral home from 7 p.m. Saturday 
until 10 a.m. Monday when it will be removed to the Wesley Methodist church where 
it will lie in state until the time of services at 2 p.m.

Buerstatte Drugs Help Keep Folks in Peak Condition 
MANITOWOC-The little city of Manitowoc was a husky fellow of some 30 summers 
in the year 1872. But its peoples were in need of medication for ills which 
ranged from the common cold to whooping cough. 
Frederick C. Buerstatte had always wanted to be a wagon maker but because of 
injuries suffered in the great war (Civil War) decided to study the art of 
pharmacy.
The elder Buerstatte took off for school. When he returned in 1872 he opened 
a drug store at corner of Eighth and Jay streets at the City of Manitowoc.
Today, Buerstatte's Drug Store at 909 S. Eighth St., has been operated by a 
member of the Buerstatte family for more than 89 years.
Takes Over 
Richard T. Buerstatte, son of the late Frederick, took over the business and 
continued to build a huge stock and an ever increasing number of friends.
Later, Richard T. Buerstatte Jr., a grandson of the founder, took over 
operation of the huge drug store which has occupied the same location for 
nearly 80 years.
Richard T. Buerstatte Sr. died in 1948. He had served the needs of the 
community in capacity of pharmacist for more than 50 years. The founder, 
Frederick C. Buerstatte, had been in the business for more than 44 years. 
In 1919, one of the pioneer business establishments in this area was 
incorporated. 
In 1933, Buerstatte Jr. joined the firm. That same year he had been graduated 
from the University of Wisconsin School of pharmacy and has been with the 
company for more than 27 years.

It's another example of a family-owned and operated business "progressing 
with Manitowoc."

Searching for fireworks and wandering away further from home than was her wont, 
Helen, the six year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.H.C. Buerstatte gave her 
parents an anxious two hours last evening when she disappeared from home and for

ALFRED BUGS

LIFELESS BODY OF A. BUGS IS FOUND TODAY
Long Illness Ends in Death For Resident Who Came From Germany 
Five Years Ago
An illness of several years' duration and which caused him to give 
up his occupation as a fireman about four weeks ago, was believed 
responsible for the death of Alfred Bugs, 56 year old resident of 
the city. The man's lifeless body was found in the chicken-coop of 
the rear of his son's home at 1322 S. Fifteenth street where the 
man made his home. No inquest was deemed necessary by the coroner 
after reading the contents of a note left by the man, the note 
requesting that his body not be brought into the house.
Discovery of the death was made by a son, Eric, when he went to look 
for his father shortly before 1 o'clock this afternoon. Police and 
the corner were notified but nothing could be done for him as life 
was already extinct. At the request of the family, the body was taken 
to the Vogelsang funeral home at Eighth and Marshall streets.
Born in Germany, Bugs came to this country about five years ago and 
has been a resident of this city since that time. Fellow employes at 
the Hamilton Flowers, Inc., where he gave up his work several weeks 
ago spoke feelingly of the kindliness of the man when informed of his 
demise.
In addition to his invalid widow, he is survived by four children, 
Eric and Mrs. William Schuchnect of Manitowoc, Mrs. Otto Nowak of 
Sheboygan and Mrs. Hans Kummerfeld, Two Rivers. Funeral arrangements 
have not been made.

Death of Mrs. Bulthaupt, wife of Henry Bulthaupt, resident on Franklin Street,

*********
Suspected Case of Poisoning.
The sudden death of Mrs. Bultauft (sic), of this city on Friday last, has been 
the cause of considerable excitement, and given rise to some dark surmises as 
to its cause. Her usual good health taken into consideration along with some 
other circumstances which we will not now mention, led her friends to believe 
that all was not right, and consequently they insisted upon a post mortem 
examination being made. The doctors who made the post mortem examination say 
that no evidences of disease of any kind could be found that would cause her 
death. Her stomach and its contents have been preserved and will be sent if 
they have not already been, to an analytical chemist for analysis.

Going by the date of these birth records, Apr. 8, 1882 would bring
Rose to be the age of 14 years and 9 months at the time of death.
