A RACE FOR A WIDow-A correspondent
writes to the Maukato Mimi. Union of WI
dow who resides in certain town IN Wlnona
CO.. who had been wooing two young strlpllngs,
the one ten the other eleven years. her Junior.
Both the lads happened to meet the lady the
same time, and both were on the errand OF de-
Gliding upon the day for celebrating the nup-
tuals, as each had the encouragement to be-
heye himself the favored sutton. The widow
herself was undetermined, aud a scene OF tears
gave monetary relief to the heart-throb-
bings of the two young lovers. Finally she
chose the younger Of the two, and they parted
torthe night. 10 the morning this discarded
lover bethought himself Of his photograph and AZ
ring, still in the possession Of the lady. tie
went to the lady to obtain them, and again
sought favor in her eyes. She yielded, ana
promised If he should get his license hrst she
would marry him. He left on the afternoon
train for Winona to procure the license, ana
noticed his rival on board, who was on the same
errapd, but evidently knew nothing of the new
bargain. AS soon as the train arrived the low
er who held the latest promise rushed tor the
clerk 5 office and obtained his license, and Just
as he was retiring the rival entered and appil-
ed for a. license to marry the same woman.
Our hero who bad obtained the license was
bound to press his advantage, and instead OF
waiting for the morning train which would
bear his rival home, he footed it home through
the mud the same night, and secured his prize
the next morning by marrying her.
