Racing for a Grass. n idowship.

A novel and exciting race took place
between married couple at this place
few days ago. For obvious reasons
we shall suppress their names.
They had been on visit to some
friends, some seven miles northwest of
Pella, and got up quarrel between
them, Just as such things commonly
happen. He is one of those kind of
fellows that when he says thing he
means it and sticks to t,right or wrong
She, masculine, healthy, and we'll
prOportioned female, does not believe
in saying yes when she means no. So
for time they had it up and down
with words. Their eyes flashed fire,
and it looked as if there would he bat
tie, when the woman proposed they had
better settle their quarrel by running a
race to Pella whoever should he the
first at their residence, all the property
would belong to, and the loser was to
walk quietly out and vamOose the
ranch" never TO trouble the winner
again. The man, confident in himself
as a pedestrian, agreed to this, and
proposed that they should start at that
time. He threw off his coat, she tight
ened her corSets and otherwise prepar,
Ell herself tor the trial of speed and en-.
durance, ana then they started Adam
took the shortest way by cutting across
farms. Eve kept the main thorough
fare. We did not witness the race con
Sequently we cannot say how they step
ped. but the result was in favor of tho
woman who had a nIaip vel.
