To Eradicate Red SorreiI.
Prairie Farmer, 10

The best means of eradicating sorrel is
manuring and good cultivation. On soils
natural to it, it is sometimes difficult. On
such soils, once it gets lOdgment, it will
spread, since it starts readily both from its
seeds and little dubious roots.

How the Austrian Emperor Fell In
Love NJ Elrst Sight.

lie married Princess who was almost a
shepherdess. She lived in the mountains
with her sisters and an old bonhomme of
father, kind OF country gentleman, who
dressed himself Ill coarse cloth and his
daughters in wool. She had not been
brought up for the throne, and it was one
of her sisters that they designed for the
youthful Emperor. Francis Joseph arrived
one evening in hunting dress at his future
father-in-law's, on the banks OF the Lake Of
Trsun. As he was chatting before the
house with the four youry girls, who are
stree become, one the Queen Of Naples, an
other the Princess of Thurm and Taxis, a
third the Counts IS of Turni, and the fourth
the Duchess d'Alencson-of sudden he
saw detach itself on the skirts OF a neigh
boring wood, that the setting sun was
streaking in red and yellow like stained
glass in the windows OF church, the adj
mirable form of a young girl all in white,
followed by an enormous dog. The sun set
her dress sparkling in thousand points of
light, and sire came forward in the halo of
an apparition, her magnificent hair stream
ing over her shoulders. 1t was the Princess
Elizabeth; at sight of her the heart of the
Emperor felt itself fixed. Some days after
ward at ball at Ischl he passed almost all
the evening in dancing with the lady he
called ''the fairy OF the forest y and he
marked his preference publicly.

The Italian government, in response to

A correspondent at Lindsburg sends us
the details Of fatal shooting ARRAY that
occurred in Mcpherson county last Mon
day. A man named Faulkner, who, II Is
said, formerly lived in Missouri, was max
ing disturbance on the streets in Linds-
burg, and the constable named Samuel
Rhodes, demonstrated with him. Faulkner
then became very abusive and profane.
During the controversy Rhodes drew his
pistol, and saying, Il will keep you quiet
for an hour or two" instantly fired at q dis
lance of three feet, the bullet entering the
head Just above the inner angle of the left
eye. As soon as the fatal shot was fired,
Rhodes claimed that it was an accident, and
that his intentions were merely to arrest him
and not to shoot him.
He offered to give himself up, but there
was nobody to take charge of him. After 4
lapse of about thirty minutes tom the time
Faulkner was killed, Rhodes went to q
place where he had $500 OH deposit, drew
the money out, and mounting his horse
told the bystanders he was going over to
MCPHERSON Center, the county seat, to give
himself up.
Since then the sheriff OF the county has
arrived at Lindsburg, and reported that
nothing had been seen Of Rhodef. 1t Is
now believed that the constable took French
leave.

UNITY OF EFFORT WANTED.

Among the many things that would per.
nlanently benefit Bozeman, none would
seem to promise better results than an or
ganization among the merchants and bust
ness men of the town. That such an Or
ganization is needed. is felt every day, and
steps should be taken Immediately towards
forming one. What is everybody's bust
ness is nobody's business is IN old and
true saying. and one the truth Of which
we see every day. For instance, the petit
ton being circulated in the county to-day
is not meeting with the signatures OF the
people us it should, simply because there
is no one to take hold Of the matter and
push it. The same may be said Of the ne
cessity for some protection from fire for
our town. There is not q person in town
but is in favor of adopting some means for
protection. and yet no one does anything.
They all wait for some one to jump the
fence, and then they are willing to follow.
If we had an organization in town. COM
posed Of the business men, which held its
meetings. say, twice month. there would
be many subjects brought before it. which
if acted on at the time. would result to the |
decided benefit of the town and county. |
The court house petition could be taken up
and men appointed to circulate tiff neces-
sary, money could be raised to pay them.
steps could be taken to protect the town
rom the direful calamity OF fire. Certain
members Of the organization, or all Of
hem, for that matter. could be appointed
police force to protect goods removed
rom burning building, and committees
holld be appointed to obtain such an out
it as the meeting may decide on and at
end to other work that may be delegated
hem. True, all this work may be done in '
ne or two public meetings, but as other
ubjects Of importance to the town and s
ounty may come up at any time, it will
e best to form an organization, before /
'hich all subjects can be brought in proper t
hape and disposed of at the time and to !
he satisfaction Of at least majority of t
lose Interested =
