nation as TO ascertaining the age
OF a hore after 1t has passed the
ninth year, which was quite new
to us. and will be, we are sure, to
most OF our readers. 1t is this:
After the horse Is nine years old
a wrinkle comes In the eyelid, at
the upper corner OF the lower lid
and every year thereafter he has
one well-defined wrinkle for each
year of his age over nine. If for
instance, horse has three wrink-
els, he il twelve If four, thirteen.
Add the number of wrinkles to
nine and you will always get at it.

Sixty-four years had she walked

Sixty-four years had they dwelt
under the same sorrows of life;
together rejoiced In the prosperity
of their sons and daughters, and
now she has left him alone. No
wonder he forgot. Her loving
hands had SO long cared for him,
for he had been the feebler of the
two.
Until death do us part,' said
the marriage service that had unit

Death had parted them, but the
love still survived. Tenderly.had
he cared for her all these years,
and now tenderly did he watch
the making of the last bed for this
still loved wife.
He had bravely breasted the
storm of life with her by his side,
but now that she had gone he could
not live, and in a few days they
laid him by her side.

Ole Bull, the famous Norwegian violin
list, died at Bergen, Norway, his birth
place, on August 18th. OF his earlier his
tory no very authentic accounts are obtain
able. His father it is said attempted to
ccerce him into the study of theology and
would not permit a musical instrument
about the house. This foolish treatment
only gave a more decisive character to the
genius of the boy, and while at the univer-
sity of Christiana he found an opportunity
to play at a concert, where his skill excited
so much enthusiasm that he shortly after
was offered the situation of musical direc.
tor of the city. In 1929 he went to Ger.
many to study under Spohr, an eminent
German musical composer and violinist,
but was SO coldly received that he COM
menced studying law at Gottingen. lie
was subsequently at Minden. whence, in
consequence of duel, he fed 10 Paris in
1881. An unsuccessful attempt 10 drown
himself in the Seine was the turning point
in his life. He thereafter acquired the pat
ronage of lady of rank, and rapidly rose
to fame as violinist. He purchased in
Pennsylvania 1874, 900 acres of excellent
ground, and founded a colony of Scandina
vians. This turned ont complete failure,
and b. was again compelled TO resume his
violin. Since then he has followed his
profession with varying success in this

Notes by Tribune Tramp.
Herman, the only town in Grant county
of any importance, is located on the St.
Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba r. II. 1t
is surrounded by rich farming country,
on the west stretching out thirty miles to
Lade Traverse, on the east eighteen miles
TO the Pomme de Terre river and on the
north and south many miles The coun-
try is being settled up rapidly. The town
of Delaware, we venture to say, is one of
the finest townships in the state, the prai.
rie slightly rolling and settled mostly by
Yankees who have the push and energy to
make splendid farms. They have Meth.
edist society and recently erected nice
chapel and have preaching, prayer meet
ing and Sabbath school regularly. One of
its most enterprising citizens is Mr. n M.
Prescott, formerly of Dakota Co., who
brought with him So head of choice cattle,
amcng them several head of thorough bred
Jerseys. He has established a creamery
and is making as choice butter as can be
had in the east. He is unable to supply
the great demand for table use in his inn
mediate vicinity.
Now / wish to Tell you what Herman
has, we will start at the upper end Of
Broadway. They have three elevators
one of which is new and of recent style
of architecture. 1t has an able local pa

An article which appeared in last weeks
issue, in regard to the reported condition
of the Connemara emigrants, has called
forth vigorous letter from Bishop Ireland
which we publish in another column. In
regard to the statements made in the Tri-
bune we would say our information was
received from residents of Graccville. from
some of the colonists themselves, and from
current rumors. In each instance it was
openly claimed that the people were lilly
clothed, poorly housed, without work, in
need of food, and no provision had been
made for their support during the coming
winter. Much indignation was expressed
and no little loud and forcible talk, not
very fiattering to the management, was in
dulged in This being the case, we felt it
our duty to bring the matter publicly before
the proper persons, for the purpose of
hearing both sides.
The facts as known to us are briefly as
follows: Some of the immigrants are here
at work; they are industrious and appa-
rently ready and anxious to earn Il living
andsupport their families. They stated po-
sitively that they could find no work in the
colony, as it is newly settled community,
the farms are small and but little help re-
quired, one man claiming to have found
but eight days work since his arrival. Re-
sponsible parties from that vicinity, stated
publicly that there was much distress and
poverty among the colonists, and our citi,
zens have been called upon to provide food,
clothing, shelter and employment for the
number now here. The indignation of our
citizens toward the management was caused
principally by the statements of the settlers,
and because it was feared the town would
be over-run with an army of paupers. The
people were naturally apprehensive, feel.
ing that if there Was want and distress now,
what would the condition of these settlers
be when the rigorous winter weather was
upon us. We have seen it here last season
when even money could not purchase fuel
The foregoing is brief statement of tho
present status of affairs, and the apprehen
sion of the people in this vicinity will moi
be lessened by the christian like ultimatun
of starvation to the lazy ones, and for one
we think, that if some of these settlers arr
too lazy and indolent to work, they should
be taken care of by the management ant
not set adrift as scourge on the communi
ty at large.
We are informed that an investigation
as to the condition of these people, ha
been ordered, and hope that it will be tn
means of at least dispelling the fears enter
tanned by the people hereabouts, caused b,
the statements of these settlers themselves
and by the reports and rumors in circula
ton. In conclusion, we will say that W
are glad Bishop Ireland has taken the oc
casion to look into the matter, and we d
not doubt but that when the true situatio
of affairs is known, it will be found that, a
usual, either malice or rumor has magn
fined, distorted and made the actual cond
ton of things appear much worse tina
they really are. Although we must sd
that the recent influx of more of these pee
J pie, mention of which is elsewhere made
looks us if our information was not altt
gether false nor malicious.

The COnncmara COIonists.

EDITOR OF MORRIS TRIBUNE
A note appeared in your last issue, con-
veying to your readers the impression that
the Cennemara colonists are exposed to
starvation, and that no provision has been
made to carry them through the approach
ing winter beg to state that, work, under
my own direction, is and will be offered in
GraceYille to all the Connemara colonists
This one fact shows that they cannot be in
want, and that your informants have either
misunderstood. or willfully misrepresented
the situation. AS to what will become Of
them in the future, it will be time enough
to condole with them, when they will be
found to be actually, without fault of
theirs, reduced to suffering. Upon me
rests the responsibility of having brought
these people to the country, and l will be
fully prepared to bear the consequences.
1t is not necessary for me to say in detail
what will do; but this much promise:
that those who work win not suffer. Those
who do not work, and those only, SO far as
am concerned, will be left to starve
The Connemara colonists are as rule
good, industrious people. Unfortunately
few of them are not as well disposed as
their companions. They would desire to
live without work, and this will not al.
low
If several of them have gone to Morris,
it was at the invitation of a Morris con
tractor, whose letter to them myself read,
offering to them higher wages than they
could obtain in Graceville.

might makes right" is the motto of
the greedy politicians of this senatorial and
representative district, and. although Ger
tain counties are entitled to the honor of
naming the nominees, yet it is not at all
probable, judging from the past, that the
action of the conventions will be guided
by sense of justice, in fact we may safe
ly say, that, the same mean selfishness
heretofore displayed, will again create
trouble and discord. 1t is almost a for.
gone conclusion that the conventions will
only thicken the muddle, and it would be
as well perhaps, if they were not called
but instead, let the aspirants, one and all
go in on the free for-all, go-as you please
plan, then each one would have fair and
equal chance, and all the trouble would be
among the candidates themselves. Every
county has candidate and as they all con
slider that they should have the representa-
tive, what use is there in going through
the farce of a nomntion, when it is almos
an assured fact that some of the counties
will not abide by the decision of the con
ventions, they never have done SO as yet
and hence it is very unlikely they will d.
so now. Give us free fight, let US eacl
have our own choice and don't make BAG
matter worse, as will surely be done if til,

The workmen engaged in boring the
artesian we'll near the depot in Red Wing
struck flowing water last Thursday after
noon at the depth of 1870 feet. The flow
was not strong enough to suit, however,
and the drilling was continued until Saiur-
day noon, the flow of water increasing as
the drill went down. The total depth of
the hole is about $50 feet, and the water
rises above the top of the pipe, is beautiful
and clear in appearance, and soft enough
for all practical purposes. 1t is estimated
that the water flows from the well at the
rate of about 600 gallons minute or about

During the past week. special care has
been taken to ascertain from reliable
sources, the exact average yield per acre,
as shown by threshing, in this and the sev'
eral adjoining counties. Our information
is furnished by farmers, and is not guess
work, the total yield from the threshing
machine, and number of acres being given.
The result is not as anticipated; the high
est average does not exceed fourteen bush
els per acre, Willie the lowest falls to a
fraction less than nine. The Tribune has
always contcnded that the average yield
was largely overestimated. These figure:
show that we were correct.
