Death fudge clifford.

From Detroit Post and Tribune.
The principal events in the life of
Nathan Clifford, associate justice Of the
supreme court of the United States,
whose death is announced are briefly as
follows: He was born at Rumney,N. H.,
August 10, 1903, and was educated at
Haverhill academy, and the Hampton
literary institution; studied law and
after being admitted to the bar, removed
to Maine in 1927. In that state he was a
member of the.legislature, speaker of the
house and attorney general, and was a
member of congress for Maine from 1889
to 1S43. In 1916 he was appointed attOr-
ney general of the United States, and in
1877 went as commissioner to Mexico,
and after peace was declared became a
minister to that country. Returning, he
resumed the practice of law in Maine,
and in 1858 was placed on the supreme
bench by President Buchanan, where he
has since remained. He had been I'M
fitted for work for some time by soften
ing of the brain, and for the last few
days his death has been almost mOmen-
tarily expected.

angel must have been watching her very
closely just then, for before jim could
stop her she ran out crying jOyfully,
"here it is, Daddy Carter, we've found 1t
right on the gravel walk, so don't feel
bad; we meant to wait all the time till
you came back"
How the poor old man grasped the key
with the tears rolling from his eyes and
saying, "WhOse little girl may you be?"
gently placing his hand on Sallie's head.
"Come in out of the rain and tell me who
you are?"
"Oh, sir, please" began Sallie, quite
beside herself, "but there's Jim as has no
home neither, and he's been kind to me,
SO If you don't care If bring him too
maybe he'd not feel so bad.,'
So both children entered clean, COM
Portable lodging for the first time in
their lives, and Daddy Carter suddenly
found the house growing brighter for
having two young voices in it, and after
hearing Sallies story discovered how
much in want he was of little helper
now he was old; so Sallie and Jim stay
ed to help the old man until they grew
into manhood and wOmanhood, and then
they laid their old friend away in his
last home, and the boy and girl who were
saved from sorrow and trouble by Sallie's
honesty learned to thank the dear
Heavenly Father for putting good
thought into the little beggar girls
heart; and so it is, dear children, with
every one who yields not to temptation;
you may be sure God never fOrgets the
least little one tries to do right, and he
Is always watching to help us if we will
only try, too.

Coefeop0ndonoo o1 tAe 0Ax8TTD.
The State of Minnesota possesses the
widest range Of Theological features. Ito
rocks show nearly ell the mineral changes
that have characterized the known strata
Of Tie earsh's crust, and nearly Ill the
esyssasline and noa-crystalline conditions
and variations that are to be found in the
United States. Owing 70 this great range
IN their natural history. the study Of the
stzssa becomes Of great interest and value.
This 10 true both in the economic sense
and In scientific point of view.
The object Of this short sketch IL to
notice IL strata here 1t our own village.
The pssvailiae characteristics of the
rocks hsge sre gnsiss, granite and horn
blonde schist. (The term granite 10 used
only In the seass Of ito popular meaning.
viz, granular.) In 1877 the writer made
numerous observations Of the stratas be-
tween New Ulm and this village, - far
- STREAMS aad spesss weaad permit. The
rocAe us and neaf Redwood have under
goae . great chemical change. They
have. 20 large extent. been transformed
10 . soft earthly or clayey mass resem-
bling kaolin. and ~ far as can be judged.
this decomposition reaches down some
twenty or thirty feet. The decomposition
Of the granite At this place is very notice
able, owing to its yellow color-so made
by long exposure.
The most important exposure here per
tanning to coal is found in the cretacious.
the most noticeable appearing below the
falls and on some farms about two and
one-half miles from the village. This
cretaceous formation contains beds of
Ignite clay or shale containing carbonized
wood, or charcoal, in two forms, viz.
pulverized. and in compact Jumps like
that which was brought from the farm Of
J. J. Coyle. resembling camel coal.
There is said to be q similar coaley layer
near Fort Ridegly, where explorations for
forty feet have been made, but without
success.
From all the evidence thus far cleaned
in this State. the geological stratas have
forbidden the finding of coal, and more
particularly is 1t true of this place. The
cretaceous is 30 very shallow. and the
Ignite beds very rarely extend beyond q
few feet in depth, so that for practical
purposes they are . failure. That coal
exists below these measures. that we can
not see. is only hope, and cannot be
sustained by evidences taken from coun
tries where coal is extensively mined, and
where abundant evidence is at hand fol
studying the coal measures. 1t is posi-
BILE for State to possess the richest min.
erals, but at the same time have no coal
of any practical value. Very frequently
some one. in digging = well. finds pieces
of "stone coal, or again may find them
scattered over the prairie. The origin Of
these can be traced to the beds spoken OF
above. for they were plowed out by the
ice sheet as it moved over the surface.
OCCASIONAL.

Nelson Orndorff, of Glenville, Freeborn
county. who came through Redwood Falls
this week on his way to Otter Tail coun-
ty, tells of game which he claims was
played upon him by two citizens of this
place, that would be worthy of profess
sional sharpers. He says that after his
arrival here on Monday evening he offered
his team and wagon for $500. A man well
known in the community made q propo-
sition to trade him notes on parties in
Renvillc county for the outfit. Orndorf
refused to take them unless they could be
converted into cash. A bystander then
offered to give Orndorff the money for the
notes as soon ss the bank opened Wed
nesday morning, and rendered ten dollars
to bind the transfer. Orndorf accepted
the notes upon this pledge. turned over
his property. and on Wednesday morning
he presented the notes to the party who
agreed to cash them. The latter told
him that he would run up to the house
with carpet and come right back. After
waiting an hour Ornd0rn went to the
house and learned that his man had gone
thirty miles into the country.
6uspecting that all was not right. Orn-
dorf says that he returned to the maa
who bought the outfit and offered TO give
back the notes and go cash for his prop
erty, which otter was refused.
The present owner, Of the horses de.
clates that the notes were just what he
represented them to be. and disclaims all
responsibility for the failure of the other
party TO fulfil his agreement.
Az TO whether there was COLLISION 6r
not between the two buyers we have no
right to judge. but they certainly owe Il
TO, themselves and 70 the eellnpity to
clear thsmsslvss from ~ - je55ksf
