To We'd the Man She Loves.

A young woman of ladylike appear
ance stepped up to the bench in the
Tombs Police Court New York, and
asked leave to speak to Justice Powers.
"Your HONOR said she, ST want
to get married to young man I love
very much. My parents want me to
marry a young man whom 1 don't
like, and 1 refuse. To prevent me
from marrying the man / have chosen,
my parents have seized all my clothes.
1 am 10 years of age, Judge, and L
have worked hard for my living for
several years. My parents are very
poor, but they are unjust to me. 1
have known the man 1 want to marry
ever since 1 was a child. We have
had the banns published in church,
and would have been married yes
terday but that my parents locked me
up in ROOM"
"Can the young man provide for
your" asked the magistrate.
"Yes, SIR" replied the young
woman.
"Then," said Justice Powers,
''your parents cannot legally inter-
fere. Go and follow the inclination
of your heart, and l hope that your
married life will be happy"
The young woman thanked the
Justice with tears in her eyes, and
said she intended to get married at
once, clothes or no clothes.

immediate social contact, so to speak.

a corpulent lady from Manitoba, and
a girl from Chicago jumped over nine

of q preacher from La Crosse. with
so much timid, girlish enthusiasm,

and went ever and sat down in
lunch basket where a bridal couple
seemed to be wrestling with their first
picnic. Do you suppose that reticent
young man would have done such a
thing on ordinary occasions? Do you
think if he had been at celebration
at home that be would have risen i'm
petuously, and gone where those peo-
pie we're eating by themselves, and
sat down in the cranberry jelly of a
total stranger?
81 should rather think not.
''WThy, an old man who probably
at home led the class meeting, and
who was as dignified as Roscoe Conk-
ling's father, was eating piece OF
custard pie, when we met the other
train, and he left his own seat and
went over to the front end of the car,
and shot that piece of pie into the ear
of q beautiful widow from Iowa.
"People travelling somehow forget
the austerity of their home lives, and

Who is this man with the long thin
legs, the STOPPING shoulders and the
yellow, flowing hair! His name is
Oscar Wilde. One day when the
superintendent of lunatlc asylum was
on hunting expedition in London
he picked up Oscar and took HIM be-
fore a magistrate who asked him his
name.
''By the misty eyelids of the sleepy
moon l cannot tell you," answered
the prisoner. "Mamma would not
like it,"
From that moment lie became fa-
nous. For breakfast he sips the dew
from honeysuckles, and his dinner
consists of roast lilly bugs favored
with lavender water. Half dozen
sachel bags and ten trunks constitute
his baggage. The trunks contain
locks of his hair which he purchased
cheap at a Surrey rope walk. No
fashionable American girl will be
long without one. His soul yearns
after sunfowers. Give him his
choice between a sunfower and 8
greenback and he will take the green.
back. In Chicago he is destined to
be most popular-his feet are sc
large. When he returns to his native
land loaded with rocks his "mamma'
will say to HIM:
"Oskie, the fortunes of the family
are much improved. 7 want a new
sealskin sacque and dog CART
But the lilly worshipper will depar
from her saying:
Swell, I should smile. What doe
the old woman take me for?''
After that, no Englishman will ca

more beef with his sunhowers thai

The Cruelty of Nature

"We are in the hands of God, and
unless He relents we are lost"
The pathetic words were written
by the heroic commander of the
Jeanette expedition few days be-
fore hisdeath in the WINERY solitudes
of Artic Siberia.
The writer was a religious man.
The entries in his last journal, which
laid near his dead body, prove this.
Again and again he speaks of reading
prayers. Thus, on the very day he
wrote the sentence we have quoted,
we find this also: missed Lee.
Went down in a hole on the bank
and camped. Sent back for Lee. He
had lain down to die. All united in
saying the Lords prayer and creed.
After supper, strong gale of wind.
Horrible night"
But the forces of nature were re-
lentless. The fast-falling band Of
explorers sought help in prayers as
instinctively as children turn to their
father for aid in trouble. There is
no kind answer. The white earth,
the cold sky, the icy wind seemed to
ask in the hooking words Of the Eng
fish poet:
"Shall gravitation cease when you
go by?"
Natures laws know nothing of
march to man, and, while the power
to change their operation is involved
in the very idea of God, people are
every day less and less disposed to
believe that the power is exercised.
"rhe greatest cOsmic forces" said
John Stuart Mill, in one of his most
impressive essays, ego straight to the
end without regarding what or whom
they crush on The road"
Nature impales men, breaks them
as if on the wheel, casts them to be

Happy Fr1nchmen in Debt.

The sang frOid with which the
French Minister of Finance, NJ. Tir-
ard, announces his intention to in
crease the floating debt Of the repub-
lie $40, 900, 900 to 100000, 900 for extra
ordinary public works is only ex-
ceeded by the Indifference with which
the French people receive the an
nouncement. They already have a
debt of 81 ,24S, 200, 900, which is great
er than that Of any other nation on
the globe. That of the United States
is now but 81 ,65S, 926.17I, or a little
more than onethird that of France,
although our population and wealth
are vastly greater than hers. The in
terest and sinking fund demand of
the French debt is S24l 400, 900 year,
and the total cost of government is
SIT per capita for the entire popula-
ton. The French people are pro-
verbally cheerful and individually
economical, and it is strange that
they can regard the extravaganza of
their government with so little CON
Germ. Unless check is put upon the
lavish expenditures from their pub
lie purse, crash will come which
Will disturb their dreams of perpetual

shows that there has been land boom
in the state, and the purchases of com.
mon schOol-land from the state, if they
have been in the same proportion, have
largely replenished the state treasury.
There has been left in Umatilla
county, Oregon, this spring, between
s400, 900 and $500,000 by the d fferent
buyers of cattle, sheep and horses. 1t is
estimated that 100000 sheep have been
driven out of the county. The prices
paid for these sheep were from $1.5O
to 1925 each. 1t is thought 5000 head
of horses have been sold at an average
price of $12 50 per head. From 10000
to 10000 cattle have been sold at $40
to $50 per animal.
The Salt Lake and Western railroad

west of Lehi, and by June Is the road

three miles from Lehi. At a point
three miles this side of the smelter

be known as Ironton, from which iron
for the smelters will be shipped. Near
Ironton there are very extensive bodies
of iron ore of fine quality, which is
being mined and shipped to the smell.

Saline valley, Inyo county, Cal, is

the state. If the lofty Inyo range
were out of the way, it would not ex-
ceed fifteen miles distance from Owens

1000 to 1000 feet lower altitude. 1t
is simply an immense basin, say twelve

Wool Growing in Kansas.
Leavenworth Standard.

Leavenworh Standard.
We have from time to time spoken
in these columns of the Hock of merinO
sheep owned by Mr.. Booth, on his farm
in jefferson county, within one and a
half mile Of Winchester. Mr.. Booth
has Just finished shearing his flock of
one hundred and forty-three thorough
bred merinOs, which yielded 1,349
pounds of wool-an average OF ten
pounds and thirteen ounces per head,
which shows what can be done in
growing wool in this part of the state.
His four stock rams averaged twen-
ty pounds and six ounces. Their united
weight when shorn is three hundred
AMI one pounds. Three of the rams
are only two years old and one three.
He has been equally fortunate with
his breeding ewes this season, 80 OF
which were bred and IS lambs are liv
ing. Five died and two had twins all
bred except two. A great deal Of this
success is due to the careful manage
ment of Mr.. f. l.. Gibbs, formerly of
Whitewater, Wis, who has been in the
sheep business for nearly twenty years.
Mr.. Gibbs is interested with Mr.. Booth
in the flock. They propose to make a
speciality Of breeding from registered
merinos, so that the wool-growers of
this state need no longer go east after
their bloOded sheep. We are glad to
learn that quite large number of the
best farmers in eastern Kansas are en-.
gaging in the same business. raising
pure-blooded sheep, and we wish them
success, for we are convinced that
Kansas is destined to be the leading
wool-growing state in the union.
