WHO MRS. BUTLER WAS.

Mrs. Butler came here as Miss Fannie
KembIe during the winter of 1928,
accompanying her father, Mr.. Charles
Kemble. She was then in the fresh
dawn of womanhood and the first flush of
genius, heralded by praises from Sir
Walter Scott and Prof. Wilson; and she
received the first night, without any pre-
vious arrangements, such an ovation as
perhaps was never accorded to any artist
before nor since. In one box were the
Judges of the Supreme Court, with the
venerable Chief Justice Marshall; in an
other was Mrs. Madison, attended by ex-
President John Quincy Adams; while the
house was filled with the elite of all that
were distinguished in literature, arts,
politics, and general society of that day.
The name of Kemble revived to that il
lustrious assemblsge the heroic age of the
drama; and nobly did the father and
daughter sustain the reputation of their
lineage,
Again, in 1859, this bright and beauti-
full girl, ripened into the mature woman,

gifts of intellect and emotion, appeared

How Watch Gases are Made.

A plate of SOLID GOLD IA 2-10 karats
fine is soIdered on each side of a plate of
hard nickel composition metal, and the
three are then passed between polished
steel rollers. From this plate the various
parts of the cases-backs, centers, bezels, etc.
are cut and shaped by dies and formers.
The gold is thick enough to admit of all
kinds of chasing, engraving, and engine
turning. The composition metal gives it
needed strength, stiffness and sOlidity, while
the tpritte1 guarantee of the manufacturers
warrantinq each case to wear tarenty years
proves that it contains all the gold that
can possibly be needed. This guarantee
is given from actual results, as many of
these cases have been worn perfectly smooth
by years of use without wearing through
the gold. DUBUQUE. IA. Dec. IA, 1880.

THE GRAVEYARD GF THE Gil
ANTS.

Two miles from Mandan, on the bluffs
near the Junction of the Hart and Mis-
souri, Rivers, is an old cemetery of fully
100 acres in extent, filled with bones of
a giant race. This vast city of the dead
lies lust east of the Fort Lincoln road.
The ground has the appearance of hav-
ing been filled with trenches piled full
of dead bodies, both man and beast, and
covered with several feet of earth. IL
MANY places mounds from eight to ten
feet high and some of them 100 feet or
more in length have been filled with
bones and broken pottery, vases of var
ious bright-colored fints and agates. The
pottery is of a dark material, beautifully
decorated, delicate in finish and as light
as wood, showing the work of a people
skilled in the arts and possessed ola high
state of civilization. This has evidently
been a grand battlefield, where thous-
ands of men and horses have fallen.
Nothing like a systematic or intelligent
exploration has been made, as only little
holes two or three feet in depth have
been dug in some of the mounds, but
many of the bones of man and beast and
beautiful specimens of broken pottery
and other curiosities have been found IN
these feeble efforts at excavation. we

and Mr.. Townsend, one of our summer
visitors, were in his army.
Lake Mills has a second regularly Or

90, 1874 When he was Is years of age,
he removed to western New York. June
20, 1914, he was married to Betsey Il.
Fargo, of Stafford, n. Y, TO whom were
born three children, John, HELEN and
Maria In 184S, the family came to
Lake Mills, and have resided here nearly
ever since.
The fishing in the lake is not good yet,
owing to the lateness of the spring and
the great amount of rain water on the
surface 1t is, however, improving every
day and those who perseyere are amply
rewarded.

LARGE FARMS.

Because most kinds of manufacturing
are economically and efficiently conduct
ed in large establishments, we are apt to
assume that the tillage of the earth can
best be managed on the same wholesale
plan. The tendency toward this expert
ment has been strongly marked at the
west, where large tracts OF fertile land
await occupation. But nobody seems to
succeed in keeping such over.grown es-
tates together. If they are not broken
up after awhile for business reasons, they
are sure to be divided by the interference
of death. There are land owners now III
California who are fully aware of the
dangers Of undue concentration, and are
cutting up their estates as a matter Of
policy, believing that one of the greatest
injuries they could do their children
would be to leave them too much land.
The farm laborer in this country has uni.
versally the ambition to become a farm
owner. He is not content to work per-
manently for wages; he will not look on
patiently while few rich men absorb all
the available land, and ask him to do
for them the work which cannot be done
by machinery; and if the bonanza system
should ever be carried so far as to make
a real division between the laborer and
the land owner-one class holding the
property, while the other had the num-
bers and the votes-we should see some
startling social disturbances and some wild
legislation.
The small farmer has been the great
safeguard of our civilization. If we have
never had any serious and prolonged
conflicts between labor and the capital;
if the people have always been order-lov
ing, just, and in the best sense of the
word conservative; if we have been able
to receive millions of the poor and the
discontented from foreign countries and
convert them without the least friction
into thrifty and useful citizens, it is be-
cause we have made it our national poll
cy to give every man who wants it a
stake in the country. The typical
American farmer is laborer and capitalist
at once; and wherever the two great
forces of society are thus united there
must be prosperity and peace.-Nea0

A Londouer went down to stay with
the huatingEnglish parson, the Rev. Jack
Russell, of Black Torrington, in order to
have spin or two with the well-known
Devon or Somerset. On the morning of
the first meet it rained as it only can rain
on Exmoor, and the visitor looked out of
the rectory windows in dismay, loudly
proclaiming his disappointment and de-
claring that no one could possibly turn
out in such weather.. The reply OF the
old hunting Iarson was: "Young. man,
YOU have life before you, but l am seven
ty.five years G age, and | cannot afford
to waste a single days hunting. Get

.zTHE PRESIDENTS DAUGHTER.-In the
"Society" column Of the Washington
Post the following mention is made of the
Presidents daughter: Little Miss Ar
thur though but child, has great deal
of the matured manner of the world
about her, and promises when little
older to shine in society She attracts
considerable attention by her pretty ways
while at play at the White House, or at
the Soldiers Home, and she is seen to
the best advantage when she goes out
shopping, which she does frequently with
all the dignity of the state carriage and
livery. She sits back in the carriage
alone, like little queen, and gives her
orders to the footman, who, repeating
them to the driver, mounts the box with
folded arms, and they drive to some of
the fashionable stores on the avenue and
on F street She makes her purchases
from very deferential merchants, who
escort her and her bundles back to the
carriage and bear her directions to the
footman, who stands holding the carriage
door,"
MAKING WAR ON THE SEA-LIONs.-
The COqullle fishermen nave began q
raid on the sea-lions that infest the wa
ters at the mouth of the river and de-
stroy so many salmon during the fishing
reason. A sufficient fund has been rails
ed by subscription to employ two men
during June and July in shooting and
killing the lions at the rocks south of
the river. The males will first receive
attention, then the females, and finally
the young ones. The theory is that the
females will remain with their young no
matter how many Of the males may be
killed, and that the young ones will re-
main after there mothers have been slain.
The little ones are not at all suspicious
or hard to approach; in fact, they rather
court ones acquaintance, and it seems
downright cruel to kill them, but if left
alone they soon grow into formidable
devourers of fish at the time when men
most want them, and for this reason
there is no affection between the fisher
men and the lions, large or small. Hill
gren and Patterson are expected to go
thin the lions out at the mouth OF the
Coquille as to greatly improve the run OF
salmon in that stream this year.-Oregon
