The aquatics are soaring high in their
journey southwark.
The cool mornings and evenings
make overcoats convenient coverings.
The required number of wise men de-
parted yesterday morning for Newt lm,

farewell sermon at this place on Sun
day last. During the coming year he
will be stationed at Balaton, MINI.
Mr.. Isaacs Gallagher, one of Sleepy
Eyes gehiel real estate men, visited
our village last week.
Blazing prairie fires are already be-
ginning to remove Mother Natures fad
ed carpet.
Had the author of footprints on the
sand ETC., etc., been on the streets of
our village on Sunday last, he would
have been led to use very different

printing.
Mr.. j. Richland met with Il serious
accident while returning from dance
on the evening Of the 18th inst. In the
darkness his buggy was overturned and
he was thrown into ditch, which re-
suited in severe fracture of the leo.

and that his death is expected at any
moment.
The cream gatherers state that the
amount of that PRODUCTS decreasing so
rapidly that by the end of the present
month the business in this section will
be no longer profitable.
While a company of railroad boys
were out hunting near this place, on
Sunday last, one of the party unfortun.
ately came within range of the guns
and received a shot in his eye. The
shot penetrated to the depth of nearly
an inch and lodged itself at or near the |
center Of the eye, thus rendering the r.,
wound one Of a serious nature. No
blame can reasonably be attached to
anyone, as the men were completely
hidden from sight by the long grass.
The unfortunate man left for home on
the evening train.

DIR. Susan Edsor, who attended Gen. Gar
field all through his last illness and who had
been for years an attendant upon the family,
was IN the White House for several weeks be-
fore the assassination. She was there for the
purpose OF looking after Mrs Garfield,
who was very III at that time. Gen. Gar
fields mother was summoned during this H.
ness OF Mira. Garfield. When the latter be-
gan TO grow better "Grandmn Garfeldn
made ready to 60 home. When tho time
came for her TO go she seemed oppressed with
a great melancholy. She was 70 unusually
sad at the prospect of parting with her son
that he put his arm around her and In his
most cheerful way tried to comfort her.
While he was engaged in comforting her
his wife began 10 urge him TO accept an in
vitation he had to go down the river for a
short trip. His wife insisted that he needed
the rest and, as she was out OF all danger,
she would be better pleased to nave him 20
than not Grandma Garfield here spoke up
and said: @Oh, James, don't goi I'm 50
afraid you viii be hot II you go away from
here now" II was this fear that has made
her so sad at the parting with her son, as it
afterward appeared for the last time. The
last thing she said to her son before
going away was to urge upon him the neces-
sity Of using great precautions against the
danger Of being shot by some secret enemy.
Her fears, however. made no impression ON
Gen. Gartield's mind.
Grandma Garfield, since her sons death,
has given herself up to breeding over his
memory. She spends the entire day In read
ing over his letters to her, and does not APP
pear to care to talk about anything else but
her son.

BANCROFT, The HISTORIAN.

him the most interesting. He Is not the
most charming conversationaiist In the
world. He fairly roars as he talks. He mp

one a dozen yards away. He shouts several
sentences at a friend In this high key and
then without waiting or listening 10 anyone
else he moves to address someone else. ns

young man He darts in and out OF the
leading houses OF the town with a light skip
that Is almost offensive In Its exuberant
agility. This veteran still has a slim, erect
figure. His legs are straight There Is no
weakness there. He holds himself together
with all that goes to make a good military
set-up. He Is especially agils in thu pres
ence o fladies, and under the inspiring glance
Of a lovely society bud, the veteran ~curyets,
SHES and skips with the lightsome grace Of
some Of the thoroughbreds he has been 50
fond Of riding in the past.
This ia a picture Of him as l saw him the
other days He sat in a low. easy pony
phaeton drawn by a stout black horse, wear
ing a plain. unornamentsd harness Just
back OF him In tho rumble sat his favorats
colored groom, who held the reins over the
historians left shoulder. The old man wore
a dark-blue untrimmed Pruszian officers
cap pulled well down upon his cleaning
eyes, looking out through a huge pair OF
round, heavily gold.mounted glasses resting
upon a real hawk nose. A snowy-white,
silky mustachs and beard brought out his
fresh color, and stood out in strong contract
with the dull black OF his heavy pilot-cloth
overcoat, while about his legs was an afghan
Of red. black, and yellow worsteds 1t was
n warm, sunny day. His horse logged along
With a steady gait, while the veteran roared
a soliloquy at bis servant about his calling
plncesL The man leaned forwari deterrent
ially and superintended the calling list
When he said stop the veteran would throw
aside his afghan and skip up the steps, SEEM
ing to restrain himself by an effort from
turning handsprings on his way.
Mr.. Bancroft lives a very regular life, and
as he has always taken a great deal Of out
door exercise, it Is not hard to account for
his long life. He has never burdened him
self with work. He has been all his long
life writing a history that could lave been
written In ten years with moderate labor.
One page Of manuscript a day OF $50 words
he regards as a good days work Mr.. Blaine,
bis fellow-historian, a man in the full vigor
of his life. regards 1000 words a day as all

Ordinarily much of the value of hen
manure is lost to the poulterer by al
lowing it to remain on the floor of the
hen houses and covering it with ashes
or lime to keep in the ammonia, and
then trampled under foot until it be-
comes part of the floor itself. In
In new States and Territories many do
not miss manure in the new soil, but
the time is not far distant when the
farmers, gardeners and cottagers will
need it on their WORKOUT soils. Hen
manure is one of the most valuable
fertilizers used on land for flowers and
vegetables. Every practical agricult-
urist and florist knows the value of
guano as a fertilizer, and yet it seems
strange with this fact before them
that they do not pay more attention to
