Fruit Trees at Wholesale.


Mr. J. w. Hill, secretary Of the Des
Moines Nursery Company arrived in
Audubon yesterday, and will offer far.
mers some unequalled bargains in fruit
trees. The company he represents has
a surplus Of 10000 apple trees of hardy
varieties, all approved by the state hor.
ticultural society. lie proposes to
form clubs in neighborhOods to whom
he will sell these goods at the unprec-
edented rate of ~ cents each. Cherry
trees Of equally hardy growth will be
sold at from % to 30 cents each, in
quantities. These prices will at once
be recognized as below any ever of
fered in this community and those de-
string to purchase can well afford to
club in order to secure such reduction.
Certainly every one can afford an or
chard under such circumstances. The
gentleman will remain in the commu.
nifty couple Of weeks.

We publish this week an article from
the Register showing how extensively
republican clubs are hning organized
throughout the state, and how enthusi.
asticaIly republicans are marghaling for
the contest County Chairman Hanna
also publishes card calling meeting
of republicans, next Monday evening,
to organize in Audubon and vicinity,
with purpose to perfect township and
county clubs. We trust republicans
will unite in this effort and give hearty,
unqualified support. The meeting of
the state league, to be held in March,
should contain a delegate or delegates
from Audubon county, and this is not
too early to effect the organization. The
campaign of this year win be hard
fought and 1t should lie pleasant duty
for each republican to perform his
humble yet important part. Let there
be large, enthusiastic and harmonious
meeting next Monday night to eyi
dence the enterprise and loyalty of the
party in this county.

Last Saturday evening about o'clock,
as Mrs. viii Doak opened the kitchen
door to throw out her dish water she
was struck a heavy blow upon the
breast, which was followed by hand
full of of cayenne pepper thrown in her
face, filling her eyes and nose, and u
portion Of which was drawn into the
throat and lungs by respiration. Mr.,
Harry Doak, a brother of the lady's
husband, was in the room and caught
her as she fell, Medical aid was sum-
moned, and the hest ofattendance given,
so that the lady is getting along As well
as could be expected, and probably no
seriovs results will ensue. The motive
and the identity of the nerpetrator OF
the deed are profound mysteries. 1t is
the elimination of persecution in the
way of sundry anonymous letters which
has been conducted since the late fall.

The Methodist parsonage was made
to reS0md with the voices of happy
company OF ten, from within and with.
out the church, that invaded this happy
home Monday evening. A number
of Rev. and Mrs. Harris friends to the
extent Of ten couples prepared
very happy surprise which was
carried out with only the ono
unhappy fact that one,half were de.
tanned from the evenings entertain,
ment. The visit was complete surprise
to the good parson aud his equally good
wife, and when ut the opportuno time
they were presented with u rich and
elegant plush upholstered parlor set
their surprise was yet more complete.
The visitors camo laden with baskets
containing delicate aud substantial
eatables, which received undivided at.
tention ut the conclusion OF the presen,
tatlon and an appropriate reply on be-
half OF the recipients. During and fol.
lowing the supper social enjoyment
ran high and the company tarrled until
quite midnight, subiecting The stald
parson and his wife to mild dissipa-
ton that would hardly be condonod un.
der less cxecuseable circumstances but
rs Rev. Harris says tho late hours were
courted in order to give Mr.. Dennis
time to finish his supper, the sympa-
pathies of humanity are with the com.
pany.
Both donors aud recipients thorough.
ly enjoyed the evening, and by their
version II Is difficult to determine
whether It's more enjoyable to give
than TO receive.

The Country Press,

from Dos W0lHe' Ut'Td0H,
The opinion prevails somewhat in
some quarters that the influence Of the
country press Is mix" but 80 far as
this legislature Is concerned that opin.
ion is away off. A large majority of the
members of both houses, being from
rural districts, do listen very attentively
to the pointed remarks Of the country
press" upon leading issues. They even
take pains to find out what the country
papers think, and quote them in sup
port Of any position they may take.

Double Tragedy at Woodvi11c.

BUTTE, .sMarch 9.-News reached town
this morning of bloody tragedy enacted
last night at Woodyille about five miles
from Butte. There has been some prop
erty in dispute for some time between
John st. John, Frenchman, and Mrs.
Robb, a colored woman. Yesterday St.
John came to town and bought 38-cali-
bre Smith & Wesson pistol, tested it on
his way home and made mysterious
threats. About 10 o'clock four shots were
heard in quick succession as Mrs. Robb's
house. Neighbors on entering found ST.
John and Mrs. Robb both dead on the
floor. A 15-year-old son of the woman
says ST. John came in under the influence
of liquor, abused his mother, and threat
ened to kill her. She moved away from
him and sat on the side of the bed. ST.
John ordered her to stand up, at the same
time drawing a revolver. When she took
a step forward he fired, the bullet striking
her in the left cheek short distance be-
low the eye, With a groan she fell for
ward on her left side and the assassin, de-
termined to make sure of his victim, shot
her twice in the right breast. Raising the
smoking pistol, he placed the muzzle even
with his right ear and pulled the trigger.
The bullet ploughed it's way through the
brain, causing instant death.

Montana Horses at Denver.

The Denver Tribune has this to say of
some Montana horses now in that city:
Mr.. W. H. Raymond, proprietor of the IA
nous Belmont Park breeding farm in
Montana, will offer twenty high-bred
geldings at auction Immediately after the
J. NJ. Broadwell sale of thoroughbreds on
March I'd. A number of these animals are
excellent road horses, some matched
teams and a number of fine, gentle family
horses. These horses were raised on
mountainous ranges, having the most
perfect feet and limbs, are thoroughly ac-
climated and possess many other excel
lent qualities that are only found among
the mountain raised horses Eleven Of
these geldings are standard bred, nearly
all are by standard sires and out of trot-
ting bred dams.

DOMESTIC INFELICITY.
1t is Brought Under the Cold Scrutiny of the
Law.

On Saturday Mr.. John Spence, a half
breed living on the Marias, appeared be-
fore Justice Of the Peace Geo. w Crane,
to answer to tire charge of assault and
battery. judicial investigation developed
the fact that Mr.. Spence's family rela-
tions are not as happy as they might be.
He has been living with his lady for some
thing like fourteen years, but has never
INDUCED in the luxury of marriage GER
tificate, for the very potent reason, that
the priest refused toperform the ceremony
until the fair ones legal husband passed
in his checks This the gentleman de-
clined to do, and fondly looks forward to
green old age. But these remarks have
nothing to do with the assault which
simply grew out of difference of opinion
between Mr.. Spencer and his inamorata.
He was of the opinion that his domestic
affairs would be improved by little
wholesome discipline administered to the
feminine end of the family, and to this
end selected a young four -yearold club.
With his ally, at command, he proceeded
to Issue declaration of war; sounded the
slogan and advanced his skirmish line.
The ehemy retreated, but not being suf
ficently nimble,was captured and whipped
soundly and well. This the blushing
damsel resented to the extent of calling
upon the laws strong arm for redress,
and she got it. Justice Crane, after put
ting on a span new pair of speetacles, and
studying the laws and gospel bearing on
the case, assessed the warrior ten dollars
and costs. The amount was Immediately
paid, and peace again relgns in Warsaw,
as well as in the domestic circles of the
tribe of Spence
