A Noted Doctor Who was Shy
Abernethy, an eminent London
surgeon of the last century, was
noted for his independence and for
his indifference to people Of rank and
wealth. A certain nobleman once
presented himself at the surgeons
office and without waiting for his
turn demanded to see Abernetly.
He was refused, and when it came
his turn he entered the consulting
room in great anger.

asked.

sszzaas'> said Mahala;
she threw herself into the rocking
chair as she spoke, and began to
sway to and fro us if to give vent to
her impatience. She was a slender
girl, with delicate high features and
nice light brown hair, but her calico
gown was patched and SO were her
shoes, and up in her bedroom hung
a best silk dress that had been
turned wrong side out and wrong
side up, before at last it was d we'd
brown and trimmed to hide the fray
ed spots. You could hardly have
found a girl who had SO little of this
worlds goods to call her own, a girl
SO we'll hammered and with such a
sense that she was only ones equal
She taught school, and what she
earned paid the rent OF the three
roomed cottage, and bought food
for the two women. Aunt Samantha
found the knitting of occasional
stockings rather more than enough
for her share OF this worlds work,
but she was unusually sympathetic.
This time, however she failed to be
SO. Mahala had received an offer Of
marriage from a man Of means, a
good man, q man who offered her q
fortune, and added, lots Of room
and hearty welcome for Miss Saman~
tha."
Miss Samantha looked at Mahala
as she rocked. Mahala did not usu-
ally rock; in fact, her aunt thought
to herself that she had never seen her
do it before, It gave her some hope
that, despite her first remark on the
receipt OF that letter which lay upon
the table, she might take the matter
into consideration.
People do not hurry themselves
there in Nantucket, amongst the
rocks and sand-they think things
over.
Miss Samantha rose and went to
the table and took up the sheet
of blue foolscap which had been taken
from the yellow envelope which lay
near it, carried it back to the window
and began to read. ..

Her aunt went on with the letter.

laughter.

KILLED BN INDIANS
Ferguson's Body Pound surrounded by In

Ferguson's Body Pound surrounded by In
dian signs.
On Thursday morning, Stock Detec.
tive Billy Smith. who had he sdei a
party If cowboys To hunt for the re-.
mains of Rpht. Ferguson, came upon
the hiding place If the body in a dry
gulch on the divide between Rosebud
and Sarple creeks, and about 900 wards
from where bis horse had been found
dead few days previously. Indian
signs, such a. rony and moccasin
track, Were plenty, particularly in the
vicinity Of where the horse sas found.
From this point, where the killing
was L. doubt done, the body wa- car
ried about 600 yards TO the gulch
where 1t was placed In the bottom
wrapped in q coarse blanket, and earth
from the sides scratched down upon II
with the hands. Owing 10 il having
rained since the body was placed
there, there was nothing unusual in
the APPEARANCE of the place where the
body lay. and several of the party
inspected 1t casually without seeing
anything to attract attention. One
more quick.sighted than the rest,
though, caught sight OF the finger
marks on the sides Of the draw where
the earth had been scratched down,
which induced him to give the bed Of
the gulch q closer examination, result
ing almost Immediately 10 the discov.
cry of the remains, rs there was but q
few inches OF earth on top. An er-
animation OF the body disclosed the
fact that Ferguson had been shot
through and through the chest, prob
ably killing him instantly. No mutt
lation or indignities commonly prac.
ticed by Indians were noticed on the
remains, though from the numerous
Indian signs about the place there can
be no doubt that Rob-. Ferguson met
his death at the hands OF the ssvsges.
II Is presumed that he was killed on
the 9Th of May, as he left home on
that day intending to return tina,
night. Billy Smith is inclined to lay
the crime at the door of the Cheyenne
Indians, who he says art thoroughly
armed and have every appearance OF
being under great restraint and ex.
element. He, accompanied by JUS
tice Brown. acting coroner, left last
night to view the remains and render
Q verdict in accordance with the
known facts.
From Fred Ramsey we learn that
Robt. Ferguson was very estimable

st. Cloud Journal-Press: Mr..
A. J. Fisher, prominent Todd
county farmer and a member of the
Alliance, says: Il do not see what
more farmer can ask of an eXecu-
tive than Gov, Merriam has done.
He has interested himself in their be-
half more than any other governor we
ever had. 1t is largely through his
efforts that the binding-twine plant,
which is about to be put in at the
state prison, was secured, and in many
other instances he has proven faith
full to our interests. This alliance
talk is a great deal of a humbug after
all. Why, let me tell you, SIT, that
the men who are working and organ
izing the alliance up here are in the
main disappointed office-seekers.
There are, of course, hundreds of good
men who belong to the Alliance and
enjoy the social features connected
with the organization. | belong to it,

LEGEND OF TIE SPRING.
On farm belonging to 4. w. Randall, near
Morris, MINI.


On farm belonging to E. w. Randall, neal
Morris. MINI.
One summers day winsoms fairy strayed
Around a nook near where a minstrel played
Enjoying much the gentle, pleasing strain
Till all too soon the day be, an to wane.
Nor youth nor fairy noted eve was near
Until the sun began to disappear.
Then roamed the youth around the prairie
wide,
The fairy tripping lightly at his side,
And vet he found nor man, nor bird nor beast,
Nor drink on which his hungry eyes could
feast.
But wearied quite, atlength he slept,
While over him the fairy vigil kept.
But when next morn the sun began to rise
The minstrel opened wide his nut-brown eyes
And also strove to rise, but was too weak
To move for either food or drink to seek.
The fairy softly then for water prayed
And begged her queen to give the minstrel aid.
How dared you love man 2 What do you
mean?
My favorite too? Thus spake the irate queen.
Then all the fairies with plaintive cry
Now begged their queen not let the minstI el
die
Till from her mystic throne the queen let fall
The crystal fountain from her magic hall.
Most solemnly the queen did then decree
This fount should ever flow and ice-cold be.
The wal er soon revived the helpless youth,
When thanklessly, to tell the honest truth,
He left the place. The fairy could but grieve.
And vowed the fountains side she'd never
leave.
The queen looked sad beneath her crown
But moved her fairy kingdom down
Into fragrant clover boom, beside
The magic spring, where fairies still abide
Through summers sultry heat or winters
snow,
And still the crystal waters ice-cold flow.

Bad Mistake.

We honestly believe that there are
very few, if any, Alliance men in the
state, who, if they expressed their
honest views, but would admit that a
serious mistake was made when it
was decided to organize the Alliance
as political party and place a full
Alliance ticket in the field That
their state ticket will be defeated.
there is no doubt, and all that will
have been gained by this movement
will be the exhibition of their
strength in the state, while at the
same time they are likely to have
many of their legislative candidates
defeated who might have been cleo
ted had they refused to put full
ticket in the field. AS we understand
the aims of the members of the Alli-
ance it is to secure the control of the
legislature and thereby secure the
needed legislation SO much talked
about by the Alliance party.
Now we submit in all candor, that
it would have been far better for the
Alliance party to have concentrated
it's entire force in the endeavor to
elect Alliance men to the legislature,
and not meddled with state and coun-
ty nominations. Had they taken this
course we have no doubt but they
would control our next legislature.
AS it is, it is exceedingly doubtful if
they do. 1T is very bad to sselaim the
earth" and then secure scarcely terra
firma enough to stand upon.
