ly belying the bits of wordliness which
fell from her tongue from time to time
These eyes had Il pathetic, child-like
droop to them which had moved many

at this moment, with her head down
bent; her determined little chin re-
laXed. He knew as well as if he were
sitting directly in front of her how soft
and tender her eyes, how thoughtful
her face. and he said to himself:

HER VALENTINE.


Till the suns w.rm lips have kissed
into living gold the snow.
Is II ono OF Cupid's laws,
Or some sweet decree OF Fate,
That manly step should pause
Every morning BY that gatet
Mo- his duties in the town
Call the lad who loves her well,
Through the pastures bare and brown,
From his homestead on the fell.
You may shake wise heads and smile
Yet tho narrow path leads straight
From the fields beyond the stilo
To the noss.grown wicket gate
Hush! She hears his rapid strides;
But the holly boughs droop nigh,
And to-day she shyly hides
Till the feet pause and-pass by.
All the thrush that nests above,
Sees how soft blue eyes caH shine,
When maidcn's own true love
Is her chosen Valentine.
Well, u lover need not know
That pretty maid would walt
In the February snow
by moss.grown wicket gate.
And the secret of the bush
Where the scarlet berries shine
Will be s2se between tho thrush
And good st. Valentine.

TIE CONSEQUENCE.

Some days later, a young man sat
smoking his after-dinner cigar in his
lonely room. Convinced that he had
been cherishing foolish dream, he had
undertaken to cure himself by hard
work, and was getting on very we'll:
for he was thoroughly interested in his
profession, and did not find life waste
after all. Tonight, just through with
an important case, in which he had
been allowed to share the honors as
well as the work, he felt disposed to
allow himself little relaXation; and
directly pair of gray eyes rose before
him, now smiling, now persive, and the
old question-"Might it have been?"
rose once more, as if it had not been
settled forever" again and again.
He finally pushed back his chair from
before the fire, and began impatiently
pacing bacl, and forth in the room.
A knock at the door, and the elevator
boy passed in the last mail for the
night. Two or three business letters
and little box. The letters were
thrown carelessly down on the table;
the box he kept in his hand in some
curiosity. 1t was small and light, and
sealed at either end carefully. as if it
contained something precious. Being
a man he did not spend much time in
conjecture, but broke the seals and
brought to light plain jewel box. In
much surprise he took off the cover to
find the box apparently filed with cot
ton. Inside the cotton something
cracklcd. ''Dynamiter' flashed into
his mind. Then, with a laugh at him
self, he pulled open the cotton to find a
harmless slip of paper wrapped in a
little coil around something which fell
into his hands as he began to unroll the
paper. II was ring he noticed hastily,
and then turned his attention to the
paper, which seemed of more impor-
taGcc to him. And this was what was
written on it:
" Fate sends you this circlet
With task that is sweet
To search the world over
And make it complete.
This task once accomplished-whereve It be
Revealeth, OH seeker, thy true love 10 thee"
His first sensation was one OF anger.
''Somc joke of the fellows, suppose.
It's pleasant to think I'm laughing

THE BRIDGE OF SIGHS.
HarWick and HOller's Sharp Prac.
tees Rebuked.


There was a lively tilt in legisla-
tive quarters last Saturday between
the HIS and the BIS of this legisla-
tive district. Holler and HarWick
had been quietly watching for some
time for an opportunity to pass a
bill to bond Wright county to con-
tribute $4,000 toward the Month
cello bridge. Bull and Berning,
on the other hand, had been watch
ing just as quietly for a chance to
bury such a bill. The two HIS last
Saturday, however, stole a march
on the BIS, while the latter were
out of the house but an hour on
committee duties. The HIS rushed
their bill through under suspension
OF rules and it passed the house be-
fore the BIS knew anything had
been done. Next morning, how
ever, Bull and Berning turned the
tables by passing resolution re-
calling the bill from the senate and
tying it up in the house again. The
kind of bill that should be passed
is one submitting the matter to the
vote of the taxpayers of the county.
Taxpayers should have the privi-
lege of saying what they choose to
invest their money in, and should
not be compelled by force or sharp
practices to contribute to an enter
prise against their will.-Hozoord

The People be Did.

Representative Harwick has had
a bill passed through the house,
authorizing Sherburne county to
issue bonds to aid in the con-
struction Of a bridge at Monticello.
There is no Observation-Disclosures
pie clause attached to the measure.
In putting this bill through, Mr..
Harwick has deliberately violated
pledges he made before and after
election, not to get legislation of
this kind through without permit
ting the people Of the county to
vote on it. However, with the
present board of county commits
sioners, there is n6 danger of the
taxpayers of the county being
mulcted in any great sum by this
betrayal of their interests, as it is
understood that that body is
unanimously opposed to issuing
bonds for such a purpose. -E2k
Rlve1 St07-Nezcs.
Treachery and Sharpness are Not
Winning Cards.
The trade under which ma or-
ity of the Monticello Republicans
sold out their legislative ticket last
fall, has just been completed by
the passage through the legislature
of bills saddling the expense Of a
bridge for the local benefit Of
Monticello onto the tax payers Of
Wright and Sherburne counties
without submitting it toa vote Of
the people. Mr.. Harwick repeat
eddy promised it should not be
done in Sherburne county, but be-
ing Monticello and not a Sher-
burne representative, he has gone
back on himself. They may think
that treachery and sharpness are
winning cards in this bridge mat
ter, but we venture to predict that
they will not get dollar from
Sherburne county or any town in
it.-Elh River Staa-Neaos.
