WHEN JIM WAS DEAD.
r. L. Stanton.
When Jim was dead,
"Hit served him right" the neighbors said,
An 'bused him fer the life he'd led,
An him a-lyin' thar at rest
With not rose upon his breast!
All! menny cruel words they said
When Jim was dead.
"Jes' kimseIf." "roO mean ter lIVe,"
They didn't have one word ter give
OF comfort as they lowered near
An gaZed on Jim a-ly1n' thar!
Thar amt no use to talk" they said,
Hes better dead!"
But suddenly the Dom growed still,
While Gods white sunshine seemed ter fill
The dark place with gleam of light
And O'er the dead she Dent-Jlm'S wife
An with her lips clOse-ciOse to his,
AS tho he knew an felt the kiss,
She sODbed-a t0uchin' sight ter see
'Ah! Jim was always good ter mel"
l tell you when that cum ter light
1t kinder set the dead man right;
An round the weepln' woman they
ThTowed kindly arms of love that dav,
And mingled with her own they shed
The tenderest tears-when Jim was dead.

MUD BoATs.-A. M. Delano, of Fort
Dodge, had car load Of marble which
he wanted to send to the isolated town
Of Pocahontas Center. He enquired at
Rolfe for the facilities for transporting
the stone from that place to Pocahon-
tas Center, and found peculiar state
of affairs. The freight could be taken
to Pocahontas but it would be by mud
boats and it would cost just one dollar
per hundred pounds. A mud boat SER
vice has actually been established and
this is the only way of communicating
between Rolfe and Pocahontas Center
Not wheeled vehicle caR be seen, ard
the process of transportation is slow
