il. O. the running horse which was
injured at the Grand Forks races, will
be left at Grand Forks under
the care of DR.. Richard Church.
One of the eesamoid bones
in the limb is fractured but it will be all
right in time and probably not injure
the horse.
William Chapman died at the county
hospital a. Grand Forks Tuesday under
peculiar circumstances, and the coroper,
Dr. Rounsevell, has been telegraphed
for and will doubtless hold an inquest
over the remains when he arrives. Chip.
man was about 50 years old and was in
the hospital short time ago. He was q
victim of the liquor habit and has been
on spree for some time past. Tues
day he went out to the hospital but car
ried no card of admission. He was suf
fering greatly from the effects of delir-
ium tremens. William Rea, superin-
tendent of the county hospital, came
down town to see DR.. Logan and secure
a permit. When he returned Chapman
was dead. Some of the inmates SAW
Chapman go to cupboard where car.
bolio ecid is kept and it is the opinion
that he drank some.

MEN ARE MUCH AFRAID

The sarcastic maiden is not a
pleasant companion. She is too
sharp to be agreeable. Her cutting
speeches, rife with scathing person
alities, cause her to be Stunned
rather than selected as one of those
charming sort of girls men and
women both admire. If she writes
letter her pen seems to have been
dipped in vinegar, and though her
composition may be the very acme
of elegance still such an epistle is
not received with the warmth that
one of those gushing, girlyfied but al
together friendly ones always obtains.
One can be bright and say all
manner ofclever things without hurt
ing the feelings Of others by keen
knife edged opinions that are subtle
with bitterness and teeming with gall.
Sarcasm is not quality 10 be cult

started grows and grows, choking out
the little plants of kindliness, fore

Quips and Saws.

The reason SO many horse-raceS are
crooked is because the human race
isn't straight.
The man who puts his heart in his
work often has very little of it left to
bring home to his family.
People who cling to the anchor OF
hope often have to 90 down into the
mud with it.
Man is 80 per cent water, and, like
water, he finds it easier to 90 down
hill than to climb.
\ stole is man who has so keen an
appreciation Of the intensity of sensa-
tions that he is ashamed to acknowl-
edge his own real feelings.
Genius is only another form Of in
sanity. The genius is the only man
when he doesn't know whether his
wages are to be 81 or 500.
Dear friends, be not unhappy. If
you can't get what you want in this
world be assured that there is plenti-
full supply of things that you don't
want waiting for you. There is always
enough in the world, but most of it is q
mislit.

COLD WATERiNJURES PLANTS

Guard against the application of
hard OF cold water to the roots of
plants, and especially in the winter
months, when there has been a heavy
fail of snow, hail or cold rains. The
water in the tanks then becomes very
much too cold. This may not be
noticed in the ordinary course Of
things, and the plants are sure to suf-
fer check at the roots that. in the
case Of camelhas. for instance would
be quite sufficient to cause bud drop
ping. L am always very careful that
the water in our tanks is a few degrees
warmer than the house in which the
plants are growing. This is very i'm
portant III successful plant culture
We are apt to say sometimes on Ee
holding a sickly plant-one mildewed
or with rust on the foliage that it
must have been subjected to draft
or current of cold air, whereas the
probable cause was the use of cold
water, which paralyzed the roots.
Proof of this may easily be seen by
giving one or two applications OF cold
waiter to winter cucumbers or kidney
beans when settingtheir pods.

DID NOT CARE FOR EXPENSE.
The Old Gentle mans Lavish Extrava
gance Troubled Ills Wife Greatly.

A round-faced. apple-cheeked and
pleasant looking little old man sat by
the side of his rather acrid-looking
and elderly wife on the way home
from an excursion trip, or as the old
man called it, "a little excursion on
foot" He was full OF delightful mem
cries of all he had seen and heard, but
his wife looked sad and unsmiling.
Presently the old man pulled out a
little Old buckskin bag and shook a
silver dime and nickIe out of it.
There, Arimenty." he said to his
wife as he held out the money on the
palm of his hand, there's all that is

KEwAUHEE, Wis, Nov. 1S.-Two
months of close imprisonment in
the county jail has finally brought
Mrs. Cheney to confess the terrible
crime which hurried John Cheney
into his grave year ago last Septem-
ber. Up to last Monday she has al
ways stOutly denied the story told by
her children John and Theresa, and
maintained that she was innocent
She was informed last week that the
chemist had found poison in the de
ceased husbands stomach, but she
still stuck to her original story. Last
Monday morning however, she re
quested Sheriff Rooney to have George
". Wing, her council, and Dist. Atty.
v attawa come up to the jail. as she
wished to see them. The lawyers
with Sheriff Rooney took her to the
sheriff's Office. and there she made a
full confession of the crime As the
mother wept and told the story of the
murder her bright little 10 months old
baby sat in her lap laughing and crow
ing. The gentleman present say they
have no desire to go through another
such scene.
Her story in substance was about as
follows: She said that some eight or
ten years ago her husband and her
self bought a forty acre farm and went
upon it with their children TO make a
home; that from the first her husband
had been lazy, idle and shiftless. spend
ing every cent he could get hold OF in
the saloons; that most Of the work Of
the farm had been carried on by her
and the children; that as soon as the
two oldest girls grew up to years of
maturity. the unnatural father had at
tempted an assault upon them. only a
few weeks before the poisoning he

girl Theresa, and being demonstrated
with by her, he had threatened to kill
her; if she had not killed him that he
would have killed her; that few
weeks before he died one Of their
horses died and be went to kewaunee
and borrowed $50, induced her to sign
a mortgage upon their little farm for
the purpose of purchasing another
horse. He took $50, bought an old
horse for $40 and spent the rest IN the
saloon. This was done at a time
when they were struggling along to
earn bare existence. She says that
the state of affairs became so intoler-
able, she being in constant fear Of her
own life and the lives of her daughters,
that she determined to get rid OF him
and that the story Of the poisoning
was about as the children told it.

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 1S.-The legal.
ity of the installation into office of
the governor and other state house
officers, the election of state court
judges and the bills passed by tie
present legislature have been called
into serious question. Several amend
mentS to the constitution were voted
on in the October election, one of
which changed the sessions of the
legislature from biennial to annual
Another fixed the length Of the ses-
sion. The amendment of changing
the session from biennial to annual
did not specify any date of opening,
but the change was made in the body
of the bill and not in its caption.
Nor was it ever voted upon. 1t thus
transpires that the legislature was
called to order illegally. The atten-
ton Of the encouragement has been
called to it and a test case of some
kind will be made. If the first part
of the legislative session was illegal
then the governor has not been in
augurated and the judges and solici-
tors have not been elected. If this
IS so case tried before one of the
judges will be null and void. The
matter presents very interesting
situation and is being discussed with
much interest by the lawyers in the
state whose attention has been called
to it.

il Blaine would consent to run.
In the event OF Blaine's election
the understanding is that Alger will be
