The Duluth Evening Herald says:
Frank A. Greene, city ticket agent o.
the Northern Pacific and Wisconsin
Central lines in Duluth, has been
appointed city ticket and passenger
agent Of the Wisconsin Central at
st. Paul, a new Office created since the
lease to the Northern Pacific was set
aside. The appointment is deserved
promotion highly gratifying to Mr.
Greene. 1t will be a week or ten days
before Mr.. Greene assumes his new
duties"
Frank A. Greene is a former Grand
Rapids boy and married Miss Nettie
Young, who also resided here at one
time. They have a large circle of
friends here who are pleased oyer Mr..
Greene's promotion. He is deserving
of all the emoluments he receives and
we predict that ere many years have
passed he will be in position to give

Will move to St. Paul Immediately and
make that city their future home.

GOOD nARkETS.

There is probably but very few
places in the Statt.with better markets
and better railroad connections to
reach good markets than is found in
the Twin Cities, and no place we know
of any where is any better adapted for
growing all kinds of small fruits than
this section here.
With our railroads running North,
South, East and West we can reach all
parts of the state, and our county ought
to build up reputation in fruit grow
ing second to none. Everybody ought
to plant enough for their own use and
some for market, and remember that
you can get the very best plants, bushes
and trees of Messrs. Purdy & Read of
the Wood County Nursery that can be
procured anywhere and at prices lower
than can be procured from any other
nursery.
Agents of eastern nurseries will
charge $3.50 per dozen for raspberries
and s. per dozen for blackberries but
you cae get 100 at the same price if you
patronize HOME INDUSTRY. Remember
and call for anything you want of

Guilty Or Not Guilty.

Wonders never cease. We meet with
surprises every day of our lives and
they only vary in character. Any per-
son who listened to the evidence and
trial of the case of State of Wisconsin
VS.. Ora Knapp, charged with burglary,
and then b. d the verdict rendered of
"not guilty. by twelve impartial men,
met with greater surprise than they
have for long time. We infer that the
court, attorneys on both sides, and the
people generally were surprised at that
verdict. If the defendant was not
proven guilty by the evidence produced
by the State we can fully realize that
the question of proving criminal guilty
is becoming almost All impossibllity.
We have no criticisms to offer against
the defendant. whether he is guilty or
not, in fact it was his right and privilege
to prove himself innocent if possible.
We do believe jury is subject to criti-
cism when they find a prisoner mot
guilty" and afterwards claim they were
satisfied he was guilty of the ofense
charged, but they thought the evidence
was not sufficiently strong to convict
him. Where they could get stronger
evidence than that Of an accomplice
with his evidence verified by some of
the stolen property, is asking more than
the state could furnish. Such decisions
are discouraging to the officers whose
duties it is to bring punishment upon
criminals. The law is too lenient now
with criminals and when the jury inflicts
such farces upon the justice of the court
it is high time that something was done.
Such decisions encourage crime. If the
defendant is guilty of the offense, such
a verdict will only convince him that it
is an easy matter to prove himself inno-
cent before a jury of twelve men. In
| the community such a decision has a
bad effect. We hope the defendant will
improve this opportunity and lead a life
wholly free from suspicion. Idleness is
the forerunner of all crime.

Work Commenced.

In another column under the head of
council proceedings" it will be noticed
that the city has decided to build a
stone wall from Bittner's meat market
building up to the congregational church
property, distance of 400 feet. The
wall is to be feet wide at the base and
8 feet wide at the top and about i feet
high On Monday special election
was held for the purpose of issuing
bonds to the amount of $1,000, which
was carried by vote Of 106 for, and Il
against. a crew of men was put to work
Tuesday noon removing the sidewalk.
Chas. Koenig took the job of laying the
stone in the wall for $500 per cord.
The city will furnish all the material
and the work will be commenced at
once This improvement is one very
much needed and we are very glad to
see it commenced.

CAUSE Sic Iilpugut you were lonesome
living here all alone" said Frank, as
Daisy looked bashfully down at the
sidewalk and said nothing Take il
out and see if you don't think it is q
pretty one"
So Dennis drew ont the dainty valcn-
tine and held it in his big, clumsy
fingers while he gazed ut the pink
heart transfixcd with silver arrow, as
if lost in admiration.
"Open it," said Daisy, land see how
you like the inside. Bridget sent yon
that" AT the namc Dennis gave lit
tie start, and then he slowly opened
the valentine, but as he saw the pretty
green shamrock tho paper dropped
from his hands and fluttered down to
the muddy sidewalk, while he took
no notice, but stared at the children as
if he was crazy.
"Where did you get it?" he asked, in
whisper. Tell me quick where you
got it."
"Why, / made it, if you mean the
valentine" stammered Daisy, half
frightened and wondering what made
him act so strange.
where did you get the shamrock?"
he asked, eagerly. "How did you come
to have that?"
"Why, Bridget Murphy gave it to
her, and l don't think you are very
polite to act so when Daisy gave you
such pretty valentine" said Rose
severely.
But Dennis paid no attention to this
rcbuke. for his mind seemed full of
something else. Where does Bridget
Murphy live?" was his next question.
"Why, she lives with u.s." said Frank
"She is our upstairs girl Why, do you
know her?"
Miss Daisy, do you remember what
l told you? Pm sure she's the girl I've
been looking for all this time. Her
name was Bridget Murphy, and gave
her that shamrock
When they heard this tho chill
dren were almost as excited as Dennis,
and they hurried him off up the street
to Mr.. Woollett's house. Then they led
him up the bnck steps on to the piazza,
and bidding him to stand back in the
shadow, they ran OFF to tell Bridget
that some one wanted to see her. just
as she appeared in the doorway Dennis
stepped forward SO that the light fell
full upon his face. At sight of him
Bridget stopped, stared moment and
then turned SO pale that the children
thought she was going to faint.
"Oh, Bridget, don't!" they cried.
"That's Dennis, who has been looking
all over for you"
Then Bridget smiled and Dennis
came nearer. ''Dennis!" "Oh, Bridget"
and for few minutes the children
felt that they were quito forgotten.
Then Bridget turned and hugged and
kissed them each in turn, while the
glad tears stood in her eyes as she
smiled and said: "Well, children, you
thought you wouldn't have any valen-
tine for me, but you've given me tho
best of the IN. Y. World.
