Attorney Tillotson, of Rolla, gave
US, few weeks since, two-column
write-up in the Dunseith Times, in
which he attempted to say some new
things about us. AS is usual with
this gentleman, he did not succeed.
We are weary, Tilly dear, of these old
gags. Cant you give us something
fresh? We should certainly have sx-
pected something VERY fresh indeed
from you, but like all others who look
to you for anything, we were doomed
to disappointment. Exhalations Of
stale beer and forty-rod tangle-foot
may seem appropriate in the columns
of the Times, but when they 60 be-
fore the public they SAVIOR too much of
your own personality. You make one
rather startling assertion, dear Tilly,
considering the fact Of your being a
lawyer, that is, ''justice courts never
render verdicts." In the hundreds
of cases tried every year before justi-
ces in which no jury is called, We pre-
sumo no verdict is given. Would to
heaven we knew as little Of law as you,
dearest Tilly. Do you know IS little
of other things? And if SO, what
blissful life you must laad, for you
know--or DO you know-"ignorance
is bliss But here we stop. While
out shooting few days since, we met
relative Of yours-a bushy tailed fel-
low, spotted black and white, but as
we prefer cologne, we gave him wide
berth. For the same reason we drop
you here. Adisu, dear Tilly, Adieu.

October Forecasts.

October will come in reactionary storms
we'll ON their way to the east. A cool wave
with rising barometer will be approaching
from the west and warm, threatening con-
ditions will prevail in the east. The cool to
cold dash following this period will give
way in the west about the Sd and during
the 4th to the 7th, storm conditions will take
| their courses across the continent. Some
snew, rain and high winds may be expected.
A dash Of cold will attend and follow the
storms. On and touching the 9th and 10th,
disturbances of fgreatermagnttude will likely
for secondary disturbances but the moon is
not onl at It's new, but at its eclipse node on
the 9th thereby disturbing the magnetic and
| electric relations to the sun, Moon and earth
and, as we believe, greatly increasing the
| normal tendency to storms. earthquakes
| and all related phenomena. Watch all de-
| velopments closely, at all events from about
the 8th to the llth. A cold wave of wide
dimensions will wind up the disturbance
of this period. There will be heavy frosts
and some freezing northwald say about the
| 10th to the 18th. Mt
The next torn period is from the 18th to
18th. We name the l7thl as the crisis.
About the 18th it will grow much warmer in
westerly regions-baromet will begin to
| fall-winds to shift to easterly and souther-
| ly, with general storm Indications and by
the 18th storms will be organized and on
their eastward course. Snow to the north
and west may be expected during this per-
/ iod, with general rains and severe autumnal
gales in the lake regions. Heavy northeast
| er1y gales are probable on tho Atlantic
coast. The northwesterly wave following
| the storms at the close of this period will be
more severe and the dangers of frost and
freezing will extend much further south
ward. Very cool days and nights will con-
tinue up to the reactionary.changest to set in
about the 21st, bringing warmer weather
with renewed storminess on the 22nd to 23d.
These disturbances may threaten for sever
al days and reach a crisis at or near the full
moon on the 25th. Another cold dash will
end the perturbations Of this period giving
us a forcible reminder tnat winter is 1T our
door. For several days very cool weather
will prevail, calling for precautionary meas
ures where perishable products are exposd.
The last period for the month runs from
26th to 3Oth. The disturbances will be CEN
trail about the 9th to 18th, with warmer
threatening conditions in the east and Sc
we're changes to colder developing to the
west. Be on the watch for heavy autumnal
storms, especially on the lakes and coasts.
Be ready, also for the cold wave which will
be due the last four days Of October. The
conjunction of the planet Saturn falls on the
9Th and If such be additional cause for dis
turbance, it's effects will be felt most from
about the 8th to Goth. Storm days within
that limit will be the most tdangerous.-Word

Did you ever give note for thirty days.
If so, you have distinct idea of how short
a time month is. And that is all the
time you will have to see the greatest ex-
hibition ever given of the worlds progress
in art science and manufactures. for the
great Columbian Exposition at Chicago
will end on the 31st day of the present
month. In fact you will not have quite
thirty days from tne time you read this.
It is not possible in these limits. to tell
you Of all Tor even part) that you can
see there-but if you would realize some
thing about il, ask your neighbors who
have been there You will find that the
only regret they have is that they cannot
60 again. Is there any better commenda-
tion than that? Never again lprobably)
in the lifetime Of persons now twenty
years old, will there be such an exhibition
held in America No one who can spare
the. time and money. should think Ct stay
ing away. As to how to get there we'll.

ticket to Chicago and return over the

In this issue is communication
from one of our readers level headed
ia: seeing business man strives to in
culcate doctrine which would be of un-
told value to our readers-and to our
self-if followed up. The burden of his
cry is, "avoid debt" To the credit
system may be attributed nine tenths
of the financial ills that man is heir to-.
To that same system by which one
man becomes indebted to another,
can be laid the fact that large
fraction of the race is little better
than so many serfs, ,toiling their lives
away to feed the insatiate monster,
Debt. Let Us get out of debt and
keep out of it, And let US enact our
laws to this end, not as heretofore, to
make it as easy as possible to plunge
head long into its tolls.

American Levity.

Singularly enough it appears that Poe,
the only absolutely distinct genius our
country has yet produced, was incapable
Of humor and that even his levity was
artificial. Hawthorne, next to Poe in
originality and far above him in style,
was but meagerly equipped with smile
provoking material. Bryant, our great
est poet, maintained lofty seriousness
throughout his work.
It may be sacrilege to say so, but the
truth is Lowell was the founder Of our
levity. He never could be quite relia-
bly, serious thinker, but could at any mo-
ment break off into funmaking. Humor
is good in fresh and natural state, but
so is a peach. Cut and dry either, and
you have poor article for a regular diet.
We Americans have fed upon laughable
things until our faces show the wrinkles
Of grin even when in solemnest repose.
We are never sure of one another, but
must wait awhile after each communi-
cation to find out whether or not it is q
joke. The effect of highest sincerity
cannot be reached in the midst of all this
hurly burly Of chatting voices. How can
zone be serious while everybody else is
'grimacing? ng?-Chautauquan.

Didn't Know His Own Child.

At Antietam, just after the artillery
had been sharply engaged, the Rock
bridge (Va.) battery was standing wait
ing orders. General Lee rode by and
stopped moment. A dirty faced driver
about II said to him:
General, are you going to put US in
again.
Think of such a question from such a
source to the general Of the army, espe-
cially when that generals name was Lee.
Eyes, my boy" the stately officer kind
ly answered; II have to putyou in again.
But what Is your manner Your face
seems familiar somehow"
II don't wonder you didn't know me,
sir" laughed the lad; "rm so dirty. but
I'm Bob"
It was the generals youngest son,
whom he had thought safe at the Vir'
ginia Military institute. "God bless you.

rode on.-W ashington Post.

There Was Just One Man.

There Was just One Man.
There is a gallant congressman who
once had the reputation of sowing wild
oats broadcast. When he was first run.
ming for congress, many breezy stories
were told about him. At last he gave il
out in the heat of his campaign that he
would speak shortly in defense of his
morals. It was a Populist district, and
he had big audience. The speech every
one liked, but until the last sentence not
q word was spoken about the advertised
subject. At the last the candidate stuck
his hand under his desk and pulled out
several boxes of imported cigars.
"Gentlemen," he cried, II am accused
Of having certain bad habits. Particular
instances have been alleged in fact. I
wish to make some one in this assem-
blage q present Of box Of good cigars.
If there is any one here who has never
done what l have done, will he please
step up and take it?" No one moved.

far back seat after awhile arose and
said in high, squeaky voice, Colonel, l

A Whatcom Fruit Merchant Intimidates
Young Lady
George Peterson, otherwise known a.
"Greek George" rested last night in
the county Jail.
Peterson Is the proprietor of fruit
store on Elk street, New Whatcom,
and one Of his peculiar idiosyncracies
for year or more past, at least, has
been "A fervent admiration for the fair
sex. This Is but natural, and might be
considered emincntly proper, when the
attentions are such as are within the
bounds Of modern procedure and cOun-
tenanced by modern usage. But
Peterson is said to have come from the
the isles of Greece where burning
Sappho loved and sung, therefore II
his loves and hates were violent
therein the man finds an excuse.
As matter of fact George has been
eccentric in this particular aud at difler-
ent times he has shown his passion for
divers Young women In a very peculiar
way. He reached the climax yester-
day.
About go Miss White, daughter Of
Captain White, Of the police force, ac-
companied by young lady friend,
passed his store. Peterson rushed out
utter her, and at the muzzle Of a revol-
yer. forced her to enter his store and
take seat. The young lady had moth
| ing to do, Of course, but obey his COM
mand, followed by her companion. No
violence was offered, however, and an
alarm was given by a number OF eye
witnesses Of the outrage, and Peterson
was soon after placed under arrest.
| In Justice Gallaher's court yesterday
afternoon he offered no plea for his mad
actions, and was placed undsr $1,000
bonds, In default Of which he
