Our good old German friend Peter
Nader and his wife, with their family
of twelve children, came into Morris
last Saturday and had Elliott the
photographer take a picture of the
entire group. 1t took light of 8x1O
glass to accommodate the party, and a
good looking, healthy, happy and in
telligent family they appear. The
parents reside in the town of Ever
glade this county, and Mr.. Nader is
thrifty, successful and well to do
farmer. The youngest child is nine
years old the eldest twenty-six, and
but one of the family, a daughter, is
married. Eight of the children are
girls, and all born to the parents are
living. Among the girls are eleven
year old twins, and their resemblance
is very marked, SO much SO, that for
several years it was necessary for the
parents themselves to have means of
distinguishing them, but for slight
difference in height, only noticeable
when standing together, it is difficult
to tell one from the other, even now.

Settlers on every quarter section
mean much for Stevens county, and
while the collapse of our bonanza
farmers may be a misfortune to them,
it will be boon for us, as it means
the parcelling out into 160 acre farms
of immense tracts heretofore con-
trolled by single individuals or corpo-
rations. The foreclosure of the Mime
sofa Farming Association lands will
eventually give us, in place of nom
resident owners, at least fifty families
on as many different tracts

On last Friday evening, the resi-
dence of Patrick Cannon, two miles
west of town, was, with the entire con-
tents, totally destroyed by fire. Mr..
Gannonwas just returning home from
town when he discovered the fire, but
the blaze was beyond control and. it
was even impossible, 80 rapidly did the
flames spread, to save any Of the con
tents. There is an old saving that
fire changes luck, we hope this will
be true in this substance, as Mr.. Gan
non has had more than his share Of
misfortune. The house was insured
for $500; no insurance on contents.

Arrested for Perjury.

On Tuesday evening, Sheriff Thor
son, of Pope county, came to Morris,
armed with a warrant for the arrest
of Ole Hauskins on a charge of per-
jury. Deputy Sheriff Me- ullough was
sent for Hauskins and arrested him,
and he was taken to Glenwood yes
terday morning.
It appears that ON June 21st last,
Hauskins applied to Clerk of Court
Thomasson, for marriage license, but
as the clerk had reasons to believe the
girl, a daughter of Hannibal Ellsworth
was not Of age, he refused to issue the
permit. Hauskins, on the 10th OF
June, went to Glenwood and got a
license there, making oath that the
girl, who resides near here, was res
ident of Pope county.
The complaining witness is Ell. Els
worth, the father of Mrs. Hauskins,
and the hearing was held at Glenwood
yesterday.
The case was continued until Fri
day, April 10th. Bonds fixed at $500

The Romance of the Garnet.

1uC EUhHdkA(G VI kuS ~0EpSIs
Basking in peace In the warm spring sun,
South Hill smiled upon Burlington.
The breath of May and the day was fair,
And the bright notes danced IN the balmy air,
And the sunlight cleaned where the restless
breeze
Kissed the fragrant blooms on the apple trees.
His beardless cheek with smile was spanned
AS he stood with carriage whip in his hand.
And he laughed as he dotted his bobtailed coat,
And the echoing folds of the carpet smote.
And she smiled as she leaned on her busy mop,
And said she would tell him when to stop.
So he pounded away till the dinner bell
Gave him little breathing spell.
But he sighed when the kitchen clock struck one;
And she said the carpet wasn't done. ..
And pounded like mad till the clock struck six.
And she said, in dubious kind of way.
That she guessed he could finish 1t up next day.
Then all that day and the next day too,
The fuzZ from the dustleSs carpet flew,
And she'd give it a look at eventide,
And say, Nov beat on the other side."
And the new days came as the old days went,
And the neghbors laughed at the tireless boom,
And his face was Swallowed with clouds Of gloom;
Till at last one cherries winters day,
He kicked at the carpet and slid away.
Years twice twenty had come and passed,
And the carpet Swayed In the autumn blast;
For never yet, since that bright spring time,
Had 1t ever been taken down from the line.
Over the fence a gray-haired man
Cautiously CHM, CLONE; elem, clum, clam; = :
He found him stick in the old woodpile,
And he gathered itup with sad, grim smile
A flush passed over his face forlorn
AS he gaZed at the carpet battered andtorn;
And he hitit most resounding thwack,
Till the startled air gave its echoes back,
And out of the window a white face leaned,
And palSied hand the sad eyes screened.
She knew his face-She gasped, she sighed:
IA little more on the under side"
Right down on the ground his stick he throwed,
And he shiVered and muttered, "Well. I am
blOwed!"
And he turned away with heart full sore,
And he never was seen, not none, no more.
