Heaps OF Trouble.

n. L. Mercier smashed the counte-
nance of Aaron Flickinger Monday
evening. He was taken before
Justice Shaw who sentenced him to
pay a fine Of 81 and costs, or spend
ten days in jail. He is doing the
latter. : '
Later, someone paid Mercier's fine
and he went home. About 1880
parties in the neighborhood OF their
home ON Fourth street north heard
a woman eaming and thinking
the house was on fire went in and
found that Mercier was abusing his
wife. The row was immediate tely
stopped.
Wife beating seems to be getting
quite common in Little Falls, and
some of the citizens may take it in
to their heads to administer a dose
of his own medicine to the offending
party.

Within the hammock's net she swung,
So graceful and so fair.
Her arms above her head were flung,
Lovely beyond compare.
He sat beside her for awhile.
Enchanted by her grace,
Till finally blush and smile
He saw upon her face.
And then he heard her softly say,
First looking all about:
Nov, please, Tom, turn your head away
I'm going to get out!''

Mrs. Henry Robbers, OF Minneapolis,
of her sufterings and she has passed
over the river to the land where
pain and suffering are unknown.
For over a year she suffered with a
cancer and all that medical skill
could do was done to relieve her,
but without avail. 1t had been
known for several months that she
could not recover and when the end
came it was a relief to the patient
sufferer as we'll as to the many friends
and relat tives who had watched with
and cared for her. A husband and

spent most of her life.
The funeral was be held Thursday
at st. Cloud and the relatives anC

Fair Faces on Shaving Mugs.

A fad which bids fair to become fairly popular is now blossoming quito exten- sively in Washington. When the young lady thinks he is dear enough to have her photograph, she has miniature painted on shaving mug or mustache cup, or. better still, somo bit of china brio. a. brac. In order that 1t shall stay fast the painting is burnt in. As amateur artists have of ten been employed in this work, the re- suits have not been very satisfactory. The chappics have sent their photographs to New York to have the work carefully done, and some good results have been reached. Of course, in case of a rupture and the se- lection of new loves, the china can be as easily broken as if it were in the hands of some of our kitchen mechanics. It has not advanced far enough to be a craze, and tho cost may confine 1t to those who can mako it rather exclusive. Washington Star.
