i want to be sociable,' answered Per.
ry. I am anxious to be sociable but !
cant drink with you
Alright growled the friend. 'Ifyou
don't want to be sociable III go without
drinking
The two men walked silently along
for o minute or two, the sociable man
In state Of great irritation, until Per-
ry suddenly halted in front Of drug
store.
I'm not feeling very we'll today, said
he, with pleasant smile. and ! think
I'll go IN here and get dose of castor
oil. Will you join me?'
WHAT exclaimed the other, "a dose

WISE WORDS.

Fidelity is the sister of justice.
There is a woman at the beginning
of all great things.
The way Of the world Is to make
laws, but follow customs.
One with more soul in his face tLan
words on bis tongue.
To rule ones anger IS we'll E; to pre-
vent it ls still better.
Our own heart, and not other mems
opinion of US, forms our true honor.
The silence often OF pure innocence
persuades when speaking fails.
Names alone mock destruction ); they
survive the doom OF all creation.
Poets utter great and wise things
which they do not themselves under
stand.
Our self-love is ever ready to reyol
from our better judgment and Join tn
enemy within.
At court one becomes sort Of hu
man ant.eater, and learns to catch one
prey by ones tongue.
What rein can hold lcentious wick
edness, when down the hill he holds hi:
fierbe career.
The happiest life is that which con-
stantly exercises and educates tina
which is best in US.
There is only one real failure in life
possible, and that is not to be true tt
the best one knows.
Time, with all its celebrity, moves
slowly on to him whose sole employ
ment Is TO watch Its fright.

JOHN SCHUETTE had a yacht, but now
SO no more. He took great pride in his
little boat. Every once and awhileit would
spill him into the lake and John would
walk home and toast his shins at the kit
chen stove while his clothes were drying.
but he never blamed the boat for his mis-
haps. He took great pleasure IN the be-
lief he was a sailor. He always went
alone on these cruises as no one cared to
risk his life II his. company. But the
boat Is now gone and John stands show
of dying with his boots off. The boat
was stolen by tramps on Tuesday night.
Possibly the fellows were escaped con-
victs from the Milwaukee Jail. No mat
ter what they were, the recording angel
has placed long mark to their credit
for having stolen this boat. Whoever
took the yacht went north with il as the
wind was from the south. They were
seen skimmlns by two Rivers about one
O'Clock yesterday morning. They beach
ed the boat IN all probability, somewhere |
along the west shore as they would hard !
ly attempt to sell it. In the meantime |
John Is inconsolable and is ready 10 |
fight any one who says the boat Was no |
good.

LIE jury IN the Schroeder case brought
IL a verdict Of murder in the second
degree. They came to an agreement at
clock Friday morning, the case having
been given to them the evening proceed
ing. The first ballots were six for acouit-
tai and six for murder III the second de-
gree. A great amount OF sympathy was
felt for the old woman because of her
frlendless condition. Her children all
left for home as soon as the trial was
over and when the verdict was brought
IN and the old woman staggered with the
blow 1t was the sheriff and not one of her
children who supported her.
The lightest punishment for murder in
the second degree is II years in states
prison and this was the sentence of the
Judge on Saturday. A. j. Schmitz arg
ued for new trial but this was denied.
The testimony against Mrs. Schroeder
Is quite strong. Her appearance and
friendless condition secured the sympathy
OF the jury who gave as light verdict as
they thought was consistent with the
facts EyeRpfter beng sentenced Mrs.
Schroeder protested her innocence, stat
ing that her punishment wolld not be so
hard to bear if she was guilty. 1t is pc
cullar case IN all its features.

JAMES Lone Of Franklin was so seriously
injured by being thrown from his wagon
while on his way home from the city on
Tuesday last, that he died on Thursday.
The accident occurred between Cato and
Gnmms. A peculiar feature of the accl-

road from Tuesday until Thursday and
was not discovered. The terrific heat of
these days did as much to end his life as
the fall did. He lived only short while
after having been brought home on
Thursday evening.

THERE is no injunction which appeals
more strongly to natural affection than
that which reads Honor thy father and
thy mother" When a man thinks of what
his mother has endured for him, the af-
lection she has lavished on him, the sac
ritices she has made for him, the faith she
has in him, he must be worse than a
brute II the warm current of his love does
not center In her, no matter what her
faults. There was never another case
of such flial disre gard as that shown
by the children of Mrs. Schroeder during
her trial for the murder of her husband
The poor old woman was allowed to lam
guish 10 jail before her trial and no al
tempt was made by child of hers to pro
cure her bail. Not one of them even VS.
tied her during her affection, and during
the trial she sat alone. Not one word of
affection from child of hers, not even a
glance of recognition, not word of as
suranCe. They were the witnesses against
her, and with brutal disregard of the duty
which nature imposes, were always for
getful of every circumstance which might
bear favorable Interpretation to the
mother who bore them.
Her affection was not cold The poor.
old, deserted woman pleaded with her at
tOrney not to be hard with her children
when he addressed the jury. Guilty or
not guilty, it was their place to stand by
their mother as she would have stood by
item. 1t was pltiful to watch that
crouching figure while her own sons were
swearing her life away. She went to
prison without word of leave taking or
a sign of affection from those she bore.
Such heartlessness, fortunately is rare.
