Few counties in the state can boast
of as fine strains of trotting and draft
horses as can Stevens county. The
progress has been a gradual but
steady development, and we believe
that this feature of diversiication will
prove boon. Indifferent breeds of
horses are simply unsuitable now, land
even in good times only bring price
that barely pays the cost of raising.
A horse that has thoroughbred strains
always finds a good price, and even
in times like these, fancy prices are
paid for promising colts.

In MEMORIAM.

From her home in Hancock, Mimi, Mrs.
II. B. BLACKMAN, aged forty-one years,
crossed the Crystal River, March 2Srd, to
meet the loved ones gone before.
She leaves husband, son and sister, and
many warm friends who will mourn her de-
parture from this life. Rev. E. n. Ruddock
was tender and consoling in the extreme.
A large coneourse of people came to pay its
respects and show their affectionate regard
for her memory. During prolonged ILL
ness, the kind and faithful ministrationS of
Loving husband made her sickness lighter,
side, continually endeavoring to alleviate
her suffering. A devoted sister, too, blessed
the sick room with her presence, admins
tering all the consolation possible, but God
called her, and she has entered upon more
blessed and happy life, and has become
freed from the pain and suffering which a
diseased body inflicted upon her. Beneath
the emerald turf, beside the clear waters of
the lake in the cemetery at Hancock, they
laid her mortal form; and while she is lost
| to, our visible presence her memory will be
hallowed with tender endearments by all
who knew her.
+ THE eye that shuts in dying hour
49, Will open the next in bliss;
The welcome will sound in the heavenly world
j Ere the farewell Is huShed in this.
We pass from the clasp of mourning friends
I To the arms of the loved and lost,
And those smiling faces will greet us there
Which on earth We have valued most
3or, =
f., know when the silver chord Is loOsed,
-" When the veil is rent away,
Not long and dark shall the passage be
TO the realms of endless day."

AZ the meeting OF the threshermen
last Saturday, but little was accom-
plished, owing to tho small attendance
and an adjourned meeting will be
held two weeks from that date, namely
June 9th. The purposes of the pro-
posed organization and its objects are
to fix fair rates of compensation and
endeavour to MAINTAIN them by pre-
venting ruinous competition. No sche
dule was adopted, but at some places
the prices established were 2 cents
for wheat and 4 cents for oats.

A large number of our residents
drove to Herman Saturday to witness
the ball games, and beautiful cool
day it was. There were quite a
number of ladies in the party and the
occasion was very pleasant one.
The result of the games by innings
we omit on account of space. The
game between the high school clubs
was full of interest and served to get
up quite an excitement among the
friends of the competing mines. The
second game, between the first mines,
was devoid of interest and was not
completed, las the Herman club had not
practiced and were without some of
their best players. The days festivit-
les we're closed with dance rendered
by the home clubs to the visitors, and
the Morris people we're most pleasant
ly and socially entertained.

We notice some of our exchanges in
neighboring towns are advocating the
celebration of July 4th. We would
suggest that steps be taken to have a
good ball game and some horse
racing, and observe the day in this
manner instead Of trying to raise
money by contribution for ali old
time celebration. 1t is a hard year to
raise funds for actual needs, and in
our opinion it would be advisable to
dispense with any extra outlay for
this year.

On last Sabbath evening, the union
service held at the Congregational
church, was largely attended, and
proved interesting and instructive.
Essays on tie life and work of the
apostle Paul, were presented by Miss
E. Ware, Miss Laura Thoele and
Mrs. L. E. Pearce, each taking up
some separate and distinct phase of
the apostles career. The essays were
certainly OF a high order of merit,
and evinced both study and pains
taking research. Further essays on
Saint Paul will be read on Sabbath
evening. June 9th, at the union meet
ing in the Methodist church. With
out question these meetings can be
made not only entertaining, but in
structiye, and be the means of occas-
ionally providing an evening that
will be filed with profitable infor-
nation to both old and young.

DECORATION DAY.

Fitting and Appropriate Ceremonies.
Decoration Day preserves it's sacred
associations, because it commentaries
our dead, andas each year rolls along,
the ranks of the survivors grow
thinner and there are more graves to
decorate, but the sacred associations
are only the more firmly impressed
upon our memories, and the day is
each year becoming more appropri-
ately observed as holy day than as
a holiday.
In our village the ceremonies and
exercises as arranged, were followed
out as nearly as possible in details,
and the public observance was such
as to impress upon all, that the
thoughtful and patriotic sentiment
of our people is one that augurs we'll
for the future, as the memory of those
who fell is not only kept green, but
the principles for which they contend
ed are held sacred.
At 1870 o'clock the Morris posts
marched to the cemeteries and deco
rated the graves of their comrades.
In the afternoon the order of exer-
cises and program was carried out in
accordance with the previous an
nouncement, the court house being
too small to accommodate the assem-
blage, a platform was erected on the
grounds, and the following order of
exercises was rendered. It proved a
most appropriate and fitting program,
the musical portion being we'll and
acceptably rendered, the recitation
excellent,and the speaking by Messrs.
Darling, Bicknell and Hogg worthy
of the attention accorded.

In drive to Herman last week, two
especially dangerous places were
noted between here and Donnelly and
both near H. B. VOLTS tree claim.
