JOSEPH BATTELL's DEFINING AL
LEN

The New York sun, in its report of the
horse show, says: There were but three
entries for the class for Morgan-bred stall
lions, among them being Denning Allen, the
sire Of Lord Clinton, the black gelding
which was the sensational trotter of two
years ago and at one time held the record
for trotting geldings, having trotted the
Lansing track in 2:0Ss. Denning Allen
was bred in New York city and foAled in
Kentucky. He was taken 10 Arkansas
and driven by a physician there in his
practice for ten years. He was afterward
bought by ]. j. Battell of Middlebury,
Vt, and is now his property. Mr.. Battell
is the publisher of the Morgan Horse Reg
lister, and is considered thelauthority on he
breed in this country. Denning Allen is
p years old, but is remarkably well pre-
served for that age, and is one of the most
imposing-lOOking animals in the show.
He was one of the animals modelled by
Max Lansberg, who was sent out to this
country by the German government TO
take models of American types of the
equine family" This is the Morgan stall
lion which took, at the Worlds Fair, the
first prize in the aged stallion class, the
sweepstakes medal over all competitors,
and was also awarded a special medal by
the United States government as being the
best all-around general purpose horse
shown az the great exposition.

series OF Sermons 20 Young Foik.
A large congregation gathered in the
Baptist church last Sunday evening to lis
ten to the first sermon in Rev. L. d. Tenn
ple's series to young folk on "Courtship,
marriage and home" Mr. Temple took
for his text words in Gen. H., "A. He said
in part:
Not every marriage results in hap
DIV home. More wretchedness is caused
by foolish marriages than by disease and
poverty. Courtship is the most interesting
experience i'm the annals Of the race. A
Young man should select for wife girl
whose parents are not anxious 10 be lid Of
her. A young woman who does not make
her fathers home happy is not likely to
do any better for her husbands. II she
is thoughtful and self-denying for brothers
and sisters she will be the same for the
Young man who marries her. Select girl
for a wife who has more smiability, com
mon sense and principle than beauty. II
is a good thing to be handsome, but you
want a wife who will grow more handsome
as she grows older "She always made
home happy" was the epitaph in a church
"a inscribed by a husband after 20 years
married life. The woman who can
make happy home is always beautiful in
h the ewes Of those who know her. Choose
for your life companion a girl who knows
more and is better than you are. You
need some one 70 lift you up and tone you
down: some one who can teach you some
/ thing.
Goethe once met and loved in the groves
! Of Sessenheim certain Frederika. The

home she seemed beautiful as a wood
nymph. but when be saw her again in the
salons Of Strasburg she was only peasant
after all. Some say you should choose

who is enough better than you are 10 grace

The women of the Branch Alliance of
the Unitarian church held a social with
Mrs. WArder last evening. Progressive
euchre was the social diversion. This was
the first of series of socials to be held
during the winter.
A pair of heavy sale horses belonging TO
Z. t. Blood were frightened by the cleo
trio cars on the avenue last Saturday and
ran down Green street, colliding with a
single team near Reeds Castle" The
driver escaped with slight bruises. The
breaking of the pole of the heavy wagon
was the extent of the harm done.

All of the young peoples religious socie-
ties in town, in the churches which have
been wont TO unite on other general occa-
sions, are invited to meet for the sunrise
Thanksgiving prayer meeting, which will
be held in the Centre church chapel next
Thursday morning at O'Clock. It is a
custom too good to be lost, for young peO-
pie thus to come together, once or twice a
year and by praise and prayer to feel the
forces of divine love and goodness which
are always at work drawing them upward
and toward each other, and which as they
alike agree, find supreme expression in the
teachings of Jesus.
In giving a history of the beer raid last
week it was our purpose 10 give the facts
without personal prejudice. Mr.. Martin
SAYS, however, that his own position in the
matter was not fully stated. He refused
TO proceed against the hotels by search and
seizure because this might result, under
the law, in closing the hotels to the public
detriment. He would, however, proceed
against them whenever necessary by prose
cution. He holds TO his original PROPOSE
ton that the "holes in the WALL should bt
effectually closed and the hotels dealt with
as occasion requires if their proprietor;
neglect the warnings given them and per
sist in violating the law.
