"A case almost deserving of lynching
er some treatment equally severe was
brought to our notice yesterday. 1t
Seems that last winter farmer named
VIM. Moen, living in the nelghborhood

Norway, and while there young g!rl
scarcely out Of her teens, the daughter
Of neighbor, fired with Moen's story
Of America, expressed a desire to come
- this country. The girl was comely
and we'll educated IN her own language
but wanted to have some place to board
and 60 to school. Moen told her he
had = farm near coed school and that
liis sister kept house for him and offered
20 take the girl back with him promis-
ang her good home.
When they arrived at Moen's home,
- miles from Cooperstown. the girl
found that Moen patched with his two
br0thers in Il two roomed shack and
that no schoolhouse was anywhere to

most to death but speaking strange

but in the course of couple of weeks
Moen commenced to take liberties with
her and finally one night the girl awak-

and investigation next day disclosed

The girl threatened to leave and 90

making this discovery, and did go so
Tar as to 60 to a neighbor's house for
protection but Moen threatened to kill
the girl and her brother and the neigh
bors were afraid of his vengeance and
turned her out. Going back she dis.
covered that they had burned her trunk,
Vontaining all her clothing and jewelry
and stolen her money, and was told
"now y0u can't Co."
This reused the girl to desperation

After her arrival in jamestown she

Uncle Philip-Well EtneI you have

me you would not attend another one.
Ethel did uncle, hut you see it was
this way. Alonzo promised me faith
fully to take me home before midnight.
Uncle Philip-Yes, you broke your
promise with me and Alonzo did with
you.
Ethel-He did, dear uncle, and sup
pose l deserved such treatment because
1 was not faithful to my own word. l
am ashamed to tell you the reason but
suppose ! must. There were there
young men frsm town who had bottles
of strong drink. l never saw Alonzo
drunk before.
Uncle Philip know young people
are fond of company and often 20, not
considering it is not good company they
are apt to meet at such places.
Ethel-Of course you're right. Uncle
Philip, and l am going this very after
noon to see if we girls cannot organize
literary society.

like your mothers daughter than you
have for a long time. Enter mother).

Sabbath in this way,
Mother-No, Phil, and what is more
l believe it is only what we might ex-
pect Of young men who play ball on
Sunday in summer. They will try to
have the you' 3 ladies partake of their
Sabbath breaking habits by drawing
them into Sunday dancing in winter.
Uncle PhiIip-Ethel was just speak
ing of forming u literary society that
they may be enticed to something more
elevating Such dances cannot fit one
for the real duties of4ife even if they
are not held on questionable night l
was about to add that 1.-THE world is
wide and there are just as good fish to
be caught IN the sea as ever were caught
IN the Sbeyenne," and it IS not necessary
that Ethel should be compelled to
choose husband from any living here,
but she can do what she can do what
she can for their elevation.
Five years later. Enter Ethel, just
returned from boarding school-O,
Uncle Phil, how glad l am TO see you.
l am so happy. am to be married on
Washington's birthday.
Uncle Philip-Welcome back, dear
nelce, and thrice welcome are you on
this new year, especially as your mother
has told me all aoout your prospects
and the kind of husband that is to
claim your heart and hand.
Ethel-O, he is so manly, so kind, SO
true. so aspiring to all that is noble; so
just, so generous, and-I love him SO
dearly.
Uncle Philip-Well, we'll, he must be
almost perfection itself if he is all of
that. But who is this good man that is
to make my little neice SO happy!

Miss Kate Field, editor of
Kate Fields Washington, a peri
odical suspended last April, is in
San Francisco on her way to the
Hawaiian Islands. Miss Field
says she has not made up her
mind what she will do when she
reaches the islands. She does
not intend to confue her efforts
to review of the political situa-
ton, nor will she limit her cor
respondence to social and economic
questions. She hopes her intel
hgence will extend to all corners
of the islands, and she is going
t. make an effort to visit the leper
settlements on the island of No
lo&ai. Her stay in Hawaii will
cover II period of several months.

A small body of determined
men, well organized, can fleece
the State out of valuable fran
chises just as two or three deter
mined men hold up a railway

hold up their hands. -AdvertiSer.
