PERSONAL

1t was reported by telegraph that while
on his knees at family devotions Rev.
Joseph Kicker, D. D., was stricken with
paralysis 1t appears that as he was
closing his prayer his wife noticed a
slight indistinctness in his speech, and he
was unable to rise from his knees without
help. His entire left side, arm and leg
are helpless and without the sense of feel
ing, while his speech is but slightly
affected His appetite is good and his
mind as clear as ever. He is cheerful
and happy, converses with great freedom,
and with his old-time appreciation of
keen wit and humor. If no other shock
sets in his friends are looking for at least
temporary recovery.

AT Pine street M. E. church, yesterday
forenoon; at the Congress street M. E.
church in the afternoon, and at ST. L aw-
renee street Congregational church in the
evening, the Rev. C. S. Frost, Of Ban
gor, delivered an address upon the sub
ject A Great Discovery Following is
a brief statement of his remarks before a
large audience in the Congress street
church in the afternoon.
Mr.. Frost said that. some years ago, a
man in California, sold his farm, which
he thought WASH t worth much to a
neighbor, who soon after discovered gold
upon it. The first owner was sorry that
he sold it, but it was too late.
just SO with the Scriptures We must
dig below the surface of them to discover
the pure gold. That is, we must search
the Scriptures.
His text he would take from Molachi
$40, "Bring ye the tithes into the store.
house that there may be meat in my
house, and prove me now herewith, saith
the Lord Of Hosts, if / will not open you
the windows of Heaven and pour out a
blessing, that there shall not be room
enough to receive it. !"
He had searched below the surface of
this grand verse and he had found that
the meaning of it was that he should
give one-tenth Of his income to the cause
of Christ. He had done so for seven years.
He had been happy all that time and he
had been greatly prospered materially and
spiritually.
He had found some in Pine street
church who had been doing the same
thing, and they had been happy and
prosperous. He had yet to find a man
who had followed this plan and not been
happy.
1T means the giving of ten cents OF
every dollar you earn to the Lord You
think at first that it is rather heavy
dose for you to have only ninety cents
and the Lord ten cents. But it is good
medicine to bring about happiness. 1t
never was known to choke anybody who
took it. 1t may cause little coughing at
first, but if you take it long enough il
will surely result in happiness.

ROASTED PUP MEAT.

Lake Benton News: Last Friday
one of the members of our junior popu-
lation became the happy possessor Of
very valuable (?) hairless specimen
of the canine specie about day or
two old, and upon becoming convinced
in his mind that the animal was cold,
presumably on account of its being
devoid of all vestige of clothing, took
it to a neighbours and put it in the ov-
en- of a cook stove. Unwittingly the
lady of the house built up a fire to
prepare dinner and after time, owing
to strange sounds coming from the
stove, became convinced that some
thing was wrong. On investigating
what was her surprise to find that
she had unconsciously roasted a
strange and rare morsel. Alas, the
rescue came too late. Poor doggie had
breathed his last much to the grief Of
it's young owner.

SURETIES SUED.
County Commences Suit AGAINST
Citizens Bank Bondsmen.

On last Thursday morning, after
the appearance of The GAZETTE,
Coroner Gibson served complaints
and summons on all of the Redwood
county sureties of the Citizens Bank
as a safe county depository for
$3,642.74, money on deposit in the
bank belonging to Redwood county
at the time that the bank suspended
permanently. The sureties include
Dwight Bissell, j. NJ. Huntington, w.
P. Huntington, and Harriet S. Turrell
of this city and w. T. Donaldson and
r. P. Lewis of St. Paul. The fact
that Sheriff Mead was one of the
sureties made it necessary for Coroner
Gibson to exercise his official pre-
negative and serve the complaints.
The county commissioners practi-
cally authorized the action at the July
session but secrecy was maintained.
1t is claimed by the prosecution that
one of the sureties made complaint
that some of his fellow sureties were
transferring their property in order to
to avoid the payment of their share
of the deficiency that might arise by
reason of the bank not paying out and
hence the complaint and attachments
of the property of all parties on the
bond. The complaint itself states:
That the defendants above named have
assigned, secreted and disposed of their
property, and are about to assign, secrete
and dispose of their property with intent to
delay and defraud their creditors, especially
this plaintiff, the county"
A GAZETTE reporter has called on
every one of the bondsmen named in
the complaint, residing in Redwood
county, with the exception of Mrs.
Turrell, and each and every one of
them stated that they were willing to
made the deficiency good as soon as it
was SO agreed and as soon as it was
learned how much the bank would
nav ont.

Rea made q hundred mile bicycle trip
last Sunday in about eight and one
half half hours, says the Tracy
Herald. The party left here at five
q. m. and in less than thirty minutes
we're at Walnut Grove, a distance of
seven and a half miles. Lamberton
was reached in one hour and fifteen
minutes nineteen and one-half miles.
After pause of about one hour the
party proceeded to Redwood Falls,
about thirty miles farther, and arrived
there in just three hours. About six
hours we're pleasantly spent in the
beautiful city and the party started
homeward over the same route and
arrived at Tracy shortly after dark.
Several members of the party might
have made better time but out of re-
gard for the tenderfeet-the editor in
particular, who had been bicycle
crank only five days-they did not
separate. Several exciting incidents
we're brought to view on the trip, and
the fact was pointed out that in Red
wood county there is good field for
missionaries. One family was visited
about twelve miles south of Redwood,
several children and parents, all Of
whom were nearly or quite destitute
of clothing. The skin was nearly
black with dirt and covered with scabs
and fly bites. The floor of the house
was strewn with straw and filth and
to live within would certainly bring
disease to hog, but, fortunately for
the children, most of them preferred
lounging in the dirt out of doors.

DR.. SWIFT'S MEDITATION.

To THE ED1roR:-Once on a time,
many years ago, a company of school
boys, four or five in number, whose
ages ranged from IA to 10 years, took
it into their heads to go into their
neighbours sugar camp and have q
huge time at candy pull. Accord
ing to appointment they vent and
finding everything to their liking, we're
soon in the midst of what appeared to
be an sll-round delightful candy-pull.
After having enjoyed it to their fill
and leaving everything as they found
it, as far as possible, they extinguished
their fire, parted company for the
night and wended their way to their
several homes. One of that company
OF boys at least, if not more, was in the
practice on retiring for the night to
kneel at his bedside and say his even
ing prayers; but that night he got in
to bed without praying. The fact of
the business was, he had no heart to
pray, and thought it mockery in the
eyes of God to try to pray; but, on
mature reflection made up his mind
that wrong-doing and praying could
not be congenial companions, and re-
solved that they should forever part
company.

ONLY ONE WORLD.
TWO People In 1t -. "Wifey
and ="

John Car came down town a few
days ago exhibiting very black eye,
says the Olivia Press. Meeting his
brother Emery, who very solicitously
inquired the cause of his ebony hue
optical, John explained that tramp
had called at his place the evening
before and asked for something to
eat. Upon being refused he landed a
heavy blow upon Johns eye that
caused the disco]oration. John i'm
mediately began to wipe up that por-
ton of the terrestrial sphere in the
vicinity of his residence with the
tramp to such an extent that the sum-
mer tourist begged that his life might
be spared. Emery was naturally very
much incensed at the tramp for his
conduct and condoled with his brother
over his misfortune in receiving such
a black eye.
Later developments showed, how
ever, that the accident was caused in
an entirely different way. 1t appears
that in the evening mentioned that
John retired to his couch and was
soon in the realms of Morpheus. His
wife, in preparing to seek the side of
her husband, noticed large ugly spi-
der directly over the spot where Johns
head was reposing in slumber. She
bethought herself that it would not
be pleasant sensation to have the
spider descend and alight upon the
face of the sleeper during the night,
so providing herself with broom in
one hand and lamp in the other she
advanced to rid the bed chamber OF
the spiders noxious presence. When
close enough she brought the broom
around with a swish, but alas-instead
of accomplishing her purpose the hot
lamp chimney was knocked off the
lamp and allghted on the eye of he,
spouse. With voice not unlike ar
Indian yell he ]eaped from the bed
and executed a dance that would
cause Sioux warrior:to turn pale with
envy. Of course he had to assign
some reason for having black eye
and he fabricateds the: tramp story
Emery is wondering if he would no,
be justified in treating his brother al
John claimed he treated the tramp fol
the deception practiced upon him.
