LITTLE ALL AlONEY.

Little All Aloney's feet
Filter pattcr in the hall,
And his mother runs to .:.cet
And to kiss her toddling sweet
Ire perchancc he fall.
de is, oh, so weak and small!
Yet what danger shall he fear
When his mother hovereth near
Ana lie hears her cheering call.
All Aioney?'
Little All Aloney's face,
1t is all aglow with glee
AS around the romping place
At q terrifying pace
Lung&th, plungeth he!
And that hero seems to be
All unconscious of our cheers,
Only onc dear voice he hears
Calling reassuringly,
All Aioney!'
Though his legs bend with their load.
Though his feet they seem SO small
That you cannot help forbode
Some disastrous episode
II hat noisy hall,
Neither threatening bump nor fall
Little All Aloney fears,
But with secret bravado steers
Whittier ome that CHEEKY call,
"All AlOney!"
All, that in the years to como,
When he shares of sorrows store,
When his feet are chill and numb,
When his cross is buruensome,
And his heart is sore,
Would hat he could hear once more
The gentle voice he used to hear,
Divine with mother love and cheer,
Calling from yonder spirit shore,
"All, all alone!'
Eugene Field.

RuskiD.

A story illustrating Ruskin's whim-
sicality is given by the New York Trib-
II on the authority of a friend Of the
great writer. "One morning, he notes,
''as we were coming out of chapel he
said to US, 4 ought not to have come to
chapel this morning We asked him in
some establishment why. He said, I
am going to write a critique on IS
pictu,e in the Academy, and I want to
be in a perfectly diabolical temper"

Advice to q Young .Blackbird.
All there you are, let out alone at last.
I've watched your goings on for some days
past.
Though you may try to hide your youth by
cheek,
I know your age-you left the nest last week.
Come here and let me give you some advice.
1t shall be useful, kindly and concise,
For your new lie has jars as well as joys,
And there are Gets and catapults and boys.
When on the lawn, be vigilant and firm
And deity learn to land the unwilling worm.
When times are hard and every lawn is dry,
Give up the usual worm and try the fly.
Feast through the summer, but when autumn
comes
AbstemiouS be, but chiefly with my plums.
Thank man in winter for his crumbs and grain
And in the summer praise the Lord for rain
In nesting time don't build too near the sod;
Choose a thick holly and then trust in God.
Get a good mate, with kindly heart, and tail
Managed with grace, not Haunted like a fail.
When you fall out, as will do hens and hubs,
Don't make it known by scolding through the
shrubs.
And now about your singing just IA word
Practice for skill, not merely to be heard.
You ought to nave a voice of some repute;
Your fathers voice, you know, is like a flute.
Keep your song low and MARBLE from the chest
A mellow, rich coiltralto suits you best.
Whate'er you do, don't trifle with the air,
But work it out with conscientious care.
"Give yourself airs" but don't Ego on the
street.
Or your best passages too oft repeat.
At early morn a cheerful voice maintain,
But in the evening sing your tenderest strain.
Work hard, be true and for perfection search.
Then in your art you'll take the highest perch.
Think DER whit I've said. Remember that
Where'er you are-loOk Outi here comes the cat
! Academy.

Two Pussy Cats.

THE PET CAT.
Dainty little ball of fur, Sleek and round and
fat,
Yawning through the lazy hours, some ones
household cat,
Lying on a bed of down, decked in ribbons gay,
What a pleasant life you lead, whether night
or day!
Dining like an epicure from a costly dish,
Served with what you like the best-chicken,
meat or fish,
Purring at an outstretched hand, knowing but
caresses,
Half the comforts of your life, pussy, no one
guesSes.
Romping through the house at will, racing
down the hall,
Full of pretty. playful pranks, loved and
praised by all,
choicest spot,
Favored little household puss, happy is your
lot.
Sleeping on my lady's lap or doing by the
CRATE,
Fed with catnip tea if i'll, what a lucky fate!
Loved in life and mourned in death, and stuffed
maybe at that,
And kept upon the mantelshelf-dear pet cat.
THE CAT.
Poor little beggar cat, hollow eyed and gaunt,
Creeping down the alleyway like a ghost of
want,
Kicked and beat by thoughtless boys, bent on
cruel pl!.y,
What a sorry life you lead, whether night or
Cay!
Hunting after crusts and crumbs, gnawing
mcatless bones,
Trembling at a human step, fearing bricks
and stones,
Shrinking at an outstretched hand, knowing
only blows,
Wretched little beggar cat, born to suffer woes.
Stealing to an open door, craving food aid
heat,
Frightened off with angry cries and broomed
into the street,
Tortured, leased and chased by dogs through
the lonely night,
Homeless little beggar cat, sorrow is your
plight.
Sleeping anywhere you can, in the rain and
snow,
Waking in the cold, gray dawn, wondering
where to go,
Dying in the street at last, starved to death
at that,
Picked up by the scavenger-poor tramp cat.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

THE COUNTY LOSES S3,642
County Funds in Insolvent Citizens Bank
Creates Big Legal Fight and the
Sureties Win.
Held that Commissioners Erred in Accepting
Draft on Bank in Which the Cit
liens Had no Funds.

of the defunct Citizens Bank the coun-
ty sought to recover from the bonds
men a balance of $3,642.74, which was
due from the bank. The bond on
which suit was brought took effect
May 4th, 1894, and the county claimed
that after the date of the bond and be-
fore the bank suspended that there
had been deposited in the bank by
the county sums aggregating in
amount $19, ,959.95 and admitted that
the Bank had paid out upon the order
of the county sums aggregating in
amount $16,317.21 leaving the above
balance still due the county, and the
books of the county treasurer showed
that state of facts.
"The defendants, upon cross-exam
ination of ex-County Treasurer
Kuenzli, developed the fact that thu
sum of $19, $685. with which the
bank was charged was made up BY
including one item of a draft on tn,
National Park Bank of New Yorl
made by the Citizens Bank May Sd
1894, for $5,341.79, which was tn,
amount due from the bank, as forme
depository, to the county at the tim'
this new bond was given. There wer'
not funds in the National Park Banl
to meet this draft and no attempt wa
ever made to collect it but it was helt
by the county treasurer for sever
days and when the new bond was ap
proved was delivered up to the Citi
zens Bank to be cancelled.

The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1895-11-21

It looks as though the county was
going to lose $3,642.74 by reason Of
having that much money on deposit
in the Citizens Bank of Redwood
Falls atthe time that bank passed in
to liquidation. So far as the present
bondsmen are concerned it is certain
that the county is a loser and unless
County Attorney Clague or the COM
missioners decided to prosecute the
bondsmen during and before Emil
Kuenzli's career as treasurer was on
the loss is certain.
The case came up before Judge
Webber last Saturday forenoon.
County Attorney Clague and the as
sistant attorney general represented
the county while Messrs. Somerville
& Olsen of Sleepy Eye and B. H,
Schneider of st. Paul represented the
bondsmen. A jury had been called
and O. B. Turrell was on the witness
stand. The testimony being brought
out was on a certain draft issued by
Mr.. Turrell in favor of Emil Kuenzli
for $5,341.79 on the National Park
Bank of New York.
In order that the readers of THE
GAZETTE may receive correct informa-
alton on the subject The GAZETTE has
had prepared by one of the most
prominent attorneys in the State who
was present a careful and concise
statement of the case and the point
raised. It is as follows:
