Bargains at Bradley's this week

One Sunday night, young man,
living not thousand miles away
from Napoleon, saw young woman
home from church for the first time.
She had cold; so had he. She conl-
planned of the cold just before they
reached the gate. He had procured
box Of troches for his throat and
had broken the box so that they
were loose in his pocket. AS they
parted at the gate he slipped his fin
gers into his pocket among the loose
troches and handed her one with the
remark that it would help her cold if |
she would only put it in her mouth |
and let it slowly dissolve. They |
parted and the young man was as
tonished on the following day at re-
ceiving dainty note saying: "The
compound cathartic did its work ad-
mirably; am cured of my cold, and
my esteem for you is entirely dis
solved"
Geo. Daum and Geo. March have
returned from Albany, New York,
where they were called aswitnesses
before the Uuited States court in the
case of Geo. March, of New York,
who was personating our George
March, assuming his company and
regiment, Co. ID. 124th Regiment, for
the purpose of defrauding the gov
ernment by securing q pension He
was apprehended by special pension
examiners and brought to trial, by
being indicted for perjury. The
case has been continued until March
| 18th, and will be tried at Utica, New
York, before the U. s. Court, when
Messrs. Daum and March will be
again called as witnesses. Mr.. Daum
was Lieut., and acting Captain OF
Co. D., the company In which Geo.
March, of Flatrock township, this
county, enlisted, and his testimony
clearly convicts the New York Geo.
March as a perjurer. The case is
clear against him and the peniten-
tiary will be his home for q season
after March nth.

In a recent decision, the Minnesots
supreme court declares that the com.
mon law rule making the husband
liable for damages for slanderous
words uttered by the wife, sven though
he was neither present nor a partici,
pant, is not abrogated by any statute.
and therefore holds good in that state.
II a husband is civilly responsible fol
slanderous words spoken by his wife,
on the same principle and logically he
is criminally responsible. Yet, even
10 Minnesota, no jury would convict OF
court sentence, a husband on this
ground, because it is contrary to JUS
tice to punish one person for ~another's
crime. Civil responsibility is equal,
unreasonable and obnoxious, and the
lawmakers Of the state will be derelict
In duty II at the first opportunity pre-
sented they shall fail to abolish il.
The rule was perhaps good enough
when the wife was the husbands chat
tel, drudge and slave, but In these
days of boomers, bikes and woman's
II is absurd and an anachron..

pay off their indebtedness Of about $780,
900. The disappointment was great, there
fore, when It was found the collections
amounted to only $500, mostly In pledges,
and that the subscriptions received since
tho meeting have brought the amount Up
70 only about $1,000, 1t is evident that tho
