Each the Others Accuser.

The two bunked together at the
hotel where they were stopping and
one morning young Crawford awak-
ened before his companion to see the
door OF the room sjtr. Immediately
con jscturing that all was not RICH
ne looked under his pillow 10 find a
revolver his friend had given him
and also his money gone. He then
aroused his companion and made
known his suspicious, whe;eupon
the old huater said he had been
robbed, too. The old man had 300
and the boy s1i IN cash. ard the
youth at once accused his comrade of
roboing him. The old fellow OF
course flew into a rage and made a
counter accusation. For an instant
both were furious and each was
ready to annihilate the other. Then
Crawford suggested tha. both 90
down to the clerk in the hotel office
and be searched. The old man con-
scented and the result was that not a
trace Of the others property was
found about either. Then both we,e
convinced that they had been robbed
in their sleep. which no doubt was
the case. Mutual apologies were in
order and the two parted the best OF
friends. And Crawford feels that
the experience he has had more
than compensates him for his pc
cuniary loss, while he is .uuall v
happy to know that his contidencei a

Anyway.
Charles, son OF Hon. W. F. Craw-
ford, of Taylor Ridge, recently con-
cluded that he would like to make a
hunting trip north. Being naturally
fond Of adventure, he felt that
. trip into the wilds OF the north
unaided, except by such conditions
aud opportunities as he might avail
himself Of. would prove not only ex-
hilarating, but would afford such q
qualification Of a romantic tendency
as he cherished. The young mans
father consented to the proposition
and the boy Put out, going first to
Chicago. where he purchased a gun,
and then he went to Minneapolis,
his first actual base OF operations,
before invading the hun ing grounds.
In the Mill City young Crawford fell
IN with an old hunter and trspper,
Just such q person as he was looking
Tor, but while the hunter was will
ing to take him along on one
u htS UPS Ht UlNlneu tnat
the Rock Island county boy would
prove so much of q tenderfoot that
unless he cou d do something in the
way of dispatching game, his COM
partnership would prove q hinder
ance, and life was too short to take
any chances OF that kind. Accord
ingly the old man informed young
Crawford that he would take him
out on little rabbit hunt. and that
il he displayed the quality of marks
manship essential, ne would let him
60 to the game regions of the Dako-
tas with him on his next trip.
Crawford eagerly seized the chance
OF the preliminary hunt with the re-
suit that h. bagged IS out o! Is rab-
bits that came within range. The
old man was delighted with his
prospective ally. and the two went
to the Dakotas. The boys skill con-
tinued and among other game he
pulled down a deer. The two be-
came boon companions, ard after
their return from Minneapolis made
| u subsequent little tour ito Wiscou-
sin, and as before, with success. Re-
turning again to Minneapolis. tn, y
distributed their proceeds and Craw-
ford received a third.

The Building Boom Is On.

Signs of returning prosperity are evi.
dent on every hand, as the saw and
hammer are heard doing their work of
construction. The movement of erect
ing houses, usually deferred till spring
time, is already under way and the de-
mand for more houses is the best .indi-
cation that the town is advancing in
business interest.
Sprague and Schuman have leased the
two corner lots belonging to Mayer and

recently rode on it, as being without any
question the finest tram in the world
