KELLS-In the township Of Melrose,
at midnight of Sunday, Feb.,i 14th
of cancer, Isabella, beloved wife of
Stephen Kells, in the fifteith year of
her age.
While not unexpected, the announce
ment of the death of Mrs. Kells brought
grief to the hearts of scores of friends.
For two years or more she has been
a patient sufferer from that uncurable
disease to which she finally succumbed.
Her christian fortitude and resigna-
ton manifested an innate heroism
which was pathetic in the extreme. She
was a devoted wife and mother, and
leaves memory to her dear ones to be
cherished as priceless legacy. She
was unusually bright and helpful, and
discharged every duty in life with con-
scientious faithfulness. Blessed are
the dead who rest in the Lord.
Isabella Duncan was born at Month
cello N. Y, of James and Margaret
Duncan, in 1847, and came with the
family to Hastings, Mimi, where she
resided two years, and after two years
spent in Minneapolis, came to the town
of Grove, where her parents then re-
sided. In 1876 she married Stephen
Kells, and removed to the home which
she has helped develop, only short
distance from where her parents form
erly lived. She was themother of seven
children, the youngest three and the
Oldest seventeen years of age, all of
whom are living. Her aged father, two
sisters and one brother, George Dun
can survives her. 10 the afflicted hus-
band and children who have met in her
death an irreparable loss, as also to
the members of the family of her child
hood, universal sympathy goes out.
The world is better for her having lived
in it-poorer for her leaving it. She
was buried from the Episcopal church
on Wednesday.
MAHANNA-In the town of Ashley,
on Sunday, February 18th 1897, Mrs.
Ellen Mahanna, aged SO years.
Deceased, whose maiden name was
O'Connor, was born in County Killar-
ney, Ireland, where she lived until she
was nineteen years of age when she
came to this country with her parents,
and settled at Brockport, N. Y, where
she was married to Micheal Mahanna,
and removed west in 1861, settling at
LIE Sueur in this State. Seventeen years
later they came to this vicinity, living
for time in Long Prairie, and finally
settling on the farm west of the city,
just over the Ashley town line, where
her husband died in 1888. She made
her home with her children, James,
Morris, Margaret, now Mrs. t. r.
Lynch and Mary. After the marriage of
Morris, who removed to a home of his
own, she lived with her unmarried chill
dren, James and Mary.
She was a woman of great strength
of character, highly esteemed, and her
death will De keenly felt, not only by
her surviving children. but by large
circle of neighbors and friends. She
was buried from the Irish Catholic
church on Tuesday, and was followed
to her last resting place by a long and
and Borrowing cOrtege.

DAWES INDIAN COMMISSION.

The representatives of the Dawes In
dian commission and of the Choctaws
and Chiokasaws, executed at Atoka last
week JOINT agreement or treaty smilar
to that agreed to by the Choctaws alone
last year, but which the Chickasaws re.
iected at that time. The latest reports
are to the effect that the Chckssaws as a
nation will not ratify the treaty, in which
event the Atoka arrangement will not be
q finality, but only step-an indication.
The weakness of the treaty which may be
said to be under consideration is, that 1t
prolongs the tribal arrangements for
eight years from March 4, 1898, which is
too long. There is no necessity for the
continuance of the Indian nation fraud
and absurdity for such length of time.
Every day that the tribal governments
continue is day of injury to the best in
terests of the territory and vast ma jor-
ity of it's people, including in the word
people, white, colored and red. The dis-
position of the Indians to refuse the even
unreasonably liberal eight years arrange
ment will only hasten matters. Another
treaty, if another is found necessary, will
prescribe q shorter period.

UNRUlY STUDENTS,

About 800 Princeton students last week
raided circus and gave the public and
police an exhibition of ruffianism that
would disgrace gang of professional
hoodlums. Their first attack was made
during the parade. They pulled the
clowns off their donkeys and took pos
session Of their mounts, tore the trap
pings off the wagons and the animals and
misbehaved themselves generally. In
the evening they rnshed to the reserved
seats, that is, they violently deprived those
who had paid for them of their property
and rights. Later they broke into the
ring, and battle with clubs took place
between them and the circus people in
which several of the employees of the show
were badly injured.
1t seems strange that young men en-
gagged in getting an education that is sup
posed to elevate and refine them, should
so far forget their alleged purpose as to
commit breach of the peace IN pursuit
of so.caled "fun."
People put up with great deal ofnon-
sense from these unruly young hoodlums,
because they are college boys, but there
is such thing as abusing good nature,
and carrying their pranks to dangerous
and foolish extent
A hoodlum is hoodlum whether he be
found with his name on college register
or police station register. There is no
reason why the police should not do their
duty in the case of one as we'll as the
other.
Suppose a gang of iron moulders, or
800 delegates to butchers annual picnic
had attempted the FRANKS INDUCED in by
these Princeton boys. How far would the
police have permitted the seance to con-
tinue? There should be no discrlmina-
ton in this matter. Boys who are old
enough to attend college are old enough
to know how to behave themselves in a
DESTROYS manner. Lacking in this knowl-
edge it should be driven into their frowsy
heads with the clubs of policemen.

AN INCREASED TAX ON BEER.

The Republican members of the senate
finance committee are reported to be in
favor of increasing the tax on beer and
tabacco. Adding 81 barrel to the beer
tax and increasing the tobacco tax to
some extent will, it is estimated, yield an
additional revenue of $70000,000. That
would obviate the necessity for increas-
ing the taxes on the necessaries of life,
such as food, fuel, lumber, and clothing.
Those articles ought to be exempt as far
as possible. The best system of taxation
is that which bears lightest on those least
able to pay. An additional tax on beer
would be oppressive to no one. An in
crease of the tax on tobacco might be
borne without distress to any consumer.
But heavy tax on the necessaries of life
is draft on the energies and industries
of the people. The necessary expenses
of the government must be met, but there
are better ways of achieving that result
than by taxing those articles which every,
body is compelled to buy, and without
which the poor cannot exist.

MUSIC FOR ALL,

An experiment is to be tried in the
musical line this week at Brooklyn, N.
Y, of popular interest. The Metropoli-
tan Permanent orchestra, incorporated
under the laws of the state of New York
will open series of six concerts at the
Clermont avenue rink, with admission
and seat in any part of the building at so
cents. The old complaint that tirst-class
musical entertainments are too dear for
the masses of this country, has been in
the main just. In Germany fine orches-
trial concerts may be heard for one mark,
"a cents, and the schilling concerts in
London ale immensely successful. Con-
sidering the higher rate of wages paid in
the United States concert with SO
cent admission is about on q par with the
German and London popular musical en-
tertainments. For several seasons past
the Seidel society have charged 25 and so
cents at the Brighton Beach concerts, but
the railroad fare to this resort was an
item that greatly increased the price.
The cheaper in the matter of admission
that these orchestral concerts become in
this country the better. For popular
music-music for the masses happy
medium should be found between light
and heavy compositions. It should be
kind of music that is educating, refining
and uplifting. No better kind of enter
tainment can be provided, and If there
were more of them, with the admission
put at figure that the masses Of the
people could afford, it would be the
means OF diverting patronage from the
low farce comedies of our popular thea
tera, and giving the common people an
