A certain young mar who does not
live a thousand miles away from here
went in his buggy recently to accom-
pany her TO church. On approaching
the objective point he ~carelessly hitch.
ed the horse neal the gate and stepped
into the house. His horse had made
frequent visits there before. and doubt
less though another step in The
proceedings was right at hand.
A horse cannot exactly talk in the
human language, yet of all the animal
creation it is probably the most easily
trained to understand the wishes and
commands of its master; and of course
we do moi know what commands that
Young man, possibly uneonsciousiy,
might have given utterance to as be-
drove along toward his best girls
house; but suffice it to say that so soon
as he was seated in the house, the
horse broke loose and rushed pellmelf
to town, needing neither hills, sand
beds, fence me nor stumps, until
he reached the clerks Office. There
he stopped short, and doubtless In
'1horseoIogy" was pleading for a docu-
ment for his mster which usually costs
$3.50.
The only explanation we can offer OF
this incident is thai the horse possibly
heard the young man refer while rid
ing along to the document that he'
wanted or intended to get from tbs
clerks Office; and SO the animal started
out to procure II for his master

Don't Kill The Towns Growth.

For many years the town Of Able
vile did not grow for the simple reason
that it was hemmsd in On all sides by
farms which we're not for sale. To-day
the suburbs and annexes to the town
are ample but the business centre is
hampered In its legitimate expansion
and Improvement by the high prices
asked for property. The following
from the Lafayette Advertiser is quite
applicable. here. "Our land owners
are too greedy. Exorbitant prices
are asked foa town lots. just think Of
it, in Lafayette, rs feet of land fof
$500. This might be a price asked III
New Orleans, New York and other large
cities but surely the gentleman who
offered those % feet for that fabulous
price; must have thought that d
Klandyke were underneath.
Gentlemen, our word for it, Lafay-.
cite. will never build up this way If
you were reasonable we might expect to.
double our population in a couple Of
years, but, with such greed, we shalt
stay in the old rut.

Sergeant Rohrer by the decided auburn ting

Poor Rohrer was taken down to Mend TIA,

The readers Of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages. and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct
ly upon the blood and mucous surfaces
Of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation Of the disease. and giving
the patient strength b,eb3ilding up the

WASHINGTON, Aug. N.-The war depart

Merritt at Manila and does not share the
anxiety of many Minnesotans about the vel
fare of the Thirteenth Minnesota. This calm

view of Gen. Corbin and the war department
oficials. If there was anything seriously
the matter with the Thirteenth's health
Gen Merritt would surely have adyerted to
it. The cable is open and working wei and
the oflc:a1s had no explanation to offer as
to why no private cable messages had been

parents and relatives. Gen. Corbin SAID the
department would hear with great prompt
