Miss Audry Goes, Too.

Brad. Trask unexpectedly arrived
here last week after an absence of
eleven years, the last five of which
have been spent in Alaska. The facili-
ties for getting to and from that gold
en- Mecca were not so modern when
he first went there as they are now,
and he encountered many hardships,
but he likes the country and declares
he would rather live there than any
where else. After visiting his mother
and relatives here The will return to
Seattle: and Immediately proceed to
Alaska, where he has interests that
are quite Aattering. His. daughter,
Miss Audry will follow him next
spring. Accompanying Mr.. Trask were
Fred Mcclellan and Herb Gates OF
Princeton, who have some promising
copper claims to which they will re.
turn in the spring.-EM R;ve, Sto,>

Farmers and the Census.

il The twelfth census of agriculture
will be taken on June l, 1900, but it
will be of the crops, products, fruits,
etc., OF the calendar year 1899 only.
Farmers who do not keep book ac-
counts of their transactions may forget
the items which the census enumera-
tors are required by law to gather.
If they do, since statistics cannot be
created and written in by the enumera-
tors or the officers at Washington,
those forgotten items will never ap-
pear in the census reports, and the
business of the communities for which
they are missing will compare less
favorably than it should with that OF
those which give fuller returns.
Agriculture is the foundation of ma.
terial wealth and prosperity -. 1t is
therefore Important that the statistics
which represent it should be full and
accurate. In order to insure that ac
curacy and fu1lness and to ala the PEG
pie in answering the questions which
the census enumerators will PROFOUND
an attempt is being made to induce al
farmers and producers to begin al
once to prepare written accounts show
ing the acreage, quantity and value O.
each crop raised by them in 1899 ani
the acreage and value of all til cir farm
products for 1899. If they prepare
such accounts and retain them unit
the enumerators arrive they MAY
rightfully claim the honor Of render
ing the twelfth, which comes at the
threshold of the twentieth century
the most perfect census of agriculture
ever taken.-Hutch;ns0 Times, =,

The Electric Road.

The suggestion of business man in
these columns last week that now
would be an excellent time to agitate
an electric railway to Anoka has met
with general approval. While the
UNION is not the prime mover, several
prominent business men have ex-
pressed a willingness to subscribe for
stock and the farmers in the country
through which the road would run
have called upon US to keep the matter
moving. The UNION is not in the
business of building railroads, but il
those interested make start people
who are in the business will probably
put in an appearance and help them
hustle.

Bull Fights.

In letter from F. G. Stamm who is
now located at Eagle Pass, Tex, he
tells the UNION of the opening of the
bull fight season across the line in
Mexico. The Southern Pacific ran a
special train of two sections, nineteen
cars in all, from San Antonio and
every car was loaded. There will be
bull fights every Sunday from this
time until about Jan. |.
The weather he says is fine. There
have been no frosts and the grass and
trees are all green. He states that he
had green corn on the cob for dinner
the day he wrote. - s%l5 q,

GONE TO HER REWARD.
Mrs. F. H. Roberts Died of Heart Disease
Last Tuesday.

Mrs. F. H. Roberts Died of Heart Disease
Last Tuesday.
After an illness of week Mrs. F. 81.
Roberts, wife of the pastor of the Meth
odist church in this village, was called
to her heavenly home.
Mrs. Roberts had returned from a
visit to relatives in Chicago only the
week before and was sick and ex-
hausted when she arrived in Prince
ton. For years she has been troubled
with her heart and this ailment was
aggravated by her recent trip. At
times her friends had hope but Sunday
she began to sink and after lingering
Monday she gave up the unequal strug-
gle and passed over to the land of
peace.
Yesterday services were held at the
church which were attended by large
number of our. citizens who gathered
to pay their last respects to the beloved
lady, and this morning the bereaved
husband left with the body for Barre,
Vermont, where it will be Inferred in
the family lot. The sympathy of the
entire community goes out to Rev.
Roberts in this sorrowful hour.
Eveline Sherman Jackson was born
in Barre, Vermont, Sept 10, 1888 and
died in Princeton Nov. p, 1899. She
was converted when young girl and
united with the Methodist Episcopal
church. On Jan. II, 1868, she was
united in marriage with Rev. Frank
H. Roberts. Her life has been given
to the church and her work as pas
tors wife was always cheerfully done.
She was naturally of a retiring, dispo-
sition but she always made host of
friends. She loved the people of Prince
ton and there was no place on earth
from which she would rather 60 to
heaven.
| Last Sunday when she knew the end
was near and her friends were gath
cred at her bedside she requested them
to sing ''Rock of Ages and after this
was done asked each one to pray. She
said II love this people and would 10
what could to bring them to Jesus"
Speaking of those who had gone be-
fore she said II won't be lonesome in
heaven Her end came peacefully
and she rests with loved ones awaiting
the call Of the resurrection morn

f. Little Linden Libby had miracul-

and although quite seriously injured
the chances for his ultimate recovery
are said to be good at this writing.
His father, Frank Libby was en-

sides and the little boy was playing in
the yard, with his cart. He, ventured
Too near the building and when the
side fell--a portion about 12xl6 feet

him as soon as possible and DR.. Tarbox
was summoned, who found on examina-

were broken, the right one near the
hip and his body was badly bruised.
No evidences Of internal injuries are
yet apparent and while the doctor is
not ready to state positively he thinks
there are none.

lin Wyanette at the age of 50. While

ment took place at the King cemetery
in >Wyanette. Mr.. Howard leaves a
wife and two married daughters to
mourn his loss.
