EdiForiOl Comment.

The Grand Haven Tribune wants a
lake shore district, composed of Van Blu
rem, Berrien, Allegan, Ottawa and Mus
kegon counties, made in the new con-
gressional apportionment. Ottawa is
tired of being the tail to Kent county's
kite. So far as Van Bunen is concerned
the old districtis good enough, and the
proposed one would probably also
be satisfactory. Van Buren has be
come so accustomed to being the tail to
somebody's congressional kite that il
makes little difference whose kite il is.

Mrs. RatcIiff sat up tiil daybreek with
a shotgun on one knee, and restless
baby on the other, and remarked after
wards that she didn't sleep half the
night
Ronald watched her as she stood like
an Amazon in the doorway and gave
two long echoing blasts on the horn.
Then she came back to him.
well / reckon you had obleeged to
do it, as she looked into the room on
the right at the little box cradle. Mr.
Ratcliff lowed you an sgd would have
taste O. one another's gore fore long;
he lowed he'd never seed a man with
yore reckless nerve, an that Hart never
would sleep till he'd bucked ag'in it.
The baby being quiet, she stepped
back TO the door. Il see Mr.. Ratcliif
comm lickity-split through the broom
sedge. We agreed when thar was any
thing important fur me to blow twice:
l reckon he'll think the house is afire.
My la! did you ever see a body ske-
daddle like that? You'd think hoop
snake was at his heels! Nothin' amt

husband); you are wanted-that's
ALI" She stood in the doorway and
waved her hands. 81 want i'm to see
I'm unframed ur he'd break his fool
neck"
A moment later the sheriff came into
the passage painting and perspiring.
'Well, / lowed the niggers had riz, "
he laughed.
Briefly Ronald explained what he had
come for and Ratcliff pulled his long
brown beard thoughtfully. He would
have made joke if he were at a funeral
and the joke had been at the expense
of the corpse.
cts bado on me" he said, drily, ''if yon
fellers kill out many more ringleaders

if L can't git you up a bond. You are
toe good citizen to be stuck in a COM
mon jail. We cayn't do a thing till
we've had a committal trial. To
tell you the truth, 1 don't like
the looks of the business. Thad
Williams is a devil on wheels; he'll give
you trouble. What he'll swear won't
be prompted by the angels, an his
threat shows his hand. But his testi-
mony. true or untrue, will go as fur
at court as a presidin' elders. Many

Lifting his hat, he

to his gloom. Lifting his hat, he
turned away.
There was an open passage between
the two front rooms of the sheriff
house. and at a washtub, on a little
back porch, battling stick in hand, he
saw Mrs. Ratcliff. She was about 80
years of age, but might easily have
proved that she was a third older, if
her appearance had been taken as testi-
mony.
Ronald raped on the door-facing to
attract her attention, and when she
looked up he asked her if her husband
was at home.
HE was jest this minute" she said,
coming forward and wiping her hands
on her apron. HE took his gun Jest
now and went into the strip of woods
down thar at the foot o the field. Is it
anything Important"
4 came TO turn myself over to him.
Mrs. Ratcliff: if you could send for
him, perhaps he would like for you to
do it,
Il could blow the dinner horn" she
betrayed no surprise. if she felt any,
over his announcement. 1T might
wake the baby, but 1 reckon 1 could
quiet it down ag'in."
She gave him seat in the passage
and took his hat and laid it, according
to rules of hospitality. on her bed in
the room on the left. Then she reached
up for the cows horn, which hung on
nail on the porch.
Have you got yoreself in trouble,
Mr.. Fanshaw?" she asked, as she raised
the horn TO her lips.
I've killed Sydney Hart. Mrs. Rat
cliff" He gave this explanation after
a slight hesitation, for he feared that
being 2 woman and alone with him it
might upset her nerves.
You don't say" she calculated;
well, I'll be switched"
She did not seem more surprised than
if he had told her that he had had a
tooth extracted, and then he remern-
bered that she had been Ratcliff's com
panion IL many rough experience.
One night when he was taking three
desperadoes to jail and had stopped at
home for refreshments, he found that
the mountain streams ahead were so
much swollen by recent rains that ne

He would have comforted her If he
could. but there was nothing in his
mind to say. The awful realization was
stealing back upon him that in killing
sgd Hart he had blighted his whole fu-
ture, covered the sun of his hopes with
human blood. They drove out into an
open space where cotton-fields
stretched out on one side. Behind them
now doomed the white facade of earn
leigh. 4 score of negroes were picking
cotton beyond the rail fence, but they
did not look up. Ronald was congratU-
lating himself on this, knowing that
the sheriff lived only little further on,
but his citation on this score was short
of life, for just then horseman APP
peared in front of them. 1t was Capt.
Wrinkle, riding like an Englishman, ris
ing and falling in his stirrups. As his
trotting horse brought him swiftly
nearer he lifted his hat and bowed to
Evelyn. Evidently he had recognized
Ronald and he showed much surprise.
Looking back our hero saw that he had
refined his horse in and was staring
after them in a bewildered fashion.
Evelyn gave her companion com
prehensive glance. Never mind" she
said, hell tell everybody he knows
that he has seen us together, but you
and / have other things 70 think about.
VIII my love console you at alp"
More than anything in the world"
"Well, remember" they are now in
sight of the sheriff's house, a five
roomed erection with a porch over
which clambered a wealth of vines,
remember that L shall be thinking of
you every minute"
Thank you for that" he said, and
added: Il might as well get out here
and walk up to the house"
Her only answer was to whip up the
pony; her face was pinched by pain as
she drew up at the gate in front of the
house. He got out.
"Good-by," he said.
She held out her hand.
"Good-by," she echoed, and as he took
her hand he felt her quivering fingers
tighten round his own. Il am going to
pray for you night and day." she said.
And then she turned her pony and drove
slowly homeward. As he was entering
the gate, he saw her stop and look
back; then she signaled him to come to
her. Obeying, he found her face wet
with tears.
rs there nothing can do for you?"
she questioned.
He reflected, and then:
IF you should happen to meet David
on your way back, please tell him what
/ have done, and that 1 came to the
sheriff"
Il wish it were something harder"
she said, pressing her handkerchief to
her twitching lips. ''Oh, it is so awful
there is so little to hope for-you see
you are so despondent!"
He could not deny this last charge;
her very words seemed to add weight

THE FORCE OF HABIT.
With an Illustration OF How Com
pIeteIy One Habit May Sup
plant Another.

@Habit is a curious thing" said Mr..
Joggleton, ''but the completeness
with which one habit can be sup
planted by another seems more Gu
rious still
Il had a chair that / had used for
years. and which, 1 was firmly con-
vineed, was by long odds the most
comfortable chair ever made. After
breakfast, when 1 read the paper,
l used to sit in that chair, and after
dinner at night settled down into it,
with a cigar, in peace and happiness
and thought there never was a chair
that combined so many good points
as to height and pitch of seat and
slope of back and all that; L had
never seen a chair that suited me so
we'll
''But one day this chair was tipped
over, or something or other happened
to it don't know what-but some
thing so serious that it was put out
of commission. With our usual con-
servative slowness, we put off from
day to day and from week to week
getting that chair repaired, and, as a
matter of fact, it was two or three
years before we had it fixed up and
brought into use again. Meanwhile,
1 had siy., led out another chair which
/ came commonly to occupy. This
didn't begin to be, at first, so COM
Portable as the old one had been, but
gradually its objectionable points dis
appeared, and I'm blessed if it didn't
begin to develop good points that I
had never suspected in it, and l came
at last to look upon 1t as a very COM
Portable sort of chair, indeed. But
at last the old chair, the good old
chair, was fixed up again and brought
back into use, and the day it appeared
l looked forward to settling down in
it at night with the old-time comfort
But when, with all those pleasant
anticipations, came to sit in it again
/ did not find the pleasure l had ex-
pected it was too high, or too low
or the seat sloped too much, or some
thing-I don't know what; it wasn't
as it used to be-to me. l tried il
once or twice more after that and
then gave it up and went back to the
new chair. My new habit had become
firmly fixed. 1 liked the new chair
better, and now, as l settled down
in it, its good points were at once
emphasized and softened. and round
ed into completeness. and 1 accepted
it in full as the chair of satisfying
comfort and wondered as 1 looked
across at the other what l ever could
have seen in it that made me like it
so much.

Rains Have Made Changes.

The numerous rains that have fall.
en- in this part of the state since Aug
) have made great changes in the face
of the country. Grass is growing rap
idly again and stock have all the range
desired. The low places are full OF
water, and mud holes in the road
abound, showing the ground is well
soaked. Vegetation is growing last
and a second crop of hay in many
spots will be cut, while new upland
grass will make considerable hay.
Flax that was not killed is growing
fast and if frost does not prevent will
make fair crop in good many fields
Millet, potatoes, vegetables and corn
are doing well. A good deal of feed
Will be cut from oat fields. The wheat
crop. however, was not helped any by
the rains.
The rains will make fall blowing
easy, and give the needed moisture
for another year. which was not had
this spring. People feel greatly en-
couraged and are arranging to con-
tinue farm work the same as ever.
While the northwest caught a dry
spell at the wrong time in 1900. no one
believes that it will occur again in
many years-as lightning does not
strike twice in the same place.
Another heavy rain, accompanied
bv hail. fell between Medina and the
Missouri river yesterday afternoon.
The streams and the swales were full
of water a portion of the storm
reached here but there was little rain.

Taxpayer Kicks on Roads.

The Alert has a communication
from a taxpayer regarding the grading
by the county road grader. He wants
to know where those good grades are.
He says he does not find them along
the J. & n. and that there is not a
grade there where two teams could
pass, or where a team could haul a
load over in wet weather. He says a
5000 grade was put in on the
south line Of section 3-14O-64,
through an alkali slough, "a line
that has been closed and condemned
for years, while the county bought and
now uses a road a quarter Of a mile
south Of that grade which can be
Travelled on at all times and require,
no grading. The commissioners had
it plowcd, he says, but failed 20 disc it
and of course it is rough. The tax
payer would like TO have said road
leyelcd and confer favor on the
travelling public from the north.

BAD STORM ON THE SLOPE
SUNDAYS Storm Does a Great Deal of
Damage in Western Portion
of the State.

A heavy hail storm struck the west
ern part of the state Sunday afternoon
along the Northern Pacific. and for a
distance of ten miles this side OF Bis
marck the storm was the worst OF the
year. The streams were filled with
the hail and in appearance the water
seemed to have thin coating OF ice.
A box car on the siding at Mckenzie
was blown on to the main line and for
distance of two miles it Travelled at
rate equal to the North Coast Linn
tied. The section men followed it and
finally set the brakes. The train
which left here at 1920 was tagged
and pushed the car to the next sta
tion. The territory struck by hail
had no crops of consequence and the
damage on that account was not great.
Considerable damage was done by the
wind.
A Dickinson dispatch says: AS a
result of the storm, the streams are
on rampage and bridges are out on
the Northern Pacific a few miles west
of this city. The westbound North
Coast Limited has been held here all
day, but goes on tonight, how far is
uncertain. The water has turned the
town of Medora, situated in the Band
Land Basin, into lake. Two horses
were drowned and a number OF per-
sons injured in the storm. In the
path of the storm-several miles wide
there was no grass left on the
ground. A terrible rain followed the
wind and hail storm, temporarily
swelling the stream to a great depth.
a team belonging to Robert Roam
was killed by lightning four miles
south of WaShburn in the storm.
There were eight persons in the Wag-
on when the bolt struck, and six of
them were knocked off, shocked but
not injured, while the team was killed
outright. 1t was one of the narrOWest
escapes on record.

Heavy Hail Again.

Another heavy hail storm struck
the northern part Of the county Sun
day night and did plenty OF damage.
The storm broke about O'Clock and
passed north Of the lake about two
miles, extending east into Barnes
county. 1t did not get as far north
as COurtenay or Wimbledon, but in
the strip Of country that it did visit,
it did great damage. The wind was
as destructive as the hail, blowing
down small buildings, breaking win
dow glass, and moving larger buildings
from their foundations. The Dig barn
built by the Gray brothers on the
farm now occupied by Samuel Lily,
was partly destroyed, the north and
west sides being torn Off. Among the
losses by hail and wind were: +. Gen
eel, entire wheat crop that was about
to be cut. Ledke's grain, Theo. Web
ber's flax and oats. +. Pearce, flax and
house partly destroyed, Z. Arndt,
flax. Veins 600 acres Of fax and oats.
John Casper had two horses Killed by
lightning in the storm. Potato vines
and corn were stripped clean by the
hail, which was not very large IN SIZE
but was very thick on the ground.
How much damage was done as the
storm moved further east from the
above locality is not yet reported, but
it must have been great. The rain
that accompanied the storm was very
heavy and the prairie was a sheet OF
water after the storm had passed.
Some of the farmers who had a little
grain left from the drouth, seem 70
feel as if fate was pursuing them re-
lentlessly this season. There was ut
tie or no insurance on crops.
