Stan J. Donnelly, attorney for Uriah
%. .Greenough, convicted at the last
termof the district court on the charge
OF rape, has been making strenuous
efforts to secure new trial for his
client. The matter was recently SUBJ
mlttedd to Judge Searle on briefs and
last week he decided against the mo-
tiOn for new trial.
Mr. Donnelly commended that the
crime. must be proven beyond reason
able doubt, without the aid of confess
sions Or admissions of the defendant,
and that the testimony of an accom-
plice, coupled with admissions or con-
fessions of the defendant, were insult
ficient to convict. Mr.. Ross thought
otherwise and backed his assertions
with an array of references. The, Judge
carefully considered the matter and
decided that Mr.. Ross had the best of
the argument and therefore denied the
motion for a new trial.
The crime, it will be remembered
was a vile one, committed upon the
person of an insane woman and Green
ough will serve his time.

Making improvements.

Manager Galley has a crew of men at
work on the starch factory making
some extensive repairs and improve
ments. Last year the drying room
and engine and grating rooms we're
overhauled and new machinery, belts,
etc., put in and Mr.. Galley thought
that no further repairs would be nee
essary for some time. However, when
the crew began its annual overhauling
of the premises preparatory to starting
for the seasons run, it was discovered
that the tub room was sadly in need of
attention.. Not only had the tubs
themselves become so decayed that
their use for another season was i'm
possible, but the timbers, piers, etc.,
were so decomposed as to render it
necessary to practically rebuild that
portion of the factory. This the crew
is now doing and the work will be COM
pleted in time for the falls run. The
expense will reach figure somewhere
between 81, 500 and So 1000.

of, and on the same side as the single
pole, and the hay is unloaded from the
opposite side or ends. The tripod may
be slid along upon the plank when nee
essary to- lengthen the stack. This
method will save much time and labor
and with little skill, quite as credita-
5blea stack can be built as when pitched
by hand. Tame hay should not be al
lowed to get too ripe before cutting, as
it becomes woody and unpalatable and
the cattle waste more of it and do not
do so we'll on it. Clover should be cut
when about one-half of the heads are
brown, and timothy within 10 days
after the bloom appears.

An Old Settler Gone,

Oliver W. feathers, one of the old
settlers of our village, passed peace
fully away last Thursday afternoon at
his home on the north side. after
long illness caused by cancerous
trouble.
Mr.. feathers was born at Palmyra,
Maine, sixty-nine years ago. He came
west early settling first at St. Anthony,
then at Oak Grove and Spencer Brook
and finally settled on farm in the
vicinity of Princeton, where he lived
until he came to the village a few
years ago. Blessed with vigorous
constitution the dreadful disease had
hard battle.
A widow and seven children, Joseph
A., Charles H., Willis E., Frank w.,
and Eugene L., and Mrs. E. A. Briggs
and Mrs. George Simms, survive him.
The funeral services were conducted
at his late home Saturday afternoon,
Rev. J. K. Shuts officiating. :

Hay-Methods of Handling.

Where wild hay is cut on Doggy
meadows the scythe and mandrake
must continue to figure as the tools
chiefly used. But tame hay is taking
its place slowly, as new land is cleared.
On such fields it will frequently pay to
use mower even among the stumps.
The cutting bar should be easily ele-
waited, and a box of extra sections and
rivets kept on hand to repair damages.
Many fields that appear to be too
stumpy for the mower to make any
Roadway, may be cut by careful and
intelligent man at much less expense
than by hand, and where the area to
be cut is at all large, the saving will
go far towards defraying the first cost
of the mower. A narrow horse-rake
will effect like saving over hand
raking, even though a little raking
may be needed where the stumps are
too thick. Where large hay sheds or
barns are available, the track and fork
or sings will be used IN unloading.
Where the hay is stacked, it is still
possible: to use the hay fork to advan-
tage. "A set of three light, strong
poles, (dry poplar will do) about 25
feet long, two blocks and about 70 feet
of rope are required. The poles are
bolted together at top in form of tri-
pod, and a plank nailed at the bottom
Of two them, so as to set evenly on the
ground. The:thir is sharpened. The
hay fork, which costs about $3.50, is
slung on a rope tied at the apex of the
poles, and passed through block tied
to the same place; then down through
a second block tied at the base of one
of the Joined poles, from which point
the horses elevate the hay. A guy
rope is run from the apex of the poles
to a stake about 80 feet from the base

The Weather Was Not as "Glorious'' as
s 1t Might Have Been.
The weather man did not allow this
section OF the countryto become over
joyous last Thursday, the skies,
dropping their garnered fullness
down. at frequent intervals all day
long. While this did not interfere
with matters in the village, it cut d
material figure with the celebration
which Mr.. Holm had planned at Green
lake. The first to arrive at the lake
gotSthere in down-pour, and though
later the skies cleared somewhat the
weather was so threatening that many
who had planned to go to the lake
abandoned their. plans ) - -
/: The Viking made several trips in
the AFTERNOON and the visitors enjoyed
erssvlyesaq ute fuliysson the water.
After G. A. Dickey had delivered his
Grafton the pavilion was cleared and
from then until morning the dancers
made merry beneath it's roof. The
log rolling contest furnished consider
able amusement to those who had
never seen anything of the sort and
other attractions pulled off between
showers kept the crowd good natured.
Throughout the day the Princeton
cornet band furnished acceptable music
and did much to amuse the gathering.
For a new organization the boys are in
excellent condition and were frequently
complimented on their work. If the
members practice as persistently in
the future as they have in the past it
will not be many months before they
will be in as good shape as any band in
towns twice the size of Princeton.
The crowd in attendance was most
orderly one and, barring the miserable
weather, the celebration was success.

The county auditor having been no.
titled that the State no longer had
money in it's wolf bounty fund the
board voted to discontinue the payment
OF bounties for the killing of wolves.
It also voted to cancel all the personal
property taxes reported uncollected.
Several applications for abatement
of taxes and refunqments were pre-
sented, but were laid over until next
week, when the board will meet again,
first as a board of equalization and
later to transact county business. The
session will commence Monday and
two days will probably DE devoted to
equalizing assessments.

Minnesota Crop Conditions for the Week
Ending July 8.
The weather was warm in southern
portions on the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th,
with the thermometer reading from
900 to 81 . in the southern half of the
State on the 3rd. The latter part of
the week was cool. There were fire.
quent showers except on the lst and
5th; these were lightest in the south:
west, and heavy in the northern half
of the State. Newfolden. Marshall
county, reports 1922 inches of rainfall
measured in a government gauge,)
from the End to the 5th, inclusive. In
the Rec River valley all the low lands
along the water courses are oFerapwed,
and large areas Of grain ar sanding
in water. On the hi 81, aud better
drained lands the small grain crops
are fine, but there is diversity of opin-
ion as to the amount of injury to the
crops that have been standing in water.
Flax is very uneven, and much of the
late crop has been injured by grass
hoppers. In central and southern por-
tions the small grains are very fine,
though there are reports of lodging
and slight rust in very small areas.
Rye harvest is we'll advanced, and in
the southeast barley and winter wheat
are being cut. Oats are generally
fair crop. Corn grew very rapidly
during the hot and moist weather, but
many fields are grassy because the soil
was too wet to be cultivated. The wild
grass crop is large, but it cannot be
secured till the water in the meadows
is lower. Considerable clover has been
cut during the week, but some of it is
spoiled by showers. The potato crop
is good one. Chinch bugs are injur-
ing wheat and corn in southern coun-
ties. -

THE NEW CORPS.
The Board of Education Has Secured All
But One of the Teachers.

The Board of Education Has Secured All
But One of the Teachers.
The people of Princeton take great
pride in their public schools and will
be pleased to learn that Prof: H. E.
White has been retained as superin-
tendent, as were also his assistants,
Misses Harmon and Moody. Under
these teachers our high school has
made rapid progress and their good
work is fully appreciated.
Miss Ida King, another successful
teacher, has been retained and will
have charge of the eighth grade.
In the seventh grade new teacher
has been secured, Miss Florence
Ketcham, of Warren. Miss Ketcham
is a graduate of the Warren high
school and has attended the State Uni
versity, although not graduate of the
latter institution. She has taught sew
eral successful terms and undoubtedly
will prove satisfactory addition to
our force.
The teacher for the fifth and sixth
grades has not yet been selected, but
in the fourth grade Miss Maud Muir
dock, who has given universal salts
faction, has been retained.
| Another new face will be seen in the
third grade, where Miss Matte Galley,
of Minneapolis, has been engaged to
teach. Miss Galley is a graduate of the
Minneapolis high school and since her
graduation has been engaged in teach
ing and has an excellent record.
For the first and second grades Miss
Zilla Davis, of Anoka, has been Sc
cured. Miss Davis is graduate of the
Anoka high school and for several
years has held position in the Milaca
school where she has given excellent
satisfaction. c.. < @ 70. z. Is 1.-s.
/ Miss Alice Jones, a graduate of our
own high school, has been given the
kindergarten department., and will I'M
doubtedly prove popular teacher.
Miss Florence Davis, who has had
charge of the schools at the brickyard,
is another of the old teachers to be re-
tanned.
The reader has probably noticed that
the name of one of our Oldest and most
popular teachers has been omitted from
the above list. The announcement
that Miss Huse, who for twenty years
has been starting the little folks on the
path in the pursuit of knowledge, will
no longer be connected with our schools
will be received with genuine regret
by all. She has labored faithfully,
diligently and successfully on the corps
so long that she has endeared herself
to parents and pupils alike. She was
unanimously reelected but resigned
Her plans for the future have not been
made public, but it is rumored that she
will 90 south and conduct private
school. Wherever fate may take her,
she will be: accompanied by the best
wishes of the entire population of this
village.

The new ruler of Great Britain, the King
OF England and Emperor of India, is not
without experience in public affairs. For
years he has attended to many of the
duties which fall upon the sovereign.
Long ago he installed himself as the
helper of his mother, the Queen, so that
now he is fully prepared to take up the
work where she dropped it.
He has wide acquaintance with pub
lie affairs, and is looked upon as one of
the best politicians OF his empire. While
always maintaining the character of an
aggressive man in politics he managed to
hold himself aloof from every party and
faction. Therefore he becomes King free
from any political alliances or attach
ments that might embarrass him in the
discharge Of his duties.
His accession to the throne will not, it
is believed. be signalized by any changes
in the policy of the government in re-
spect to the South African war or any
other matter. While it is known that he
has opinions on all of the really import
ant questions which engage the attention
Of the government, there is no probability
that he will insist upon the adoption of
his views to such an extent as to inter-
rupt friendly relations between himself
and the ministry. He Is a very tactful
man, and there are therefore reasons for
thinking that he will get along with his
ministers fully as tremendously as the
Queen did
The opinion that his whole life has been
devoted to the pursuit of pleasure is a
mistaken one. For years his time has
been fully occupied with the duties con-
nected with his station. 1t is true that
he has not been called upon to bear any
great responsibilities, but it is within the
truth to say that he is well prepared for
the high place to which he has been
called. While not a great man, he will
be a safe ruler.
He is popular with Americans, and there
are hundreds of them who have a per-
sonal acquaintance with him. He has
never hesitated to extend helping hand
to any of them who were ambitious to at
tain social distinction in England, that
is, any entitled to have their claim to
social distinction recognized. 1t is forty
years since he was visitor to this coun-
try He travelled as Baron Renfrew, and
was in charge of the Duke of Newcastle,
father of the Duke of Newcastle now in
Florida. He was only a lad then, but
he made an impression that has not yet
entirely disappeared. The attachment
he then formed for Americans has always
remained strong.
1t is the understanding that he is a
strong, healthy man. That being the case,
it is not unreasonable to predict that he
will reign at least fifteen years. He be-
longs 10 a long-lived family. George /
lived 10 be Ga; George II, n; George III,
50; George ~, IS; William ". 70. and
Victoria, 80. 1t would not be at all re-
markable, therefore, if he should live to
be IS. Having been popular as heir to
the throne for so many years, there is
no reason why he should not be a popu-
lar King.
