Where Is Ed Hubbards

Clear Lake Courier; There is a
Sc nsation loose at our sister town
of Palmer that is shaking the social
circles of that place to the utmost
depths. Ed Hubbard, until last Sat-
urday, the agent for the Winnor-
Torgensen lumber company, disap-
peared, andon his disappearance the
sens alton was brought to light. A
young lady who resides near Palmer
accuses Mr.. Hubbard with the re-
sponsibility of her downfall. A cer-
tain lawyer of a foreign state, who is
also relative, came to Deuel. county
last week to straighten matters out.
The attorney told Hubbard that he
must marry the girl at once. Hub
bard informed the attorney that he
was engaged to marry another girl,
but that he would call on his fancee
Sunday and square matters with her,
and then do the right thing by the
injured girl. On Saturday night
Hubbard deserted his usual haunts
and since that time has not been seen
in Palmer, though it is known for q
dead certainty that he was in St. Paul
Sunday.
This is the second time Hubbard
has been caught in this kind of a
scrape, and his first victim died, at
Milbank in giving birth to her child.
He was arrested at the time, some
years ago, and gave bonds to care
for the child, and he did care for the
infant until its death. Since his first
affair Mr.. Hubbard has seemingly
conducted himself in q gentlemanly
manner so far as outward appearances
are concerned, and he is considered
an honest capable fellow, he has not
wanted for good and lucrative posi-
tions, and when the last escapade be-
came known it fell like thunder clap
on the community.

A belated wayfarer was passing an
English public house late at night
when a foreigner was elected there
from who bore all the signs of ex-
tremely rough usage, but nevertheless
was laughing immoderately.
"What Is the joke? the gentleman
asked.
"Why," said the other. "a man came
up to me in the bar just now. gave me
a fearful punch on the nose and said.
Take that, you blooming Norwegian :"
and he fell to laughing again.
But" the gentleman said. there's
nothing very funny in that"
"NO," the man answered, but then
he hit me crack In the eyes and after
ward knocked out my teeth, saying.

An Expanding Business.

The building recently occupied
by R. w. Bailey as drug store,
has been purchased by Erland-
son & Johnson and will be used
by them for the display of their
clothing and shoe departments
With the great stock of goods
which the firm carries they have
for years found themselves over
crowded, and the securing of
this adjoining store will provide
for them room for a much needed
expansion, where the large stock
which they carry may be better
displayed and more conveniently
handled.

The Coloring Qualities of Peppe

The COlOrtng Qualities OF Pepper.
Canaries when fed with cayenne pep
per gradually change their color. pass
ing from yellow to red. Cayenne pep
per contains tinctorial substance. an
irritative principle and an oil. When
the last two substances are extracted
by sleeping in alcohol. pepper loses its
coloring properties, but IN addition Of
olive oil restores them. From this fact
the conclusion Is drawn that the oily
principle Of pepper is the necessary
vehicle of color. Experiments made
with white hens gave similar results.
These hens have also the quality Of be-
ing able to indicate changes Of tenn
perature by marked change of plum
age. The yolk of their egg Is bright
red.

hNd siam nun,
Still more shaken was he next
morning, They had sat down to
breakfast when Lucy, with a cry OF
surprise. pointed upward.
In the center OF the ceiling was
scrawled, with a burnt stick, appar-
emily, the number 2S. To his daugh.
ter Il was unintelliglble, and no did
enlighten her.
That night he sat up with his gun
and kept watch and ward, Ho. saw
and heard nothing. and yet In the
morning great "a had been painted
upon the outside of his door.
Thus day followed day and as
sure rs morning came he found that
his unseen enemies had kept their
register and had marked up In some
conspicuous position how many days
were stlll left TO him out OF the
month of grace, Sometimes the Ia
tal number appeared upon the walls,
sometimes upon the floors: oecaslon'
ally they were on small placards
stuck upon the garden gate or the
raillngs.
With all his vigilance John FerrieV
could not discover whence these daily
warnings proceeded.
A horror, which was almost super
stitlous, came upon him at sight OF
them. He became haggard and rest
less, and his eyes had the troubled
look OF some hunted creature.
He had but one hope In life now,
and that was for the arrival Of the
young hunter from Nevada.
Twenty had changed 20 fifteen, and
fifteen TO ten, but there was no news
OF the absentee, One by one the
number dwindlod down, and still
there came no sign OF him.
Whenever a horseman elattered
down the road or a driver shouted at
his team. the old farmer hurried to
the gate, thinking that help had ar.
rived at last.
At last, when he saw Ave give way
to four and that again to three, he
lost heart, and abandoned all hope OF
escape. Slngle-handed. and with his
limited knowledge of the mountains
which surrounded the settlement, he
knew that he was powerless.
The more frequented roads were
strictly watched and guarded, and
none could pass along them without
an order from tho council. Turn
which way he would. there appeared
to be no avoiding the blow which
hung over him,
Yet the old man never wavered In
his resolution to part with life itself
before he consented to what he re-
garded as his daughters dlshonor.
He was sitting alone one evening
pondering deeply over his troubles.
and searching vainly for some way
out OF them.
That morning had shown tho fig.
ure two upon the wall OF his house,
and the next day would be the last
OF the allotted time. What was to
happen then?
All manner OF vague and terrible
fancles filed his imagination.
And his daughter-what was 10
become OF her after he was gone?
Was there no escape from the invls-
ible network which was drawn all
around them?
He sunk his head upon the table
and sobbed at the thought of his own
impotence.
What was that? In the silence he
heard a gentle scratchingg sound
low. but very distinct. in the quiet OF
the night. 1t came from the door Of
the house.
