THE X.Ray, of West Duluth. goes
after the scalp of the county attor-
ney in very direct insinuatiou of
possible "boodle" in an editorial on
"The Bargain With Dave Kelly in
the last issue. Among other state
ments contained is the following,
which will meet with hearty appro-
baton: 1--WE do not think it the duty
of the county attorney to bargain
with him as to how much he shall
pay in order to secure his liberty.
That ought to be left to jury and
the judge" But the justice of the
following closing sentence of the
article ie one for the county attor-
ney to view and deal with as he may
see fit: ".Nhere> the county attorney
n'akea the bargains in these cases
there is too much temptation thrown
in the way of weak-ninded man
to place part of the assessment in
his own pocket"

IN a mention of the new townsite
to be plated near the Stephens mine
the Duluth Herald states that the
new town dis not far from the main
county road running from Virginia

TAKE. An anonymous letter was re-
ceiyed recently by Mrs. Harriet Faulk-
ner, of Yalesyille, Conn, containing the
information that her husband of few
months was attentive to a young widow
living in Meriden. The letter told OF
secret meetings in the parlors of the
Charter Oak Hotel and of walks through
Hubbard Park. Mrs. Faulkner shadowed
her husband when he met the young widow
and overheard enough to convince her
that an elopement was being planned.
A black veil and bouquet of chrysai--
themums were mentioned. For two

her husband and in an interview said:

He had asked me to advise her to take
a trolley car and meet him there at
once. Size asked me for description
of him, which | was able to give. She
fastened away and | purchased some
flowers tlike the ones she carried. l

band standing by the ladies' entrance

train. We were unable to get seats to-
rether, but at Hartford he touched me
on the shoulder and we left the train.
