dissecting table at the medical depart
ment Of the university, the body of his
brother who was killed on the Great
Northern road near Dassel, N. D., some
time ago
Standley was away from home at the
time the accident happended and knew
that his brother was expected to arrive

When his brother failed to put in an
appearance he became crafty alarmed
and started an investigation with the
result that he traced the body which
proved to be his brothers, to the medi-
cal department of the university
Standley does not believe that his
brother was stealing a ride as he says
he had money with which to pay his
way, and money was found in pockets
Of the dead mans clothes. Standley
took the body back to Holt last night.

Feud time In Kentucky.


When the dew is on the mountain
and the corn is in the still.
When the feudist stalks the feudist
through the valley. DER the hill,
When the red is on the forest and the
amber's in the wine,
When the autumn Zephyrs whisper
through the forests leaf and vine
Through the mountains of Kentucky
there's a man behind each rock,
With his finger on the trigger and his
cheek against the stock
When the bead is on the mOOnshine
and the summer wanes to fall
Then the feudist takes his rifle from
it's nail upon the wall,
Seeks him out a trusty shelter in the
thicket by the road.
Puts a funnel in the muzzle and pours
home heavy load.
Oh, the undertaker's busy when the
man behind the rock
Gets his finger on the trigger and his
face against the stock.
When the crack is in the rifle and the
smoke is in the blue,
There is always something hasty for
the coroner to do:
All the bards obituary find keen de-
mand for verse,
And there's grease upon the axle Of
the melancholy hearse:
For death invades the temple. never
stopping once to knock,
When the fingers on the trigger and
the cheeks against the stock.
So prithee, traveller, listen; When the
brown is on the hill.
When the dew is on the mountain and
the corn is in the still,
The game laws up on tourists and the
undertaker's van
Is always on the hurry bringing in
the punctured man;
For it's Feud- time in Kentucky, ev-
cry rifle is at cock,
And the fingers on the trigger and the
cheeks against the stock.
Chicago is a hundred years old and
about two hundred years dirty.
