WITH GUN AND SWORD.

A husband, evil in the sight of
his father in-law, returned from
Minneapolis last Saturday. The
wife, in sky blue gown, met him
at the depot and warned him of dan
ger from the father-in-law.
All Saturday afternoon the young
husband was lodging stores, boxes,
and the like, avoiding the irate
father-in-law, who resides in Rem
vile county, but who was in kRed-
wood Falls that day with a gun in
one hand and a sword in another.
The son-in-law is well-dressed,
neatly appearing, and apparently a
hard working fellow, and why he is
Objectionable to the sight of the
wife's father, is mystery.

Following the hail a heavy rain

During the storm lightning struck
the residence of Mrs. Athey in this
city, and the shingles and tin roof
were torn up. Ladies in the neigh
borhood, at the time the bolt des-
cended were more or Hess stunned.

a man would eat 1t even If be had
just feasted on the best In the land.
The process seemed simple enough,
but 1t was the trained eye Of the
chiet that said when the cats were
just right, aud never did he make a
mistake, nor would he permit the
most ravenous appetite in the
crowd to hurry the result.
Some forty pounds Of fish were
prepared, and none of them were
left.
While Mr.. Chambers was pre-
pairing the fish. other members OF
the party were c:oking the corn
and pototoes, and they were as
good as ever came out OF a fire,
especially the "murphys," which
were roasted In the Goals. the only
way to get the real article.
Coffee fit for the patrons OF the
Waldo1f-Astoria was there, and
with it was some elegant COWS
milk skinned off the top OF the
cans. Then beans, pickles. onions.
tomatoes, bread, butter, and a half
dozen other things finished one OF
the most complete, most palatable
menus ever paraded before hungry
men.
And how they went at ID Sans
ceremony, sans walters, every
fellow for themself, 1t was a sight
to see that two score of hungry
mortals, with appetites whetted by
the savory odors from fish and
coffee, surround that long table
and dive into those good things.
Every thing was just right.
From top to bottom ofthe bill OF
fare, not an article could have been
improved.
With the full rays of the moon
In front, with the sparkling waters
of the beautiful Ohio at their feet,
with the dark background of beat
tiful foliage behind, 1t was picture
never to be forgotten.
Soon, too soon, 1t was all over,
and every member of the party was
sorry when the orders came to
clean up and go abroad. They did
so reluctantly, voting this the best
fish fry ever held along the Ohio
river, and determined never to miss
another mess of Chambers fish If
possible.

THE CHAMBERS
FISHING CLUB

Any one who has never attended
fish fry has missed something
which would ever remain a source
of pleasant recollection. Some
things must be seen to be appre-
clated. A fish fry IS one OF them.
One may hear descriptions Of them
from eloquent lips, but can only
get an idea of the real thing by
being there when the roll was called.
The writer of this article had
never been to one. He had heard
the boys say that they were great,
that they would never miss another
one, but had no adequate concept
lon of what was being talked about
until last night.
He was permitted to BE- guest
at the frv given by Mr.. James
Chambers, of the Riverview Hotel.
He saw 1t all, and Is willing to tes.
tify that 'the half had never been
told" aud he recognizes the weak.
ness of cold type to tell the other
half.
The party to the number of some
forty fortunate ones, assembled at
the wharf about 8 o'clock. The
weather looked awful for a fish fry.
But those who had "seen the ele
phant," said 1--WE will 60 rain or
shlne," and go 1t was. The signal
was given. The boxes and barrels
and crates and buckets and cans OF
of good things were quickly trans
ported to the wharf boat, where
the Flag ship Orion of the fish
squadron, under the competent
command of Captain E. B. Talbot,
was waiting.
In few minutes the camp near
Wittens landing was reached, and
the fun commenced.
The FIRE had already been
lighted by Fisherman Kennedy
and his assistants, and that camp
was soon one of the busiest scenes
imaginable.
Every fellow had something to
do and went right at 1t.
A long table was already there,
and on 1t the edibles were placed
In inviting arrangement.
The center of attraction, however
was the cooking of the fish by Mr..
Chambers: Upon a low wood fire,
between two large logs, the choice
members of the fnny tribe were
prepared for the hungry crowd
We have seen fish cooked before
but never as Mr.. Chambers cooks
them. We have tasted th,
products of the best chefs
at lake and ocean. but nev
er had the pleasure of the samp
ling such delicious piece of fish a.
that of last night. The open air
the river breeze, the camp sur
roundings added zest to the appe'
tite, but that was not necessary, 70,

Probably few persons WIN dispute
the proposition that IN common par
lance If a married man speaks Of bis
wife he intends 10 refer 10 hcr who
IN his wife at that time, and does not
contemplate her death and a second
wife. whom he may subsequently
marry. But suppose a married man
effects a policy ~ insurance on his
own life under the Married Womens
Property Act, 1892, for the benefit
of his wife and children" and after
his then wife's death the assured mai.
rlas again and has a second family.
VIII the second wife and her children
be entitled upon the death Of the hus-
band to share In the policy moneys?
This was the question before Mr.. JUS
tice Kekewich IN a case at the end Of
last week. and he held that the sec
ond wife and her children are en-
titled to share. The decision appears
to be in accordance with good sense
as well as law. AS the learned Judge
observed in giving judgment the pre-
SUMPTION that when a married man
speaks of his wife he intends his wife
at the time loses weisht when an in
strument like q policy Of insurance,
which is intended to make provision
for n wife and children after the hus-
bands death. has to be construed. The
husband in all probability intends to
provide for those who survive him,
and for that reason stand in need Of
the provislon and this conclusion is
strengthened by the reflection that as
he cannot reasonably be supposed
TO have intended to benefit only the
children living at the date Of the policy
to the exclusion Of after-born children
of the then existing wife, there APP
pears to be no good rasoa why the
children by the second wife and the
second wife herself should not also
I share. There is no reason why the
trust in favor Of the wife and children
which the act Of 1882, mentioned above
creates, should not include objects as
yet unascertaineG. Upon these ground-
1t was held that by wife and child
/ rem" the husband intended his surviv
ing Wife df any and his surviving
T children, whether by his then liying
or any aftor-taken wife.-Lcndon Teie

COFFEE CAKE.

The following recipe is one of the
simplest ana best for coffee cake. Take
a pint of bread sponge, add one egg
we'll beaten, half a cup of graduated
sugar, two ounces of butter and half a
pint Of luke-warm water. Mix these
well together and add sufficient -four
to make a thin dough. Let it rise until
it has doubled its original bulk. Then
turn it out en- a Toured board and roll
out an inch in thickness. Butter q
baking tin large enough to hold the
rolled out dough and fit it into the tin.
Cover and let it rise until it doubles its
size, and when ready to place in the
oven brush the top with an egg beaten
up with a teaspoonful Of sugar,
Sprinkle this thickly with ganulated
sugar adding a few blanched and
coarsely chopped almonds. Bake in a
moderately hot oven. If preferred the
dough may be made into little twists
Or braids instead of the large cake.

TIE VALUE OF FOOD.

The value of the food is not in the
available material contained therein for
the production of meat or milk only,
but also in the amount and quality Of
the manure derived thereerom. 1t has
been estimated that one-thlrd Of the
food eaten goes into the manure. As
the manure, then, is simply the food
stored away for future use, it is I'M
portant that in order to derive the
greatest benefit from the food con-
sumed the manure should be carefully
managed to prevent loss. The manure
heap is The saving bank CT The farm.

rind and peach leaves, and cook slowly
until they are soft and well done, then
strain them through q bag, pressing
hard. To each pint OF this liquor allow
one pound Of loaf sugar and the juice
Of one lemon Boil FOR q half-hour or
until It becomes thick like syrup. Bot.

THE AGE or FOWLS.

Query: Kindly let me know how one
can tell the age of fowls.
Assuming tuat live fowls are meant
in this inquiry it may be said that no
infallible test is known. Sprightliness,
beauty OF legs and gloss Of plumage
are the three strong indicators OF
youth. Spurs, roughness Of legs, fad
ing Of the skin Of the legs are good in
dications Of coming age, more nearly
infallible than those Of youth. \
farmer who put this same question TO
me personally last week suggested his
belief that the claws increased in
length with age. My own observation
has not touched this point, so that
can neither affirm nor deny. Between
one and three years judgment as to the
age OF bird IS often mistaken. Sunk
en- eyes often accompany greater age,
and carcasses show deeply honey
combed skin, ana muscle hard and re-
slstant to the touch. Yet I have net
seen the person who could tell the age
OF birds accurately, and in every cues
t;onable case. For accuracy we band
all birds, using a different band foi
different years A glance then shows
the exact ace of E-bird.-New Yorl

THE ROAD TO SUCCESS.

Farm success depends on knowledge,
on industry, enterprise and thrift, on
saving and making the income exceed
the outgo, on good fnanciering and
management, on ready adjustment to
new conditions, on love of the business
and on a good wife, who takes an inter-
est in her husbands work. There is
no dividing line between the home and
the farm. The presiding genius Of the
farm and the household are the two
factors which make a complete whole;
ore pulls and the other pushes. To be
a successful farmer, one must be q
good citizen, and his life radiate The
aommunity.-C. H. Gleason, in The Gull
tivator.

40 sToP FEATHER EATING. :

When the fowls get to picking the
feathers Off each others necks, take
a piece of raw, fat salt pork "a piece
with a good rind so it viii not come
down in the dlrD ana driving a nail
through the rind nail it to some part OF
the building in easy reach of the hens
and let them work at it MI they please.
When this is gone if they still continue
to pick off the feathers I give them
another piece. There is something
lacking in their food when they pick
off and cat each others feathers and
the raw, fat salt pork supplies the &c
fcicncy and stops feather eating
