Alas! Poor Mary.
Mary made an angel cake,
And placed it on the table;
Her husband of 1t did partake,
As long, as he was able.

All this occurred a week ago,
And the doctor did allow
That Mary's cakelet wasn't slow
For she's a widow now.

AS A YOUTH.
Washington Did Many Things When
q Boy That Were Worthy Of
q Grown Man.

The early age at which Washington
developed the tender passion has been
noticed. In fact, it was despair at the
uncompromising attitude of certain
''Lowland Beauty" that he fled to the
domain of Lord Fairfax, afterwards
his patron. The noble gentleman had
left England and buried himself in
the wilderness on account of disap-
pointed passion; perhaps George, who
was then coming Is, felt there might
be bond between two such wounded
hearts," at any rate, before he had
been many months under Fairfax's
eye, just as he was completing his six
teenth year, he set out on surveying
expedition. The Englishman's ground
included thousands of acres of the
most fertile country in the world, ex-
tending in wide strip from the sea
to the Alleghanies. 1t was no small
sign of confidence to allow youth to
lay out such a country.
This position is merely sample of
the many important places he held.
AT 10 he was major of the Virginia
militia; at 81 he commanded an impor-
tant expedition to Du Quesne. Small
wonder is it that his first love came so
young.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

WASHINGTON'S BIRTHPLACE.
Dut a Small Monument Marks the
Spot at Wakefield Farm on
the Potomac.

Mount Vernon hss become great
mecca for the American tourist; at
Yorktown and Valley Forge stand
stately reminders of the First Gen.
tleman of America, while in every
part of the land the smallest memen-
toes of his life and actions are reli-
giously preseryed; but in magnificent
decay on the lower Potomac lies
Wakefield Farm, which was associ-
ated with his early life. A simple
granite shaft marks the spot where
George Washington was born, and a
few bricks and stones are all that
remain of his early home.
The old country mansion was
burned early in the last century, but
the brick chimney, within whose arch
four people could sit; and the corner
stones, with portion of the founda-
ton, were saved. Shortly before the
civil war the historic farm passed
into the hands of a family which at
first showed some appreciation for
it's associations. A succeeding gen.
Grafton, however, tore down the
anu UnO VI OliC
walls in order to secure the bricks.
A marble slab bearing an inscription
giving the date of Washington's birth
and other information, which had
been set into the great arch, was
removed to the old family grave
yard; but in placing it beneath two
ancient fig trees planted by the moth
er of Washington, it was broken, and
it's fragments lie there to-day, moss
grown and vine-covered.
1t was in 1895 that the national
government erected at Wakefield a
miniature copy of the Washington
monument, with the inscription
"Washington's Birthplace" and in
small letters at the base the words:
directed by the United States, A.
d. 1895" -Waldon Fawcett, in Wom-
mans Home Companion.

SAID OF WASHINGTON.

Just honor to Washington can only
be rendered by observing his pre-
cepts and initiating his example,
Robert C. Winthrop.
However his military fame may
excite the wonder of mankind, it is
chiefly by his civil magistracy that
Washingtons example will instruct
them.-Fisher Ames.
A great and venerated character
like that of Washington is
not an isolated fact in history to be
regarded with barren admiration-it
is a dispensation of Providence for
good.-E. Everett.
He illustrated and adorned the civ
ilization of Christianity and furnished
lection of it's teachings which the
subtlest arguments of its enemies
cannot Disqualification B. Vance.
George Washington, the brave, the
wise, the good. Supreme in war, in
council and in peace. Washington,
valiant, without ambition; discreet,
without fear; confident, without pre-
sumption.-Dr. Andrew Lee. =
To add brightness to the sun or
glory to the name of Washington is
alike impossible. Let none attempt
it. In solemn awe pronounce the
name, and in it's naked, deathless
splendor leave it shining on.-Abra-
ham Lincoln.
Let him who looks for a monument
to Washington look around the
United States. Your freedom, your
independence. your national power,
your prosperity and your prodigious
growth are a monument to him.
Kossuth.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1903-02-13
SAID BY WASHINGTON.

Be courteous to all, but intimate
with few, and let those few be well
tried before you give them your con-
fdence.
The company on which you i'm
prove most will be least expensive
to you.
1t is easy to make acquaintance,
but difficult to shake off, however
irksome and Improbable they are
ted ourselves to them.
1t is a maxim with me not to ask
what, under similar circumstances, l
would not grant.
l expressly forbid the sale or trans
portation out of the said common
wealth, of any slave I may die pos
sessed of, under any pretense what
soever.
In my estimation, more permanent
and genuine happiness is to be found
in the sequestered walks of con-
nubial life than in the giddy rounds
of promiscuous pleasure or the more
tumultuous and imposing scenes of
successful ambition.
Without virtue and without in
tegrity, the finest talents and the
most brilliant accomplishments can
never gain the respect and conciliate
the esteem of the truly valuable part
of mankind.
1 shall never attempt to palliate
my own foibles by exposing the err
ror of another.
Nothing would give me more real
satisfaction than to know the senti-
ments which are entertained of men
by the public, whether they be favor
able or otherwise.

"And now tell me-" said the teacher,
"what George Washington did that

Want Our Corn.

Professor Haynes at the experiment
station has received more requests for
seed corn already this year than have
been received before at the institution
in all the years of its existence. The
cause is the cold and wet summer that
inst past, which was exceedingly un-
favorable to the corn crop.
In. Minnesota, Montana, the Dakotas,
Iowa, Nebraska and Illinois this I'M
favorable weather prevailed, and the
farmers in all these states had to feed
what little corn they had to their stock.
They have had to make requistion on
their local experiment stations for corn
from TIME to time, and even these sta
tions are now calling on Minnesota to
come to the rescue.

February Twenty-second.

AS when a traveller down the widening vale
Looks back, and notes some noble noun
tain pile
That seems to tower nearer, grander still,
AS on he hastens DER each fleeing mile |;
So, looking backward Ger her rugged
years,
America, her freedom bravely won
With broadening vision pauses to admire
The looming greatness of her Washing
ton.

Mrs. Leah Spafford, living about one

Mrs. Spafford was rs years of age,

MINNESOTA NEWS.
Cole Younger Pardoned.

Thomas Coleman Younger is free to
return to Missouri.
A conditional pardon was granted
to him today and he may return to his
relatives and old home in Missouri.
Twenty-seven years of absence have
worked great change. Of the three
brothers who led the raid on the
Mortified bank in 1876, two are in
their graves. The third, known as
'Cole" Younger, was then the terror
of five states. Now he is sobered by
twenty-five years confinement and is
an old man broken in health.
The pardon was granted by the
state board on two conditions. One
is that he never return to Minnesota;
the second, that he Selemnly promises
never to allow himself to be exhibited
to the public gaze in any place of
amusement, though he may attend as
a spectator.
