People around here are starting to
pull in from the fields almost everybody
is through work.
David Harden has just returned from
Manitoba where he has been visiting
for some time with friends.
We notice that the cattle that have
been going at large on the prairie are
now taken into the pasture and kept of
the field.
AS the fields and the prairies are
beginning to get thickly covered with
green grass and grain it makes US think
that we have at last come into the
midst of summer almost before we
know it.
Mat Thompson and Jas. Ellefson hit
the road for the west two weeks ago
Monday. Their intentions are to take
in part of the summer out there near
the coast and see how they like the
climate and look over the land.
Misses Annie Hill and Elite Sand
we'll were out here two weeks ago from
Rosehill, where they are engaged teach
ing school this summer. They spent
Sunday with old friends and had an en-
joyable boat ride on the Moscow lake.
Peter Sundberg had quite an expert
ence the other day when he was cross
ing the Moscow lake with his new disc
drill. He was going to cross in the
deep water and when he got about half
way across he got stuck and had a
hard time getting across. Perhaps he
thought that the good road around is
the shortest way across.

Seattle, Feb. 6.-Kaalle Kuhakainen
is insane from lohesomeness or nos
talgia. He cannot speak a word OF
English and no man has been found in
Seattle who can talk the melancholy
strangers dialect. When questioned,
he looks at his interrogation with
mournful and wondering eyes, but does
not answer, even with shake of the
head. His face is intelligent, and he
is scrupulous in his personal habits, but
the doctors say his mind is affected
and he has been committed to the
asylum.
1t is believed that the unfortunate
victim of isolation in this large city

have attempted to converse with him

has remained there ever since. Be-
cause he suffers from no physical all
ment, yet seems unable to make an
effort to do anything for himself, he
was taken into the superior court yes

Kuhakainen's name was learned from
papers in his pocket. No other traces
as to his identity can be obtained. II
he has compatriots in America or rela-
tives in his native land, he seems un-
able to communicate with them, either
from lack of education or failure Of

at the causes of his condition, but
agree in the belief that his mind has
given way through his inability TO talk
to associates, resulting in melancholia
