Short Change Man Bested.

A smooth swindler of tho short
change stripe made his appearance in
town last Thursday but 30 far as we
have been able to find out was unable
to work his little game on the mer-
chants. He appeared at Fangman' s
hardware store and wanted to purchase
small paddock offering twenty We
dollar bill in payment. Mr.. Fangman
made the proper change the sharper
offering to help in counting over the
cash but his services were promptly
refused. He had no more than put the
money in his pocket than he exclaim-
ed that he had no desire to break a
bill of such large denomination and
wanted to trade back but MIR. Fang
man knew his trick and declined
whereupon the swindler made hasty
departure, appearing next at Leuthold
& Hinkley's where he purchased a
collar offering another $50 in payment
but the clerk waiting on him refused
to make the change and Mr.. Skinner
made quick rush for the train and is
probably looking for greener fields.

Grafters Heading for Winnesheik.

There is a bunch Of grafters work
ing in Buchanan. county, in the neigh
borhood of Independence, and it comes
to us on good auhotrity that they con-
template working this county in the
near future. 1t will behoove our people
to heed this warning, and if they ara
as represented to us, steer clear of
them. 1t is said that they claim to
sell suits of clothes, go around with
the samples and take orders, getting
the farmers and others to sign orders
for them which our informant tells us
might possibly turn up as notes at one
of the banks soon afterward. We do
not wish to misrepresent anyone if
they are doing Legitimate business,
but our people will make no mistake
If they tuIn away all peddlers, solicit
tors, etc. The best way to do always
is to buy your goods, everything you
buy, from the local merchants. You
are SIRE of honest treatment from
them, and we will guarantee that they
can sell as cheap as sanyone. when the
quality and style of goods is con-
sidered. At any rate, IL anyone calls
on you who looks suspicious, refuse
to buy of him. He may be all right,
but so will you if you refuse. If you
buy you may get bit, and you may not.

In Lapland the crime which, after
murder, is punished with the greatest
severity Is that of marrying a girl
against the wishes of her parents.
When sutton makes his appearance
he says nothing to the maiden, who
often does not know who he is, but her
parents inform her that she is sought
in marriage. Shortly afterward, on
day appointed, the girl, her parents,
friends and sutton all meet together at
a feast, and the young man and maiden
are placed opposite, so that they can
look at each other freely and can talk
with comfort. After the meal is over
the company repair to an open space,
where ''the race for wife, is run. The
usual distance is about a quarter of a
mile, and the girl is placed a third Of
the distance from the starting point.
If she be fleet of foot she can easily
reach the goal before her sutton, and
in that case he may never trouble her
again. If, however, he has found IA
vor in her eyes. all she has to do is to
lag somewhat in her fight, so that he
may overtake her. If she desires to
intimate to him that his love for her
Is returned she may run a little way
and then turn with open arms to &C
cept him.

time hen clucks aud has laid an egg,
his paper is paid for that week. 1t

Wolves in Butler County.

The gun sports of Butler county have
been having great times the past week
hunting wolves in the vicinity OF
Swanton, where the animals are found
in large numbers. In fact, the wolves
have become so numerous in the heavy
timber along the West Fork of the
Cedar this spring that they travel in
droves of eight and ten, and depre-
dations on the, farmers sheep pens in
that vicinity are almost nightly &C.
currence. The farmers have banded
together and organized hunting par
ties. and during the past week four
teen have been killed. Seven of these
were killed by Fred Sherman, the mer-
chant at Swanton and the remainder
were shot by farmers. Will Brown,
who resides inside the corporate limits
of the place, is heavy sheep raiser
and has offered a reward of five dol
lars to every person who kills wolf
in that vicinity. This reward and the
one the county offers would make wolf
hunting there very profitable bust
ness, aside from the sport connected
with the diversion.

Historic Albania.

Albania lies $50 miles on the AdriatiC
sea and is fifty to a hundred miles
wide. 1t was formed originally, says
William Jackson Armstrong In his HE
roes Of Defeat" from part of Ilyris, al
Of Epirus and part of Macedonia in the
eleventh century. From this territory
sprung Pyrrhus. who defeated the Ro
man invader; Philip and Alexander OF
Macedon, the conquerors; Perseus
whose fame as a soldier covered the
world sixty years after Christ, and
Skanderbeg, who for forty years de-
feated armies sent against him by the
Turk. Ancient Albania lay in Asia, just
east Of the Caucasus.
