HELD FOR KILLING PUPIL.
Claims That Teacher Struck Boy Over
Head With Ruler.


Graettinger, May 12.-Great eX.
element prevails in town over the de.
velopments in the sudden and mys.
FERROUS death of a 9-year-old son of
Barney Elsenblast. The facts of the
case are about as follows: Young
Elsenblast was attending the country
school about two miles west Of town
last week. The boy, it seems, was
somewhat unruly, and the teacher, c.
N. Jensen, tried to punish him, but
not in the usual way. He asked the
boy to go to work and study his les
son, but this was not done in a hur-
ry. The teacher picked up a rule
and struck him over the head sor-
eral times. The boy came to time,
but did not feel just right afterwards.
In the evening he was taken sick
and never regained consciousness and
Sunday morning he passed away. The
teacher, Mr.. Jensen, was not accused
until after the death Of the boy. Mon
day morning an inquest was held and
the jury decided that the boy died
from the effects of the blows. Sheriff
Coakley arrived yesterday and took
Mr.. Jensen in charge. The teacher:
of course, had no intention of lnjur.
ing the boy, and the outcome Of the
case is awaited with much interest.

An interrupted Love Affair.

An incident OF Cupid's conniyauee.
occurred 90 the streets here Tuesday
evening which might have ended in
rather sensational circumstances had
1t not been for the interference of an
other directly interested party. The
principals to the affair were q C. &N.
w. Ry. breakman by the name of l..
Whitman and a sixteen-year-old girl of
this place. The other party who took
a hand in the little game much to the
-amazement and discomforture of the
other parties, was Willman's wife.
1t appears that in the nomadic wan
behring's of an extra freight brakeman
Whitman had cultivated the girls &C.
quaintance and for some time has car
ried on a clandesSine correspondence
with her masqurading as Il single man.
His visit here Tuesday was the out
come of the correspondence, and it is
said that qniet little elopement was
to take place the next day. Mrs. Will
man was informed of this interesting
and eliminating feature of the love
affair through the discovery of a letter
in her husbands pocket. which i'm the
usual parlance of love smitten SWANS,
to her discovered the falseness of the
man she called husband
Whitman arrived in town Tuesday
coming here from Ashland where he
resides. Mrs. Whitman came on the
same train unbeknown to her husband.
She saw the meeting that took place be-
tween the truant husband and the mis-
led girl, and later in the evening. she
| met the two. When she raised her
| veil and disclosed her identity the in
furiated and battied husband gave vent
to his feelings in language that would
not look we'll in print and deliberately
struck the woman he had vowed to love
and protect. After committing this
| dastardly act he concluded that the at
mospheric conditions hereabout were
not of a nature conclusive to his indi-
vidual good health, aud took French
leave. The young lady returned home
a very much mortified but wiser girl.
A warrant was sworn out for Will
mans arrest, but in the meantime be
cad got out of town on "a log train.
This unfortunate affair should be a
warning lesson to all young girls who
are in the habit OF carrying on innocent
liirtations with strangers. While there
may not be any harm intended the affair
of Tuesday is a glazing example of the
uncertaity in which Cupid handles his
little darts. 1t is safer girls to throw
your good graces in the way of boys oil
your acquaintance. There are plenty
of them here in town.

legal tender. Nothing is said about the
assets currency which is part Of the
scheme of the financiers. Nothing is said
about the Aldrich bill which proposes to
substitute the banks into opposition to tax
reduction by loanng them the sum from
the treasury. There is no condemnation
of the corruption that such a system
would lead to. The platform does not
antagonize the proposition now before
Congress to limit the amount Of paper
money. In other words, there is not a
line in the platform that is written in
behalf Of the people; not n line that will
excite criticism III Wall street.
"The platform ignores the income tax;
it fails to indorse the election of Senators
by direct vote, and also omts the plank
Of the Kansas City platform denouncing
corporate domination in politics.
'"The submission of such a platform
to the voters Of a State is an insult to
their intelligence, for it is intended to
deceive them.
Il had expected that platform pre-
pared by Mr.. Hill for Judge Parker

disgrace the Democrats of the nation to
adopt such a platform and it ought to

JAPANESE PROVERBS.

There is no miracle in true doctrine.
Human life is like the dew of the

The fallen blossom never returns to

There is no shore to the bitter sea of
Birth and Death.
Never let go the reins Of the wild
colt of the heart.
One confession effaces the sins Of
even three years.
Only by reason of having died does

Iips For the Bows.

When you see boys on the streets
and public places, we often wonder II
they know business men are watching
them. In every bank and in every
office there will be place for a boy
to fill. Those who have the manag-
menu of affairs of business will select
one of those boys. They will not select
him for his ability to swear, smoke Gig.
erettes or tap beer keg. The society
swell who is daft about little social fun
ctions and is happy in the concelt that
he is quite the article with the ladies',
and is quite ind ispensible on all occas-
ions, is given the "glassy stare" quite
as often as the beer guzzler or ciger-
cite smoker. Business men have few
loose habits themselves, but they are
looking for boys as near gentle
men in every sense of the word as they
can find and they give the character
on every one in the city. They are not
looking for rowdies. When boy APP
plies for one of these places and is re-
fused, they may not tell him the reason
tn CIV d not want him, but the boy can
depend on that he has been rated accor-
ding to his behavior. Boys can not al
ford to adopt the habit and converse
ton of loafers and rowdies If they ever
want to be called to responsible posi-
tions.-Rice Lake Leader.
