TWAS ONLYADREAM
Or, The Mans Sudden and Cow
ardly Awakening.

A resident OF L'Anse had dream
the other night, and were it not for
the fact that he was already q mar
ried man. his anticipation of forth
coming marriage would have been
duly celebrated. He dreamed that
he had returned home with the cher
ished promise that was to make him
a most happy man for the rest of his
life. Every preparation had been
made for the eventful day-the cot
tage secured, household utensils
purchased, and everything was in
readiness for the joyous occasion.
He silently awaited the coming of
the morn that was to be his last
farewell to single blessedness.
Hark The sound OF revelry is
heard in the street below; much
noise and confusion prevail. What
could it mean? Was he to be the
object Of nocturnal visit from the
youth of the town to help celebrate
the happiness that possessed him?
All kinds Of music greeted his ear;
horns, bells, and the hundred and
one things that the small boy can
locate when he wishes to disturb
mankind, and also make nuisance
OF himself, were seemingly brought
forth to mock his sweet dream. At
an hour when most people are sup
posed to be in the arms of old Nor
pheus, or ought to be, the subject OF
this sketch awoke, only to realize
that it was not wholly a dream,
neither was it periodical attack of
nightmare. For lol Beneath his
bedroom window had assembled a
large herd of fractions animals,
commonly called cows, with huge and
loud. sounding bells attached to their
necks, and everybody in L'Anse is
somewhat acquainted with the noise
an otherwise docile COW can make
when the flies begin to tickle.

Owing to the late hour OF the train
from the copper country, court did
not open until 1:30 p. m. There
were three criminal cases on the
docket. The first for trial was that
of the People VS.. Edward Davis, OF
Baraga, charged with assault with
intent to rape. The case consumed
most of the afternoon and several
hours the following morning. both
prosecutor and ]. F. Hambitzer put
ting up hard fight. After a brief
deliberation, however, the jury rem
dered verdict of not guilty.
In the case OF the People VS.. Paul
Bebeau, who was charged with the
crime of sodomy, the defendant at
first entered a plea OF not guilty,
but before trial of the case he
changed his plea to that of guilty.
Bebeau is rather simple-minded
fellow. which fact was taken into
consideration by Judge Streeter,
who sentenced him Friday to Mar
ouette Branch Prison for term
not less than six months, or more
than two years.
The case of the People VS.. Samuel
Fl. McGregor resulted in Q verdict
of not guilty. McGregor was
charged with the larceny OF q crate
of butter from a freight car, where
it had been placed after being re-
moved from the depot at Nestoria

burned.

Covering the Silo.

Various ways have been tried of
covering the silage after the silo was
filed to prevent the spelling of the
silage on top, but it has been found
that nothing is better or less expensive
than to put on water enough to thor
oughly wet the top Of the silage and
have enough so that it runs down be.
tween the silage and the sides of the
silo. Many avoid all loss from damage
on top by beginning to feed immed-
ately after filling, thus giving it no
time to damage. The feeding should
always be dono from the top, taking
about two inches from the entire top
each day. If the feeding Is done too
slowly, and part Of the surface is left
exposed to the air for two or three or
more days, then the stock will have
partially damaged silage all the time

The fact that all attempts to photo
graph the interior or the background
Of the eye had remained frultless so
far was due to the peculiar construc-
tion of the eye. 1t is difficult to light
up the interior to such an extent as
to enable one to take a photograph

was broken. He then looked at his
wifes watch, and hers had stopped
ten minutes later, at 1883, and investi-
cation showed that the mainspring was
broken Amazed at this sequence of
accidents he asked the houseglrl to
look at her watch and was told that
the handspring Of hers had broken the
day before the spring Of the first men

unusual size fell-some stones as large

Graaa In the Orchard.

Hortculturists and fruit growers
have long known that grasses are inju-
rious to young apple trees, but 1t seems
that they were wrong in attributing
the injury to interference with the air,
the water and the food supply of the
trees. Carefully conducted expert
ments and observation at the Wodburn
experimental fruit farm in England
have shown, however, that there is
some direct or indirect product Of
grass growth that has an active poison
GUS effect on the roots Of the trees. 1t
Is also suggested that the so called ex-
haustion of the soil by certain plants,
preventing the subsequent growth Of
other plants in the same ground, may
be due really to some poisonous prod.
uct left by the first plants.
