What the Farmers Escape.
When our subscribers generally
throughout the country daily read the
list Of wrong-doing among those who
live in cities and towns, they should
assuredly feel like congratulating them
selves that they are, to a large extent,
exemp from liability to such misfortune.
Not that q farmer does not sometimes
go wrong. He would not be human
were he lifted above the plane of other
mortals; .,but the temptation to step
aside from the narrow path of rectitude
is not presented to him in his quieter
life, as it is presented to those who are
compelled to struggle against the
keenest kind Of competition which is
usually experienced in the larger cities.

Says Mrs. Mink is Sane

Mrs Gus Mink. who recently
stopped Of in Glenwood snroute to
this city from several months 80
journ in Texas and Mexico, was false
ly imprisoned in the Jail at Glenwood
four days last week or from Thursday
until Sunday evening whom her friend.
Mrs. Art Hull of this city, combining
her efforts with Judge Rodgers and
Sheriff Irving secured Mrs. Mink's
release and she returned to this city
Sunday evening with Mrs. Hull where
she is now making her home for
short time. 1t Is un1erstood that the
whole trouble arose over q chastise
ment which she was about to inflict
upon her adopted daughter for DISC
bedience when the child ran out and
told one of the other roomers and that
party took 1t upon themselves to
swear out warrant for Mrs. Minks
arrest. alleging that she was insane.
The sheriff and police immedi ately
took her by force to the Jail " here she
was held until friends interfered and
obtained her release.
A representative Of this paper called
on Mrs. Mink yesterday and found
her not only sane bnt showing no
signs that she had ever suffered from
insanity.
The whole affair is greatly de-
nounced by her numerous friends here
who regret that such a charge should
even have been thought Of, much less
made against an innocent woman Tor
