 As the skipper was member of the church in Belleport and had often ad- dressed the Sunday school scholars on the subject of cleanly life, it seems cruel to say he resembled a man just awaken ing from drunken stupor but glance at his blotched and turgid face, his bleared eyes and his whole appearance as he tumbled out of his bunk-he had turned in all etanding-certainly gave grounds for the assumption
 Steadying himself on his feet and ut- tertng groan as an introductory the skipper entered the cabin.
 Good mornin'. Cap'n," saluted the mate, cheerfully.
 The captain said nothing. He snatched q pitcher of water from the table and drank thirstily

 The mate shook his head as if there was no doubt of his commanders intis- position.

 T should like to taste it," said the mate.
 T jest took about half a giassful of that cider out of curiosity and you can't imagine how 1t affected me. George" Bad, was it?" remarked the mate, still eyeing his plate. Tt just ran through my veins like melted wildfire. My head began to swim and I came nigh falling plum down in the street. The old gentleman was real scared"

 You are a good fellow. George" said the skipper, and now, I'm going to drink a cup of tea and take a nap"
 That crab apple cider must taste like whiskey don't it?" asked Mir. Brown, 'I smelt whiskey when I helped you over the rail last night?"

 Two evenings later the Jersey Belle had nearly completed her cargo of pine lum- Der and Captain Wales, who was singing a hymn in the cabin, was disturbed by | a noise above.

Wilkins Wynn Case Goes Over to
 Next Term.
 Scale, March al.-(speciai. .)-The wilk- ins Wynn murder case. which was called at the Russell Circuit Court at Scale this morning was continued until the next term of court by Judge Evans. Attorneys moved to quash the special venire of forty jurors. summoned to try the case. because the clerk of the court failed to comply with the order of the court in that he failed to furnish the sheriff with copy of the indictment against the de. fendant and a copy of the venire for his trial so that the sheriff nsight servest them upon defendant or on counsel appearing for him, one entire day before the day set for the trial of the defendant, as re- quire6 by law.
 Under the circumstances. Judge Evans ordered the venire quashed, and the jurors. after being paid, were discharged. The case was continued until the next term of court.
 The Pate Giddens murder case will come up for trial tomorrow. Great in. terest isl felt throughout Russell County in the Wynn and Giddens cases.

thy Of consideration coming as
it does. from r. w. Sears, OF
Of Sears, Roebuck 4 Co., one OF
the largest and most successful
mail-order mercantile houses in
America: It's the fellow with the
second wind that wins the race.
Many advertisers get cold feet
Just about the time success

When we advertise WE are all

would consider a losing venture.
We depend upon the ultimate
results, the satisfied customer.
his permanent trade and the
trade of his friends to make our
advertisement pay. While | ex-
pertinent with details it seems to
me that this general advertising
proposition Sits itself down to
very simple principles. Talk
United States and deliver the
goods. Have something to say,
say it, and then do exactly as
you say you'll do. What we
want above all is a satisfied GUS
toner. We want his permanent
trade. To get this, we must
give the right goods and the
right prices You can't afford to
fool any Of the people any OF the
time. More than to anything
else, attribute our success to
our guarantee.

inc buzz or circular saw and cuts
through timber at lightning
speed.

A Plain Hair Cut

A good story is told by Editor
Maddux about a clustering,
self important man who walked
into a barber shop at Sherburn
the other day and wanted his
hair cut. just a plain hair cut,
and he wanted it right away.
The mild and unpretentious gen
tleman in the shop attempted to
explain, but was roughly told to
60 ahead witoout a word. After
the job was finished the old man
looked into the glass and was
Mortified at his appearance. He
fairly stormed around, and in.
dignantly asked the gentleman
if he called that a hair cut. The
man replied: don'tknow. You
must ask the barber. He'll be
in presently. | am the editor Of

Shocking Accident

Word was brot to town Thurs
day to the effect that the son of
Frank Wipert, a Russian farmer
living about twenty-five miles
southwest OF Rugby, had his
head blown entirely off by a shot
gun. 1t seems that the father
sent the boy into the house to
get the gun, which was hanging
on the wall. The lad, in getting
it down, discharged it in some
way, just how will probably new
er be known, and the entire
charge was blown straight at the
head OF the young lad, with the
above mentioned result. Fur
ther particulars were unobtain-
able at the time of this writing.
A neighbor was sent to town at
once and Benson 4 Holbrook
furnished the necessary under
taking supplies. -Rugby Optim-

A Few Figures

I. T. Zook of near Surrey has
three acres of potatoes and gar.
den besides, 36 acres of wheat,
81 acres Of oats, 60 acres off1ax.
He will undoubtedly make
enough money on the land in
crop to pay for it at ten dollars
an acre. Edward Nelson who
lives four miles southwest OF
Minot has 10 acres Of millet, So
acres OF wheat, 40 acres of oats
and II acres OF speltz. He re-
ports his crops fine and expects
to make a small minteof money.
VIM. H. Rouse Of Wayne has -
acres in crop. J. w. Clear north
OF Surrey has Is acrrs OF crop.
O. A. Arnett has a like number.
D. d. Moore OF Berthold has Is
acres Of wheat, Is acres of oats,
n
and so acres OF flax. j. w.
Moore OF Bowbe)ls has 20 acres
OF wheat, 40 acres OF flax, 40
acres Of barley and 30 acres OF
flax. These are not the greatest
raisers Of grain in the county by
any means, but their crops are
in well and they will realize a
nice bank account after the
threshing is done this fall. The

The Value of an Ad

Regarding the value OF adver-
Using in any line OF business an
exchange tells the followingya yarn
which will doubtless prove self
explanatory:
"A young man bought a shirt
OF a merchant who did not adj
vertise. Inside the garment he
found a note written by a young
lady who made it, requesting the
purchaser to write her friendly
letter, il he was matrimonially
inclined. The young man was,
and FASTENED his missive with a
special delivery stamp. In a few
days he received a reply stating
that the former lady maker OF
masculine shirts had been mar
ried three years, and was the
happy mother OF two children.
She wanted to know why her
correspondent was SO slow. He
interviewed the merchant, and
found the shirt had been carried
in stock four years. Even the
dullest business man should be
able to figure out the moral OF
this Without the aid of a dia.
gram"

values were generally 10c higher
The shipping outlet expanded
considerably, and exporters were
also good traders. Beeves
Weighing 1889 to 145S lbs sold
at $500, and a big string OF
branded Herefords averaging
1871 lbs went over the scales at
$G.4O. Steers averaging 1857
to 1888 lbs changed ownership
at $3.50 to $500, with several
large punches Of medium brand
ed steers at $3.50 to $3.50, and
most OF the plain light cattle at
$4.9O to $3.50, with inferior
kinds down to S4.25. Yearlings
Of good quality sold at $3.50 to
$6. 20.
Sheep house scenes were ami
mated at prices 10 to 25c high
er. Choice 1856 lbs western sheep
found a ready outlet at $4.5O,
and there was a strong demand
for western ewes at$4.OO. Range
lambs averaging close to Ga Tbs,
sold at $685.; tops landing at
$3.50.
All indications point to a
speedy settlement OF the strike,
and when peace terms are agreed
upon by packers and their strik-
ing employees the price trend will
be higher than a cats back or
everything in the four-footed
line that wears hair or wool. We
cannot urge too strongly upon
beef and mutton growers the ad-
visibility OF cashing in their
crops Immediately after the
strike is settled for the flood
gates of demand will be wide
open and fancy prices will pre-
vail.
