CHAPTER XIX.

Ii was rather annoying to Polling that
just now, when he was anxious to make
the most Of his chance with Ethel, her
fathers absence prevented his carrying
out his design. He fretted and fumed
impatiently over MI. Mallett's letter
telling of his enforced absence for a
weeh-when he first received 1t: and
then. seeing the uselessness of repining,
he set about making plans for relieving
Ethel's loneliness.
He wrote her a letter, telling her he
regretted now more than ever that he
had neither mother nor sisters, not even
a stray aunt, as, if he had, he would
press them into play propriety. and carry
her OF a prisoner to spend the week at
the Wigwam. Then he made appoint
ments at the publishers, always taking
care TO arrive before her, and gener-
ally, after putting her into a cab, re-
turning for a last ten minutes chat with
MIR. Bramwell before starting himself.
Then there was usually either a letter
on business, Of course-or a novel by the
morning post: and later oil. in the day
would arrive a box of lovely loose bios
SONS or a basket of late grapes and
peaches. So Ethel was always being
pleasantly reminded that her happiness

New Rockford correspondent of
Forum: What's that? What's that?
were the exclamations we heard which
attracted at attention of all along the
street, from house and yard: It's, a
load of pumpkins, was the reply. Yes,
load of the largest kind of big, yell
low pumpkins. Presiding over and
driving team and load was the ever
gallant James Hamilton, taking them
to market from the farm of Hon. Don
aid Niven, two miles east Of town.
About an hour before the above oc-
fturrence, we heard the remark,
Pumpkins cannot be raised in North
Dakota" There are other equal sur
prises in store for the people of this
state. Cant" is the word that should
be wiped out in North Dakota talk OF

Burned to Death.

Underwood Miner: Last Friday
morning between the hours of and, 5
O'Clock a. m. fire destroyed the shack
causing Ole Sexlund to lose his life.
Sexlund was a homesteader who lived
on a claim about six miles north Of
Coleharbor. He and a neighbor had
been to Garrison on Thursday and
while there loaded up pretty heavily
with booze and on arriving home was
unable to get into the house SO the
neighbor after helping him into bed
left for his home leaving the light
burning as Sexlund had requested him
ito do.
1t appears from what could be
learned that Sexlund had upset, the
lamp which was placed on the table
close to the bed and he being in
paralyzed condition was unable to put
the fire out or even to save himself.
Sexlund was GA years old and was.
highly respected by all who knew him.
He aeaves a wife and several children
to mourn his loss. VIM. Sexlund. his
son. arrived on Monday and accom-
panied the remains back to the old
home at Lisbon, ND.

THE NORTHWESTERN WAY.

Refusal to Make Political contribu-
Dubuque Morning Telegraph, Sept.
20: During the strenuous days Of the
political campaign of 1895, the chair
man OF the republican congressional
co COMMITTEES for the Dubuque district
interviewed Mr.. j. G. Garland, general
agent of the Northwestern Mutual Life
Insurance company of Milwaukee. He
stated that other large life insurance
companies were making campaign con
tributions, because Of the money cues
ton and he requested Mr.. Garland to
write to the Northwestern, soliciting
a contribution from them.
We produce below the Northwest
ems reply to that request which
shows the view of the officers Of that
company regarding political contribu.
tons from policy holders funds.
Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance
Co, Agency Department, Milwau-
kee. Sept. 14th, 1896:
Mr.. J. g. Garland, Dubuque, Ia: Il
Dear Sir: your letter Of the 10Th
inst, you state that the chairman OF
the republican congressional commit
tee had interviewed you and requested
that you solicit from the Northwestern
a contribution Of 500 toward the cam
paign fund to aid In carrying the cleo
ton for sound money. This company
has never made a contribution Of that
sort. We have felt that we had no
right to make a contribution even in
cases where a great disaster had over
taken city or section of the coun-
try. We are aware that some COM
panies have made contributions in
some OF these cases, but under orr
-aarter, and as we understand our
duty, we have felt compelled to de-
cline when requests have been made.
There are both democrats and repub-
Leans on the official stan. Of this COM
pany but We are without exception this
fall IN favor Of sound money and shall
vote accordingly. We have no sym-
pathy with the free coinage Of silver.
but we do not feel at liberty to take
part as company In any political
campaign. Undoubtedly a large num-
Der Of our policy holders believe in the
Tree coinage OF silver and they GER
oaaniy would have q grievance il the
ofhcers OF the company should CON
tribute towards expenses in opposition
to their views.
Yours truly,
Willard Merril.

that she was resident Of Minnesota

Ward county without a superintendent.

much emphasis that Miss RoseqIe
Knott would play the part OF MARY
Tudor, and would be supported by a
large and excellent company. Results
were far from justifying this promise.
Miss Knott did not appear at all, her
part being taken acceptably, it
is trueby Miss Anna Day, and, aside
from the King" and tCaskoden," the
company was exceedingly poor. No
excuse was made for the non-appear-

ever, the play itself Is full Of merit and
Miss Days work pleased the audience.
