riage, Want to Get Married
at Once
to The Herald.

they desired to be>married.
81 believe you," said the policeman;
you Look the part"
Then marry Is,' said Mazzuchetti.
"The carriage is not here, and for us to
turn back would bring on the evil eye."

couple that he wasn't the man they
wanted, a carriage, driven by a coat
less Jehu., dashed up.
Anybody seen any Eyetclians? he
shouted.

TOO STRONG FOR HOBoES
Quantrain's Method of Protecting His
Home-It Is Too Ticklish for
Manv to Adopt

mdny TO HuOpt
MAGWAHOC, Me-, Aug. PA new
method of getting rid of tramps has
been discovered by Joseph Quantrain,
a farmer and trapper living in the edge
of the Molunkus woods. His place Is
on the direct line used by trampS, and
he Is so deligted with the way his plan
works that he is advising others to do
likewise. 1t is not likely, though, that
many folks will adopt his plan of cam
paign.
Quantrain had tried all kinds of dogs
and had even used a set gun loaded
with salt, but the tramps continued to
sneak into his barnyard, steal his
chickens and even invade his cellar.
When he was in the fields or woods
they would threaten his wife and make
themselves thoroughly obnoxious. So
one day when he met a fellow, trapper
leading tame skunk by chain he
got an idea. He set box trap, caught
voting polecat and brought it up so
that it would treat him with due re-
spect, but make IT'S presence known to
all strangers.
He kept it in an old barn at some
distance from the house, so that 1t
would not salute his friends, and at
night let 1t loose in the front yard.
The experiment worked to perfection,
for the very first night tramp came IN
contract with the little animal and beat
retreat, bowling as he ran. There
after he had no trouble with nocturnal
visitors. Let one set foot within the
yard and he instantly regretted it. Now
and then a mistake was made, but in
the long run the skunk kept pretty
close to his assignment. Now, Guam
train says, the tramps have passed the
word along that his place is no poach-
ing ground for one of the fraternity,
and they give him wide berth.

ABUSED HIS WIFE.

Wahpeton Globe: Yesterday alter
noon greatly excited young woman
rushed into The Globe Office and in
quirsd for a policeman, saying that
Ralph Bradford, 616 Eighth street north
was beating his wife and baby to death.
1t seems that Bradford, who is a young
man employed as night engineer at
the Great Northern roundhouse in
Breckenridge, has been boarding with
his wife with Mrs. Nelson, at the num-
Der given above. Three days ago Mrs.
Bradford gave birth to a baby, and
since then Bradford has been ugly to
his wife because her mother had come
here TO take care of her. Two days ago
he broke open his wife trunk and took
all the money she had and yesterday
he took d check for. $50 that her father
had sent his daughter to help pay the
Eexbense Of her illness. Bradford tried
to force his wife, TO endorse this check
so 2he could get the money on it but
she wouldn't endorse it. Then he
pounded her while she lay helpless in
bed. Bradford hiked for Breckenridge,
and il is said took the flier out of town.
He made threats of killing his wife
and baby and nlother-in-law. He is
NOT drinking man and his unnatural
conduct is hard to explain He leaves
a good-sized board bill unpaid.
