WALTER FOR SHERIFF.
Republican County Convention Name
 Him Over Durham. 67 to 27.

Republican County Convention Names
 Him Over Durham, 67 to 27.
 County Commissioner Jacob D. Wal ter, of Cheshire, was yesterday nomi- mated for sheriff of New Haven county after one of the hottest battles ever waged in republican county conven- tion. The nomination was made in the first ballot, which stood 67 for Walter and 27 for A. B. Durham, the present sheriff.
 The convention was marked by sev- eral sensational incidents. Robinson s. Hinman, of Oxford, a supporter of Sheriff Durham, in a highly dramatic manner announced, when the commit- teen on credentials reported in favor of seating the delegates from the senato- rial districts, that he could no longer participate in body so unfairly and illegally organized, and he took up his hat and coat and walked out of the convention. His exit provoked a few jeers, but when afterward he backed into the convention to cast his vote the action produced roars of laughter.

John Mcfarland charged with injury to private property, judgment suspend ed.
IN. THE JUVENILE COURT OF
 DENVER.

In Judge Lindsey's court, in the be- ginning when boys still came@there with sorrow and gnashing of teeth they saw no "guy with whiskers on a high bench" asking the "cop" ques- tions. They saw a clean cut young man come into court, go up to the first boy to be "trieds and ask: Whats the matter my boy? You been making mistake? Well, lots of fellers make
 mistakes That's nothing. I've made mistakes myself, worsen yours, I guess.n Then, turning to the police- man, he asks, What is it. officer?" The policeman tells about the crime, say theft. Stealing isn't right" says the judge, and he appeals to the boys in the courtroom: 'Is it, fellers? ?'s Putting his hand on the boys shoulder, he gives him shove and a pull for ward. "Its weak to swipe things.' That hurts Boys learn in the street that it's smart and brave to steal, and the only evil thing about it is getting caught Lots of men take this view tco. but Judge Lindsey sets up another standard. q know 1t is, he says. 8 a temptation. Its a chance toqget something easy something you can sell to get something you want, Want ed to go to the show, maybe. Well, it takes pretty strong feller to down the desire to make the chance and see the show. But it's wrong to swipe things. "Taint fair; 'tain't brave; it's just mean, and it hurts the feller that steals. Makes him steal again and he's caught and sent up-a thief. Now you ain't thief, and you don't want to be. Do you? But you were too weak to resist the temptation, so you were caught. Owing to cut 1t out. Not because you were caught. That isn't the reason feller oughtn't to steal. It's because it's mean and sneaky, and no feller wants to be mean and sneaky. He wants to be on the square. "--Lirl- coin Steffens, in MeClure's Magazine.

A woMEN's COOPERATIVE
STORE.

The city of Stockholm, Sweden, can boast the only women's cooperative store in the world. Shareholders, management, buyers and sellers are all women. Only two men are employeds these drive the delivery wagons Miss Anna Whitlock of the woman suffrR- gists in Sweden, was the promoter of this scheme Her approval was to the cultured women of small means She outlined the possibilities of this move ment in talks before the women's clubs of Stockholm. Her propaganda met with favor in the Fredrika Bremen association, Students and Workers White Ribbon and the Woman's Club.
 On April 5, 1905 Svenska Hem, as the women's cooperative society is called, was incorporated, with a mem bership of S91 women and a capital of about $6,000 Quarters were found in Jacobsbergs Gatan, and the women went to work with a will attuned and plenty of enthusiasm.
 But they found themselves. as the Americans say, "up against it!" They were boycotted on all sides. The re- tail dealers made up their minds to crush these women, who had dared to compete with them. The women soon learned that the markets of their own country were closed to them, for every wholesale dealer had been warned. To sell to these women would be nothing short of suicidal! It meant the loss of all other customers. Drivers who de- liver to retailers, were also warned but they got around the thing by making night deliveries They did not dare to drive boldly up to the women's store, as detectives were always on the alert, but they stopped in side street. some distance away, where the women sent their workmen to haul barrels, sacks, etc., to theid own storerooms.- Velma swanstow Howard, in Good Housekeeper.

Yesterday they gave a bond of seventy five dollars and got back their steed, which is worth over one hundred dol lars. Thomas B. Kellogg is the plain tiff. and alleges that he never received payment for tea route that he sold Robbins.

JONAS SOLVED THE PROBLEM.
How Shy suitor Made a Proposal of
 Marriage.

Marriage.
 In all the village of Fairview there was no man quite so any as Jonas Brown. As a child he became speech less with confusion when any one no- ticed him; he stumbled and stammer- ed his way through the gawty az; and whn h arrivd at young manhood, all though he was popular among his own sex, the sight of a girls face would throw him into an agony of self-con- sciousness. He usually took to the other side of the road when he saw a young woman approaching. Every one wondered what would happen should Jonas fall in love. At length the day came, says the Youths Companion.
 Arabella Hawkins was an attractive girl from neiGhboring town as pret- ty as she was taIkatlye, and Jonas, who first saw her at church, was captivated by her charms. A few days later he astonished all Fairview by walking home with her, and capped that per formanoe by several tentative even- lIE CdltSs put NiAtAiltl ut 0lIOlttu down fowery lanes, or sat with her on the porch in the evening, the words words he wanted to say seemed to stick in his throat,
 Could you-could you" he stam- mered on one of these occasions.
 Could l what?' she queried.
 'Could you-eould you-go, driving with me tomorrow"
 It was not at all what he had meant to say; but he vaguely felt that per- haps in a buggy 1t would be easiensto ask the momentous question. Yet even there words failed him.
 win you-will you" he began
 "Will I what?" encouraged Arabella again, very sweetly and patiently.
 Twill you" Jonas seemed to smother will you.-take walk with me to-morrow?"
 Certainly said Arabela. And so 1t went on. Jonas was getting desperate.
 Better hurry up, Jonas!" his friends urged him. There's a fellow in the town where she lives wants her just as much as you dol"
 Jonas groaned. What was to be done? He could rehearse it all right before he saw her, but in her presence words failed him, All one night he lay thinking the matter over, and rose the next morning weary yet triumph ant, He believed that he had solved the problem.
 A few days later crate arrived for him, Looks as it might be a type writer" said the station agent. Still, [ as Jonas was not given to literary pursuits, this guess seemed rather i'm probable
 That night Arabella was aroused from slep by voice beneath her window. slipping on a kimono, she leaned out listen. The tones of Jonas, a bit more nasal than she had ever hear them, reached her ear.
 q love you,' the voice in the dark said rapidly, q love you more than any one in the world. I'm not worthy of you, I know; but I'll do every thing I can to make you happy. Will you marry me, Arabella?"
 Yes, will,' said Arabella, and a few moments later Jonas trudged home with his photograph under his arm.
 I've always heard it was grand thing, and now I'm sure of it." he muttered.

Will Take no Part.

Speaking Of the prohibition
campaign soon to be on in its
territory, the Forney Headlight
comes to the following sensible
conclusion as to its course dur
ing the same 1t says:
The prohibition campaign
will soon be upon Us, and in the
outset We wish to say to the pa
irons of this paper that it will
take no part whatever in the
election either pro or con. The
prohibition question is one of
purely local interest and ques-
ton upon which a great many
good people differ, and one from
which great persona hatred
grows. For this paper to take
issue either way would not
strengthen its influence d par
tiCle in its field, but, on the
other hand, would make unfor.
giving enemies, the effects Of
which would be felt for years
Personally We are aud have al
ways been for prohibition, and
will cast our vote for a continu-
ance OF same in Kaufman Coun-
" at the election, but we posi-
lively refuse to let our business
and paper be drawn into it.
Friends on either side will be
given space for such articles as
We think are not offensive, at
the regular rate charged for To-
cal advertising. We hope this
will be entirely satisfactory to
all parties, and that we will not
have TO refer TO it again.
