GSTOW WISH we could get drink of wa.
l&l ter somewhere" said Frank Barton
E4 to his companion, Even Ross, as
IEM96 the two trudged along dusty road,
returning from an afternoons fish
ing.
Franks home was in Chicago. He was VS.
iting at his uncles farm in Central Illinois.
His companion Eben, was the son OF ten
ant of Mr.. Barton, Franks uncle.
"Well, wel go over to that house yonder
and get one" said Eben, pointing toward
farm house across the fields. Charlie Ray
lives there. He don't know me, but reckon
he'll let us have drink"
Upon this suggestion, the boys approached
the house through narrow line, hemmed IN
on both sides by an Usage orange hedge, and
knocked at q rear door.
Nobody at home" said Eben, after knock
ing several times 81 wouldn't wonder if they
were all gone to the camp-meeting over to
Hunts grove"
Heres well, but there's nothing to drink
out off, said Frank, who was looking about
behind the kitchen. "Why can't we go in
anyway? l see a dipper hanging by the
stove"
He turned the knob, and the door opened.
While they were still hesitating about taking
such liberty, fierce-loolSing dog bounded
from behind the barn, short distance off

Eben pushed Frank healong through the
door, sprang in after him, and banged the
door in the dogs face.
'Run Run upstairs quick" he shouted,
pointing toward narrow staircase.
Without an instant's hesitation, Frank
obeyed, Eben following on his heels
Together they plunged into a bed room,
slammng the door and turning the key.
They heard crash of glass as they did

The Breath of Life

It's significant fact that the
strongest animal of its size, the gorilla
also has the largest lungs. Powerful
lungs means powerful creatures. How
to keep the breathing organs right
should be mans chiefest study. Like
thousands of others, Miss Ora A.
Stephens, of Port Williams, o., has
learned how to do this. She writes:
Three bottles of DR.. Kings New
Discovery stopped my cough of two
years and cured me of what my
friends thought consumption. O, it's
grand for throat and lung troubles"

HIG H SCHOOL

The whole school was given holi-
day on Friday to view the wonders of
the county fair, free tickets of ad-
mission having been furnished to all
scholars for that day.
The boys shirked football practice
as soon it was learned that no
game could be arranged for this
week and consequently there has been
nothing doing on the gridiron for sew
eral days.
We are of the opinion that there is
at least one thing in which the Glen
wood foot-ba managers are not lack
ing, and that's nerve. We have play
ed one base ball and two foot ball
games with them here in Morris, pay
ing all their expenses for which we
have never received a return of hos
pitality. Yet we notice IN the paper
that we are on their schedule for
a game to be played here. This
isn't nerve, they are merely being
real generous-to themselves.

In honor of the county fair, the
window of Jones hardware store pre-
sents an exhibit of corn worthy of
more than passing notice. The bed
of the window is covered with shelled
corn with the legend "Grow More
Corn" worked out in the different
colors. Corn and grains are arranged
around the window in various artistic
patterns and at the back is pig made
from shelled corn. Besides this, the
outside of the store is frescoed with
corn. The decorating was done by
the regular force at the store, Messrs.
Walz, Peterson and Murray. The
window has attracted considerable at
tention and they are entitled to special
compliment for their enterprise at
county fair time.

GRE Ar1ERY BURNED.
Mr.. Ackerman Still Buying Cream
Will Continue Business.

The Morris crea merry was partially
destroyed by fire early Thursday
morning. The cause of the fire is not
definitely known, except that it start
ed in the engine room. Mr.. Acker-
man started the fire under the boiler
about O'Clock, and then went home
to breakfast. Meantime the building
caught fire, and the fire had made
good progress before it was discover
ed. The fire department responded
promptly to the alarm, and stopped
the fire very soon after getting water
on it, but in the meantime, the build
ing had been considerably damaged.
The building was insured for $1,000,
and the loss to the building will prob
ably be near that amount. The fix
lures ana supplies belonging to the
creamery association were insured for
$112O in the Mutual Creamery and
Cheese Factory Insurance Company
of Minnesota, but the loss under this
policy is only partial. Besides this,
Hanson & Alderman had their own
machinery insured, but the loss is
small.
Mr.. Alderman will continue to re-
ceive cream at the creamery and re-
pairs will be made as soon as pos
sible.

Standard Oil Prosperity.

Of all investments now offered the
public none perhaps is SO certain to
produce quick and large profits as
the stock of the Self Threading Sew
ing Machine Company of Mime
apols. This is true because the
manufacturers of this wonderful
needle have a monopoly of the bust
ness and having already a larger de-
mand then they can meet and as the
profit on needles is simply enormous
about 600 per cent-oWners of stock
in this concern are more than likely
to experience some real Standard Oil
prosperity. If you have few idle
dollars that you'd like to invest at
something like u per cent to begin
with. it will certainly pay you to in
yestigate this. The Self Threading
Needle Co.'s Offices are at snite 70s
Andrus Bldg, Minneapolis, Mimi.

James Crosse Dead.

Word was received here Tuesday
afternoon that James A. Crosse, who
had been i'll in Chicago hospital, had
died during the afternoon. The intel
ligence was received from DR.. O. F
Roam, who had been attending Mr..
Crosse during his Hines, and informa-
ton was desired as to what disposition
was to be made of his remains. 0. P.
Miller, to whom the dispatch was adj
dressed and who had been looking
after the dead mans affairs here COM
municated with relatives at 'Emmetts-
burg and Algona and it was decided
that the body be taken to the latter
place for interment. Mr.. Crosse had
been i'll for some time with compli-
cation of typhoid fever and nervous
exhaustion. His strenuous work of
the past two or three years had under
mined his usually robust constitution
and when he was attacked with the
fever there was little to build on, A
few days since Mr.. Miller was called
to his bedside in Chicago, but on his
arrival there the sick man was i'm.
proving and Mr.. Miller returned home
Saturday. Monday letter was re-
ceived that change for the worse had
taken place and Tuesday came the
word Of his demise.
Jim" Crosse as he was known to
everyone in these parts, was a pecu-
liar character. His universal good
nature andcharitable disposition made
him host of friends and while the
latter trait of his character often plac-
ed him in embarrassing circumstances
financially, there were none but ad-
mired the man for his many good
deeds. He came to Rock Rapids
about twenty years ago and for time
taught school here as assistant princi-
pal. Later he studied law with James
NJ. Parsons and after course at Iowa
City formed a partnership with that
gentlemen. He was never pleased
with his profession and left it to en-
gage in the land business. In this he
prospered until he had accumulated
considerable property. Four years
ago investments in Minnesota realty
turned out poorly for him and he was
in bad shape financially for a time.
His indominatable will, however,
caused him to keep at the business
and for two years past he had made
an immense success in selling Can
adam lands, until he was again on the
high road TO fortune. This work has
been arduous in the extreme and it
was in a great measure responsible
for his waning health.
There are many people in Rock
Rapids who will grieye sincerely over
his untimely end. Generous and open
hearted to fault, no one ever APP
preached him in distress but what he
would improvish himself to assist
them. He was a lover of little folks
and there was not one in Rock Rapids
but what had a CHEEKY good morning
| for him, and who would not swear by
him on any and all occasions. The
recording angel will find big balance
on the right side of the ledger for

reliable planters. He does not
wish to negotiate with anyone who
will take advantage of the new
comers in the slightest degree.
He expects to bend every effort
towards making the first batch OF
the immigrants contented and
happy. That they may be con-
tented they must be put in po-
sition to make money, and as any
industrious tiller Of the soil can
make money in Louisiana, all that
remains to be done is to insure
the foreigners square deal.
In discussing the effort of Mr..
Bahncke a number Of the planters
from various parts Of the State
now in the city say they believe
his is the practical movement in
the right direction to solve the inn
igraticn problem. Planters like
w. L. Foster, of Shreveport, do
everything in their power to make
it possible for some of the Danes
to settle down and provide homes
for themselves on "square deaP'
basis. The Dane desires to settle
where he can have a few neigh
bors capable of speaking his own
language. For, while they rapid
ly and readily learn the English
language and the customs of the
American people among whom
they settle, yet the laws of nature
and the ties Of kindred are very
strong with these kind-hearted
people.
1t may be expected that Mr..
Bahncke will be able to send some
immigrants here within a few
weeks. Those who will first come
have already contracted to rent OF
to buy land, and will be met here
in the city and properly taken
care of by the planters who have
been in correspondence with Mr..
Bahncke for the past several
months.-Daily States.

Such is the substance of the cir
cular which the immigration de-
partment of the State, now under

Mr: Bahncke has had experience
10 immigration in both this State
ana Mississippi, having been en-
