Ten old settlers have joined the
hosts "beyond the river" since last
we met, nearly all Of them were
among the very earliest settlers in
this section, and were among the
most influential citizens in the COM
munity, three brothers, Pierce, Mum
sill, and York were ex-union soldiers
and members of thee. A. r. Sister
Fitzgerald was a woman OF strong
character and hard worker in the
cause of temperance.
The time allotted to man for use
full work is thirty-two years. Many OF
those mentioned above settled in this
section nearly forty years ago, and
spent the whole portion of their use
full life in building up and developing
this new country.
Brothers Johnson and Nelson were
rugged and strong, like the rocks OF
their native country, in their labors
for progress and good citizenship.
Brothers Fowler, York, Pierce and
Munsil were among our early settlers
and were ever the advocates Of all
things tending toward improvement
and advancement of the community.
Each of those mentioned lived busy,
useful lives, and Of some Of them it
may be said, we're Of especially inter
esting character. We will cherish
the memory of these departed ones
for the lives of industry, love and use
fulness which they lived and as valued
members of our society.

Police Linguists Meet Their Match In
 Tot Who Spoke Only English.
 Michael Flaherty, policeman of the West Thirtieth street station, in New York, is kind of heart and proud of his ability to speak Spanish and German as well as that variety of English af- fected by those who come from Tip perary, says the New York Herald. Standing in the drenching rain the oth. CT night Flaherty found at Fourth ave nue and Thirty-second street girl of about eight years, dressed like for eigner. Smiling kindly, the policeman asked the child:' N
 "Wo ist dine fader and dine nut. ter?"
 Staring blankly at her big blue coat. ed auestioner, the child merely shook her head and continued her tears.
 "Habla EspanolT' tried Flaherty.
 More head shakes and more tears.
 Then the policeman and the bedrag. gled youngster went around to the West Thirtieth street station, where Willemse, the precinct linguist, was called into service.
 Willemse spoke kindly to the waif ill French, the Hebrew of the east siie, high and low Dutch and the various Scandinavian tongues. During it all Il crowd of policemen surrounded the girl. whose tears had turned to smile; and who was biting half circles out oi an apple pie.
 Willemse retired to give place to ali Italian who had been summoned by Sergeant McGowan. Questions were fired at the child in every tongue and patois from North Cape to the gulf of Persia.
 Then just as the policemen were about to admit themselves to be baf. fed the little visitor looked out of the window and said:
 Gee. it's rainin' harder'n everv'
 She then said she was Jennie Lip. pon, seven years old, born in Brooklyn. She said her parents had recently moved and she could not give her pres. ent address.

 ''Three o'clockw echoed Sheppard in dignantly. Why, 1t is the very time for attacks and surprises. No; I'll see it out now"
 Every we'll" assented. we've got to arrange our defense, and as you are all determined not to gc to bed we may as well hold council of war;"
 Agreed" said they, and we sat down to the job without further ado. We were agreed to consider 5 in the morn ing as the break of day for our pur- poses, and we were hardly exposed to an assault before in the evening. The sky was still luminous at that hour. It was therefore plain that we must set guard upon those intermedi- ate and nocturnal hours. From till 5 was a space of nine hours. That was to determine for us watch of three. So far we settled the preliminaries of our defenses. But we had now to con slider further The drum towers com manded the slopes of the valley like two tall sentinels, and from the em- brasure of the windows watch might be kept upon the neither parts of the Gwent But from one so stationed the back of the park and the crown of the !. hill behind were quite concealed. In this connection 1t appeared that the Vi ularly as the upper chambers were readily gained from the inhabited wing of the castle, whereas the towers reared their formidable heads in isolation and led only to the corridors of the base fnent and to the battlements above. It was in the keep, then, that our sentinel must hold his silent watch. The high est chamber in the keep rose immedi- ateIy above the level of the battlements and was pierced by narrow slits in the masonry. This was a convenient sta ton, or, better still, the roof of the tow CT, with which a flight of stairs con- nected the chamber.
 We explored the keep thoroughly ere we had settled this point, and by that time it was o'clock.
 Now, you had better go and lie down." said I to the others; otherwise you will be nodding on your watches tonight. For my part, there is an hour yet to the time of safety, and take first watch.'
 Sheppard expostulated with me for what he termed unnecessary precau- ton, but I held to my point, and pres ently they left me.
