Death Of Mrs. Jesse Remington.

Mrs. Julia Anna (Allen), wife OF Jesse
A. Remington, breRthed her last at a
quarter to eight Sunday morning, when
death came as a blessed release from a
martyrdom of suffering that had been
hers for nearly two years.
It was in Octobr, 1904, that Mrs
Remington. who was living in Bellows
Falls, was first taken with pleuro-tuber-
culosis and in the following April she
came to the home of her parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Henry Allen. Immediately after
her arrival, water was drawn from her
side and the Both OF May she was re
moved to the sanatorium, where for
months surgical and medical skill was
eXerted to save her life.
The disease, alas 4! had firm hold upon
her system, and permanent relief was
sought in vain. After a time she re
turned to her parents to receive the
untiring minstrations of mother. who
counted no sacrifice too great to purchase
a moments ease for the pain racked
body of the sufferer. and Mr.. Remington
gave up his work in Bellows Falls to be
with her and ease as much as possible
her few remaining days. Her brother
Herbert, also removed here from Bellows
Falls, and, surrounded by her nearest ana
dearest, she sank gradually away.
Mrs. Remington, who was 2s years old
the 2sth of May, was born in Northfield,
pul NJ the age OF I'VE months was brought
by her parents to Randolph. At Is, she
went with her family to Bellows Falls,
where her marriage occurred seven years
ago.
She is survived by her husband, her
parents, an own brother, Herbert Allen,
and two half brothers, Frank Veo of
Bellows Falls and Benjamin Allen of
Randolph.
The funeral service was held at the
house on Pearl street at O'Clock Tuesday
afternoon, Rev. Samuel Knowles, pastor
Of the Baptist church, officiating. A
quartet, composed of Arthur Vaughan,
Miss Nj. Blanche Sparhawk, w. E. and
Miss Gail Lamson, sang. There were many

Falls. another from her brothers, an age
bouquet Of carnations from the +. F.

view cemetery.
Among those present were Mr.. and
Mrs. Edward Pinney and son. George, of
Springfield, Miss Effie Remington and

GAMBLING IN OKLAHOMA OVER.
Thrifty Eastern Farmers Have Driven
Out the Men Who Ran 1t.

Out the men WHO nan lie
Today there are not five towns In
Oklahoma of any Importance where
gambling is conducted openly as 1t
was six years ago. AS late as three
years ago the biggest games ever seen
in the territory were running in Okla
homa City, though confined to upper
floors or Easements. During the last
two months all the boss gamblers In
Oklahoma City upon whom the law
could lay it's hands have been put In
Jail and kept there. They had violated
injunctions prohibiting them from
using certain buildings for gambling
purposes Guthrie has been without
it's big games for more than year.
The change Is due to activity among
religious organizations, public sem
timent that rests upon practical as
well as moral grounds and to the dis
placement of certain adventurous pion-
eer citizens by more conservative men
and women from older communities.
The explanation of an old time boss
gambler a man who came to Okla
homa at the opening, may not be with
out interest. He said:
I'm my town in earlier years, when
gambling was under full headway, the
producers were mostly farmers.
These farmers were western men who
had been with the vanguard Of western
sentiment all their lives. They had no
more hesitancy i'm gambling than they
had in smoking a cigar or taking a
drink of whisky. They had been ac-
customed to it all their lives When
one came to town with load of wheat
he put the money in his pocket, took
his team to a livery stable and went
to a restaurant or a hotel. Usually he
would stay in town all night. After
supper he would take few drinks and
then saunter around to a gambling
house, always within easy reach and
without danger of raids. In many in
stances he went home broke.
THE agricultural prosperity I'm Ok
lahoma i'm the last ten years brought
great advance i'm the value of farm
property. Farmers from eastern and
northern states began coming to Okla
homa with bank accounts. The origi-
nal settler was offered $4,000, $4,000
and sometimes as high as $4,000 for
his quarter section of land, which to
him seemed more than the land was
worth. and he sold ii and moved to
other localities. The new owners had
practised economy all their lives.
They had lived in communities where
gambling was not tolerated
when these farmers come to town
they bring produce with their wheat
or corn, and a basket of lunch to
save going to restaurant. They de-
posit their money in bank. Instead
of taking their horses to a livery sta
BILE, unless the weather is bad, they
feed them from a wagon box. This
kind of thing is not profitable for the
gambling business, but it has happen
ed in my portion of the territory and
| believe that it has happened else
where kansas City Star.

A WOLF SroRY.-A red faced man
was holding the attention of a little
group with some wonderful recitals,
says the Philadelphia Ledger.
The most exciting chase I ever
had" he said, happened a few years
ago in Russia. One night when
sleighing about ten miles from my
destination, I discovered to my in
tense horror that was being follow
ed by a pack Of wolves. 1 fired blind
ly into the pack killing one of
the brutes, and to my delight saw
the others stop to devour 1t. After
doing this, however, they still came
on. 1 kept on repeating the doses
with the same results and each occa-
sion gave me an opportunity to whip
up the horses. Finally there was only
one wolf left, yet on it came, with
its fierce eyes glaring in anticipation
of a good hot supper"
Here the man who had been sitting
in the corner burst forth into fit of
laughter.
why, man." said he, ''by your way
Of reckoning, that last wolf must
have had the rest of the pack inside
him.
"Ah!' said the red faced man with
out a tremor, now I remember 1t
did wobble a bit"

But what Of all that? Do they not
throttle venomous serpents about to
bite infants in their cribs and then
suffer themselves to be precipitately
slain by the rash fathers who mistake
the blood Of the reptile for that Of
their offspring? Do they not con-
stantly save children from drown
ing? Do they not come and notify
people that their masters are lying
helpless from injury or exhaustion in
waste places, and pull at the garments
Of the incredulous till they go to the
rescue?"
It must be confessed that arguments
like these leave the wolves and foxes
scarcely leg to stand on, and estab-
lish the dog almost unassailably In
that quality Of hero In which he has
not yet been adequately, or at least
coherently painted. His heroism IL
lustrates a thousand anecdotes and a
hundred short stories. but 1t does not
yet illumine a sustained fiction, say Of

words.-W. D. Howells in Harper's
Magazine.

We will venture to own that 1t wa:

A NovIcE.-Mike and Pat both
worked for a wealthy farmer accord
ing to a writer in the Buffalo Times.
They planned to turn burglars and
steal the money which the farmer
had hid in one of the rooms Of his
house. They waited until midnight,
then started to do the job.
In order to get the money they had
to pass the farmers bedroom. Mike
says, "I'll go first, and if it's all right
you can follow and do just the same
as l."
Mike started to pass the room
Just as he got opposite the door the
o. floor creaked. This woke the farmer,
who called out, Who's there?"
Mike answered with a ''meaw'
(imitating a cat). The farmers wife
being awake, too. said, "Oh, John
it's the cat" and all was quiet.
Now Pat started to pass the door
and as he got opposite it the floor
creaked again. The farmer called
out, Who's there?"
Pat answered, Another cat"
