Frank xransrs Sad fIsit.

Frank Kramer's many friends
will be sorry to learn that his
visit to Pennsylvania is again
marked with sadness. He left here
a week ago to visit his father and
other relatives in that state, arriv-
ing al his fathers home at 10
O'Clock Saturday morning, 80
minutes after the old gentleman
had breathed his last, the parti-
cularly sad feature being that
Frank did not know the old
gentleman was sick. Had he lived
until March, Mr.. Kramer Sr.
would have been Sc years old. 1t
will be remembered that on the
occasion of Franks last visit east,
he was called home before he ex-
pected to return by the death of
his little boy.

The spoils Of tie Chase

The rabbit hunt turkey dinner
was held at the home of Willis
Bolinger Monday evening. and a
rattlin good time enjoyed by all,
especially was it fun to watch
Charlie Morrison and COe Russell,
the low guns in the. hunt, carve
turkey. Of one thing we are
assured, and that is that they them
selves got plenty of turkey whether
they got the rabbits or not.
The families of the participants
in the hunt and one or two outside
guests were present, and all en-
joyed the occasion very much.

solemnized at St. Peters church

duly celebrated at the Schermuly
home north east of town. We
regret that a press of business
prevented us from attending the

are well and favorably known and
We unite with their many friends
in wishing them unbounded joy
and happiness.

Hears The xay II Gees.

The Lindsbourg News says two
men went into a newspaper office
at Wellington the other day and
kicked because the paper didn't
print all the news. That night
these very same men got into
trouble and the next morning they
called at the same newspaper office
bright and early and asked that
the editor suppress the story.
People are vrey apt to condemn
the newspapers for not printing
all the news until they themselves
get into trouble and then they APP
preciate the silence on the part of
the newspaper.

ABig Workman. Meeting, and a Most
Delightful Smoker"

The A. 0. Q. W. lodge had a
smoker Saturday evening that was
a hummer not only for smoke. but
for getting the members to come
to lodge. A large number of
visitors were also present, the en-

apples, played cards talked, and
did many other things to viii lie
away the evening, and all present
enjoyed the evening". No doubt
there will be considerable good
result. to the lodge from the affair.
One. of the attractions of the
evening was a contest for an
oyster supper between party of
gentleman from the south side,
and some of the boys in town.
The banter was for four tables
of five games of whist, but at the
request of the south side boys this
was changed to two of whist, five
games, and two OF pitch eight
games. Two of the south side
boys became frightened at their
own shadow, or something else,
and did not show up. They were
Ben Kelly and Bob Bidlemen; and
Gene Smith and Monte Jordan
were substituted. The south
siders were Fred Witte, Louis

When you have about concluded
that there is no use trying any

When everything and every

The story is told of a Kansas

free railroad passes. He was away

for marrying man well up in mid
die age instead of a youth. My
observation has been," said the

rather than with a fool colt that
