Ell TalentO.

Ell talento es una paiabra de que
en- todos tiempos Sc ha abasado, Y
que hoy Sc sigue abusando mas
que nunca.
Todo el mundo habla del talen-
to, y cada cual 10 comprende a su
manera.
Para ciertos filosofos el talento
es no entenderse unos a otros.
Para algunos sabios eI talento es
no entender de los demas.
Para el vulgo de los ignorantes,
el talento habla en- Ingles.
Para el yulgo de los eruditos, el
talento habla en- aleman.
En- Italia SO calcula el talento
por bemoles; en- lnglaterra por H.
bras esterlinas; en- Francia por ca
lembourgs, en- Espana por la serio
dad de cada individuo.
Para ell avaro, el talento es del
color de los billetes de banco y dc
los titulos del tres.
Para los lnuchos polfticos, & ta-
lento tiene la forma de una cartera
ministerial.
Para los aspirantea 4 sabios, el
talento equivale a unos lentes rasos,
este es, sin graduation.
Para los hijos de la moda, el ta-
lento es su madre.

robbery of the store after which it was
set ON fire. With him were four or
five McGregor youths, who together
with the cripple are under arrest.
The cripple and one of the boys were
taken into Dubuque and returned to-
day for preliminary hearing. The in.
cendi arism was revealed by one Of
the boys who in drunken spree
quarreled with thu rest. The gang
had stolen overcoats. clothing and
numerous other wearing apparel which
officers found hidden under an old

about 5000. The boys are all under
age and will be sentenced to the re-
formatory. -Lnsing Mirror.

G.. ReiSner Suicides,

Driven to madness by the pain nf
blood poisoning and the knowledge of
his impending death, Mr.. Charles
Reisner, a well-to.do farmer living in
Fayette county just across the line
from Fredericksburg township, and
owner of farm in that township,
committed suicide by hanging himself
last Saturday morning. near bayfield,,
Mimi. Last December Mr.. Reisner
lost a hand in corn shredder
accident, the wound never healed pro-
perly and blood poisoning developed.
In company with his pastor, Rev.
Sterling, of Richfield, he went to
Rochester, MINI, last Wednesday. The
doctors there gave him no hope and
advised that he go home. This he did
not want to do but finally consented.
After leaving Dodge Center. he became
violently insane and Rev. Sterling,
who was the only occupant of the car
with him, was unable to control him.
As the train pulled into Haytield he
jumped through the car window and
when the train stopped and search
was made for him he could not be
found. Rev. Sterling remained in
Hayfield and secured assistance to find
the demented man, but it was not till
early Saturday morning that his life
less body was found hanging to tree
about three quarters of mile from
the place where he jumped from the
train. New Hampton Tribune:

Hans Raske, one of the good farmers
of Grundy county, has adopted a plan
to make high priced land pay better
returns. He plows the same piece of
ground twice in the fall. The first
blowing is done as soon as the harvest
is over and the last before corn pick
ing begins. Mr., Raske made his ex-
periments last fall and this year he
got his reward. The land that was
fall plowed was put into corn. 1t
Welded fifteen bushels to the acre
more than the land which was plowed
but ouce. 1t is general custom in
Germany where land is mnch higher
in price than here to plow land twice
in the fall, but in this country the
farmers who put in this extra work
are rare. AMI yet it pays well as the
experiment in this country has proved.
The higher the land goes in price the
more it will have to be coaxed to make
il earn what it is worth in the market.

Jury Finds Murder Justified.

William Clark was acquitted by the
jury at Dubuque Thursday afternoon
of the murder of Leroy Sumner, whom
he found with his wife. Sumner had
paid attention to Mrs. Clark for
months while he was with the defen-
dant, running a spindle wheel at
county fairs, etc. Clark warned him,
and when he found the two together,
he shot and killed Sumner last
October. The jury had been out
several hours. The plea of temporary
insanity was made, but the defense
of his home won. The sentiment
was strong for acquittal, the spectators
in the courtroom cheering the verdict.
