best insurance for funeral expenses
offered by any Company in the Cnitcd

companies are fighting it so hard,
which is the best evidence that the

better than any other company, and

people profess to believe that their
neighborhood is nonesuch. Real neigh
borly people will select Cottagewood,
or some point intermediate to Excel
sior, and SO on down the line until a
score of choices have been examined.
While the tendency is to centralize
the good lake shore acres in a few
large individual holdings, this is offset
once in a while. AS for instance in
main lake and Carson's bay. Altho the
five acres at the point is to be main
tanned as one estate to sell at $4,000,
the rear end toward Cottagewood has
been divided up into six lots, which
will sell at $50 a foot on the lake and
$40 on the bay. T. B. Janney and H.
M. Hill have property east of Northome,
which they will probably dispose of to
desirable neighbors. The st. Louis no.

broken up into lots for sale to Sc

taken fancy to orcharding, and are
growing splendid samples Of the best
minnesota fruit. From the Bracket
fruit farm alone, 100000 strawberry
plants were sold this spring. Mr..
Bracket 8 farm is near Galpin's lake,
Just out of Excelsior, and is famous for
it's Strawberries. Fruit growers figure
that a good appletree should bring
about 81 worth of fruit in season, SO
it an easy example to figure that the
fruit farm where recently $500 fruit
trees were planted, is bound to be a
paying Investment. Ed Reel, who runs
his own farm, and his mothers farm

altogether-does a splendid business
Fl. L. Cranes Christmas lake farm is
another place which supplies a great

one and a half acres are reserved for
the growing of that delicious vegetable.

both have proved immensely successful
Many are the rose gardens around the
lake and during the latter part of
June and early in July when the
flowers are in full bloom, the gardens
are sight worth seeing. J. Brown
and Fl. B. Tillotson have made spe-
cialty of roses and their gardens at
Eureka are a curiosity. Shore Acres,
the Endsley place on st. Alban s bay,
is another place where the queen Of
flowers reigns in abundance during the
rose season. In nearly every garden
an attempt is made at raising roses and
the varieties which are now grown at
the lake are too numerous to be men
toned It is of interest to know
that one of the exhibitors at the rose
show last summer exhibited several
hundred varieties Of roses.
Mrs. Sawyer s old-fashioned hower
garden in Excelsior has proved to be
great success, and much credit is due to

by Ada Jackson, a colored house maid,
yesterday morning. No arrests have
been made, as 1t is said Mrs. Hanna
made the first assault. A quarrel
about washing clothes became heated,
and the girl, who is a muscular little
body, resented certain thrusts made
by the woman. Mrs, Hanna figured
in sensational shooting affair in
Cleveland a few yars ago, in which
she was shot in the hip by jealous

The nose breaking affair created

WHEELING, Dec. ga battle be

In 1t the man. Joseph Long, had a mar

Long, torn and bleeding, could drag

This he determined to sell and had

tusks, after watching the proceedings
for time charged at the pen and
making line for the two men gave
every evidence Of an attack. The
prospective purchaser fled to safety.
but Mr.. Long was not quite quicl;
enough and was thrown to the earth.
He protected himself as best he could
from the onslaught Of the vicious ami
NAL, which was severely injuring him
when the dog made its attack. The
moment the boar was diverted Mr..
Long dragged himself to safety, where
he was rendered assistance by friends
who had been drawn to the scene.
One long cash had been inflicted in
the hip, which extended to the lower
portion of the abdomen, exposing the
twelfth rib, while two bites had been
inflicted in the arms. DR.. Gaydosh
was called and rendered the necessary
medical attention. It took five stitches
to close the one wound.
The attack Of the boar cannot be
explained, 1t having not previously
shown any particularly vicious traits.
and the only supposltion is that the
taking of the SOW away maddened it.
