Tho chatty ENGLISH.

Every Englishman likes to be alone
and have things to himself. If he cam
not choose his company, he would rath-
er have none. Englishmen are proud
OF the national idiosyncrasy, yet here
comes one who, knowing all this, pays
1t no Difference, but sets the national
tradition at defiance and forces his In
trusiye presence on you. Why does
this nationalized Englishman, when
he may be as solitary as you wish to
be yourself, not act as every true Eng
hshman ought and so into the next
carriage or take seat at the other
side Of the room as far away as he
can get from you? By all aclxnowl-
edged laws Of English intercourse he
ought as much to dislike being near
you as YOU dislike to be near him.

But Nurenberger wasn't satisfied
He wanted more wealth. Accordingly

twenty widows and eight veterans.
The agent members Of the second
party obeyed his instructions impIic-

Nurenberger announced that he in.
tended to wed one of the widows.
Each and every other widow in the
party was up in arms in an instant.
The engagement at the outset promis.
ed to be hotter than any Nurenberger
ever had been during the war. But
he stood to his guns. y
With the tongues of seven widows
and six veterans not counting the
widow he married wagging against

MENT. OF SENTENCE WAS :.
ARGUED IN ST. PAUL.

F. w. Nurenberger, a Civil war vet
eran Of Ward county, N. D., faces a
sentence of one year in the peniten-
tiary and s2,1O0 fine because he lack
ed ability to manage and govern TWEEN
ty widows tz.,
And he doesn't prefer the peniten-
tiary to his late task, for he is striv-

Nurenberger was successful in man
aging all but seven of the widows
Then he did foolish thing for one
who had been studying the history of
Solomon and his thousand wives.
He married the widow that had the
most money.
His troubles followed in quick sue

Instead Nurenberger had formulat-

and their widows and incidentally to

His plan entailed exporting the wild
oWs and veterans to North Dakota,
where he caused them to file on home

he had selected. To expedite his
quest for a hurry-up fortune he caused
