the State university. After paying in
terest amounting to a large sum, Law
renee repudiated the principal on the
bonds. The state is now trying to
force Lawrence to pay the principal.
The hearing of the case has been
much delayed. 1t was argued once.
and then, owing to the sickness and
death of Judge Green, it was decided

SECURED HIS MONTHLY WAGE
Then Wife Is Alleged TO Have Made q
Getaway.

The Springfield Advance says that
Carl Schultz, who was married to Miss
kroening in New Ulm about seven
months ago, now finds himself sud
denly without helpmate, his wife
having decamped a week ago Tuesday
from the county seat town for parts
unknown. At the time of his marriage
Schultz had in the neighborhood of
$500, but piecemeal, it is understood,
he doled it out to his wife, i'm whom
he exercised the greatest confidence.
So far as can be learned their domes-
tic relations had always been agree
able and happy. The day before she
decamped he handed her his monthly
wages, check of $50, which she
cashed and the following day bought
ticket to the cities and her where
abouts at this time are not known.
Mr.. Schultz is spoken of as hard
working man, having for some time
resided in Lamberton and during the
past two months was employed in the
New Ulm brick yards. His friends
IN this city will deeply sympathize
with him in his misfortune

Poultry Lice and Mites
Furnished By Minnesota Farm
ers' Institute, St. Anthony Park.

The lice and mites of the poultry
house are entirely different, although
often spoken of as though they were
the same creatures. Both of them
breed in the filth and damp corners of
the houses, so that cleanliness is the
greatest help in getting rid of them.
The lice are found on the walls, roosts
and nests of the house, but spend a
great deal of their time OH the fowls.
Cleanliness in the house. and thorough
whitewashing twice year, i'll addi-
ton to the furnishing of dust baths
for the fowls and use of insect powder
on setting hens, will, unusually, keep
the house pretty free from lice. The
little chicks can be treated with a
small amount of lard rubbed on head
and throat and under the wings.
The mites are harder to kill and
need more vigorous treatment. They
visit the fowls only at mealtimes, max
ing their raids at night, and then
returning to their hiding places. Kero
sene emulsion gives the best results
in fighting them. 1t is made as fol-
lows: Shave half pound laundry
soap in gallon of soft water and
boil Remove from the fire and while
hot mix in two gallons of Kerosene,
stirring with a paddle or churning with
a force pump. This Will make a thick
emtilsion. Use one part of this stock
emulsion to ten parts soft water and
apply 10 every portion of the house
with spray pump or whitewash
brush Give d second dose three or
four days later, and still another
three or four days after the second.
The emulsion will kill every mite and
louise it touches and the second and
third doses will get those that hatch
after the previous applications. = :
Dirty dropping boards are the great
est breeding places for vermin. Clean
off the boards frequently, especially
during warm weather. After each
apply air slaked lime, fine
dirt or ashes to the boards. = This not
only helps to keep down the vermin,
but will assist materially in remov
ing the droppings the next time.-Clar-
ence HI. Welch.

RUSHING The CAN HARD
JANlToR THOMPSON MUST SUP
PLY THE DRINK.
Hundreds OF the Thirsty Keep Him On
the Move All the Live Long Day,
Fall In Line.

One continual round-but hardly a
round of pleasure-that's what JAM
tor Thompson of the city hall finds
he is up against.
This round of trouble is the task of
keeping Il supply of water in all of
the five drinking tanks recently placed
on prominent corners in the downtown
district by the city authorities. Mr..
Palmer generously gave permission to
take the necessary water with which
to keep the tanks filed but it was a
question who could be asked to see
to it that the tanks were always
full until someone suggested that
Janitor Thompson was the man for the
place.
Since that time Mr.. Thompson has
been on the hump most of the time
and today he is almost on the hum
mer-to use a slang phrase. Since
the tanks have been in commission
he has been on one big long hike
with two large tin cans. He is
footsore and weary. Last night his
feet were pink or red all because of
the long march he made with the cans
during the day.
What shall Janitor Thompson do?
