We wish to have word with those who have not
yet looked into the matter. We have towns within
sight who have excluded all manufacturing and given
their attention exclusively to Resorers and in short
season make enough to supply their wants for year,
but we situated that take of
manufacturing interests without interfering with our
resident part. This new enterprise if pushed with
energy, will be equal at least to two good factories.
To the housewife it means much ready money to

The Winter Wind.
WARREN W. LAMPOR7

WARREN W. LAMPoHT.
The wild winter wind with pitiless blast
Through the shiverins trees goes hurrying
past,
And cold as the touch of the finger of death
Is the chill that is borne on its frost laden
breath.
1t busters and whirls DER the old garden
wall,
Where deeper and deeper he gathering drifts
fall;
And sweeping and swirlins and eddying back.
1t weaves a white cowl O'er the dome of the
stack.
1t rattles the doors of the stables and sheds,
Where the sheep and the cattle lie snug in
their beds;
1t stsrtles the cock from his dreamy repose,
And mocks as he wakens and sleepily crows.
Then off on its way, with froIic and scream.
1t sweeys thro' the willows that border the
stream,
And on Ger the hilltops. with deep sulIen
Till it dies in the valley and rises no more.
The while. as sit in my snug cottage home,
Think of the land where no winter shall
come:
Where every blast Of the pitiless gale
Shall die e'er it enter the beautiful vale.

Forget It,"

Some Of our most expressive phrases
come from the slang Of boys. 1t isn't
necessary to give history OF slang.
nor to speak OF the various expressions
that have grown into our language
like lot Of outlaws, who ultimately
become respectable. We want TO call
attention to one of them only, that is
"forget ii"
About one-half the things we say or
do, we should forget-and at once.
Our enmities and jealousies we should
forget; the insults which we may
fancy from time TO time are intended
for US, we should forget. The good
that we do. the evil that others do,
let us forget.
Have you ever thought about the
dispositions OF these people who never
forget. 1t used to be popular to state
that one never forgot a slight or an
insult. Men have carried knives for
forty years, land harbored hate as long.
in order TO "get even" with some one.
And such life as man leads, such
thoughts as he has, such hateful char
acter as he develops when he lives In
order to revenge himself.
There isn't anything In IL. No en-
emy Is worth that much. He who
hates another is undeserying the love
Of anyone. He who can be annoyed
by another is himself smaller than the
other. He goes about day after day
remembering the ills of the world,
harping upon the treatment of his
fellows, swearing eternal vengeance
against this man or that-yerily, he
hath his reward. and his reward is
not produced in a garden OF roses,
neither is 1t sleep inducing lullaby.
1t is best to forget It,"

San Diego, Cal, Apr. 1.-The flag

with Rear Admiral Ro>ley D. Evans
on board, arrived off Coronado early
Wednesday morning and shortly be-
fore noon the admiral was taken off
on the tender Yankton, which arrived
Tuesday afternoon, and brought to

placed at his disposal. Admiral Evans
plainly showed the effects of his i'll

said:

almost unbearable, cannot be con-
quered so long as l remain in sea

GOTCH Is WlNN Err.
Iowa Man Now Champion Wrestler of
the World.

Dexter Pavilion, Chicago, Apr A.
Seldom has sporting event of similar
character aroused so much interest in
Chicago and the surrounding cities as
did the big wrestling match between
George Hackenschmidt and Frank
Gotch. All day visitors were arriving
from outside points. More than score
came from Gotch's home town, Hum
boldt, Ia, almost 200 came from Kan
sas City, and a big delegation from
Milwaukee, while st. Paul Minnea-
polls, indianapolis, Detroit, st. Louis,
Cincinnati and scores of smaller towns
were represented. Added to these
were thousands of Chicagoans.
After more than two hours of I'M
awaiting Juggling and desperate scram-
bling the Russian said to Gotch: I'll
give you the match
For an hour and forty-fve minutes
he eluded every attempt of the Rus
sian Lion to fasten a grip on him.
Gotch side stepped, roughed his mans
features which is with knuckles. butted
him and generally worried Hacken-
schmidt until the foreigner was total
ly at loss how to proceed
When, in the clinch that finally
came, Gotch slammed his opponent to
the mat and came within an ace of Sc
curing a firm toe-hold, following this
up by lifting Hackenschmidt clear of
the mat and slamming him on his
shoulders with terrific force. the Euro
pean exponent was heart broken. The
lines slowly deepened on his face, the
hcots and gibes of the crowd hurt his
feelings, and after considering the mat
ter for a few seconds, he decided that
it was time to quit.
Few of the spectators but were will
ing to give Gotch the palm. The Iowa
farmer was in the better condition,
was quicker and trickier and showed
far better knowledge of the game.
