A Good Lincoln Story.

From the St Louis Post Dispatch.
 Henry E Dixey, the actor, sat restfully at the makeup table in his dressing room between acts at the Century and dis cussed American humor. Himself one of the most famous raconteurs, MT. Dixey also loves to hear funny story.
 The American funny story is the fun niest story in the world" he said. '.Hu- nor, as differentiated from wit, is dom inant in the American temperament and almost unconsciously, 1t affords the Amer can view of life at every moment We look at life through humorous eyes If things don't go right. we make a joke of the mischance.
 Abraham Lincoln was the greatest American humorist of all time, and it was he who told what has always seemed to me the funiest story ever heard in my life.
 "A group of his cronies were in his office swapping experiences, spinning yarns and comparing notes on life as they found it. They drifted to the subject of romance and sentiment in life, and the talk at last centered on the bliss of love-making. of 'courting' girls and feeling that you made them fall in love with you by your superior charms Finally some one of the party asked Lincoln for his personal views on the subject.
 ''Old Abe strengthened out his lank and ungainly frame and quizzical smile stole across his exceedingly homely face.

In fact gen. tlemen, it reminds me of the story of the poor little country jake boy who saw an- other and more fortunate boy eating a big piece of gingerbread.

BABY CARAVAN.
Royal Carriage for Baby Princess
 Julana.

The Hague. Holland, October 9.-Baby Princess Juliana now takes exercise in an elaborate sort of caravan invented by her mother. Queen Wilhelmina. The novel carriage is used for taking the royal infant to sheltered spots in the park of Het Loo, and protecting her from the weather during the short journey. It contains space for an ordinary baby carriage, seats for nurses and a small stove for heating food as well as warm ing the interior with other appropriate fittings.
 As the court remains at Het Loo until the middle of December, this caravan will be just the thing for the baby princess during the chill autumn days.

SCHOOL WAS NOT
LISTED,

The Warren High Sshool made al.
pllcatlon to the state high school
board to be listed as state agricul-
tural high school, under the law en-
acted by the late legislature grant
ing state aid to such schools as main
tain an agricultural department.
Under this law not more than ten
schools were to be given aid this year,
and not more than ten every two
years thereafter. AS Mcintosh, Wells,
Glencoe and Cando had for some time
maintained agricultural departments
in their respective schools, these
towns had a priority claim to be
placed on this list. There remained
therefore but six schools to be pro-
vided under the law, while there were
nearly fifty applications from schools
all over the state to get on the list.
The matter came before the state high
school board on Tuesday, and the
school board sent Prof. G.. E. keenan,
and C. E. Lundquist to present the
claims of Warren. The commercial
club also sent August Lundgren as
delegate to assist in urging Warren's
claim to recognition. About 80 delega-
tions from other towns also appeared
before the nigh school board in behalf
of their respective localities. Warren
made as good a showing as any and
the members of the delegation felt
sanguine to the very last that their
efforts would succeed; yet, when the
final decision was made this city was
not included The successful towns
are: ALERT Lea, Red Wing, Lewis
ton, Cokato, Hickey and Alexandria,
all of them located in the southern
half of the state. The fact that an
agricultural school is located at
CrookstCn, no doubt was factor in
dashing the hopes of towns in the
counties ado ming Polk.

The preamble of the Murphy resolu.
ton claims that the two judges ac-
companied certain railroad ATTORNEYS

members of the party were arrested
for violating the game laws of the
state.
The resolution charges that Judge
Philips neglects his duty by continued
absence from the bench, and that
when he does preside the court is in
session only four hours each day.
Mr.. Murphy desires the general con-
duct of Judge Phillips investigated.

attorneys who are compelled to prac-

instructed at various times that the
jury bring in certain verdict. If the
jurors bring in a different verdict, de-
clares the resolution, Judge Phillips
becomes insulting and practically
charges that they have violated their
oaths as jurors.
The resolution recites the various
phases of the litigation, including a
statement that the railroad companies
agreed to establish certain rates within
the state of Missouri in violation of
the law.

RED RIVER VALLEY FARMERS

SMILE THAT DON'T COME OFF,

A heavy rain last night, furnished
the moisture which fields and
meadows were greatly in need of, and
that will start the wheat and the
grass growing with leaps and
bounds. All the wheat practically, in
this part of the valley, has been seed
ed, only some oats, barley and flav re-
naming to be put into the ground.
Surely, the farmers of the valley have
good reason to be elated over the
prospects thus far, and all are hoping
for repetition of the bumper year,

Mr.. Jerry E. Flint, of River Falls.

stroke of apoplexy last Sunday night.
at the home of G. c. Winchester in
this city, with whom he was visiting
at the time. Mr.. Flint had been here

visitor to Warren, especially in the
early days, and had wide circle Of
friends here and thruout the valley.
In late years his health had not been
very good and about a year ago he
suffered stroke of paralysis, which
at that time came nearly to being
fatal. He seemed, however, to be in
fairly good health during this his last
visit. On Sunday he attended d.
vine services twice and dined at the
home Of a friend, feeling quite cheer
full. He retired Sunday night appar-
emily we'll and cheerful, but about II

Winchester's household and complaint

RECKLESS DISCHARGE OR FIRE.
ARMS.

Last Monday forenoon a party of
three Cor four students from North
Star College, took walk out to the
fair grounds, for the purpose of secur-
ing exercise and recreation. When
passing the ticket Office, short dis.
tance from the entrance to the
grounds, a bullet came kissing through
the air, and hit Anton Johnson, of
Kennedy, MINI. The missile passed
through the shoe and lodged in the
heel between the tendons and bone.
The shot came from the woods along
the river between fair grounds and
the cemetery and the young men
could plainly see the party who did
the firing, altho they were not suf1i-
ciently, close to recognize him. No,
knowing how badly their companion
had been injured, besides being further
excited by the Kissing of two more
bullets in the grass in front of them
after the first shot had been fired, the
young men hurried away from the
spot as quickly as possible, and did
not watch the careless individual who
had done the shooting, which they
might easily have done. The young
man who was shot was taken to the
DOCTORS office and~later to the city
hospital, where the bullet has since
been extracted. The wound is not
considered serious, but Mr.. Johnson
certainly had a very narrow call and
recklessly had handled a dangerous
for any rifle practice in the future.
AS soon as the authorities heard of
the affair, efforts were made to find
out the identity of the party who so

In this connection it is opportune to

firearms by boys or young persons.
Section 5025, of the statelaws, pro-

of IA years, shall handle or have a
firearm under his control. Section

or give any firearm to minor under
the age of Is years. Offending either
section is misdemeanor punishable
by fine of not exceeding $4,000, or
Imprisonment not more than 80 days.
Section 1864 provides that frearm
