then he would kill Baraka at his
leisure. If he fired at her first the
traveller would have chance at him

Twas ONLY q Rat.

Late Saturday night as a couple of
men were passing F.. T. Kettelhodt's
store they beard a. noise within like
the rattling Of crockery or glassware
and concluded that burglar must be
at work. They speered through the
windows but could distinguish no
human form Notwithstanding the rat
thing still continued. Mr.. Kettelhodt
was then called up by 'phone and, the
alarm having been spread. men ar
rived from all quarters armed with
revolvers, shotguns, axes, baseball
clubs, etc. 1t was half an hour before
Mr.. Kettelhodt arrived at the store
and then the building was we'll
guarded. Determined men stood at
the front and back doors while the
rattling within ceased not. Cautious
~ opening the front door, Mr.. Kettel-
hodt bade the men to be on the alert
and, striking match, he saw-a big,
fat rat scurrying across the crockery
shelves! "It's only rat, boys" he
exclaimed, and dissatisfied lot of
would-be burglar annihilators stole
silently away in the darkness.

Horses That Are Horses.

my barns to see that I have the best
selection of horses in this part of the
country. They are superior in every
respect to the horses usually offered
for sale at auction, and the prices are,
as rule, lower. And then, again,
you have the advantage of examining
them before buying and of getting
your money back should they no,

holdings of the street car and railroad
magnate having been disposed of by
deed and assignment to his heirs be.
fore his death.
Settlers residing on Minnesota
lands under the homestead laws will
not in the future be allowed to dis.
continue living on their claims because
they hold public Office, as has former.
~ been the case. The new rule goes
into effect on April I. It will not
affect those who have already taken
claims in this manner, but after the
stated time the custom will be discon-
tinued. Up to this time homesteader
could get out of living on his claim
by getting an appointment to some
public office. This has now been
changed and only those who hold some
elective Office can, under the law, leave
their claims and still have the right
to prove up.
There is going to be real shake-up,
it is said, in many counties of the
state on account of the laxity of the
officers of the law and their utter in
difference to bring desperate men
to justice. The matter will be taken
up by bankers of the Interstate Pro-
tective association, an organization
for the protection of banks of the
northwest, against forgers and yegg-
men, and lively fight is expected.
The complaint has been made by de-
tectives OF the association many times
in the last three months, but the
trouble came to a climax on Saturday
when the county officials at Olivia,
Renville county, gave Jimmy"
Gaynor and his confederate their
liberty.

.JAPS ARE DETESTED.
Aulger RiHes, Just Returned From
California, Says Japanese Are
Curse Of Pacific Slope.
Climate of California Is Salubrious and
Country Broad Expanse Of
Fragrant Blossoms.

Aulger Rines returned on Saturday
from a visit of two months at Stock
ton, California, where his wife and
daughter are spending the winter, ne
and other points on the Pacific coast,
Including San Francisco. Mr.. Rines
was, as Ted Roosevelt would put it.,
"dee-lighted" with the climatic con-
dltions which prevailed on the slope.
In the rural districts it was one great
sea of blossoms-blosso every where
"a magnificent, enchanting scene.
But then, there was downpour of
rain which lasted throughout the
month of January-such a downpour
that had not been known in many
years. It was, of course, an exception
at least Mr.. Rines was told so by
the natives.
On being interrogated on the Jap
anese situation Mr.. Rines said that,
from Investigations which he had
made and the conditions apparent to
the most casual observer, the Jap
anese should not only be excluded
from public schools but driven out
OF the country. Roosevelt, as main
tanned by the Union, had no right
to interfere-to scare or coerce the
California legislature into the recon
sideration and killing of the segre-
CATION bill," said Mr.. Rines. Gle
knows not the conditions which pre-
vail. How would he like to have his
children sit side by side in the public
schools with adult Japs of the most
immoral type: He would not, of
course, permit it. In this Jap school
question he has lots to ]earn-he is
Ignorant of the true situation. Cali
fornia-s detest the Japs they are alb
horred even more so than the Chinese
and predict that, unless Japanese
exclusion act is passed, the dwellers
on the Pacific slope will, sooner or
later, arise and drive every one of the
brown runts out of the country"

Illinois Senator Is Railroad Magnate

scheme to exploit what is known as
the Costilla land grant The Costilla
State Development Company, the Co.'S
tilla Power Company, and the Costilla
Irrigation Company all have been
launched with the railroad, and Sena-
tor Lorimer and Congressman Weeks
have shares in each.
The president Of the new railway
company happens to be Franklin E.
Brooks, who a few years ago IDLY rep
resented the state of Colorado at
Washington as represen alive at large.
Therein lies the story of how Messrs.
Lorimer and Weeks were allowed to
participate in the good thing out in
Colorado. The most important house
committee on which Mr.. Brooks
served while in congress was the COM
mittee on agriculture. Mr.. Lorimer
and Mr. Weeks were fellow members.
They sat side by side in many i'm
portant meetings of the committee
during the packing house inquiry and
the discussion of the pure food bill.
Naturally they all became fast friends,
and accordingly when Mr.. Brooks re-
turned to private life and visited the
east in search of capital for his new
projects he sought them out and won
their approval and financial support
Thus it was through his member
ship on the committee on agriculture
that Mr. Lorimer has been afforded
the opportunity of becoming rail-
way magnate.

Plan for Reunion,

Adiutant General ]. A. Webb, of the
Mississippi division, United Confederate
Veterans, is in Vicksburg, where he will
confer with the Vicksburg members in
regard to the date for the State reunion,
to be held in that city during the au-
tumn. Personally Gen. Webb had IA
vored date i'll September, when prob
ably larger proportion of those vet
Grams who are farmers would be able to
attend, having more leisure then than at
any other time This has been objected
to, however, on account of the usually
warm weather which prevails during
that month.
The date, when finally named, will
probably be early in November, after all
those Vicksburgers have returned from
their summer vacations, and when the
city can put forth its very best efforts in
the way of entertaining the visitors.
That the reunion will be largely at
tended is certain, as this event, next to
the general reunion, is the biggest thing
the Mississippi veterans have. And there
will be many more of them in attend
ance than ever attended the larger event,
because they are closer to it, many being
both physically and financially unable to
stand the longer trips.

ALCOHOL IN "SOFT" DRINKS.
Abstinence from Liquor Would Be Ma
terially Checked If Non-AIchoIic
Substitute Found.

In an editorial on "The Extraordin-
airy Nastiness of Temperance Drinks"
the London Lancet says there can be
little doubt that the cause Of abstin-
ence from alcohol would be material
ly served If good, palatable, non-alco-
holic drinks were forthcoming. The
writer adds that those who are in
terested in the sale of alcoholic drinks
would possibly view with dismay the
discovery of a really attractive tenn
perance beverage.
There is a better chance, we ven
ture to say" the article continues.
"by encouraging the consumption of
light alcoholic liquids-e, g, claret,
hook. beer-or if it is wished to ban
alcoholic altogether, by offering a non
alcoholic beverage which is whole
some, and which will appeal success
fully to the esthetic sense. AS it is,
few, if any, so-called temperance bev-
erages can compare favorably from
the point of view of palatability or of
aceeptableness in general with malt
OF grape liquors. And it is curious
that several of the temperance bev-
erages which enjoy favor with tee
toatlers contain an appreciate amount
of alcohol.
Some teetotalers in their inpo-
cence, while aghast at the idea OF
drinking a light hook or claret, do
not object to ginger-wine, which, rel
atively speaking, is highly alcoholic"
