Literary Meeting.

The last meeting of the literary society
was held at the home of Mrs. f. \.
Wardwell with Mrs. karr as assistant
hostess. There was large attendance
and a good time. The feature of the
evening was the final closing of Gas You
Like It. in semisero costume by four
ladies and six gentlemen, which created
a great deal of amusement as some of
the costumes were very ''intense' to say
the least The end of the dining rom
was converted into a forest scene by the
addition Of some trees and foliage and
the "stheatricals" were much enjoyed.
Prof. Fitch gave an interesting sketch
of wpnaerings about Naples and Mr.
Heneman gave long string of current
events which proved that he would make
a good local editor. After which the
gentlemen we've excused while the ladies
proceeded to select officers for sthe sue
ceeding year 1t was voted to have a
picnic meeting sometime during the
summer. The following is the roster of
officers selected: President. Mrs. Bur-
ley: LIST vice-prcsident, Mrs G. G. Thorn
son: End vice president, Mrs. II. Fl.
Moore: Secretary Miss Vida McCaffery
Treasurer Miss Belle Mckay. The re-
port that was maliciousy circulated IN
the parlor while the ladies were holding
their election in the dining room that
the teliers found the names of twenty
four dtferentlad on exactly the same
number of ballots was found to be an er-
ror. The society has proven very
pleasant and profitable method of spend
ing some of the winter evenings and
have also been very enjoyable socially.
All members will look forward for the
inject again. time with pleasant antic-
pations.

CARLISLE.

The school in district % closed on
Friday last.
We understand that Mr.. and Mrs.
John Moore, of Morgan Hill, Cal. are
expected here in the near future.
The rains of the past two weeks have
been of inestimable value to the growing
crops and bountiful harvest seems to
be assured.
A large amount of corn IS being plant
ed, some having put in as high as thirty
five acres. Some of this is being plant
ed with view of harvesting the matur-
ed corn and the rest for fodder.
There appears to be great scarcity
Of h; J in this vicinity. Very few farm
ers have enough to put them through.
The prospects are excellent for good
crop Of hay the coming season however.

Ernest Hale Drowned,

.f IS. i .5fs q
Wednesday afternoon about three o.
clock Ernest Hales aged about nineteen
years while bathing in the Pembina river
just beyond the city limits while at
tempting to swim the river became ex.
hausted and sank. He was not good
swimmer and. while he had attempted
the feat in the forenoon it was with
much difficulty and he had been warned
by the other boys few minutes before
his death not to go across. A number
of large boys about his age and some
smaller lads had swan across the stream
and were playing some distance above
Three or four smaller boys who were not
undressed were on, the shore. Ernest
without saying anything attempted to
swim across the river distance in d.
rect line of about fifty feet, but as the
current is quite strong would require
considerable more distance in swimming
across. The smaller boys hardly noticed
that their was anything wrong until he
no outcry whatever, then when they saw
that he was drowning they screamed to
the older boys who were some distance
away, and they came running but in the
meantime the drowning boy was being
rapidly carried down stream making the
distance still farther and when they ar
. rived he was down for the fourth and
last time.
A large number searched for the body
during the afternoon and on Thursday
morning dynamite was used in trying to
raise the body. At one o'clock party
with hooks and lines found the body a
short distance from where he was last
seen.
Ernest Hales was boy of exemplary
habits, energetic in his studies and liked
by all who knew him. The morning he
was drowned he finished his final school
examinations, and planned go to the
farm the following day to assist his faith
err with some work.
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Hales, the bereav-
ed parents, are pioneer residents near
Humboldt, MINI, and last fall moved the
family to this city for the privileges Of
the schools here, and which Ernest and
his two younger sisters have since been
attending. There are also little broth
err and sister in the family too young to
realize their loss. Mr.. Hales was absent
at his farm at the time of the accident
and the Ladies Aid Of the Presbyterian
church were being entertained by Mrs
Halcs at the time.
Mr.. Hales and family left with the
body for Hallock last evening and the
funeral services will be held there to-day
at three o'clock and the interment will
be made in the Hallocll cemetery by the
side of other departed members of the
family.
We hardly need add that the bereaved
family have the deepest sympathy of all
our citizens SO many of US realize that
it might have been cur own boy instead
of Ernest Hales.

Miss Grace had been with Mrs. Bemls
five years, and had cared for her as IL she
were her own mother.
1t was very hard for her to tell dear old
Mrs. Bemis that she was going to leave
her TO take up a claim. Yet she knew that
she would have to leave Saturday and she
could not go without giving a few days
notice.
1t was Thursday morning that Grace was
going to tell her; but the breakfast and
hurry of work kept her mind quite busy
until she had forgotten IL. About IL o'clock
the postmsn left a letter for her. II was
from the homestead agent stating the
special train on which she was TO leave
was to be delayed until Monday.
Now Mrs. Bemis will have time to get
somebody before l leave said Grace to
herself as she went upstairs 10 tell Mrs.
Bemis CT her plans.
Mrs. Bemis was very much disappointed
and said she feared she would not be cared
for her as Grace did.
Then Grace reminded her OF the little
want ad In The Bee five years ago, which
she answered.
IN tell you what we will do" said
Grace, Il will call up The Bee and have
an ad put In for tonight's paper"
IAN right" said Mrs. Bemis.
So the above ad was 'phoned The Bee
office.
The next day about I o'clock a lady
called. She was a sweet-faeed, middle-aged
lady with silver gray hair. She was neatly
dressed In white. She talked with Mrs.
Bemis for a while. Then Grace showed her
tho house and told her the care Mrs. Bemls
required. She seemed TO like the place very
well and Mrs, Bemis seemed TO think that
she was Just fine, so she told her 90 come
Monday.
Grace felt very happy now, for she knew
that her kind old friend would be happy.
She left Monday Just a little after Mrs.
Thayer (for that was the future care
takers name) arrived.
About a month later Grace received a
letter from Mrs. Bemis telling her how
happy she was and that Mrs. Thayer was
no stranger, but her husbands long lost
sister.
AS Grace finished her next letter TO Mrs,
Bemis she added the =. S. We know what
