w. j. Sheets was in Madison on
Saturday morning and was drinking
some. He took the evening train
for Julian. After arriving there he
met Julius Stamper in Turkeys
store and asked him to go outside
with him as he wanted to talk to
him. Sheets pulled his coat and
when they reached the outside of
the building Sheets ran his hand
into his pocket. As Sheets and
Stamper had had some words over
debt due Stamper some time pre-
vious, Stamper thought Sheets in
tended to cut him, and grabbed his
arm. Sheets caught Stsmper by
the throat and began to choke him,
when he drew his knife and cut
Sheets twice in the regions of the
heart. Stamper was taken to Mad

in Jail, Sunday night at a prelim-
mary hearing before Squire Hager.
Stamper waived examination and
was sent on to the grand jury. The

Let us deal honestly and reverently
with Him whom we serve, Vow and
pay.
II is pleasant in these times to
hear OF occurrences that show the
better side of human nature. 1t is
not worth while to hate any one.
Life Is too short to cherish ill-will
or hard thoughts. What II that
man has cheated you? or that wo-
man played you false? or some
friend forsaken you? Lei it all pass.
What difference will il make to you
In a few years. when you go hence
TO that undiscovered country. All
who treat you wrong will be more
sorry for 1t than you In your deep
est grief A few more smiles. a
few more tears, some pleasure,
much pain, a little longer hurrying
and worrying in the world, some
hasty greetings and abrupt farewells
and life will be over, and injurer
and injured will be laid away and
forgotten. II is not worth while to
hate each other. This is our advice,
and like salvation It's free. Try II
