that while she was soon to change her
home she could not so easily escape
this club of which she has been a val

Nav you ever remember
This April fool day,
When the showers seemed bent
On coming your way.
These few little tokens
Express on our part
The love we have for you
Deep down in our heart.
We hope all the showers
Along your pathway
May be showers of blessings
Like this one today.
We ask in return
That Won hear we'll in mind

With your new home SO near us,
We venture TO say,
This club, like the shower,
Will oft come your way.

twelve, suggested the next part on the
program. But the really next was a
complete surprise to all but the COM

gentlemen walked in to take tea with
their wives. Extra tables were quick
ly laid for the twelve additional guests
and most bountiful supper served,
with an occasional joke sandwiched in,

SWISS TO FORM NEW COLONY
Twenty-nine Thousand Buy Immense
Tract Of Land in Washington.

Seattle, Wash, Feb. 1.-The first
shipload Of a colony of $4,000 Swiss
has just arrived in Mason county.
Land is being assigned from an i'm
mense tract purchased by a Berne
capitalist. 1t is said that by April sew
eral shiploads will have arrived. The
colonists bring fifteen shiploads of
blooded cattle and other live stock.
The purchase of a tract of 100000
acres of land in Mason, Clallam and
Jefferson counties was completed here
a few weeks ago by the final payment
of over $1,000 900.
George M. Obradovich has been for
even years cruising" the land, work
ing secretly. His report to the Berne
syndicate covered 345 typewriter
pages, and was accompanied by scores
of bottles of water and soil together
with numerous specimens of roch and
wood. His report was so satisfactory
that he was ordered to buy all the
land for sale at any price.
The plan of the colony is similar to
the Russian settlements in California
| and the Dakotas. Land will be given
| to each married man and enough cat
| tie to stock it. He will be furnished
implements, seeds, and other supplies.
| Each year he will pay to the syndi-
/ cate a certain per cent of his crop un-
| til such time as he will have paid for
the purchase.

The Auctioneer's HouraIass.

An auctioneer of Philadelphia col
lects all sorts of objects pertaining
to his ancient calling. He has, among
other things, an interesting set of auc-
.tioneer's hourglasses.
The auctioneer, a century or so ago,
concluded a sale, not by saying Go
ing-going-gone!" and rapping the
counter with his hammer, but it was
his better method to turn up a free
running glass toward the end of the
bidding, and to end the sale irrevoca-
bly, when the sands ran out. This
saved confusion and dispute.

SHOTS FELL THREE
YOUTHFUL RANCHER, HIS AGED
WIFE AND SON FIGHT.
They End Bitter Quarrels
Family Found Badly Wounded
by Neighbors.

Belle Fourche, S. D., Feb. 1.-Mys-
terry surrounds the shooting of David
Paxton, a young rancher near Sun
dance, Wyo., his aged wife and his
stepson, following a series of bitter
quarrels. Paxton Is dying with q
bullet in his head, while Mrs. Paxton
and her o will both recover.
The affair occurred at the Paxton
ranch, eighteen miles south of Sun
dance. Paxton, who is thirty years Of
age, surprised his neighbors last sum-
mer by bringing home a bride, who Is
past sixty, and her young son, Cecil
Davis.
Soon thereafter it was noticed that
all was not harmony at the ranch, and
before long family jars became fire.
quent and p%rotracted. They finally
eliminated in the shooting that will
have an airing in the court.
Shots attracted attention to the
ranch and when neighbors arrived
they found all three members of the
family wounded and an empty gun ly-
ing on the floor.
Paxton in a sworn statement de-
clared that he had shot both Mrs.
Paxton and her son during a. dispute
and that the woman had shot him. He
then lapsed into unconsciousness,
from which it is thought he will never
recover
Mrs. Paxton and her son both de-
clare that Paxton shot them and then
turned the gun upon himself with
the statement, well, old woman, I
may as we'll go with you"
Pending Paxton's condition no ar
rests have been made, but the officers
have been working on the case. They
declare that the fact that Paxton was
right handed and the bullet struck
him on the left side of the head be-
tween the ear and point of the crown
indicates that he could not have done
the shooting.
All of the parties to the affair are
well known in that section and the
case is attracting much attention.
