Base Ball Language.

At this season the baseball re-

ingenious word painters and meta

to use form of speech which is
quite beyond those who are not

tongue which has so far eluded the
photographers. 1t must hopelessly

DRAG THE ROADS TO-DAY.
State Law Requires Township
Trustees to See That Roads
Are Dragged After Rains.


Every township trustee who does
not see to the proper dragging of
the roads in his district after this
bounteous rain will disobey the
law of the state and neglect to full
fill the duty of his office. The state
law plainly states that township
trustees shall provide for the prop
err dragging of the roads after
rains. There has been SO little rain
this summer that roads have scar
cely been dragged at all. The re-
suit is that they are badly worn
down in places, full of chuck-hOles,
and in just the condition which
needs dragging. The proper use OF
drags at this time will top up and
smooth off the roads and give us
good roads throughout the remand
er of the year. Mr.. Township
Trustee, don't neglect this, see that
it is done at once.

Death of Old Resident.

One of the we'll known residents
of DEBORAH township, Miss Aase
Haugen, passed away on Saturday
morning, at her home south of De-
corah, after a long illness from
rheumatism. She was born in Egg
gedal, Norway, April s, 1871, the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Bjorn
Haugen, and has been living on
her farm south of town for a good
many years. She was a splendid
manager and became very well-to-
do, and has made many substan-
tial gifts in different ways during
her lifetime, one of them being the
splendid pipe organ of the United
Lutheran church.
1t is reported that in her will she
has provided that her valuable farm
of 240 acres is to be given to the
United Lutheran church, with the
understanding that the proceeds
shall be devoted to the erection and
maintenance of an old ladies'
home. We have not been able to
ascertain the details of this NUM-
ficent gift, however.
There are but few immediate
relatives, the nearest being her
cousins, Peter E. Haugen of this
city and Gulbrand Haugen, living
south of the city. The funeral SER
vices were held yesterday; at 1:0(

cemetery five miles south of tn,

Leaders i'm Public Matters.

Some people have little apprecia-
ton of the value of we'll conducted
local newspapers. Their offices of
benificence to the community are
so common that they are unnoted,
but none the less no town or city
can advance without it's newspapers
are in the forefront of its advance
ment. They are the life of the
community. They must lead in
every effort to invite capital, en-
large industries and enthuse the
people in the use of their advan.
tages.

Shnnlifters i'm Decorah.

For several weeks past shoplift-
ers have been busy in DEBORAH, pill
fering goods of various kinds from
different stores. A number of the
merchants have lost articles, and
in one or two instances persons
have been almost caught in the act
of trying to get away with articles.
The losses of the various stores
have amounted to considerable, and
a careful watch is being kept to
catch the offenders. If they are
apprehended it will probably &c
hard with them, as the merchants
are determined to put a stop to this
practice. ~
