OBITUARY..
JOLLY.

At her home in Vernon Springs Twp,
Thursday, Nov. 10, 1910, tMrs. Elisha
Ann Jolly, aged 81 years 8 months and
10 days.
Deceased was born in Oblon county,
Tenn, Feb. %, 1873, living there till
womanhood, where she united with the
M. E. church at the early age of six
teen and had lived an earnest christian
lite since. She was married to Abram
T. Jolly Dec. Is, 1889, and was the
mother of eleven children, eight of
whom are still living. five sons and
three daughters; also a brother in
Texas, and a sister, Mrs. J. A. john
son, of Arkansas who was present at
the funeral.
Services were conducted by Rev.
Gammons of Lresco at the Vernon
Springs school house, after which the
remains were taken to the New Ore
gon cemetery for burial followed by q
large crowd of Borrowing friends and
relatives.
The circumstances attending the
death of Mrs. Jolly are very sad. The
family is well connected and highly ap-
preciated in the state from which they
came. Mr.. Jolly held the office of
treasurer of Stoddard county, Mo-,
from 1904 to 1908, later moving to St.
Louis. Business reverses and illness
were dis astrous to their finances and
last spring, wishing to get into the
country with the family, they came to
Howard county to spend the summe'
ana take care of a large acreage of
sugar beets near Bonair, hoping by the
combined efforts of the family to en-
able them to return to the south and
get new start. The family is evil
IDENTIFY educated, industrious and de-
serving of the aid and sympathy of
their new found friends in the north
who have SO generously assisted them
| in their time of sorrow.
Raj my pillow husband dearest
| Faint and fainter grows my bfeath'
And these shadows stealing slowly
Must know be those of death,
Sit down close beside me darling,
Let me clasp your strong warm hand;
Yours that has ever sustained me
TO the border OF the land.
For your God and mine-our Father
Thence shall lead us on,
Where upon a throne eternal
Sits the Lord and only son.
I've had visions and been dreaming,
Ger the past ofjoy and pain;
Year by year I've wandered backward
TIL was a child again.
Dreams of girlhood, and the moment
When stood your wife and bride
How my heart filled with loves triumph
In the hour of woman pride.
Dreams of thee and all earth cords
Firmly twined about my heart,
Oh! the bitter, bur ming anguish,
t When first knew we must part.

1t has passed and God has promised

1t has passed and God has promised
All my footsteps to attend;
He that's more than friend and brother,
He'll be with you to the end.
There's no shadow DER the portal
Lead ing to my Heavenly home:
Christ has promised life immortal
And It's He that bids me come.
When lfes trials wait around thee
And its chilling pillows SWELL
Thou'lt thank God that I'm spared then
Thou'lt feel that "all Is we'll"
Bring our children unto my bedside;
My last blessing let them keep,
But they're sleeping do not wake them,
They learn soon enough to weep.
Tell them often OF their mother,
Kiss them for me when they wake;
Lead them gently in life's pathway,
Love them doubly for my sake.
Clasp highlands still closer, darling.
This the last morn of my life;
For tomorrow shall never
Answer when you call me "wife."
Farewell my noble husband,
Faint not meath the chast'ning rod,
Throw your strong arms round our child
Keep them close to thee-and God. (ren

osAkIs is DECLARED "oRY."
Court Holds Majority Of Votes Neces.
sary to Make It "Wet."

St. Paul, Nov. 12.-Holding that a
majority of all the votes cast at an
election is necessary to declare a viii
lage wet" the supreme court has re-
fused to allow the council of Osakis,
MIMI, to grant a liquor license. The
case grew out OF spirited election
on the license question held at Osahs
last March. OF the 260 votes cast at
the election, 1870 were against license
and 120 fAyoring it.
Ten missing votes were cast for
other offices, but not on the license
question. William A. Peacock, sa.
loonkeeper who was refused license
on the ground that the question did
not carry at the election, brought suit
in the district court of Douglas coun
ty to require the council to issue a
license. The attorney general handled
the case for the state. The district
court decided in favor of the saloon
keeper and an appeal was taken t
the supreme court.

First Use Of Iron.

As result Of his interesting investi-
cations, DR.. Ridgeway concludes that
the smelling of iron originated in
central Europe. and especially In the
region known as Noricum. equivalent
to modern Austria and Bavaria.
In Egypt 1t can be traced back to the
ninth century B. c.. and In Libya to
about $50 B. c. First mention Of Its
use In China goes back to 400 B. c..
while in Uganda it is said to have
been in use only some Eve or six
centuries.
The above date for the first use Of
iron In Egypt refers to the metal OBJ
tanned by smelling. The use Of ma
tive iron in the form of meteorites
dates back to remote antiquity. The
weapons made from these were OBJ
tanned, like flint implements. by chip
ping. And it is interesting to remem-
Der that recent investigations have
shown that the iron Of many meteor
ties Is sort Of natural steel.

II the Ellsworth board of trade has
justified its existence in no other
way, it certainly has in bringing about
the farmers institute = the potato
meeting, as it may be called - which
was held it Ellsworth last March. It
Is safe to say that direct result Of
that meeting was the increase in the
potato acreage of Hancock county
from two to three fold, and the in
crease in 1910 is likely to be still more
marked. At its annual meeting last
Monday evening special committee
was appointed to arrange for another
meeting in March at which orchard
ing shall be the main topic. The
board expects the cooperation of
the State board of agriculture, and
hopes to secure State Entomologist
Il. F. Hitchings for the principal
speaker.

In the coming congressional cam
paign the democrats propose to make
a big set for votes in the East, where
they hope to make the gains which
will win them majority in the next
House. or course they have little
hope Of winning any seats in either
Maine or Vermont, the two states
which hold September elections, but
they want to cut down republican
mGorities for congressman in those
two states. 1t is the same old story
OF elections for the last generation.
II the democrats can get any en-
enlargement from small republican
majorities in Maine and Vermont,
they whoop 1t up vigorously for the
reuaining two months Of September
and October in the rest Of the coun-
try, and try to convince the doubters
Chat the democrats are sure to win.

The term OF Leroy T. Carlton, OF
Winthrop, as chairman OF the COM
znissioners Of inland fisheries and
game, will expire next June. Mr..
Carleton's twelve years. service as
chairman of the commission has
given him a grasp on the fish and
game situation and knowledge OF
of varying conditions as they exist in
different parts of the State, which
make him valuable and efficient
servant. During his administration
and largely under his personal direc-
tion, the game laws of the State have
been greatly improved, and as effec-
lively enforced as the appropriation
available will permit. Under the
established policy of the State to re-
tain in office men of proven efficiency,
his reappointment seems logical.

leading by plurality of about 1,4O0.
Hubbard was third with pitiful 100

Supervisors Ct Census Invites More
Applications.
A call for more applicants for places as
census enumerators has been issued by Su-
pervisor Of Census Elmer r. Spofford, OF
Deer Isle. He urges all persons in his dis
trict desiring to serve to obtain their APP
plication forms ct once and to file them
with him before January Is, when he must
stop considering new applications in order
to prepare for the s.t4st" Of the previous
applicants on February5.
After this he will examine and rate the
papers until about FEBRUARY %, when he
will forward his list Of designations a
enumerators, with their s'test" papers to
Census Director Durand, who will care
fully 60 over and rerate the papers OF the
successful candidates before giving his
consent to the issue OF commissions to
them by the supervisor. BY the middle
or latter part Of March all the enumera-
tors will have been commissioned and in
receipt Of detailed instructions concern
ing their work.
To quiet any qualms relative to the
''test" Of the qualifications of applicants,
to be made February 8, the supervisor has
obtained some information from the con-
sus director concerning the s'test" OF
twelfth census enumerators. II has been
officially stated that the 1910 'stest" will
b very similar to the one in the preced-
ing census, and will consist in requiring
applicants to Ill sample schedules from
printed narratives concerning census facts.
Al the rural enumerators are to carry both
the population and agricultural schedule,
they will b sstestsd" with samples Of
both, but the city enumerators, who csvry
the population schedule alone, will only
be required to prove their ability BY NIL
ing sample Of that schedule.
Il seems comparatively simple, socord-
ing to the supervisor, to draw out Of the
statement which will be submitted the rs-
quired details for the population schedule
and to enter them under the proper col
umn divisiona relating to location, name,
relationship. personal description. nativi-
~, citisenship. occupation, education,
etc.
About AL such sstest" can do il to evil
dence the sgibility Of an applicants hand.
to write in the sample schedule the fact,
clearly stated in the narrative.
The agricultural schedule narrative for
l00o was very similar, except that the facts
stated relate to farms and farming opera
tions.
Before the 'stest" February s, the su-
pefvisor will send each appiicant Iist 3,
instruction concerning filling in the sstest,
schedules, which will still further aim
pity the subj sct and insure the passing 81
the test BY those who possess only an or
binary common-school education and
practical common sense.
