DUNN COUNTY.
The Stalwart and Progressive forces
appear to be about even in Dunn county,
with Gronna in lead by possibly 100
votes. Hanna is close second and
Blaisdell second for congressional
honors. P. D. Norton seems to have a
lead of about 100 for secretary of state
The representatives selected were M. S.
Cuskelly. Whltmer and Doerner. Editor
Young gets nominations for county
judge. Nelson for states attorney.
McCurdy for treasurer and John Bangs
had no opposition for denomination of
sheriff. Frank Partridge is nominee for
Register of deeds, d.. Bailey for auditor.

small vote and will be all right for the

The Democrats of Stark county are safe
on the number required for nomination.

probable that the full count will show
100. As far as known the figures are

Now that the nominations are made,
everybody should turn in and support

this so, we should have learned from
such wandering beings the secrets of
their own state. BY wise provision,
the soul can return only for some spe.

her babe; the wife, to prove her con.
tinued existence to her husband; the
the miser, to reveal some hidden
hoard. The soul that returns is re.

that the beating Of ones heart or the

The doctor came TO full halt once

ted my ignorance he burst into peals
of mighty laughter. He hurried me>
along breathlessly. And yet knew
in my heart that his happiness was
not for the solution which he had
found, but for the sake Of Celaye. We
reached the apartment at last. and the
astonished elevator boy, more sleepy
than ever, took us up and deposited
us at Ce!aye's door. We rang six
times before Celaye came out, wild
eyed and haggard. He stared at US.
not in anger, but amazement.

fingers playfully IN the mans face.

instrument. He drew the bow across
the strings.
And again that rush of thunderous
discords broke from the cello. Ia
squeaked and groaned, and the bow
ratified and scraped and whined. Ce-
layes eyes opened almost as wide
as mine; he dropped the bow and
sprang from his chair as though there
were a nail in It.

though his eyes twinkled, ghosts

that. How in thunder do you expect
the grandest living player to bring
forth music when you forget to tune

You've left them for months, sir, and
expect them to prove serviceable.
