COUNTS WHITE ELEPHANT.
Has Silo But Doesn't Know What to
Do With Ii.

Like the man who bought an auto
when he couldn't furnish gasoline, the
county commissioners have purchased
a fine silo for the poor farm thinking
apparently that ensilage grows in those
tin towers.
They were brought to a realization
of their mistake today when c. c. Wit
! wer, an agent for cutting machine,
appeared before them with most i'm
pressive speech.
Eyes, gentlemen" he said, ct hear
you have bought a silo. A silo is a
very fine thing. l know from personal
experience that silo saves a lot of
money. Bpt the great thing about a
silo is to get it filled. Now I'm here
to sell you a machine which will cut
up whole bundles at time. 1t is No.
II. Look. 1t costs but s225. I'm

blow. "Ohi We paid just $500 for that
siloi What was that you said about
a cutter?"
But 1 have system here for saw
ing you money" continued the agent.
You see some of the neighbors out
there want you men to go in on a
fourth share in machine. And then,
besides, that will insure you of help in
the cutting. You see it takes 16 men
and eight teams to run one of those
things and it is hard to find them. But
this will fix that. You see if you go
at it alone that will cost you SIS a day
and
Whats that? Did you say some
thing about SIS a day." gasped Chair
man Simms. whose regular occupation
is running a laundry. What is going
to furnish the power to run that ma
chine that chops up everything in sight
at SIS a day? Anyhow there is no
law whereby we can go into farmers

trading work. But what's going to
run this thing?" .-.. e1a

investment the county has ever made
as money saver. 1 sell 'em, too. And
l want to tell you that it's the best
thing to save money you ever saw
even if L didn't sell it to YOU" And
the enthusiastic agent beat it out the
door and slid out the rear way ahead
of the officer of the law.
The county has a few milk cows out
on the poor farm and as a matter of
course fell for the first agents money

the case will doubtless attract more
than ordinary interest.
The history of the crime in brief is
as follows: On the evening of Marcn
70, the bodies of LindahI and his two
children were found, the former under

feet IF wate~ in the Republican river
and the latter in motor boat a short
distance from their father. 1t mad been
the custom of Lindahl. the murdered
man. to use his boat in looking after
his fish traps and as he and Nordmark
the accused, had previously had re-
peated quarrels, suspicion at once fell
upon the latter as having committed
the crime. After a coroner's inquest
lasting two days. he was charged with
the crime and lodged in the county Jail
to await trial at the May term of court
He was brought before Justice S. A.
1nghar of this city a week or more
later for his preliminary hearing which
he waived. preferring to wait until now
to be tried. If the officers succeed in
conV1cting the prisoner it will be large

..THE TRUCE OF GOD"
Poet Iaureate's Tribute to the Depart
ed Monarch.

London. May 9.-Alfred Austin, poet
laureate. has written the following on
the occasion of the kings death, en-
titled "The Truce of Cod with the
subtitle. "A Kings Bequest:''
What darkness deep as wintry gloom
O'ershadows joyous spring?
In vain the vernal orchards bloom,
Vainly the woodlands sing.
Round royal shroud
A mournful crowd
Is all now left of one but yesterday a
king.
Thrones have there been of hateful
fame,
Reared upon wanton war.
He we have lost still linked his name
With peace at home. afar.
For peace he wrought.
His constant thought
Being how to shield his realm against
strife's baleful star.
So let us now all seek to rest
From fateful feuds release,
And mindful of his wise beQuest,
From factious clamors cease;
Treading the path he trOd,
The sacred truths of God,
The path that points and leads to
patriotic peace.

GOES ON TO BERLIN.
Colonel Roosevelt Leaves Stockholm
for the German Capital.

Stockholm, May 9.-Co1. Roosevelt
left for Berlin on a special train at II
o'clock this morning. He was feeling
well and in a joking mood and consid-
cred himself altogether equal to the visit
in Germany
During the night the former presi-
dent had a little fever and today his
voice was husky, giving evidence of a
slight attack of bronchitis.
Col Roosevelt shortened his program
Sunday even more than it had already
Eeen abbreviated by King Edward s
death, because of the hoarseness from
which he suffered due to an infiamma-
ton of the bronchial tubes. A throat
specialist visited the palace twice and
recommended that Col. Roosevelt stay
indoors as the weather was blustry and
rainy.
Col. Roosevelt left his apartments
only once. He took lunch with Chas.
H. Graves, the American minister at
the legation, there met Sven Hedin. the
explorer, and other scientific and liter
airy people.
He intended to make a speech at the
National Museum before the students
and the massed singing societies, but
he gave this up and instead bowed from
the balcony of the legation to the stud
ents and singers who gathered in the
street below and sang selections. The
congs and THE Star SpangIed Banner
and at the conclusion of the singing
Col. Roosevelt expressed his thanks. The
crowds on both sides of the water front
facing the legation were estimated at
between 10000 and 10000, the greatest
crowd, Minister Graves said, he ever
had seen in Stockholm. The roofs of
the houses and the shipping in the har-
Dor were crowded and a mighty shout
went up when he appeared
Later he received in the legation the
Swedish members of the interparlia-
mentary union. Senator Beckman, ad-
dressing Mr.. Roosevelt referred to his
services to the cause of peace and the
former president replied briefly. Prof
Gunnar Anderson presented to him the
first copy, just from the press, of the
Norwegian geological survey, which had
been specially bound. Arrangement had
been made for Mr.. Roosevelt to go to
the RiddaTholmen to place a wreath on
King Oscars tomb, but he sent Kermit
in his place.
The crown prince spent some time in
the coloneiS room in the forenoon and
bad tea with him in the afternoon, at

the original date arranged, which was
the 18th. 1t is hoped at oxford uni
Vers1ty' that an arrangement can be
made for postponement of the lecture
until after the obsequies. If Mr.. Roose-
Welt is in London on the day of the
funeral he will be expected to attend,
but the question has already risen as
to what his status would be upon that
occasion. He could hardly be treated
as private individual and the public
would certainly expect that he be given
q place among the notables. The press
repeats the suggestion that the Amer
lean government appoint Mr.. Roose-
Welt its special representative at the

steadiness of continental horses on

political differences have been sunk
