The yellow fever has broken out
in Nicaragua, and the prospects Of an
invasion of Mexico by the plague are
fine. The southern part of the United
States is believed to be exempt, how.
ever, owing to the strenuous meas

town authorities for sanitary improve
ments since last siege from the pes

the yellow fever's hold can be moth
ing more than very slight, and for
this reason the South has little to

Has it ever struck one what num- Der of terms belonging to cuisine are applied to man under different circum- stances? Sometimes he is "basted." he "boils with rage," is ''baked" with heat and '.burns" with love or jeal- ousy. He is often "cut up," 'deveur ed" with a flame and "done brown We dress his jacket for him. Some. times he is "eaten up" with care, and occasionally he is "fried." We cook his goose" for him, and often he makes goose" of himself. We make a "hash" of him. and sometimes hc makes a hash of something else. He gets into "hot water" and sometime. into "mess." is made into "mince meat" and is often in "pickle." We are ofteu asked to "toast" him, and h Is frequently put into "stew'' or is in a stew" no one knows why. 4 "soft" is "half baked" and one severe ly handled is well "peppered." , cheeky young imp is a "sauce box, and a rich father is made to fork out.-Dundee Advertiser.

kENhaARlTES WANT WARD COUNTY
TO TRADE RENvILLE SEVEN
TOWNSHIPS IN GOOSENECk
FOR SIX TOWNSHIPS IN
VICINITY OF GLENBURN.

l.. F. Clausen, a prominent Ken
mare attorney was in M1not Saturday
and while here informed the Inde-
pendent that many in Kenmare wero
considering the feasibility OF, cutting
the seven townships OF the famous
"Gooseneck' Oft from Ward county
and annexing that territory to Ron
Vile county, in exchange for the SIX
townships in the Glenburn country,
which might be added to Ward
county.
Mr.. CRusen said that such an ar
rangement would suit tho people Of
Kenmare much better than to live in
the Gooseneck" and he thot that
Ward county would profit by tho ex-
change.
To make this arrangement effective
it would first be necessary to secure
petitions from the voters living in the
townships to be effected, asking that
the proposition be submitted by bal
lot at tho next general election. What
he was afraid OF was that one propo-
sition might carry and the other not.
Prominent Kenmare attorneys are now
looking up the law to see If it would
be possible to submit both PROPOSE
tions by one vote. .yt ,s:.g.-.
Mr.. Clausen said that he realized
that Kenmare had only herself to
blame for this state Of affairs, but the
people there were willing to do most
anything to become annexed to Rem
Vile county. He stated further that
Kemmare did not hope to become the
county seat Of Renville county in case
: these propositions carried.
