Death of Patrick Spain.

Patrick Spain died at his home here
in Morris on August 26th, after an ill
ness of less than two days. He was
at the time of his decease seventy
FIVE years of age. He was born in
Galway, Ireland and came to this
country when small boy and lived
in the eastern and southern states un-
til 1860, when he came to St. Paul.
On January 5, 1854, he enlisted as
private in Company G, Second Regi-
ment, Minnesota Volunteer Cavalry.
His company constituted part of the
expedition of soldiers sent to meet
the great force of hostile Indians that
had taken to war path and were doing
immense damage in the whole north
west. The warning tribes gave battle
on many occasions, but were driven
across the Dakota Bad Lands and into
the Yellowstone country. Mr.. Spain
was one of the first white men known
to see the wonders of the Yellow
stone years before it was set apart as
National Park. Having been severe
ly injured by horse falling upon him
he was honorably discharged from
service June %, 1865.
He was married in 1866 to Ann
Sheridan and lived in St. Paul until he
settled on a farm in Horton in this
county in 1879. He was successful in
his farming, but found it difficult on
account of his advancing years to fur
ther carry on the work and sold out
and moved into town in 1900.
The funeral was held last Sunday
from the Catholic church, the remains
being inferred in Calvary cemetery.
He is survived by his widow, son
William Spain and daughter, Mrs. A.
E. Hawkinson, and step daughter
Mrs. s. A. Flaherty.
Out of town friends who attended
the funeral were DR.. and Mrs. A. E.
Hawkinson, of Litchfeld, William
Spain, of Minneapolis, Mrs. William

Hunting Season.

There seems to be some doubt in
the minds of some people as to the
date of the opening of the ''game
season" in this State. For the infor-
nation of such, we quote from Chap
ter 282 of the 1909 General Laws, as
follows:
1st. "Any turtle dove, snipe, prairie
chicken, pinnated, white breasted or
sharp tailed grouse, woodcock, up
land plover and golden plover may be
killed and had in possession between
the 9TH day of September and the 7th
day of November following.
End. Any quail, partridge, ruffed
grouse or pheasant, other than Mon
golian, Chinese, ring-neck or English
pheasant, may be killed or had in
possession between the 1st day of
October and the 1st day of December
following.
3rd. Wild duck of any variety,
wild goose of any variety, braut, or
any variety of aquatic fowl whatever,
may be killed and had in possession
between the 7th day of September
and the first day of December follow
ing.
The law further provides that no
person shall in any one day take or
kill mere than fifteen (15) birds.

Special Loans.

AS the presence of a travelling Ii
brary in community is often the
incentive for the formation of study
club, the Morris Public Library will
make special loan collections to such
clubs. These special loans contain
enough books to cover the subject
studied. Pictures, pamphlets, and
folios are added when needed to com
plete the collection.
The library also offers special pri-
vileges to county teachers. Small
collections are loaned them upon ap-
plication. These may be kept for a
period of one month with the pri-
vilege of renewal. There is no fee
for the use of these books.
The library will also furnish to de-
batting societies requesting aid, all the
help possible in the way of books and
magazine articles upon the subject
under discussion.
Address all communications to the
secretary of the Public Library Broad,

of day. A place of quiet and the
shade of palms, of irrigation and the
soothing balms that no reformer till
the poles embrace shall ever capture
for a bathing place.
The hosts of labor will parade the
street, which will remind us of happy
feat in arbitration from the olden
days when julius Caesar was sort of
craze. 1t is related of that ancient
time that sweet September in the Ro-
man cline was hot as blazes, and the
union file could only march about a
half mile,
1t wasn't anything at all, they say,
to watch the mighty pageant get
away, the music playing and the flags
displayed, and see it suddenly duck
for the shade. The gasping drummer
with his sounding drum, the bronzed
mechanics who perhaps had come a
dozen squares, and in the fration
rout, age and apprentice with its
tongue stuck out.
The faint impression the procession
made on Roman capital for long dis
mayed the union leaders, when the
serried ranks at times not even passed
the Roman banks. And so it was when
mighty Caesar came, and having
found the populace aflame, he showed
September from the seventh place
along to ninth, which has remained
the case. He merely interchanged it
with July, but when he asked them
how was that for high, they fairly in
undated him with smiles, aud have
since been doing about twenty miles.
The autumn equinox will come
around,
And Roosevelt, by that time east
ward bound,
Will aid it in the making of such
storms
AS they may find necessary to few
reforms.
And then the sun will turn still softer
yet,
And the bold October, having duly
set
His planes, and carefully put on his
brake,
Will see what sort of landing he. can
make.

meets every Tuesday evening and
is always pleasant place to be.
The meetings are well attended. Last
Tuesday evening was little extra
as after the Lodge adjourned re-
freshments were served, several
games were played and each person
present was expected to bring a
package to swap. These were all
placed together and each picked
out package which was opened
then and there. Did anyone get
cheated? No, even though there
was a difference in value all re-
ceived more than enough pleasure
to pay any loss they may have sus-
tanned in the swap.
There is no more enthusiastic
lodge to be found any where than
is the Monroe RebekahS.

HOW TO GIVE A SOAP BUBBLE
PARTY.
A New Way to Make Bubbles That
Measure Nine Feet Across.

A soap bubble party is the very
best kind of entertainment for boys
and girls, says The Designer for
March.
Don't use clay. pipes or pipes of
any sort, for a pipe-especially a
clay one is the worst method of
blowing bubbles ever invented.
Instead, use a cornuco5,a one
made of paper will serve admira-
bly,. This is much easier to blow,
and will enable you to produce bub-
bles of such gigantic size that you
will wonder how you ever could
have been satisfied with the puny
little spheres of the Old clay-yire
variety.
To make the solution, half fill a
quart bottle with soft or distilled
water, and slowly sift into it four
tifthS Of an ounce of pure CASTLE
soap powder. After the powder
has all dissolved, pour in one-third
of a pint of pure glycerin. Mix
thoroughly and allow 10 stand I'M
til every tiny bubble his disap-
peared.
Bubbles have been made from
this solution which measured nine
feet in circumference, and this
same mixture has produced bub-
bleS which lasted from five to thir-
teen minutes.
Cornucopias can be made of stiff
wrapping-paper, or lighter paper if
desired. A very convenient size
for just simple bubble blowing is
one that measures ten inches in
length, two inches across larger
opening, and slightly less than a
quarter of an inch across smaller
opening
Larger cornucopias than this
will be needed for the rose" and
top" tricks, but under no clrcum-
stances make the smaller ends Of
these more than a quarter of an
inch in diameter.
Carefully pour the solution into a
plate until the bottom is covered
to the depth of one-eighth of an
inch. Then wet we'll with your
finger the rim of the plate with the
same mixture.
Now set a rose in the center of
the plate and lower over the flower
a cOrnucOpia or tin funnel. Then
begin to blow very gently through
the funnel, at the same time slowly
lifting it. Continue blowing as you
raise the funnel higher and higher
until you have made a fine, large
film. Then, while still blowing,
slowly turn the funnel at a right
angle, and release it from the film
with a quick upward movement.
This is gloriously beautiful
t,;ol-
