Sunshine in the Home.

Many child goes astray, not be-
cause there is want of prayer or
virtue at home. but simply because
the home lacks sunshine. A child
needs smiles as well as flowers need
sunshine. Children look little be-
yond the moment;i If a thing pleases
they are apt to seek it, if it dis
pleases they are prone to avoid. If
home is the place where faces are
sour and words harsh and faultfnd-
ing is ever in the ascendant. thew
will spend as many hours as possible
elsewhere. The idea is that if the
child becomes a sunbeam it is be-
cause of self-possession and the
strength Of its own moral nature:

&c. w. Williams, the once noted
horseman, the breeder and driver of
Axtell and Allerton and the builder
and owner of the famous kite-shaped
track at independence, was here
over Sunday and delivered two adj
dresses of an evangelistic nature.
In the morning he spoke in the Con-
gregational church, which was filled
to overlooking. In tie evening he
spoke in the Gedney opera house,
which was built by him soon after
he sold Axteli. People came from
all parts of the county and from
other points, and long before the
time for services the house was fill

CAPTURE MANY WOLVES.
Unusually Large Number of Wolves
Found in Winneshiek County
This Year.

There have been several catches
of wolves in Winneshiek county this
spring. For some reason there
seems to be an unusually large
number of them. Monday Glenn
McCaffery and James Matthews of
Bluffton township brought down
seven live little cubs, which they
had captured that morning, and sold
them to parties about town, as pets.
They were captured about two and
one-half miles southwest of Burr
Oak. On Sunday Ernest Bergman
shot the mother, and on Monday
morning the two gentlemen men
toned above went out and found the
nest, capturing seven cute little fell
lows. Having no other means for
carrying them home, it is said that
Matthews took off his overalls, tied
up the legs, and took them home
in that manner
L. o. Reed, H. T. Barthell, F. w.
Boyd and Larry Keefe have been out
on several expeditions after wolves,
and have succeeded in getting one
now and then. They have been after
those in Bluffton township for two
or three weeks, but never got farth-
er than a trail. Jack Halse got up
early one morning and going down
to the river spied their tracks, and
traced them to cave west of Bluff
ton, where he found the mother had
left the little ones, ten of them,
asleep. Jack quickly corralled them
and got out with them just as the
men from DEBORAH arrived on the
scene.
A few days ago Charles Ernst of
Lincoln township brought in seven
wolf cubs for bounty, which he had
captured northeast of Ridgeway,
like those above, capturing them
when they were still very young.
one day last week Charles Moran
came up from his home few miles
east of DEBORAH with seven wolf
cubs, which he had captured near
there, and claimed the bounty of
$14.OO.
There seems to be an unusually
large number of wolves about
Blufton. Monday evening big
wolf was seen prowling around the
village, probably after some sheep
that were in the neighborhood.
Yesterday party of Decorahians
spent the afternoon trying to get to
a den of wolves in a hole in the hill |
near the Jacob Haas place Wolves
were there all right, but they got
into crevice in the rock, and al
though they dug for them all the
afternoon, still they could not get
them, A party has gone out today
also in another direction u after
wolves.

Fooled the Foxy Farmer.

A farmer kept a bad mudhole in
front of his farm and charged to
pull autos out. When farmer got
in the mud with his auto the owner
of the mudhole came down with a
team and chain to extract him, but
the farmer auto owner was onto the
game and ne gave him a cussing
and told him he would stay there
all summer before he would pay
him penny. The farmer with the
team left him in the mud hole. but
the farmer with the auto actually
got out of it with the power of his
machine after an hours hard work.
