Everyone sympathizes with MIR
and Mrs R w Fulton in the loss Of
their little daughter, one of the twin
girls that came to brighten the home
only a few short weeks ago. The
little one died Sunday and was laid
to rest at the Williamsburg cemetery
Monday morning at 10 o'clock, Rev
E E Erwin officiating. To add to the
parents affliction the other little girl
is critically i'll and scarcely expected
to live.
Don't miss our next issue, which
will contain the story of the bom-
bardment of Fort Sumter and the
events leading up to the act that
precipitated a mighty four years
struggle, one of the bloodiest wars of
modern history. The story will be
illustrated with pictures of Fort
Sumter and all the star performers
in the grim drama of a half century
ago. If you are not already a SUBJ
scriber, send us your name. You
can't afford to miss this story.
Miss Madge McCants entertained
quite a number of her youthful
friends and playmates at her birth
day party Saturday afternoon from
q to 6 o'clock. The little hostess gave
her many friends and playmates
cordial welcome at her hospitable
home on South Academy street and
the occasion was much enjoyed by
all the participants. An Easter egg
hunt was productive of much fun
and treasure trove" to the eager
young seekers after the hidden
prizes.
Another magnanimous Salters
gentleman responded to our appeal
last week by advancing his subscrip-
ton to 1914. Those men of Salters
are the salt of the earth and the Ia
dies--well, the only way to describe
them is to say they are the sugar
of the earth" We are proud OF
these two responses from Salters. for,
while we expect to give our friends
full value for their money, it would
tighten our load very materially If a
hundred or so subscribers would pay
as much ahead as the gentlemen at
Salters have done.

Squire" Fishburne is rapidly
qualifying as formidable compet-

For two Sundays consecutively MIR
Fishburne has exercised his notarlal

pies of dusky hue, in each instance

one"
Saturday night our heart was made
glad and the Sunday dinner assured
by the gift of a pair of fish of liberal
size. The gentleman who presented
them is one of natures noblemen,"
but entirely too modest to have us
print his name. We are none the
less grateful, however, because he
prefers doing good by stealth and we
won't embarrass him by telling on
him.

DEVILS LAKE HAS
RISEN Two FEET
FEAR THAT DEVILS LAKE WOULD

Devils Lake, N. D., June 2s.=-Capt.
John Ford of the launch Minnekota,
says that according to his gauge at
the lake shore the lake has risen dur
ing the past year, eighteen inches
that there is one foot and half more
water in the lake now than there was
q year at this time. There is two
feet more water now than there was
when the lake froze up last fall. There
Is quite a stream of water leaking into
the lake from Creers bay which was
well soaked by the heavy rains this
spring, and there is considerable COM
ing through the Churchs Ferry and
other coulees.
1t is believed that with the ordinary
amount of rainfall the lake will be able
to hold its own from now on. Accord
ing to the best information ohtainable,
up to two years ago the lake had re-
NAMED stationary for ten years. The
long continued dry spell last year and
the year before lowered the lake from
two to three feet, and it was thought
the lake would disappear entirely In
few years. But the rains this spring
show that the lake remains just about
the same. rising and falling with the
