A Fish Story

Tuesday morning F. A. Bauske put
out some fish in front of his cash pro-
duce house. Well, there is nothing to
that! Yes! there is. Looking up from
u writing and across the street we
saw a nice old family dog come along
look very carefully in all directions to
see that no one was looking and then
raise up and purloin a fish. We, of
course, thought that was all, but it
was not she made several trips and
each time got a fish. The old dog
knew that she was stealing just as well
as we did. But, alas, some n phoned
Bauske and he came out and caught
her across the back with the brush end
of a broom just as she was making her
escape with another fish. He did not
hurt the dog much but he frightened a
year off her life.

For Parts

A week ago last Friday A. 7. Cooper
received word that j. R. Wander Nicer,
who had been in charge of the lumber
yards and hardware store belonging to
the Williams Lumber company at
Ordway, had not opened his place of
business. Manager P. j. Roth was at
once dispatched to Ordway to look
after matters. He found that the
man had gone, had left a letter to
Cooper saying that booze had got
the better of him and he was $50 short
and did not want to face it. He left
to square the shortage three horses,
about $50 worth of furniture and two
notes of $25 each against responsible
parties there. Mr.. Roth took a new
invoice of the stock-one having been
taken January 1st- and could find no
shortage only the cash shortage which
was admitted by "Slim" in his letter
to Mr.. Cooper.

Seven and Qne Hal

That is what our police justices are
now assessing the above fine against
each and every plain drunk brought
before them. The o~bstinancy of John
Hustad on last Saturday got him before
Justice o. T. Strandness and he drew
the above amount about 10 o'clock Sat-
urday night. Chief of Police Garrick
saw him early in the afternoon and
told him he was getting intoxicated
and had better quit and get off the
street. About four o'clock a young
mar got him up as far as Frank Mohs
store and we watched him break away
and the young fellow made two or
trials then became Disguised and quit.
John then drifted down the street with
a swaying step from one side of the
walk to the other, turned the corner
at Twins Pharmacy and in about five
minutes we saw him coming back in
the clutches of the chief of police who
let him sleep off his jag in the Jail and
then took him before Justice Strand
ness with the above result. John will
listen to caution next time.

Larson i'm League Ball

A letter from Ross E. Parks, who is
spending the winter on his farm near
Nerstrand, Mimi, brings the infor-
nation that the Cantillions, the base
ball magnates, will this year try out
Laurance Larson, or Lily. Mr.. Parks
is so firmly convinced that Larson will
make good that he has guaranteed his
expenses if he does not. Ross says:
He will make good / am ure for he
is one of the smoothest fe lders in the
northwest, and he can play any posi-
ton but behind the bat, n does quite
a good stunt at that. Old Mike will
make a pail of money out of him, and
it will be a good thing for the boy"
Speaking of the weather Ross said:
"Say, but this has been the coolest
winter ! ever saw, raw, damp, cold;
not like our Dakota weather"
Ross speaking of himself says: 81
have been laid up with the rheumatism
this week, but am about o. X. again
now"

For Selling to a Minor

Wednesday afternoon Chief of Police
James c. Garrick went before States
Attorney Anderson and filed infor-
nation that w. E. Smith and Peter
Monson had sold liquor to n julius
Smedstad, a minor without written
consent of his parents. The states
attorney issued a complaint and Justice
Harris on presentation of same gave
the chief of police warrants for the
two men named. They were brought
into court and both denied guilt and
demanded a hearing. The justice set
Saturday at ! p. M, as the time for
hearing the Monson case; and Satur-
day at A p. M, for hearing the Smith
case. Both Messrs. Monson and Smith
claim that the boy got nothing from
them but the way he got intoxicated
was the fact that others bought bottles
and took them out and probably he
''got in" on them.

Pleasant Evening in Racine

The ~neighbors in school district, No.

debating and literary society which
holds its meetings in the school house
every or everylother, Friday evening.
These meetings have developed some
very good speakers and thinkers. The
way in which the children who are
invited to take part, have learned to
compose themselves and give recita-
tons before an audience is remark able
and will prove of great benefit to them
later in life.
Last Friday evening they invited
Floyd Yeager. of the First National
Bank, of this city, to give a "Chalk
Talk" which proved the feature of the
evening-the work of an expert.
Rev. Crisp, of the M. E. church of
this city, gave a mastery Grafton on
character building entitled; "Wisdom's
Jeweled Ring"
On Friday evening there will again
be a debate by a team chosen to DELHI
crate and discuss a popular but weighty
question. Entertaining declarations
and pleasing music have places on the
program SO as to alternate with the
heavier numbers.
Any who avail themselves of the
opportunity to attend one of these
meetings will be cordially welcomed as
well as entertained.
