advisement. He gave no indication
when he might make his ruling, but he
comes to this city tonight, and the rul-
ing may be made before he leaves here.
Question Of Jurisdiction.
The question Judge Nichols has to
decide is whether or not the local court
has jurisdiction over Mrs. Brown, as
Administrative, of sufficient extent to
prohibit her from continuing the case
in the Mankato case. She was appoint
ed administrative by the court of this
district. Because she was appointed by
this court, the railroad company
argued in urging the issuance of an or
der restraining Mrs. Brown, that the
court had authority to control her in
sofar as the case against the North
western was concerned.
Novel Question Involved.
The legal question involved is by no
means a common one, at least not in
this district. If Judge Nichols should
hold that Mrs. Brown be restrained
from prosecuting the case In Minneso-
ia, the effect of such ruling, insofar
as 1t affects Mrs. Brown and her case,
will be that the local court will have
exercised q jurisdiction over the Man.
kato court.
The railroad company, in presenting
it's application, made the argument
that the case was brought in Minne-
sofa, so far from the scene of the
tragedy, for the sole purpose of harass-
ing the railroad company and make 1t
difficult for the company to defend the
action.
1t was further alleged that the adj
ministratrix, if she has any cause for
action, is free to bring her case in the
local court.
The attorney for Mrs. Brown took
the ground that his client was free, and
was within her rights under the law, to
bring the action for damages in an,
county of any state in which thu
Northwestern operates.

4 Lonely Bachelor Maid.

that he is coming back to my home town to

II you really love her, Jack, better do as

one is supposed to marry for lifetime, and
the choosing of ones life companion should
nottbe accomplished in couple of hours
weeks. One should have time to be sure they
are getting the one person in the whole world
for them.
Every human being must lose the mate
created for it soon or late, in accordance with
his plan. Few welded hearts are destined t,
be with each other to the very end of both
lives. One takes the boat which drifts away
from the shore in the early morning while
the birds are still singing their early mathis
and the dew besparkles each flower, blade
of grass, and quivering leaf of tree. Some

sun has reached the meridian and the world
pulses with its warmth and strength.
The one destined to be~1eft behind until the
shadows fall should make no moan against
the tender decree of destiny Whatever is, is
best There is yet a mission for the one left
behind to fulfill. This thought should give
one inspiration to reconcile the heart to the
belief that everything which happens is for
the best Fill the day with cheerfulness aud
the rosy morn's breath will be fragrant with
sweet gladness.
It is said that those who have never loved
never know the pain of parting. l hold that
love is the great purifier of the human heart,
which is subject to SO many contending emo
lions, and that
