SHE'S HAD SOCIETY AND SIMPLE

Because she was tired of Chicago

of wealthy importer, went out to
Colorado, lived in a bungalow on a
homestead claim, and now is engag-

Miss Ehrat proved her homestead

which puts such women away. It's
maybe all right to punish them, but

Absorbed in her argument, Evelyn

deeply egotistic, only an alert con-
science and a training for honest
work could ever have protected
Evelyn Thaw from herself.

mer Winneshieker.

Rev. X. Bjorgo, pastor of the
Trinity Norwegian Synod congrega-

sermon were also present at the an
niversary reception. Addresses were
made by DR.. C.. L. Opsal and Prof
Allen, and a purse of 500 was pre-
sented to Rev. Bjorgo, who there
upon made a fitting response.
Rev. Bjorgo was born in Norway
Oct. 2, 1S47, and came with his par
ents to America the following year
His parents settled in the state of
Iowa, not far from DEBORAH. In
1866 he enrolled as a student at

years. Receiving a call in 1885
from the Trinity Lutheran congre,
cation, he came TO Red Wing, where

Over near Manchester negro
was killed by posse who believed
they were after criminal. The
colored man bad been in that vicin-
ity looking for work and had eaten
supper at a farmers home and ask
ed permission tc sleep in the barn.
This was granted, but afterward
the members of the family became
frightened and telephoned Consta-

friend came to the farm and or
dered the negro to come from the
barn. When he did he became
alarmed because of the revolvers
the constable and his friend held
in their hands and started and ran.
He was followed by volley of shots
but made his escape in the darkness.
This was Saturday evening and the
following morning the negro was
seen walking along the road north
Of Greeley. The constable was no.
titled and he sent back word that
the negro was a desperate charac-
ter and to capture him, dead or
alive This, at least, was testified
to at the inquest. A posse was form
ed and the man hunt begun. The
negro was located, chased through
some timber and into an open field
where he was shot down while en-
deavoring to escape. Both bullets
entered the victims back, one going
through his shoulder and the other
through his body and coming out
at the left groin. Five men have
been indicted charged with the MUIR

ALL ABOUT sNAKEs-REAL

ALL ABOUT SNAkES-REAL ONES
Snakes do not chew their food.
They swallow it whole and often the
prey is larger than the snakes
mouth. How do they do it? The jaws
are connected at the rear by an elias
tic igament which permits the rep
tile to temporarily unlock its jaws
and to make the mouth as large as
paper bag.
A snake will appear to swallow a
small rabbit or some other animal
larger than it's mouth without even
batting its eyes. This is an optical
illusion, for their eyes are always
shut, close by transparent, fixed
lid. This serves two important pur-
poses: To protect the eyes without
obstructing the sight and to facilitate
the monthly change of raiment in
shedding the skin. III
The snake listens almost altogeth-
er with its tongue. The hateful little
forked tongue that is always darting
viciously is not to sting with, but to
hear with. ...
