lustie. It Last.

It has been truly said that the princi.
pies of rights and justice are eternal
and shall in the end prevail. No righ-
teous cause need long stand in want OF
a champion. For many moons the
male sex have been forced to sit pas
siyely by and haNS dinned into their
ears the fact that Miss So. and so, a
bride to-be, had been linen showered
by Miss Jones, and tin showered by
Miss Brown and cOunter.showered by
Miss Smith and 50 on down the line,
but they have strained their ears in
vain for even the fAintest thunder OF q
male shower. They have felt all along
that people ought 20 be just before
they are generous and that something
ought in justice b. done to that neces-
sary person who IL designated as him
or the groom at the wedding. And
in order to exemplify the verify of the
opening statements . number Of young
men of Audubon hit npon the idea OF
being Just and fair "a one Of their own
sex who, dame rumoR says, Is soon to
hike for the tall and the uncut there to
partake of the pleasures of matrimony.
Accordingly one OF the number "casu-
ally" mentioned the fact TO Prof.
Johanson that . few choice spirits were
to meet ON Monday evening and there
to partake in Q "watermelon debauch'
and be was requested to be present.
The gathering was at the home Of Mr..
H. J Mantz and those present besides
the hosts were Mr.. and Mrs. John Ker-
win, Messrs Lewis Bagley, Marsh
Jones, Will Hudler. Prof. Johanson,
Chas. Watts, DR.. Donaldson, Frank
Bagley, Chas. White, Robt Rachel and
Frank Sampson. After entertainment
consisting OF Victor Victrola music
some dainty refreshments consisting Of
sherbert, salad, cake, waters, and coffee
were served by Mrs. Kerwin and Mrs
Mantz. The refreshments being over a
knock was heard ct the door and the
messenger announced "a basket fol
Mr.. Johansen." A large basket filled
to overlooking was duly presented te
the surprised professor and at the be
hest of the ones present he opened and
displayed its contents. There were
many in number and covered wide
field OF usefulness. Following is the
partial list. tie, stick pin, stockings,
broOms, dust pan. plane, "a inch rule,
tiy swatterS, tin bucket, sand shovel,
punch bowl set. rolling pin, steak ham
mer, wash board, soap bowl. darning
stick. garden tools and raw. After
fully displaying all Of the above to the
admirers, and with their help the
pleased professor carefully gathered mp
his treasures and departed while the
smile which lurked IN his eye could be
construed into one of triumph and sue
cess, that Of one who has attained his
right and received his just dues.

was noted, however, that he skipped
portions Of these, and even ignored thu
testimony OF some witnesses who haC
made depositions. The next move wa
sudden.
The plaintiff rests attorney Jane

that he was mistaken In his report ant
