Genesis and Eugenics.

Adam and Eve were created per-
feet but that sleek and graceful third
party tipped il off to Eve that she
would not die if she ate of a certain
kind OF fruit but would have a wise
little head afterwards She took the
chance; then seeing Adam she gig
gled. Calling 10 him she said AID try

no girl waiting at the church" for
Cain. After some 1900 years it was
found advisable to give the water
cure TO the progeny of the first cou-
pie. The remedy was unsatisfactory
for two reasons. First, shocking in
sanitary conditions that existed after
the flood; secondly the Noah family
was permitted TO escape The first
thing Noah did was to plant a vim
yard and he drank of the wine and
was drunk. On this occasion his
younger son acted shamefully and was
roundly cursed by his father. The

THE ETERNAL NICKEL.

We're getting tired Of this nickel life.
The nickel shows, the mick" cigars,
And all the various troupe. so rife
And this includes the nickel cars.
We're weary OF always keeping count
OF every nickel that we spend.
We would to realm OF dollars mount
And have the mazuma to lend.
THE foregoing effort is susceptible
of much larger elaboration, but being
an effort in the present state of the
weather the task is left TO the concep-
ton of the more or less energetic
reader.
WRITING verse in high tempera-
lures is not difficult after the pers-

IT requires a cool indifference to the
eternal fitness of things TO put in coal

They could set things up in the dark,

In the primary, it is not a question
of fixing a few hundred delegates
There are many times that many
citizens to fix, and the only way it
can be done is by a general campaign
of publicity, through stump and
press. The rank and file Will occa-
sionally go wrong, through wide

right a dozen times where the con-

After John Shelton Williams pro-
motion from assistant secretary OF
the treasury to his present place as
comptroller of the currency. it was
noted that he delayed moving from
the secretary's office to the room pro-
vided for the comptroller of the treas
ury, as If perfectly content right
where he was. 1t was nearly a
month after his appointment before
he packed up his belongings and went
over to his new quarters The &C
cepted theory about the treasury de-
partment in explanation of this delay
was that the office Williams had been
using afforded a better view and also
was more prettily furnished. The
comptroller of the currency was a less
important place heretofore than it is
under the new currency law and the
furnishings were not in keeping with
the new dignity the place had ac-
quired. Before John SHELTON VIII
liams could reconcile himself to his
new surroundings he arranged to have
il all re-equipped with rich cOlOrs
and modern appointments. The thing
one notices most, on entering Will
/ liams' office, is the floor covering, a
rug of solid red-making the reddest
red floor perhaps. ever seen outside
of a slaughter house.

ing only seven months old. Mrs.
Schoene1aIler suffered for the last sven
months from an aiImeDt OF the heart,
which was very EaiIful and frequently
brought her TO the point of death.
During ali the months OF suffering she
was always the patient christian
woman and mother. Her husband did
all in his power to save her life but all
efforts proves unavaiIing. She know
ing the end was coming, prepared her
self to meet her God by receiving ali
the last rites Of the Catholic church,
OK which she had been a life long and
devoted member; and thus prepared,

MRS. CONRAD KRUGER.

Mrs. Conrad Kruger died at her
home, March 20, at p m, after
lingering illness. She was born in
Darsow, Germany, Nov Is, 1851, and
was the youngest of seven children
her maiden name was Bertha Kruger.
She came to America in Novemberj 1872
and married Conrad KFueger on April 8.
of the next year. To this union were
born three sons. John, Fred and Con-
rad, and three daughters, Ida, Bertha
and Albertina,
Thus passes from our midst we'll
known and much respected character,
q model wife and mother, a woman Of
many friends. Her early coming to
America as the bride-elect of our emf
nent aud respected fellow-citizen. Con-
rad Kruger, is romantic story. Those
who saw her at the time can recall a
beautiful girl with long thick braids Of
golden hair and an abundance Of good
heslth. Gladly she took up with the
privations and sacrifices of prairie life
and lived to see material success and
prosperity increase with the years as
the reward OF honest industry and
good common sense. Even in those
early days the Kruger home became a
delightfully."- hospitable spot, enticing
friends to frequent visits; those who
have once partaken Of its hospitality
have never ceased to speak Of it.
The services, conducted by Rev.
West, were held at her country resi-
dence on Monday at II a. m. A multi
tude of friends from far and near as
sembled for the last sad rites, showing
how widely the deceased was known
and loved. Interment followed in Win

Our deepest sympathy is hereby ex-
tended to the berea7ed family.
