Baby Talk .


Sometimes ! pause and wonder
How a baby can ever grow
Into n person whom you'd say
A single song could know.
When every mother in the land
And every woman friend
Talks such fool language TO the
child
How can he understand
600 little tootsywootsie ting.
Whose umpty-ump is 90?
GOO pony pig and angel pie
600 little googie-goo.
So isn't II wonder that
The child don't go insane?
The nurse, the aunt. the grandma
all
Join in the fool refrain,
Until the darling grabs an ear
Or pulls out half your hair.
An yells, but can you blame II wher
Such sounds ring on the air?
600 little tootsy- -wootsie ting
Whose umpty-ump is 90?
600 pony pig and angel pie
600 little googiegoo.'

first year there were two teachers and
SO pupils. In the fall of 1878 the
school moved to it's present site on

of the city. The "Old Main" build
ing was erected with funds furnished
by Norwegian Lutheran congregations
in Goodhue and Rice counties and citi
zens of Mortified. The school grew
in scholastic rating and attendance A

Soon after noon the two men, both
armed with rifles, entered the woods
to hunt. Failing to find sufficient
game, they placed a target on a tree
and began shooting at it. 1t was while
so engaged that Hibean's weapon was
discharged by the limb of tree, the
ball striking Kubek. The injured man
fell to the ground, and when he failed
to move, Hibean, respondent, shot

The Bauer of Austria.

The most interesting of Austrian
types and the backbone of the dual
monarchy, is the bauer" In social
rank he occupies somewhat the same
position as the old English yeoman,
farming his own land, and in many
cases enjoying far more substantial
fortune than the nobility. The bauer"
has a strict social code of his own,
mixing neither with the laborers on
one hand nor the aristocracy on the
other, is apparently quite content with
his lot, and takes pride in his ability
to provide almost all the necessaries
of life from the productions of his own
land, even, in many cases, growing the
fax from which his womenfolk weave
all the household clothing.

Stars EnouQh for All of Us,

When Emerson advised everybody
to hitch his wager to a star, it was
thought the advice was impracticable
that there were not stars enough to
go around. At that time there were
only three or four thousand stars Wis
ible, which number was far short of
the demand. But when maps of the
skies were made with the assistance
of the telescope and camera, it was
found there were 55,000,000 stars-not
yet quite enough for all. These stars
were below the seventeenth magni.
tude, which was as far as the optical
instruments would reach, but since
then the twenty-fourth magnitude
stars have been brought to view, and
now the number of stars is estimated
at 100000. So there will need be
no trouble about it. There is a star
for every wagon, and a few left for
unborn generations. So hitch your
wagon to star, and don't delay. The
times demand it.-Ohio State Journal

LAKEVILLE P. O. is ROBBED
Safe Blown and $1,1oo Stolen-BeIiev-
cd Work of Professionalism
Heard Explosion.

st. Paul.-The safe of the postoffice
at Lakeville, Dakota county, was
blown Thursday night. The thieves
got 500, $1,000 worth of stamps, a
quantity of money order blanks and
some papers and deeds.
Marshal j. A. Betz of Lakeville
thinks the robbers knew of the ship.
ment of registered mail package con-
tanning $4,000 to the Dakota County
bank. This was delivered before
night, fortunately.
The robbery was apparently the
work of skilled professionals. Blan-
kets thrown over the safe smothered
the explosion so well that the few per-
sons who heard the report were not
moved to investigate.
G.. M. Sauser's automobile, stolen by
the thieves at Lakeville, was discov.
cred by searching party half mile
from the town. Wheel tracks showed
that the robbers had changed to an.
other machine which had been waiting
for them, and which apparently was
not taken into the town lest it be
traced by the license number.

"WHY CAN'T ! DO IT?" THE AN.
SWER.

Spartan mothers, in order to stimu.
late their ambition, used to take
their boys to the Pantheon in Athens,
where their young imaginations
would be fired by the sight of the
statues of the nations gods and
heroes. Standing before one of those
heroic marble figures, the mother
would tell the story of the original,
while boyish hearts would sparkle
with awakened ambition under the in.
SEPARATION of her words. Many a young
mind was thus fired to emulate the
hero that particularly appealed to
him.
No other one thing is of such pre-
cious help to youth as to be con-
stautly stimulated along the line o.
his career, and nothing else will give
him such Inspiration, nothing else is
so ambition-rousing as the life-stories
of those who have accomplished
things under great difficulties.
Emerson says: Il cannot even hear
OF personal vigor of any kind, great
power of performances, without fresh
resolution. :. This is the moral

was murdered in the private room of
the bank.
32-Caliber Revolver.
A bullet fired from 32-caliber re-
volver entered the back of his neck
under the left ear and lodged over
the right eye. No weapon was found
on the premises. Theories of suicide
have been discounted from the first.
The sheriff, county attorney and cor
oner were summoned from Litchfield
and an autopsy was held. The bullet
was removed.
While officials were blocked at every
turn in trying to solve the mystery of
the murder, the search for a suspect,
who is believed to have deliberately
murdered the banker in an attempt to
get $1,000 from the banks vaults, led
to Minneapolis.
Body Half Standing.
Palmquist was found dead, his body,
with bullet hole in the head, was
half standing, half crouching, against
steel wicket between the directors
room and the bank proper. No weapon
could be found and Coroner A. w.
Robertson of Litchfield declared posi-
lively that the man was murdered

had told story of the tragedy that

Theory of Coroner.
That man entered the directors
room, where Palmquist was sitting
alone, talked of business matters, then
demanded $1,000 which was in the
vaults and murdered the cashier in de-
termined efforts to get it, was the
theory of the crime advanced by Coro-
ner Robertson.
The man could have heard a CONVEX
sation between Palmquist and F. A..
Carlson, vice president of the bank,
concerning the money. The murder
took place within a few minutes after
Carlson left for Litchfield, taking ST.

about rs years old, neatly dressed in
