The just Government League.

About thirty-five enthusiastic suffragsts
from all parts of the county met at noon
May End, at Edgewood, the residence of Mrs
M. A. Keys, near Forest Glen. Among the
number we're nine youngsters of from six
months to twelve years of age, who thus
happily settled the problem of how wo-
man can 60 to public meetings and look
after the children at the same time. The
little folks had a merry romp on the broad
porches and lawns while their mothers
were inside considering how they could
help to make the world better place for
these future citizens to grow up in.
After a social time and a capital lunch,
to both of which all contributed. the meet
ing was called to order by Mrs J. Ross
Thompson, acting president of the Mont
gomery County Just Government League.
Mrs. f. J. Hartshorn, of KensingtOn, in a
short but very interesting address told of

This unity of expression on the
subject covers, practically, the

tive of the general sCutiren:
which prevails with reference 10
the subject of providing ali agri-
cultural building on the University
grounds which will represent the
farming class OF the State, and
better cuable our young men to
prepare themselves for the greater
development of the agricultural
resources.
Up to the present time the State
has never made an appropriation
specifically for the construction of
agricultural buildings in connec-
ton with the College of Agriculture;
those at present occupied are
merely makeshifts Of buidins scat
tered over different parts of the
campus, and totally inadequate
for the purpose.
1t is hoped that all progressive
citizens in our parish interested in
agriculture will lend their aid in
the accomplishment of this project,
which is one of our greatest needs
at the present time.

BRADLEY SAYS LAND /
WORTH s175 Pc TAC6;E

Centerville, June 81. A. Bradley
stated that ne intended to appeal to
the courts unless compromise is made
on the price of the land which is to be
purchased by the city for the construc-
ton Of filters, price being fixed by a
sherin's jury Thursday. Mr.. Bradley
stated that the price Of the land re-.
fore and after the construction Of lie
sewerage system must be taken into
consideration. He owns in this piece OF
land sixty-five acres and with the
sewer emptying on his acreage, 1t
jeopardizes the price.
When the septic tank was built some
years ago by the city on this land.
three fourths of an acre was necessary
and Mr.. Bradley stated that the city
paid him $500 for this amount. He be-
lieves that the SITS per acre for the
five-acre tract will not pay the dam
age done to the whole farm. and stated
that he had lost at least 800 per acre
on his land for pasturage since the
construction Of the septic tank.

When the posse tried to lead the
mule away from his dead master he
fought them, tooth and hoof, until
some wanted to shoot him. But the
spirit Of the beast made one man
greedy of him; and on with him they
tussled until finally he was overcome.

SECONDS
His speech and manner were SO ear
nest that all in easy reach OF his voice
were listening to him, although most
of the players remained absorbed in
their games.
But while he had been talking he
had been unscrewing the top of his
powder flask; and the moment he fin
ished speaking he opened the stove
door and tossed over the live Goals
enough powder to make a fash that
startled the farthest players.
Then, holding the flask up In plain
view OF all, he rapidly replaced the
cap, and tossed the can far back into
the deep wood-stove.
Did they move? My God! but they
did; broke into madden stampede
than T have seen since wild broncos or
steers in; worse than flight of routed
cavalry: all tanning In cursing
fighting tangle for chance OF exit
through doors or windows.
Three duelists were there, famed
throughout the state for their cool
courage; dozens of gamblers, miners,
freighters, rivermen, reckless, desper-
ate fighters all, bare handed or with
weapons; but, like all men confronting
wholly new type of peril. with each
it was "the devil take the hindmost!"
OF course all got out, ultimately,
torn and bleeding but glad to be still
alive.
But behind them they left ruin cy-
clone could hardly have surpassed;
bar, tables, doors and sashes were
kindling-wood.
The Butler and the stove alone re-
manned unscathed!
