Mrs. OFlynn was redding up after breakfast, and finding myself in the way. took my water colors down to Apex Rock, to see If one sketch would hold winter. spring, summer, as viewed from the center of wonder land.
 Now our house being in full view from the apex. and sound travelling magically in this clear atmosphere, ] heard voices. Mrs. O'Flynn had a visitor, and I was in such a jealous hurry to share the gossip. that my sketch went over the cliff as l rose to run. A rather handsome man. in the splendid cowboy dress, stood by a chestnut gelding, such horse aris. tocrat that I made sure he must sport q coat of arms. Moreover, in a gin gerly and reluctant way. as though under orders, he was kissing Mrs 0'Flynn. She beamed, bless her silly old heartl
 Mrs. OFlynn looks on her truthful ness as a quality too precious fol everyday use. and so carefully has lt been preserved that in her ffty-fourth year it shows no sign of wear. Hence on reaching the house I was not sur prised to find that her visitor was total stranger.

His florid manners exaggerated politeness, and imitation of our middle-class English speech stamped his as a bounder, but not oi the British breed.

ONE MILL TAX
Necessary for Building the Tub
erculosis Sanitarium.

The tuberculosis sanitarium which
it is proposed that the counties of
Pope, Douglas. Grant and Stevens
build at Glenwood will be voted on in
Grant county, and should be voted on
in this county before this county is
committed to the expense of helping
build and support the institution.
The Hoffman Independent of last
week bad the following communication
from County Attorney Stromme. of
Grant county, explaining the saait-
arium question from a legal stand
point. He says -
AT the request of the County
Board, and without any expression for
or against, ! desire to call the atten-
ton of the voters of this county. to
question that will be submitted to
them at the coming general election.
Nov. Ord. 1914.
"The Legislature of 1913, pro-
vided for the establishment of county
sanitariums. Counties may build
separately or several counties may
unite in building one. A committee
from this cnunty board met with com.
mittees from Pope Douglas and Ste
vens counties at Glenwood. The four
county committees approved the plan
to erect one, probably at Glenwood.
The report further recommended that
the question be submitted to the vot-
ers of the four counties.
t'The report of the committee from
this county was considered by the
board, and the board. without express
sing their individual views in the
matter. passed resolution. directing
the auditor to submit the question to
the voters of this county, at the next
general election. The board feels
that the question is important and
wanted the attention of all voters
called to the question and wish to urge
that all voters take sufficient interest
to vote on that proposition.
'The law governing the establish.
ment Of such sanatariums is Chapter
500 Laws, 1913, also Sec. 1879
720, General Statutes for Minnesota,
1913.
The State pays one half the ex-
pense of the erection and equipment,
including cost of site of such SAINT
ariums, not to exceed $50, 600. 90.
For the maintenance of each free pat
lent treated at the sanitariums, the
sum of Five dollars a week shall be
paid by the state Treasurer.
If this question should carry il
this county it would mean the spread.
ing of a one mill tax. until the build
ing is paid for and then a sufficient
levy to maintain it. There are twC
sides to this question and all the vot
ers should make sufficient lnvestiga
tion to enable him to properly de-
termine the question.

AFTER TWELVE HOURS
CELEBRATION.
Hearing of Court Cases Has
Been Continued this Week
and Three Days Has Been
Spent on the Suit of Mullen
against the Otter Tail Power
Co.

The suit of M. c. Heating against
James Graham for damages for al.
legged assault, which was on trial
last week, was decided for the defend
ant by a fve-sixths verdict of the
jury. This is the first time that a
case has been decided under this new
law, which provides that after twelve
hours deliberation, fve-sixths of a
jury may render a verdict in civil
cases. The jury spent the entire
night in the jury room.
The court heard the case of Bodil
Larson VS.. Rasmus Larson and the
Spooner Investment Co., and rendered
judgment for defendants.
The case of F. A. Mullen against
the Otter Tail Power Co. is being
tried before the court this week and
has already taken three days. The
suit arises out of the alleged prema.
ture cutting of the service wires to
Mr.. Mullen's building at the time OF
the fire nearly two years ago, Mr..
Mullen's contention being that if the
wires had not been cut, ne would
have been able to have saved his
stock. He is suing for 81, 800. the
value of his stock. He had 50, 00C
insurance, and five incsurane com
panies have intervened in the case.
