days ]. Rufus Wallingford was a blum
dering amateur by comparison with
John O'Brien, sentenced to the Still
water prison by Judge Roeser yester-
day while conducting a special term OF
court at Little Falls. Shortly before
going to Little Falls to pass sentence
on O'Brien, self admitted double store
robber, the Judge received a letter
from O'Brien in which the prisoner
asked the advice of the court upon his
most glowing plans.
Million Dollar Corporation
First of all, O'Brien would be liberat-
ed. Then he would start corporation
farm founded with 100000 backing.
This money he would get by the sale
of stock. BY right of purchase or
lease he would secure 10000 acres.
With the million dollars secured from
the sale Of stock he would buy live
stock, tractors and machinery. Much
of the unemployed land in Morrison
Benton, Crow Wing and Cass counties
would be broken and titled.

A Near.Freshet In February.

Streams went to the highest point OF
the year, IL not for longer period, in
the rain of Wednesday night and Thurs
day. Stony Brook, which is known as
quick" stream, felt the rise early. The
ice broke up, and below the concrete
bridge jam formed, which turned some
of the water into Main Street for while
Thursday, but the jam broke before any
trouble was caused. On the flats on the
Stony Brook road there was depth OF
water at the highest pitch which varied
from four feet as related on the street
corner, to about two feet at the deepest,
as found by those who travelled through
it. The water was some inches above
the bottom of the sleighs of those who
forded IL.
Western Avenue looked for q while
just about as it did in ante-sewer days.
A flood poured off the hillside in numer-
Gus streams so fast that no ordinary pipe
could take care of It. For while
Thursday afternoon there was nearly a
foot OF water In the street above Aliens
store. Eventually the sewer took care
of it, and Friday morning the street was
dry down to the level of the catch ba.
sins, the water standing only 10 the hol.
lows between the street and the railroad
which are lower than the street.
The change to colder weather stopped
the flow soon after the rain stopped, and
no damage Of any amount resulted. Al
"King's mill" bridge stringer was TAX
en- out and the planking demoralized
but this Is the largest item Of loss re-
ported.
As the result Of the rain, the good
shedding is practically ended for the win
ter. Wheels are used somewhat about
the villages, and no heavy teaming car
be carried on from outside. Snow
storms may yet give us short spells o.
shedding, but they will not last long a

Good Cheer Fair and Play.

Weather conditions were about as bad
as could be for the annual fair OF the
Universalist Good Cheer Society We'd
nesday and Thursday. Nevertheless
there was no postponement, and a sur.
prising number got out and patronized
the sale Wednesday afternoon and even
ing. % Thursday afternoon the condi-
lions were about impossible, and only
those who had to get out were present
More than usual of the articles on sale
were left over, and some Of them will be
placed on sale in connection with the reg
ular March supper of the society Tues
day of this week.
On Thursday and Friday evenings the
comedy-dra "His Last Chance" was
presented in Grange Hall to two good
houses.
Those who noted the cast of the play,
selection from our most tested and
proved amateurs, do not need to be told
that it was one of the best Of the stage
successes that we have had in some
time. Every one was at his or her best
and the whole action moved in a way
| that can best be described as "snappy.'
Clean, bright and lively comedy Is the
play. Young Lightheart, having de
ceived his rich uncle in India by repre-
senting himself as married, is surprised
by the sudden appearance Of the uncle
He "borrows" a wife for few hours,
and his friends assist him in his deceit,
and the tangled web" which results is
a rapid fire of different but equally un'
comfortable and dangerous situations,
all highly mirth-provoking.
Harry Shaw as DR.. Potter, and Harold
Briggs as Lightheart, or Joy, carried
themselves with ease and appropriate
ness through numerous difficult situa
tiops, and displayed in refined way
variety of emotions. As their consorts,
real or counterfeit, Miss Helen Barnes
was Mrs. Potter, the notably sweet dis
positioned lady who manifested her dis
pleasure BY a striking exhibition of tenn
per, and Miss Airline Croker was Miss
Kate, the stubborn little MINK" who
displayed her stubbornness by perfectly
angelic sweetness.
Ernest Record as John Stevenson, the
rich and eccentric uncle, had character
part to which he gave full value.
As Sam Buttons, the footman, Miss
Viola Walton was very Henglish and
utterly irrepressible, and won the ap,
plause of the audience, and Miss Lena
Franck as Mary, the maid, had an Irish
part which she presented in most real
istic manner. A. l.. Holmes, as Barney,
the gardener, had a minor but essential
part.
Elmer Dean was introduced in one OF
the acts for song, and responded to an
encore. Shaw's orchestra played each
evening, and also ran dance after the
play each evening.

ing the interest. He moved the raising
of $500 for the purchase OF the land, to
be added to the high school grounds.
The motion Was carried without opposi-
ton.
The article relative to the North Paris
school house was then taken from the
table, the school board and North Paris
citizens, who had been in consultation,
having returned to the hall. DR.. Wheel
er of The school committee stated that
an agreement on all the details could
not be reached as yet, but the need of q
new school house was apparent. and
he moved that We raise the sum OF $4,000
for the erection of new school house.
There was question whether any &C.
tinn could be taken unless the plans
were present, and there was some discus
sion on this point. Then there was
sumo more discussion as to whether
$4,000 was too much 10 put into small
hamlet, aud whether the whole PROPOSE
ton was In shape to take any legal &C
ton.
The discussion drifted on, formally
and informally, for half an hour or more,
and the one-room house plans recon-
mended by the school committee were
examined. Finally the motion to raise
$4,000 to build house according to the
plans of the school board was put and
lost by large vote.
1t lie apparent from the tenor Of the
discussion that the town is generally 10
favor of building new school house at
North Paris, when there can be agree.
ment upon the kind of house to be built.
The school board do not recommend
two-room house, and the citizens say 1t
Is two.room house or nothing.
As suggested by some of the voters In
the meeting, a special meeting can be
called later, when there Is definite
proposition before the town.

poses in 1914, and the amounts to be
assessed for town purposes in 1915, are
