the offended stiffening OF his shoui
ders and the smoldering fire in his
eyes. She had heard much Of the
strong, easily hurt pride of these
mountain men-a pride which made
them walk in strange surroundings
with upright heads and eyes, challeng
ing criticism Of their uncOuthness.
She had first appealed to this man,
hut at least she had also stung him
with her scorn. Now they would be
open enemies.
She knew that this young man. in
a country where every man was poor
and no man a pauper, owned great
tracts of land that yielded only sparse
crops with tie most ar1uous cOaXiug
She knew that under his rocky acres
slept great wealth OF coal, and that
above them grew noble and virgin
forests Of hardwood. The coming OF
railroads and development would
make him q rich man. Yet he stood
there, seemingly pricing above all
those magnificent certainties the
empty boast Of feudal chieftainship.
Yet he VAS a man. With that though
came an unwelcome comparison. She
thought OF someone whom she had
lOye1-and sent away-and of their
leave-taking. That man had had every
gentle attribute which this man
lacked. All that universities. travel
and ancestry can give had shown out

and the expression of his eyes.
There hal been a time when she
had waverel in her determination to
devote herself to the mission for which
she had been educated. She thought
that this man might be more impor-
tant than any mission; that a life
with him might be full enough. Then
had come the discovery. which at first
she had rebelliously denied. but which
forced itself hatefully upon her reali-
cation. Despite his interchangeable
charm and gentility, he was, after all,
not quite a man. When she had ad.
nitted that beyond dispute. she had
turned. sickcred, from the life which
she could not contemplate without

CHAPTER ~.

1t is related in the history of the
Hatfield Mccoy feud, which burst out
between neighbors over a stray pig,
and claimed its toll OF lives through
half century, that one of the Hat
field girls wrote on white pillar at
the front OF her often bereaved house:
There is no place like home" The
sequel tells that cynical traveller
passing that way reflected on the an
mails of that dwelling and added in
postscript: "Leastways not this side
Of hell"
The story of the Hatfield Mccoy
feud is in many ways that of other
wars" which have made of the roof
tree az the eastern divide a land be-
leaguered and unique.
In the war between the Haveys and
the McBriars there was more than the
forgotten episode of stray razorback
which was not surrendered to its law
ful owners. They had for decades
lated and killed each other with a
fidelity Of bitterness that made all
their truces and intermarriages fail of
permanent peace.
Between the territories where they
had originally settled stretched bar
rier Of hills broken by only one gap.
The McBriars had made their first
haSitatons east OF that ridge and gap
where The waters ran toward the sea.
The Eaveys had set up their power
he naly nd
springs fed the rivers that went down
to the Blue-Grass and to Tennessee.
Had the two clans been content to re-
clain respectively on the sunrise and
sunset slopes OF the backbone. they
might never have clashed. but there
were hright.eyed women to the west
and east. Feminine IIavey eyes lured
McBriar suitors. and McBriar girls
seemed TO the IIavey men worth any
dare that fate might set. So il has
been since young Montagues and
Capulets ignored deadlines-and long
before. Smoke went up from cabins
on both sides that housed men and
women of both clans. Hatred scat
tered ana set up new points OF infec-
tion all along Tribulation and beyond
Its headwaters.
In Civil war and subsequent politics
line Of fierce cleavage had yawnea
between them-and each faction had
been a power.
II was to the leadership OF such a
elan that Bad Anse had succeeded
when hardly twenty-one by the death
Of father whose end had not come
upon a bed OF illness.
II was &c the herding Of such flock
that he had ridden away from the
cabin Of Fletch McNash on the night
when the girls scornful taunt fol-
lowed him.
II was an unfortunate thing that
Cal Douglas should, on a February
afternoon, have shot to death his
brother-in-law, Noah Watt. even II, as

CHAPTER II.

The girl rose and made her way
unSteaGily DO the back door and let
herself in She threw herself on the
bed and lay there, rapidly thinking. 1t
was obvious that her absence had not
been commented upon. A few min

served jointly as kitchen and dining

When she entered the place Fletch

saggcd over his plate with the stupid

JIanita found herself unacccunt-
ably eager TO see the tall stranger
whose voice had treasured her; who
had appeared FIRST as the Samaritan

the man whose words gained prompt

He was standing, as she entered, a
little back from the hearth, with the
detached air of one who drops into the
background or comes 10 the fore with
equal readiness. She found that in

sort OF impressiyeness about him, In

sharp features lurked cunning, cruelty
and endurance. But the other man
who stood a head taller, fell into a
pose OF indOlont ease which might
wake instantly into power.
Il was a face strongly and ruggedly
chisclod. but so dominated by unfal-
tering gray eyes that one was apt to
forget all else and carry away only a
memory OF dark hair-an1 those eyes.
Then. as they sat at table aud the
girl struggled with her discontinue
over each unclean detail OF the food,
she raised her eyes from time 20 time,

BERRY GROWERS DON'T LIKE
NEW BILL.

The berry growers in the district
surrounding Mankato met at that city
hall the other day for the purpose of
protesting against the proposed bill
in the state legislature which prohibits
the removal of berries from the boxes
until they are sold to the consumer.
L. E. Camp of Rapidan presided at
the meeting. 1t was the sense of the
meeting that the proposed law is too
drastic in it's provisions, and would
work a hardship. on the berry growers
and the consumers alike, in that it would
not permit of picking over of berries
when once placed in the boxes.
It was decided to send a commit
tee to St. Paul to protest against the
measure, and see if an amendment
could not be offered whereby the grow
ers be permitted to pick over their
berries after being placed in the recep-
tacles.

offering the largest prizes ever offered in
Minnesota for prize corn.
The Bull Tractor Engine is worth 1886
of any mans money as general purpose
farm utensil and if no other prize were
offered it would be big thing for any
farmer to get. In addition to the trac-
tor they are to give a silo, milking
machine, check row corn planter and
other valuable prizes.
At the convention which meets on the
25th and Goth there is to be program
made up of the best talent to be secured.
President Vincent of the University will
give his great lecture on the Community
Spirit on the evening of the 25th, and
Governor Hammond will give his address

will also be addresses by farm experts
each day, morning and afternoon and

PIONEER NURSERY GROWING.

Owing to the increased volume of bust
ness the Pioneer Nursery has found it
necessary to inaugurate separate sales
department. Heretofore VIM Pfaender,
Jr. has looked after the raising of the
nursery stock itself and also. had charge
of the sales. This he found too much
work on account of the increased business
and he has secured an experienced sales
manager who has been on the Job since
the beginning of the week. As soon as
practicable Mr.. Pfaender will have the
Pioneer Nursery Incorporated and with
the aid Of the sales department the bust
ness will be pushed to the fullest extent.
Mr.. Pfaender is quite confident that
with additional capital and the additional
help he has secured he will be able in
very short time to double the volume of
business.

Wednesday Feb. II, 1915.
Official Paper of Brown County.
Official Paper OF the City Of New Ulm'

Opinions differ widely as to what means
should be employed to make wars i'm
possible. There are many who sincerely
believe that a strong army and large
navy will accomplish this, in spite OF the
fact that the armament of the European
nations has not been able to prevent the
present gigantic world war and may have
in reality encouraged it. The only ones
who can effectively and conclusively
put an end to war are the producing
workers of the world. All they need do
IN case OF impending war would be to
declare general strike and an inter-
national boycott Of the powers at war.
It's about time the workers realize their
power and use it to put an end to the
outrageous wrongs being inflicted upon
shem by the savage lust for power shown
by the governing classes.

LOCAL NOTES

A very pleasant evening was spent
at the home of Albert Knees of Milford
last Wednesday evening. Progressive
euchre was played at five tables and the
prizes were awarded as follows: star,
Fred Hamann; gents head, Otto Hey
mann; ladies' head, Miss Tillie Hey
mann; gents BOBBY, Albert Knees;
ladies' BOBBY, Mrs. Herman Pfaender.
A splendid lunch was served.
Miss Minnie Wendt who is visiting
with her friend, Mrs. Ralph Loot
bourrow, formerly Miss Bretta PRICE,
at Sabetha, Kansas, writes that the
weather they are having there is beau
tifully warm and spring like and her
brother Leo who is spending vaca-
ton at Hot Springs, Ark. says that in
the three weeks he has been there he
has had use for his over coat only once.
Meanwhile, here at home the coal bill
goes on mounting higher and higher
as the coal pile becomes smaller and
smaller. We can not really complain
even at that, for the past two weeks
have been very mild with the excep-
ton of the unpleasant weather of Sat
urday. According to Twin City re-
ports, New Ulm escaped very luckily
at that for what came down as rain
here was snow and slush that stood
inches deep on the pavements in the
Sanity City. The chief inconvenience
caused here was the slippery walking
which made it dangerous to keep to
the sidewalks and wherever one looked
Saturday pedestrians were to be seen
parading in the middle of the road.
The cold was not severe, however,
and in many places the streets are nicely
cleared again and with the bright skies
above we have still reason to be sails
fed with Minnesota weather.
