DEATH CLAIMS
 PIONEER LADY

Mrs. Claudine Jensen, wife o1 the late s. M. Jensen, died at her nome in this city last Tuesday, March 4th, of stomach trouble after an illness of some two weeks.
 The passing of this christian woman has brought grief to many homes in this city, where she has resided since she and her kus- band and son arrived 35 years ago. Mrs. Jensen was one of Gods angels sent to earth to re- side for a few years to be a com fort unto all those who became acquainted with her. Her friends were many, all of whom loved her for her sweet and aimable disposition and ladylike ways.
 Mrs. Jensen's maiden name was CIaudine Nelson. She was born November 8, 1851, in Bin slev, Denmark. She was an earn est worker in the L.. D. s. church until her health failed her. She was devoted to her home, and was a great lover of flowers. Many beautiful bouquets from her flow CT garden has found it's way into the homes of the afflicted and lonesome as well as,others.
 She leaves one son, Martin Jen- sen, to mourn her death. Her husband, s. M. Jensen, who was well and favorably known by all who dwell in St. loans, died some Is or IF years ago.
 Funeral services were held at the academy Wednesday at 2::30 where many gathered to pay their last respects to the departed sister and friend. The remains were inferred in the Westside cemetery.

One of our citizens who occa- sionally wipes the dishes for his wife, became tired of the job and refused, saying that it was not a man s work. " Not feeling dis posed to lose his help she brought the Bible out to convince him of his error and read as follows from II Kings, 21:13: And will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down." It is needless to say that he is still doing his occa- sional stunt.
 Did you see it? What? Why "Over the Top" at the Jen-Dike Theater Tuesday and Wednesday nights. It was certainly worth while as all of their photo plays are. But "Over the Top" is the best we have ever seen in St. Johns and the management did not over draw the picture either. It was worth the time and money. The management of the theater is certainly trying and is succeed ing in pleasing their patrons. Other good ones will follow soon.

 Since the last issue of the HERALD we have been informed that much credit is due Mrs. Pauline c. Anderson for the sue cess of the Brownie Band enter tainment. Mrs. Anderson had charge of the dancing which l was so beautiful accomplished.

Incorporate
Don Marius Breaks Into Verse

There was a clown
 Of a town Called San Jones,
 Filled with bones, Some Ossifed,
 Mostly Mossifed. Museum of old drones.
 It's citizens walked about And talked about
 Things ancient and dead. For why should they Or how could they Think of things new
 When nothing ever grew In a town so dead. With minds so enrapt
 And with ideas entrapt Of things so long, long ago, They couldn't catch the how Of doing something now
 To help the old place Take it's part in the race
 For things new, Oh No. A man well intentioned
 Simply mentioned, If we cut any ice
 It would be very nice To incorporate old San Jones. " Immediately the bones Of all the old drones
 Began to rattle
 And to prattle And swear by the long dead past, 1t would bust US all Both great and small
 If this was allowed to last. So to save the expense
 Of about thirty cents, We'll not give a ''cop" a smell. We'll not be goaded We can't be loaded With Mayor and Council and sich So into the ditch We'll dump the whole thing While all of sing 'Iet the old town go to hell" :"
 Re Qui escat in pace"
 (which translated means)
 Rest quiet cat in peace.

NEEDED IMPROVEMENTS
DEAR EDITOR:

In your issue of February 27tk
 1 notice another effort is being made to have the town of St. Johns incorporated. think it is time some thing was done to ben. eft the pedestrians of this place in the way of taking care of our streets. One only has to take a walk around the town to see the shameful conditions. Some peo- pie seem to think, or show it by their actions, that the sidewalks are their own private property, do with them as they please, strewing them with all manner of implements, lumber, old barrels and all kinds of rubbish imagina- ble, to the jeopardy of life and limb of people travelling after dark. Another thing 1 notice is cutting ditches across the side walks to irrigate their lots, which l in some places are 2 to 6 feet wide, no plank, no bride or Hume to cross on. Boys like to jump oyer such places, but what about the mother with Der baby buggy. | have seen them looking all across the street to find places to cross but have had to wade through mud and water.
 1 have in mind now one block in particular where the ditch is from 2 to 3 feet deeper than the level of the sidewalk, and on that same block there are three more ditches cut across the sidewalk and no way to cross only by jumping or wading through it. Oh, what pride some people do take Tn thelr surroundings.
 Another menace to the citizens of this town is pickets hanging by one nail in just the right posi- ton to impaIe any person after dark.
 Others have a habit when they have lumber hauled to their place of placing one end on the fence, projecting over the sidewalk for someone to run into after dark.
 Others will let their breachy cows run at large which are nuisance to the whole town and many a man and woman have worked hard for weeks to raise a garden to have ruined in one night. Oh, how we love our neighbors as ourselves.
 Another unsightly thing on our streets is a great big bunch of steps to some public buildings half way across the sidewalk; pretty things to stumble over in the dark.
 We were told the last time that incorporation was talked about, that there were provisions already in the law governing th3se things without going to the expense of living under incorporation. Is 1t not about time the inhabitants of St. Johns arose en masse and de manded that theEe laws be en- forced?
 These are only a few things that we need, many more could be mentioned if space would per init but perhaps we are like P. I. Barnum said, the people like to be humbugged. v
 Look at our people wading in mud over their shoe tops crossing the streets when a few loads of gravel would make the crossings so beneficial.
