As history goes Colonel Robert
Morris OF the Forty-seventh British
regiment and a comrade-ln-arms Ot
General George Washington, pur-
chased the property and erected this
mansion which he subsequently pre-
sented TO his bride, In 1913.
General Washington occupied the
place in 1873, while 5000 volupteer
soldiers camped in the neighborhOod.
During a battle which resulted in the
capture OF Fort Washington, this house
was the center Of operations In 1777
IL served as the headquarters Of the
British army. In 1878 It was occupied
by General Baron Won Kuypausen and
his German following as Hessian
headquarters
Following the close Of the Revolu-
tionary war, this building was familiar
ly known as Calumet Inn. Stage
coaches operating between New York
city and Albany changed horses at this
point President Washington and his

TOO MUCH MOONSHINE;
TWO LIVES ARE LOST
Shooting Affray in Isanti
County Ends With
Two Deaths.

A murder tragedy which re-
suited in the loss of two lives and
attributed to the cause of drink
ing took place in Isanti county on
Sunday, July 8. The Mile Laos
County Times reports the affair
as follows:
"A terrible shooting tragedy
occurred across the line in Isanti
county near the little town of
Dalbo, Sunday night, which re-
suited in the death of two resi-
dents Of that locality. John Sjo-
berg shot and killed Andrew
Newman during an alteration
that arose as Sjoberg and a rela-
tive. Dan Anderson, were passing
the Hildar Blixt place, where
Newman and Blixt were standing
near the road as they passed,
Sjoberg had been drinking and
was intoxicated. AS he passed
Newman asked him where he was
going and Sjoberg with a curse
told him il was none of his bust
ness. Hot words followed and
suddenly without warning Sio-
berg drew a revolver and shot
Newman through the breast, kill
ing him instantly. The murderer
fled into the woods nearby. The
sheriff at Cambridge was notified
and on arriving on the scene or
ganIzed a man hunt that lasted
all night, in search for Sjoberg.
In the early morning they cor
nered Sioberg in some brush and
a gun battle followed in which
Sjoberg fell riddled with bullets.
The remainder of a quart of
moonshine was found on the body
of Sjoberg. He was about fifty
years old, unmarried and worked
in the sawmill at Dalbo. He was
known as a crack shot and rather
a desperate character. Newman
was employed on his brothers
farm near Dalbo, No motive for
the murder is known other than
drunken anger An inquest over
the bodies was held at Cambridge
on Monday
1T is said that Hildur Bhxt, on
whose farm the tragedy occurred
is a relative of Claus Blixt, who
was sentenced to prison for life
for the murder of Catherine Cling
in the Harry Hayward case years
ago"

Don't
Dribble
Your
Money
Away
=

Your wish is to become
the owner of something
worth while. Something
that will make you better,
happier and more useful. 1t
may be a beautiful home, a
good farm, a grand piano, an
automobile, a trip abroad, a
visit to California or some
other thing worthy Of attain
ment that you have in mind.
There is no reason why
your wish should not be full
filed; but your dreams must
be followed up with resolve
and action. You must work
with that end in view.
Most people do work, but
only a few attain the desired
goal. Why is that? They
dribble their money away.
They spend a nickle here, a
dime there and a quarter or
a dollar elsewhere. When
the week or the month is
out, the last penny is spent.
Sometimes, if we have made
a practice of saying charge
it,, it will not even reach
around. We have spent more
than we have earned, and we
are on the down grade. If
we find ourselves there the
only salvation is to put on
the brakes good and hard at
once. 1t will be very diff
cult to climb to the top
again, but it can be done.
Now, it is Just as easy to
save money as it is TO drib-
bic 1T away. If we keep our
nickles and dimes together
they make in a very short
time dollars. Just make it
a practice to drop in at the
bank with your loose change,
get a deposit receipt and
store it away; the bank will
do the rest-add your drib-
blings together, pay you in
terest on it, and surprise YOU
at the end of the year with a
statement of your sum total.
Now, understand, this does
not mean that you should be
a miSer. 1t only means that
you should be wise in deny
ing yourself some of the mi
nor and questionable pleas
ures in order to realize some
of the greater things of life.
Young man and young wo-
man, try this manner of saw
ing. You will be pleased
with the result. You will
value yourself a better citi-
zen, and rightly so, and your
fellowmen will esteem you
more.
