of things; but he is gone, and soon
I must go-we-we'Ve lost all; but
even now I can't see it as a crime.
I loved David, but we just didn't
fit-and again she thought of Marie
what a girl she was, she had been
so kline to her-simply because she
loved David. Again she shifted her
position, for more comfort, and be-
gan to re-live the years. Yes they
had been filed to the brim with
happiness, those first four and
half years; she wondered now, how
ever, if it had been real happiness.
or even any kind of happiness at
all; anyway it had been what she
had wanted. Ralph had followed
her against her wishes, and they
had slipped the cup together, down
to what he had termed the dress.
Dances, dances, parties and more
parties, cigarettes, dim lights, liq-
uor-a full realization of her con-
ception of life. And then-she COW
cred her face with her hands, as she
thought of Ralph-cold-lifeleSs,

back to her. David's cold words -

this painful remembrance: "Yo, no,
I'm back, and here's some ice cream

Some time elapsed and they went
inside, only to have Edna begin
again on her story of what life. had
been. "You might not know it,
David" she began, "but Marie IS in
love with you, and it will be sin
if you don't always be kind to her
she's so worthy"
But he would not allow her to
talk more.
When April has had her say and
departed, May brings her lapful of
roses for the crown of the reigning
queen. Mysteriously glorious sun
rises, and golden, mystic sunsets,
all are a part of her store. The
first cold, gray shadows of late
May dawn, shaded the broken

of the notorious slaver.'"
"It is thanks to his support, says
lie Grande Encyclopedia" that Cam
eron, in 1874, and Stanley in 1876,
and Wissman in 1882, could cross Al
RIGA"
AS to his slave activities, there can
be no sympathy for them, yet it
might be noted that he had been
reared to regard the slave-trade as
right. Benjamin Franklin and Thos.
Jefferson, two Signers of the Declara-
ton of independence, both dealt in
slaves, the former as broker, and
the latter as seller of his own mu-
latto children.

George Washington, too, owned
slaves, and as one of his letters shows,
he once gave a ship captain Negro
to be taken to the West Indies, to be
exchanged for a cask of rum and
other good old spirits" thus break
ing two laws Of the present day.
After Tippoo lib had Withdrawn
from the Congo, the minions of Leo
pold, as is known, brought in regime
of real horror.
Neither history nor romance con-
tilins a more stirring figure than that
of Tippoo lib, and when the true his
tory of Eastern and Central Africa
comes to be written he will be given
credit as being the real pioneer, and
not Stanley.
Had Tippoo lib foreseen he could
have changed the whole political as
Dect of Africa also. for as DR. Hein-
rich Brode points out, if he had
placed his conquests under the pro-
lection of the Sultan of Zanzibar, the
European powers could not so easily
have claimed them.

BIG STILL FOUND IN
GARAGE AT NEW ULM
BY u. S. AGENTS

Federal agents came to New Ulm
last Saturday afternoon and became
better acquainted with a gentry who
openly defied the prohibition laws and
arrested Chas. Lindmeyer and Anton
Lippert, who spent the night in the
county Jail and Sunday morning were
taken to st. Paul and placed in Jail
by the federal authorities says the
Brown County Journal.
Lindmeyer was found operating
a 250-gallon still in the basement of
his good-sized private garage in the
rear of his large stucco residence at
27 North Front Street, the still fac
ing First North street on a paved
street and is several blocks from the
city hall in the heart of the city.
Pedestrians report that alcohol fumes
greeted them on many occasions in
the past. The still had water and
sewer connections and was in full
operation. Some time ago the fire
department responded to fire at the
garage.
Conducting an unlicensed still and
charges of conspiracy are lodged
against Lindmeyer and Lippert is
charged with the sale Iof alcohol
which he purchased from Lindmeyer.

license was revoked by the city coun-
Gil, but he promised solemnly never
to slip again and the council REIN
stated the license.
