He threw out all the cartridges, but as usual there was one more, and its presence proved fatal. ‘Io make the incident more dramatic than ordinary the victim’s young wife and child were witnesses to the awful accident. cpg cena WE MADE MURRAY MAD Murray ‘Taylor of the Deer River News says: “It is evident from a blatant disgorge of gush contained in the last issue of the Grand Rapids Herald-Review that the leisure editor thereof has truly returned from his long spree, and that he has taken a cure or someone has bought him a drink.” This was probably inspired by a few pointed comments in the last is- sue of the Herald-Review relative to the ingratitude, inconsistency and im- becility of the Deer River rag ranter. It was most unkind, uncharitable and ungrateful of Murry to give it out so fierce and frigid that the Herald-Re- view responsibility had been spreemg instead of touring the continent, as re- ported generally by the. press here- abouts. As was said in this column a week ago, Murry 1s not a good fellow in any bunch, Murry isa mongrel any place and under any circum- stances. If he were not an ingrate of the meanest mould he would have re- membered that this paper refrained from publishing anything about wife beaters and _ has refrained trom pub-| lishing some other things that would any guilty creature, however steeped in vice, to some coast where his repu- Con- tinuing Murry reiterates his oft repeat- tation is not generally known. edclaim to having rid that community of undesirables and thereby under- went “years of labor and financial suftering.” He claims to have driven “to the coast, to prison and to the fire proof gates [to hell] the ilk who used to be Kiley’s friends in Deer River.” You never Murry, you'r a_ liar. drove anybody any place. Irmt the name ot man—not dead and claimed by you to be in hell—who one left Deer River through your instru mentality. Where are the men who haye repeatedly charged you with things unspeakable on the pubhc streets—the men who have huried in- sults into your teeth that no manly man was ever known to meekly swal- low?

Editor Hamilton of the Aitkin Re- publican finds sweet solace and soul comfort in a little treaty of peace and and expresses his feelings: ‘“‘I'here is nothing hike tmz to mellow the feel- ings. Years ago we remember Edit ors Kiley and Bernard as being con- stantly engaged in the bitterest of newspaper warfare, but things have changed, and we find in the Herald- Review of last week a sentiment akin to sympathy and good feeling. The Cass Lake Voice, Editor Bernard’s paper, 1s not satisfied with the aspir- ants for congressional honors, and Editor Kiley suggests that if Mr. Ber- nard will pick out the right man the Herald-Review will extend its influ- ence 1n the Sixth disirict and help him: cinch the election -of his choice. There is a good exemplification of the brotherly love, So mote it be.” A WINTER LECTURE COURSE A winter lecture course will be con- ducted in Grand Rapids under the auspices of the public schocls. Five attractions will be arranged for by Superintendent Freeman. He has al- ready booked theDixieJubilee singers and Maud Elmer Jones, the talent- ed soloist who delighted a large au- dience at the High school auditorium last season. ‘The Dixie Jubilee sing- ers gave such satisfaction here a year ago that a return visit will be appre ciated. Some of the foremost lecturers now on the forum will be secured. There should be no question as to re- eeiving a sufficient number of pa- trons to insure a financial success of tha undertaking. * ANNUAL FALL EXCURSIONS.

John Wesley wrote in 1748: “I could not imagine what should occa- sion the shaking of ty hand till I ob- served it was always worst after breakfast, and that if I intermitted tea drinking for two or three days it did not shake at all. Upon inquiry | found tea had the same effect on other persons of my acquaintance, and therefore saw that this was one of its natural effects, as several physicians have often remarked.” After a daily practice of tea drinking for twenty- seven years Wesley left it off. The effects of relinquishing it fully an- swered his expectations. “My para- lytic complaints are all gone, my hand is as steady as it was at 15, and I save up 50 pounds ($250) ajyear.” Dagonet. The night King Arthur climbed the dismal stair At Camelot (forsaken by his queen mee by his knights, without a hupe to Tean His grief y upon or comfort his despair), ‘About his feet within the darkness there ‘A Voice clung with low words and sobs between— “Lo! Dagonet, thy fool, weeps here un- seen, Who nevermore a smile shall make thee wear! Alas for him who climbs the dismal steep Of life alone—who must endure the pain Of ap o'erloving heart whose trust was To whom. ‘a Voice comes from the shad- ows deep— “Lo: I on ove, thy poor fool, and I wee] Because. 1 never shall make thee smile agi —Lucile Tatiana in the Cosmopolitan. Realism of a Sort. “My Ownest Own Lovey Dovey,” wrote the road hardened traveling man, “your eyes are as blue as hotel cream your hair is as yellow as the napkins, your teeth as white as the butter. Your cheeks and lips are as red as the face of the angry hotel clerk when you have asked him the second time in one day for stationery. Your form is as willowy and lissome as my collars on their arrival from a jay laundry, and your voice is as low and soft as the inaudible knock of the porter at 2 g. m. when you have warn- ed him to be sure not to let you miss jour train.”—Baltimore American. Birds Driven Out to Sea. In the far North, and. particularly along the ocean coast, birds are fre- quently storm driven and lose their bearings, so that many of them are lost at sea. They keep floating in the air, aimlessly striving to live, until exhaustion compels them to drop into the waves, which engulf them. There is a well-authenticated case on record *f an ocean liner bringing into New York on a winter’s day a large white owl which had dropped to one of the forward spars in an exhausted condi- tion more than 800 miles off the coast of Newfoundland. Trouble Enough for All. Two city merchants were convers- ing on business matters outside a west end hotel. One of them was commenting upon the slackness of trade, and, perceiving at the moment a flight of pigeons passing overhead, he exclaimed: “How happy are those birds! They have no acceptances to meet.” To this the other merchant replied: “You are rather in error, my friend; they have their bills to provide as well as we!”—Exchange. SAW THE FEET OF CLAY. Charlotte Bronte Disturbed at Appe- tite of Her Ideal. As a child Charlotte Bronte adored Thackeray, long before the author of “Vanity Fair” became known to her personally. At last the two met, and here is Thackeray’s version of that memorable first meeting, as related by one-of his bigraphers. “Behold a lion cometh up out of the North!” the girl quoted under- neath her breath, as Thackeray en- tered the drawing-room. Some one re- peated it to him. “Good gracious!” said Thackeray, “and I am nothing but a poor speci- men of an Englishman, ravenous for my dinner.” At dinner Miss Pronte was placed opposite Thackeray by her own re guest. “And I had,” said he, “the miserable humiliation of seeing her ideal of me disappearing down my throat, as ev- erything went into my throat and nothing came out of it, until at last, as I took my fifth potato, she leaned across, with clasped hands and tears in her eyes, *»d breathed imploring: “Oh, . Thackeray, don’t!’” SURELY A GOOD EXPLANATION To All Who Know the Nature of That Kind of Animal. An Irish judge, in ccnsideration of the defending counsel being English and unable to get any results from his cross-examination of the plaintiff, who was also of Hiberian descent, un- dertook the examination himself. The case was that of an employe who had brought an action of damages against his employer for being kicked by one of the animals in the stable, while | performing his duties. “You say you were very careful in attending to this horse,” said the judgo, “and that you did not prod him on the legs with the fork, or excite him in any way; now what reason can you give for him having kicked you?” “Because he was a mule, sir,” re- turned the witness.
