The birth of a son to Mr, and Mrs. M. Pelican of this village on; ‘Wed- nesday of last week, brought out the fact, while in conversation with the father, that 21 children have been Dorm to this couple in 22 years. They all died in infancy, including.th latest, except two. The seventh child born, a boy, lived to the age of seven years, and the twentieth born, also a boy, lived seven months.

They were married in Red Lake Fails Minn; twenty-two years ago. Mrs. Pelican is one of a family of thirteen children, twelve of whom are now living. Returns Good For Evil John McMahon, the farmer and poli tician, who carries on his agricuiiur al operations and hatches up Pp cal schemes on his plantation adjoin- ing this city on the northwest cor- ner, has twice escaped _ serious trouble of late through the generous impulses of his erstwhile political op- ponent, Bill Carter. Bill and John were each candidates for the office ot tawnship supervisor last spring, and the campaign waged furious between the two factions. It is said John got so excited that he forgot to vote and didn’t even think to ask his friends to vote for him. Somebody voted for Bill and he was triumphant- ly elected. But even the final de- cision did not end the feud. They both continued residents of Bass Brook township and each malicious- ly strived to excell the other at scientific and practical farming. The strife for supremacy even went so far that Bill resigned, first taking the precaution to draw his salary up ta date. This last act—the salary act— seems to have softened Bill’s heart toward his old-time enemy. When John’s horses broke out of the past- ure and came to town,.contrary.to the statutes in such case made and pro- vided, what did Bill do? Arrest those horses? No. Bill didn’t do that. He kindly took those nags to his private barn and cared for them tenderly until John showed up to take the said strays away. Bill -YSIM PUB PETTIOJoI s,ey yey} serepop ed to return good for evil. He says he would be willing to put John in the barn to keep him iffromYrunning at large. Now Bill and John are friends. Evangelistic Meetings A. J. Hollingsworth, assisted by J. G.

The town was quiet over Sunday and all day Monday everybody went wild while the two hotel barbers were away— Frank McMahon and Joc Violette (The latter better :known as Grubhoe Joe). Somehow the rum- or got jout that they had left for parts unknown and Carter started east on their suspected trail. He got as far as Graai Rapits when word reached him that the boys had arriy- ed home. He chartered a special con- veyance from Red Tom and hurried to their bedside.
