UNDER HANDICAP Harriet Beecher Stowe'a Literary Pro ductions Put Out In Face of Some what Adverse Conditional Although the beat work is often produced in the face of difficulties, the obstacles, may sometimes be so ?reat as to prevent work altogether. Harriet Beecher Stowe, for example, was so crowded by her housework that she wrote little till she was fortyJ| She never gave up trying, however, and her sister Catherine, ivho sometimes took dictation in the Stowe kitchen, has left some amus ing accounts of Harriet's efforts at composition. One of those accounts is quoted in "Heroines of Modern Progress." Harriet brushed the flour off her apron and sat down for a moment in a muse. Then she dictated as follows: 'I know my duty to my children. see the hour must come. You must take them, Henry they are my last earthly comfort!'" "Ma'am, what shall I do with these eggshells?" interrupted Mina, the servant "Put them in the pail by you," an swered Harriet. 'They are iny last earthly com fort!"'said I. "What next 'You must take them away. It may be—perhaps it muBt be—that I shall soon follow, but the breaking heart of a mother still pleads, "A little longer, a little longer!"'" "How much longer must the gin gerbread stay in asked Mina.

The citizens had erected a nice bowery where the speaking in con nection with their institute was held. A large audience gathered soon after dinner and both of the speakers who were here the day be iore, Messrs. Hull and Woods, were attentively listened to during their addresses. After that part of the day's pro gram was concluded the crowd re paired to the ball ground and wit nessed a very interesting game be tween Firesteel and Timber Lake. Fox was in the box for the home team and Syverud threw for Fire I steel. Both pitched a very nice game. Following is the line-up of the players and the score by in nings. The score card did not contain a record of hits and errors and they afe therefore necessarily omitted: .Timber Lake. 1 2 3 4 5 0 7 8 8 fW, Firesteel. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a n e 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 A. schwenke, lb. ...oooooooou Kent, l( 1 00000000 ltyken,c(..,......,a,,...o 00000000 Uwcen. ill.....8 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 llalBted. r( 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 V.Mchweuk*.

The month of June has become famous for its plighted faiths, brides and grooms and this week has furnished more than the usual quota of wedding ceremonies, v MAYERHOEFER-FETT.

Fett as having been performed, yet if there is no change in the program they will have been pronouneed man and wife before the paper reaches our readers.

The groom is the junior member and local manager of the Whittier Fett Lumber Company, who is known to everyone in this section of the country.

The town board of trustees have been in session the first part of lire week acting as a board of equaliz ation. Property has been assessed this year at the market value and the total is $241,431.77. As only a few patents have been issued for town lots the/real estate is small, being $8,330. Of course all im provements upon lots where patent has not issued is regarded as per sonal property for the purposes of taxation. The trustees will sit to morrow (Saturday) night as a board of review at which time any person may appear and show cause why his assessment should be in creased or lowered. We understand the board of trustees of the town have decided to have Main street plowed, round ed up and worked down smooth. The matter has been discussed considerably and while there is some opposition to the plan, it i« the opinion of the members of ft# board and a number of others that a good street can be secured in that manner. Several business men have offered to donate liber ally for the purpose of purchasing: and putting crude oil on after the surface has been put in proper shape. While such a program would involve considerable ex pense, a hard, dustless street could be secured and there is a possibili ty that it may be done.
