Mr. Lund had a widoa. afatrr who
was still living In her oi l homo, and
with Borne persuasion he induced her

good home 'Air the daughter of Mr.
Latimer.
It was wl.th a jojtful 'heart that Ur.
Latimer r'jcelwd ttiia gtwd Dews. His
emotions had bebiuyed '-hliu. It told
to plain ly of tSaelorribla buttle; he wan
fighting. It was indeed a great tacri
Bee to I dufirtwrt nf the society of his
enly cliild. Bitt this ke would under
go, for the. love of woman, regardless of
the fu tune weTfiire of tils daughter. No
wonder Mr. "Latiiw rejoiced In the
good fortune lie haduiiet, with in ilnd
Ing a. mmfortuble home tor his child.
LIUittdid ke tliinli though when he
underwent'the ttpinU'H uf.purtlng with
Ills beikived child, -when he had to re
move the little arum that were en
twined uliout hk neck, liy force, and
leave hor weeping, with a broken,
bturt Jlttle did he think when he lust
heard those criea of ugony tbtit aluioet
tore hiHiheui't utringH aHUuder, that he
was parting with her perhapa forever.
If he uould have seen what wan in store
for bin child, In future, II he could
have mien the great trouble that was to
be here, if he could have ueen the still
greator trouble that i yet to come to
thiKonce bright, Inuocentaud loveable

draw Mian unto her regardless of the
power of other ties, and an i ton often
the ease only to spurn advances of af
fection in after years.
It living just after the great financial
ptuile of 1878, Mrs. Young, Mr. Lund's
sister, -wus .unable .to .dispone of her
I
i
homestead, consequently Mr. Lund,
j with the additional expense oil his
haudt, soon found that he would be
unaJjlc to.maintaiu his daughter at a
hoardlng.Bchool as was hie desire. To
add to Jill) already troubled mind, be
was forcibly reminded of Uncle Ned's
predictions, .when hesald, "Mar's Jack,

condiUuu, settled a small. farm ou lils
daughter, .there was no available
meajis. The. farm would barely pay
its own .tanes, and has Dot uutil tbil
day been of any benefit to Edna Lati
mer, and may never be, as the ooudi
lionn stipulated In the conveyance from
Mr, Latimer to his daughter were vlo
lated . J will hereafter give the condi
tions specified, In the deed, and uianner
in which little I'.dnu disobeyed its
uiaudaiea.
While Mr, Lund owned ooubicerable
property' ,iu Kentucky, he was not able
to realiwon It, aud to make natters
worse late jiurcuaaete of his Nebraska
farm wene not able Ao meet the pay

Lund wtmoonipelledio take the farm
back. This left him in a bad fx,

trouble d Mr. Lund, as his highest am
bition was that his daughter should
react), the highest accomplishments,
butti In literature, music and art. The
narelatlnn that had Just dawned upon
torn was another thorn in hl side; it
was that the education and care of
Edna Latimer was thrust upon him.
But he, with bis great, manly heart,
grasped the situation manfully and
resolved that his own daughter should
not have any advantages over his pro
tege. After Mr. Lund looked the situation
thoroughly over and had discussed the
pros aud cons with his sister, it was de
cided to advertise for a competent
tutor, and have the girls educated at
borne; so In a few days the following
appeared In a Chicago paper:

fNOTE. 1 copied the above advertise

lished. I told you attlieeommencenient of

foregoing chapter would have no bearing on
tiie cuse, tint wait and see. 1 promised that
1 would boil this story down, and the short
ness of the chattels prove that 1 am doing
all I can to faltill this promise. 1 was sev
eral years gathering these facts, but I nro-
rise to tell it in less time. If'I seem tedious
will have to ask you to bear with me. if
I fail to interest you, dear reader, it will lie
for lock of ability and not for the lack of an
interesting Btiliject. I am not a novelist and
cannot druw on my imagination, conse
quently I have to confine tn vself to facts as

Sensational poverty:
Development of the! riftwn town

Mumps have closed the jaws of a

the "Alliance plan" for the masses.
The only jaws to escape are "tbe jaws
of death" (and a few family jaws).
The birch or (s)witch hazel is once

Hutton.
The Hon. James Brown gave a free
entertainment in the form of a magic
lantern show, last week, to the elite of
this place. He has many pictures that
are easily recocnized one bears a
strong resemblance to Lebanon's ac
commodating P. M.; another to the
Waterloo Kecoroer at his duties.
There seems to be a strong feeling In
Dist. 66 of burning a prominent county
official in effigy. His arduous duties
cause him tn make four changes in
said district in less than a year. Pro
vided tiie other districts are favored
with his aid in like manner, school
teachers will be above par next year.
The judges and clerks of election
have been appointed by the Town
Council, and the first Monday of De

and honorary offices in Waterloo.
Waterloo is original if nothing else.
One of our esteemed denizens wrote to
prominent public servants throughout
the state, informing them that 15 fam

of said 15 families he spent it for purple

back.
The mystery deepens as regards the
factory ghost. Those posted claim tn
have seen a shadowy form flitting to
and fro among the spindles, and
vaguely hint at strange noises groans
and screeches (emanating from the
jacks no doubt). Mr. H. performs bin

at mention of his ghostship.
