WHEN Mrs. Riel, who resides q few
miles out of Winnipeg, heard of her hus-
bands sentence she became frantic and
fled from her house to the woods, where
she hid. She was only partially clothed,
and in her bare feet, and was nearly dead
when found by her friends. So terrible
is the shock she may never recover her
reason. A great deal of sympathy is
felt for her and her children, and a sub

Seeming A SIaver.

Many years ago, when slavery was
the rule and not the exception, vessels
running a cargo were extremely clever
in eluding capture and putting their
p%ursuers off the scent. A good story
is told of the Observation-Disclosures, 1
think-going out of Simon's Bay bound
to the Mauritius. When off Cape
Hangklip. late one afternoon, a very
rakish, suspicious-looking craft was
sighted, carrying an unusual number
of staysaiis and studdingsails. who up
on seeing the man-of-war hoisted Span
code and requested to be reported.
She passed quite close, and was ap-
parently q passenger ship of about 500
tons burden, for as she neared them
about a dozen ladies, in very smart
bonnets, wells, and parasols, were OBJ
served to come on deck and wave their
handkerchiefs with every demonstra-
ton of cordiality to the officers of the
flagship. She seemed also to have a
large crew and was very clean and
smart. Suspicion was quite disarmed,
and she was logged as a passenger ship
from Manila to Cadiz. The Admiral
was alone in his opinion that all was
not right, remarking that the ladies
waved their pocket handkerchiefs un-
commonly long and vigorously to a
mere passing ship; he also thought the
handkerchiefs unusually large, and fur
Their he mentioned that as she passed
he was looking out of the door in the
stern gallery, and a faint, curious whit
came down on the wind, reminding
him of something long past. He could
not remember for q moment of what it
did remind him, but it suddenly oc-

the faint passing odor, Us the strange
vessel swept by, recalled the smell of a
slave ship which he had navigated into
port years before. And he was right.
This same vessel was taken, Off the
Havana, on her subseqent voyage,
and proved to have been a Spanish
ship from Fernando, Veloso River, in
tho Mozambique Channel, full of slaves
for Cuba. Her Captain explained with
delighted pride his meeting with the
flagship off the Cape. and how, seeing
8 large man-of-war bearing down upon
him with the certainty of capture and

The country newspaper is the most

newspapers, towns are, as a rule, thrift
less and dead. 1t is common for small
great men to speak with contempt of
the local newspapers, but the village
newspaper makes more great men out
of less material-more bricks without
straw-than any other factor in politics,

Towner Comfy Tribune.

The usually correct Darlington News
is mistaken in saying that "tinal proof
and contest notices issued from the Dew
ills Lake land Office have been confined
to n paper, the INTER-OcEAN." The
legitimate newspapers of Benson, Tow
ner and Rolette counties 1.-THE only coun-
ties in the district, besides Ramsey, IN
which newspapers are published} all
have their share, which a glance attheir
advertising columns will show. Neither
has an excessive price" been charged.
Five dollars is the regular price charged,
which is less than the statutory fee for
legal advertising, and the inevitable loss
has run up in some cases to 25 per cent.
Reputablejournals like the News should
be a little careful in repeating the UNI
substantiated accusations of eminently
eligible candidates for the penitentiary
against public officials. A newspaper
man has his hand upon the throttle of
engine capable of doing more harm than
it can repair, and he should not allow
his personal Or political prejudices to
prevent him from doing justice to all.

NE WANTS TO KNOW.

Editor Inter. Ocean - DEAR SIR: Ny
curiosity may seem to you a little mis-
placed, but nevertheless / demand that
it be gratifed, and with your permission
I will relate its tenor, viz: I wish to
know from what source, or rather from
what tradition, you call this most flour
ishing and highly respectable town by
the name of Devils Lake. 1t must have
some strong cause to haze got it that
name, and unless you, or parties more
acquainted with the facts, give me q
sound and ineligible reason for its
christening, l, who have powerful influ-
epce at the G.. L. o., Washington, shall
request its name to be changed at once.
Yours sincerely, LORD SQUIRM.
MI. Squirm car be answered in a very
few sentences. A year and a half ago,
when the name was changed to Devils
Lake, the INTER-OcEAN cited as q reason
therefor hat the Manitoba road had
spent thousands of dollars advertising
the great Devils Lake region. 1t was
the determination of the railroad COM
pany, long before a board was hauled or
a nail driven in our town, to make this
principal point on the western extern
sion of the line. The company had ex-
ahmed the location and the lake, and
experience taught them that this must
necessarily become the great summer
resort of the northwest, being v more
beautiful and picturesque than the eel.
ebrated Minnetonka. Hence the orig
inal intention of the company was to
give this place a name which should be
known to all and forgotten by none. In
other words, it was determined that the
railroad name should be Devils Lake,
no matter what the citizens might call
the town as a corporation.
In point of wide spread notoriety, it
must be admitted that no better name
could have been chosen. Devils Lake
had been advertised throughout Chris
tendon while yet the iron horse was
fifty miles away. Today the name is q
familiar word to more millions than
there would have been thousands to
know it by the title of Smithsville or
Jonesburg. When the proper time
came the land office and the postofice
we're changed to conform with the rail.
road name, and Devils Lake became
our permanent trademark.
We can we'll afford to have strangers
ak u why We call it Devils Lake, if the
strangers will only come-and they are
coming. squeamish people must moi
be 70 wicked Is to think of Devils Lake
with IN ~sposrophe q. It does not be
long to the devil. II it did we should
