nick and Louis Rupp will open a
meat market in Breckenridge.
Louis has spent most Of the winter
in the east, but returned the other
day, and this is the result. Gus has
the past several months been in
w. H. Wizards shop, and, by the
way, has been the most desirable
man Mr.. Willard ever had there,
which fact is an indication that lie
and Louis will make a strong team
when fully opened and under way
n. e. Rice, brother of D. Z. Rice
Of this city, now has sort of
grocery store, with meats in the
rear at Breckenride and is a first
class young man, doing good bust
ness, and is now having new store
building put up. But we presume
the two firms, when opened, will
have enough to do. At present
Wahpeton has too many butcher
shops by about half, and has enjoyed
quite little trade from Bgecken-
ridge, but the new shop opening
there and the enlargement of the
one already there, will likely retain
the most of its own trade. How
ever, The TIMES wishes all the BOYS
success.
Micheal Churnich, saloon keeper
at MOoreton, was before Justice
Gray this week on u charge of as
sault and battery on the person of
one Mr.. Stack, having beaten, it is
said, Stacks head and face full of
glass from beer glasses. W. Z.
Purcell and Chas. e. Wolfe appeared
for the defendant and P. J. McCum-
Der for the prosecution, District
Attorney Lauder being out of the
city. 1t was Il jury trial, and Chur-
mich was acquitted. We heard very
little of the testimony, but are of
the opinion that the jury should
have found him guilty. We think
this would not only have been in
keeping with the facts, but been a
proper step toward closing up a
place that ought not to be allowed
to run, the county commissioners
having undertaken to revoke his Ii
cense. Mooreton is gaining a very
bad reputation for drunkenness and
fighting, with the general indica-
tion that things are run very loose
ly there. 1t is said that Churnich
has two wives ut Mooreton, but is
unable to live with bus one Of them.
Wife No. taking but precious lit
tie stock in him, although she fol-
lowed him from Germany there and
found him married to wife No. 2.
But aside from these facts and many
others, Churnich was not justified
in pounding Stacks head and face
full of glass from four beer glasses,
with the excuse that he wanted to
prevent a fight in his saloon. Such
acts and excuse is logical with
vengeance. The truth is, there are
people in and about NIooreton who
would like to see order and proper
management Of affairs. Between
the two, they should be respected.
However, the verdict was no soon
er rendered than a new charge was
preferred, that Of assault with q
dangerous weapon and Churnich
gave bail in sum Of $500.

A DroIi Dance or Cranes.

and then lay and watched them. Itwas
the most comical sight to see them
waltz around, slide up to each other and
hack again. their long necks and legs
making the most clumsy motions.
With little stretch OF the imagination
one might see smirk on their faces,
and suspect them Of caricaturing human
beings. There seemed to be regular

Horssmsnship OF this Arab.

The Arab looks very well on horse
back, though he might not altogether
suit the taste of the shires. His saddle
is generally red, peaked before and be-
hind, and placed upon several colored
felt saddle clothes; the stirrup broad
ems out SO as to give wide space for
the foot TO rest on; it is pointed at the
corners, thereby enabling the rider to
tear the horses ribs even without the
aid OF pointed stick or Q steel spear
like spur which he often pushes in be-
tween his slipper and the stirrup side.
The Arab soldier, with his white burn
ous f1uttering behind him, his high red
saddle and saddle clothes, his knees
high and body bent forward, with his
long silver mounted gun fiourishing in
the air, looks, as he gallops forward in
cloud Of dust, the very embodiment OF
the picturesque, exultant war spirit OF
past ages, not sobered down by scientific
formulas for murder, but free to carry
out his own bloodthirsty purposes with
as much swagger and ostentation as
possible.
As a horseman believe the Arab to
have an excellent seat but an execrable
hand; he loves to keep his beasts head
high in the air, and so he ceaselessly
joggles at the Bit upon which he always
rides. until one wonders how the
wretched brute can safely put his feet
down; yet he does somehow. No one
rides camels in this country, but the sui
tan is said to have some very fleet drom-
edarics capable Of doing marvellous
journeys, and, OF course, in those parts
of Morocco which merge into the Sa-
hara the camel is indispensable. The
Barbary donkey is short-legged, long
suffering, indispensable beast. 1t is easy
to comprehend the ass existing without
Tangier, but it is impossible to conceive
Tangier existing without the ass; his
patient little body bears every possible
burden, from the foreign minister's
wife, for example. who sits upon the
pack with great dignity. and, pre-
ceded by her Moorish soldier. pays calls
upon other ministers wives, to the
latest thing in iron bedsteads to be sold
in the public market.-Cornlill Maga-

Is undoubtedly good, but in this country
we have not the laboratory for such
work, and we have not the money to
get such laboratory. OF course Pas
teur has lost some cases. but the same
happens in smallpox. There may be
something in the patient or in the inocu-
lation. S,me Of the Russians died be-
cause such a. length of time had elapsed
between the time they were bitten and
their inoculation. -
But there are many well-defined cases
of genuine protection afforded by this
inoculation where people were bitten
by really hydrophobic dogs. There are
many people who have received the
treatment simply because they were
afraid. These are not included in the
official statistics; between 200 and 800
were excluded from the July statistics.
The majority OF the doctors, and espe.
cially the influential ones, are with Pas.
teur. but others are making systematic

Europe's Smallest State.

The smallest state in Europe-six
square kilometres-is the territory Of
Moresnet, between Verviers and Aix-la-
Chapelle. 1t contains rich zinc mines.
which are worked by the Societe de Ia
Vieille Montague. In 1915 commission
was appointed to fix the boundary line
between Prussia and the Netherlands,
which was agreed upon on every point
save as regards Moresnet. Each coun-
try claimed the zinc mines, or an ade-
quate indemnity. It was finally resolved
to consider the miserable tract of land,
which contained only squalid buts near
the mines, independent and neutral.
Since then the condition OF the territory
has greatly changed. 1t contains at
present 800 houses, nice, well-stocked
shops. and the inhabitants are quite well
to do. The territory has remained neu-
tral. and is patriarchally administered

have eighteen miles to the County
Seat, and when compelled to go there
on Court or other business, we
