lately occupied by his captive, his head
aching from tho effects of the blow
and the fall, while tho negro, anxious
to atone for former carelessness,
stalked restlessly about the island.
The adventurers had barely time to
creep under the side Of the barge and
place 1t between them and the freight,
than they heard his step approaching
slowly. Having satisfied himself that
no enemy was in sight, he sat down on
the thwarts of the barge as If he INTEND

the noise fastened to the spot and aided
him to reach the tepee, on the way to

while the sentinel enjoyed the joke at
his expense too much to inquire closely
into the cause. 1t even afforded him
amusement for some time after he re-
turned to his post, to Judge by his con-

Emboldened by success, the adventur-

retaining the other to aid them to es-

to move the barge. Waiting till the
sentiners back was turned, they grasped

pRoBED PROHIBITION.

A Serious Stab Given the North Dakota
Law by the State Supreme Court---Ths
Law Declared Unconstitutional.
JAMESTOWN, N. D., Aug. 22.-Judge
Rose has filed his decision in the Barnes
county original package case. which
was argued last week. The title Of the
case is the State against John Bergreen.
The defendant is an original package
dealer in Valley City. The complaint
alleges that he sold liquor in violation of
section 13 of the prohibition law in sell
ing in original packages, and that under
said law his place was nuisance. An
order was therefore asked restraining
him from further selling. The defense
contended that the statute prohibiting
the sale of liquor in original packages
was unconstitutional when it was en-
acted, and still is a nullity.
Enacted without Authority.
Judge Rose holds that the law when
enacted was unconstitutional. He says
congress having the sole power to regu-
late commerce among the states, and
not having granted power to the states
to legislate prohibiting the importation
and sale of intoxicating liquors at the
time the legislative assembly of the
state of North Dakota enacted the said
act, the state was without authority to
pass the act, and the act was void when
passed and imperative in SO far as it
prohibits the importation and sale of in
toxicating liquors. The judge declines
to pass upon the claim that the law is
still a nullity, for the reason that the
acts complained of were committed
prior to the passage of the Wilson bill,
and hence that law cuts no figure in the
case.
At a meeLang vi 4vV employers at Mel
