Jacob Tombs died at the county hos
pital at Fargo, from a blow struck by
some unknown person, which fractured
his skull. He was brought in Sunday
from Argusville, and was conscious only
for a few moments, when he told his
name and said he had a wife and family
in Ohio, but refused to give the name of
his assailant, merely saying his pal had
hit him with a scantliug.

Paris Cafe Waters Tale of Wrong.

The Paris cafe waiter has been throwing
himself upon what owing to his failure to
appreciate where the sympathy comes in,
he somewhat fondly hopes may prove a
sympathetic public, with his tale of wrong.
He is, he says, neither paid nor fed nor
slaked by his employer. So far from that,
he pays his employer, and is fain to feed
and slake himself into the bargain. More
over, he pays his employer every morning,
in advance, per cent upon the sale price
of the denominations he has got to work
off in the course of the day. To recOup
himself he must look to his tips, and till
he has been tipped to the amount of 3 shil-
lings, his profits do not begin to run.
When they do begin, however, they must
needs run to something considerable, see
ing that there is brisk competition for
every vacancy in the ranks of his profession.
1t follows, therefore, that it is really the
public who pays all concerned, and the
public is thus likely to keep its sympathy
for itself. OF course, if it withheld its tips
also, the waiter would have to be paid
and provisioned by the cafe proprietor.
But then, the public shrewdly surmises,
the prices % its concentrations would be
put up ard, though tipping might come
into the fashion again, the price would
never como down. 1t naturally prefers the
indirect contribution as it is.-Pall Mall

Tie SALLEN NAPOLEON.
All Had Turned Against Him When He
Finally Left Paris.

1t was stubborn fight with fate that
went on in the gilded Elysian palace in
the street of St. Honore in those bright
days of n Paris June. An emperor was
trying the hard task of ruling his own
spirit; a conqueror was set to the bitter
struggle of conquering himself. Than
this there is no harder task in all the
world, whether for boy or emperor.
And in this fight allies were not to be
depended upon; foes really were friends.
For the first would have tempted the over
powered monarch to stand at bay against
victorious Europe and distressing France.
The others were determined to drive him
from France at all hazards. And in his
case to go was his only safety, though had
he died fighting for his lost crown history
would have given him even greater glory.
Then came the end, when his ministers
set themselves up to be his masters when
those he had most richly rewarded became
his keenest foes; when France refused to
acknowledge as its ruler a man twice over
thrown; when from those to whom he
looked for counsel came only lukewarm
loyalty, false protestations or unwelcome
truth; when from anger at the unreliable
chamber of deputies whom he, like Crom-
well, threatened to turn out "neck and
heels" he would change to indecision 81
lence, even timidity, it was plain there
was but one thing to do.
He did it. On the 22d of June, 1915,
Napoleon signed a second abdication, pro-
claimed his little son, whom Austria had
kidnapped, emperor of the French and
three days later left Paris forever.
He drove to Malmaison, IL miles from
Paris, that beautiful estate half palace,
half villa, which had been the home of the
Empress Josephine. Here Napoleon had
spent many happy hours in his days of
power and prosperity; here Josephine had
died while he was at Elba; here the en-
peror had planned out his greatest cam
paigns, his most glorious victories.

The Terrible CookatrIce.

The explanation of tho origin of that re-
markable organism, the cockatrice, leaves
nothing to be desired rs regards accuracy
of detail We are told that when the cock
is past years old an egg grows within
him, whereat he greatly wonders. We
can we'll imagine the dismay Of any well
conducted masculine bird of that age on
finding himself in such compromising
predicament, but how did he communicate
his feelings to the historian9 That the
embryonic cockatrice had some mysterious
power of self advertisement is evident, for
we hear further that "a toad privily
watches him and examines the nest every
day to see if the egg be yet laid. When the
toad finds the egg, he rejoices much, and
at length matches it, bringing forth an
animal with the head, neck and breast of
a cock, and from thence downward the
body Of serpent. Westminster Review.

TREACHEROUS REDSKINS.
Experience Shows 1t Is Not Safe to Trust
the Indians.

Experience Shows 1t Is Not Safe to Trust
the Indians.
Lieutenant Thomas Cruise was in com
mand Of company Of Indian scouts in the
summer of 1880 in Arizona. They were
White mountain Apaches and had been I'M
der him for over year. Throughout this
period, which was n stormy one for the
Arizona troops, these Indians had been
good soldiers and were faithful to the serv-
ice in shooting down their own race and
showing absolute loyalty to Uncle Sam.
Lieutenant Cruise was often compliment
ed on the spirit which his Indians exhibit
ed, when those under other officers were
constantly proving disloyal. 1t isn't be-
traying q confidence 60 say that Cruso was
q little vain over his redskin cavalrymen,
and he didn't hesitate to give his brother
officers Tip" occasionally as to how to
manage them.
"Just take them into your confidence,
so to speak, Cruise would say land show
them that you have faith in their loyalty"
The lieutenant was thoroughly honest in
giving this advice.
For more than year he has been in
command of these Apaches He fought
side by side with them, shared their dan
gers, ate with them and slept with them,
and they had always been Us true as steel
Not long after Cruise had been giving
pointers about how to manage the Apa-
chos the Messiah craze took hold of the In
dams of Arizona and the old time loyalty
gave way to Indian superstitions. Troop
A stood by Cruise well enough, but he was
too familiar with the Indian character to
mistake the sullen look that showed itself
in the faces of the redskins. He asked
that they be discharged and Mujave In
dams put in their places. This was not
DONE and on Aug. 30, 1881, without a
word Troop A broke away from the Unit
ed States service ard joined the hostiles at
Cibicu creek.
The battle which followed this revolt is
a familiar story in army circles Two or
three days after the unceremoniOus depar-
ture of Troop A, 500 Indians swept down
on two troops of Uncle Sans cavalry, and
it looked for awhile as though there would
be q repetition of the Custer tragedy, but
by daring hcrosm the brave cavalrymen
cut their way through the circling band of
redskins and made their escape with only
ten men killed, though at least "A score
were badly wounded.
"Never trust redskin rs far as you can
throw bull by the tail, " is the way the
lieutenant put it few days later when we
were discussing the tragedy of his former
trusted comrades. -Washington Post.

OH, SWEET

Oh, sweet beneath this tree to lie
And watch with wide injurious eye
The broken glimpses of the sky
And where the sunlight through the leaves
A subtle Pickering broidery weaves,
To hear the low eternal sigh
OF happy winds in tree tops high
Or gnats hung in wavering cloud,
Now far and faint, now near and loud;
Or bees that quickly come and go
On noisy errands to and fro;
To see the swallows far, far up,
Like notes in heavens azure cup;
To lounge and lie with dreamy eye
And feel the world go whirling round,
And half in sleep to hear the sound
OF winds that shake the tree tops high.
