The Air Ship Arrived Here
LastNight and Was Seen by
Many Citizens.

h 1t il almost impossible to give the
fnutmes Ot all our citizens who wit.
4 messed the flight vi the mysterious
Iairship il this vicinity last night
! 1t was expected here ut about 93''
!, but u majority III those vii" saw II
EcIaim that they first sighted 1t about
0:3O, and there are different stories
told about the direction IN which IT
| was going. which gives strength to
The sus piciun that there was Il whole
fum lly Ut air ships In this vicinity.
However,, u majority OF those
claiming to have seen the SHIP, state
! that it came from the north west,
.crossiug the river below the dam
going southeast. 1t was moving at
a rapid rate, and nothing but lhe
several culured lights and the
shudowy outline Of the great
| machine were visible to the naked
eye.
Attorney Z. 5. Smith was one of
those who Witnessed It's passage
over the city, but he could distin-
guish no, thing hut the lights. which,
he SAWS. were Of several different
culurs.
l. Van Hecke, III the Interstate
Milling company, undoubtedly OBJ
tanned a better view Of it than any
other person in the city. He was
awaiting it's arrival with u powerful
field glass. lie claims that 1t was 4
large machine, very much in appear
ance like a huge butterfly. His
description Of 1t tullies very closely
with the iIluetra ton In the st. Paul
Globe. Van did not discover the
! ships prupelling power, but saw
sonnet ing resembling the fans Of Il
wind mill. which he thinks, were
responsible for it's rapid flight over
the city. Others claim to have seen
these mysterious lights over the
suut heustern part III the city. and
! some claim to have seen them over
| the northern portion.
There il also rumOr around
town that DR.. Nero. Billy Erwin,
and VIM. Furde were flying large
kite with Chinese lanterns attached
at about that time. This rumOr,
cannot lie verified, however. but
those young gentlemen were not
about their usual huunts last night,
and 1T is possible that the airshiu
mystery might he explained Oy
them.

When a person begins to grow
thin there Ia sOmothing wrong. The
waste is greater than the supply
and it il only a question OF time
when the end must come.
In nine cases out OF ten the trouble
is with the digestive organs. II you
can restore them to healthy con-
dition you will stop the waste, put
on new flesh and cause them to feel
better in every way. The food they
eat will be digested and apprOpri-
ated to the needs Of the system, and
a normal appetite will appear.
Consumption frequently follows u
wasting H bodily tissue because
nearly all consumptives have indi-
gestion. The Shaker Digestive Cor
dial will restore the stomach to a
healthy condition In u vast majority
of cases. Get one Of their books from
your druggist and learn about this
new and valuable remedy.

Duluth Herald. Monday: The
case OF A. D. Davidson. az assignee
for the State bank, against NJ. q.
Hall, formerly president Of that
bank, to recover $1&7OO on notes,
came up before Judge Cantin district
court today, ami it was still ON trial
at noon. The case Is an interesting
one, involving the change of the
State bank to n capitalization oil
$50, ono from $1O0,OW. This was nc
complished by c"ncelling stock to
che amount Of ST., 900 held by NJ. o.
Hall and stock to the amount Of
$1,000 held by Morris Thomas, their
notes in favor Ut the bank being
cancelled to offset the. retired stock.
The assignee claims that this pro-
ceeding was illegal and that it was
not a valid consideration for the
notes, and he sues to recover the full
amount Of those notes. Hall, in his
answer, alleges that the transaction
was legal; that it was made openly
and with the consent Of the stock
holders and at the suggestion and
with the approval of the state bank
examiner. NJ. d. Kenyon.

Dutch Family Discipline.

John Vanderstadt brought with him
from Holland to New Jersey two valu-
able possessions-his wife aud u mahog-
any bureau. The bureau was very big
and old; the wife was little and young.
In America the wife became infected
with the abominable new woman ideas
that have tainted the air Of even New
Jersey. She scolded John for smoking
in her best room. John took time to
ruminate on how to cure her Of tho new
woman notions. The lower drawer OF
the bureau was wide and deep enough
for coffin. On second provocation
John picked up his little wife and
locked her in that drawer. She yelled
and screamed that she was suffocating,
so John had to let her out after only ii
short discipline. She was disobedicnt
and new womanish again before long,
however, and again he locked her in tho
lower drawer. This time he took pre-
cautions to bore some gimlet holes in
the back Of the drawer SO she could get
air.
The discipline worked admirably.
When the disobedient American notions
cropped out, into the bureau drawer lie
clapped her. If he wanted to go away
to work, he did SO, leaving her locked
up and meditating on tho folly and
wickedness of new womanism. II she
cried and called, no matter; nobody
heard her.
But one day neighhor came in and
heard her crying and begging to DO let
out. The neighbor thought it was Il
spook and was terribly frightened, but
the husband came in soon and explained
that it was only little mild family
discipline. John got a startle that will
last him many months, however, when
he was arrested and brought before Il
police magistrate for locking his wife
in the bureau drawer. He could not un
derstand how it was any body's business
but his own. Wasn't the woman his?
The judge asked him to promise not to
do it again.
II won't lock her up again" said
John. Next time she not mind me, I
beat her."
IF you do, you'll go to prison for six
months" said the judge.
Now John Vanderstads is in a more
painfully muddlcd state Of mind than
he was before. He dares not lock Lena
in the bureau drawer; he dares not even
whip her,
