WAYS OF FENCING.
Two Methods and Their Chief Points OF

Difference.
With the italian method the fencer only
looks to touch his adversary, and to that
end all means are good He runs, jumps
and leaps upon his adversary like tiger,
he fences with his arms drawn back to his
body-in feet, he fences no more, but uses
his foil as ho would dagger When he Is
on the defensive, he performs regular cir
cles with his foil and USES 1t as he would a
cane.
With the Italian method one must have
great quickness of legs, for If the fenoer
attacks you with jump and does not
touch you he will at once jump back
to the end of the room to avoid your re-

allows pupil TO enter into n contest with
anybody until he knows how to make a
frank attack with the arm extended with
out jumping or to parry without running
away. If he enters into contest without
these qualities, he will naturally become a
fencer of the Italian style and find that
his touches are not counted according tc
American rules.
When Il pupil is entering an assault and
is touched by his adversary, he must be
able to tell what kind of an attack he has
made or what attack his adversary has
made on him. Then he becomes good

French method the contest is supposed to
show elegance, quickness and good breed.

Rebekah District Meeting.

A very successful District meeting
of the Daughters of Rebekah was held
in Odd Fellows hall, Tuesday after
noon and evening, October 10Th under
the auspices of Valparaiso Rebekah
lodge of this city.
The local lodge entertained as guests
Mrs. Nellie NJ. Budd, president and
Mrs. Eunice Melville, secretary of the
Rebekah assembly; eighteen deleg ates
from Long praire, four from Brewer
vile, four from Eagle Bend and two
from Little. Falls. Seventy members
were present from the Valparaiso
lodge, Sank Centre.
At three o'clock Mrs. Budd presi-
dent, presiding, called the convention
to order, and the entire afternoon was
devoted to the exemplification of the
work together with the recommended
tions and reports from each lodge rep
resented.
AT $50 p. m. an adjournment was
taken until eight O'Clock, when the
meeting was called to order by the
president in the auditorium and liter
airy and musical program was very
pleasingly rendered. An original
poem with timely reference to the
various towns represented, and the
description given of Brother Harkins'
strong grip, together with the beauti-
full picture lesson that it contained,
was most thoroughly enjoyed. The
addresses of Mrs. Nellie Budd and
Mrs. Eunice Melville of Minneapolis,
president and secretary respectively of
the Rebekah assembly, We're replete
with wise council and good advice and
showed we'll the wonderful power and
magnetism of women as spe akers.
A character recitation wildly pic
turing thrilling scene, showed great
care and dilligent study; also a recita
ton arrange especially for the Order
was charmingly rendered. The instru
mental and vocal music was all very
fine and helped much to maze the en-
tertainment successful.
At the conclusion of the program
all were invited to the banquet hall
where refreshments were served. I'm

the remainder of the evening was
spent in a social hop lasting until the
lights went out. This enc Il one of
the most successful distri teetings
of the year.

the District meeting next year but as
Sank Centre is SO centrally located it
may be advisable to ask Valparaiso

honor she will be glad to receive.

The Howard Case.

The case of J. r. Howard, the Great
Northern claim agent, charged with
bribery, comes up in Wrightcounty on
Oct. %. The Delano Eagle says OF
the approaching trial: Il
If Frank Larabee had The interests
of Wright county and the state OF
Minnesota at heart and not a mere
personal persecution of Howard, Dodge
and the Great Northern, he would
have been willing to assist in the case
against Howard. But his statement
that he would have nothing to do with
the matter unless he were put in charge
only vindicates his desire to wage an
unfair trial. He is vindictive to such
degree that he wants to rule or ruin.
While the Eagle is not shielding
John Howard, the Great Northern, or
anybody else accused of the crime, we
nevertheless want to see the county
interests taken care of in the best pos
sible manner and we believe that the
attorney general of Minnesota with
the information at hand, can bring
about conviction of Mr.. Howard,
if he be guilty, just as readily as could
Mr.. Larabee. All this talk about
Pidgeon trying to shield Howard is
bosh, and great deal OF it simply
malicious talk against the Great
Northern railway. Give the devil his
dues, but remember that simple justice
requires but simple honesty and fair

The rainy weather this summer has
done this county one good turn in kill
ing off the Russian thistles. John
Hanrahan says that while it took him
three weeks to destroy these pests in
the township of Glenwood two years
ago, it only'required three days to
cover the same ground this year. The
reason is that the thistle plants have
rotted at the roots and died before
reaching maturity, so that they will
produce no seeds this year. If the
same conditions exist all over the
county little care each year will suf-
flee to keep the thistle from again
getting much of start, and it be-
hooves township supervisors to watch

According to the Brooklyn Eagle,
Billy Phyle, one of the crack pitchers
in the western league and the boss
twirler of the ST. Paul Club has been
drafted by Brooklyn, and will play
in the national league. Phyle and
Manager Comiskey had a slight mis-
understanding at the close of The sea-
son, and as result, it is more than
likely that Phyle will be transferred.
1t is a good thing for Phyle and he
would probably have gone there very
soon in any event.

In the opinion of a good many

inside organizations-and the tenden-
cy is to constantly increase the num-
Der, with constant increase of con-
ventions and gatherings for all sorts

Says the Cooperstown, N. Y, Free-

everywhere. A vast amount of energy

ing up organizations, which could
be more properly spent for the pur-
poses for which the organizations
were intended.

brought 1920, and another brought
$50 head. The Herald very peril
nently remarks: &c. B. Wilson and
M. B. Lamb, of Ulysses, Neb., bought
these cattle and some 250 head more
which were driven over from Alexan-
dria and Morris and shipped from
Glenwood to Nebraska, where they
will be fattened for the market, most
of the calves and yearlings being kept
over the next year. If it pays these
gentlemen to hire someone to travel
around and buy cattle, ship them to
Nebraska, hire them wintered and
ship them again to market, why should
our farmers not find it profitable to
fatten them?

SYNOPSIS.

The Able Morellet, cure of the village
of Yvette, while on journey TO Paris
with his valet and groom, meets with a
stranger adventure in the wood of st.
Cloud. First, three masked horsemen ap-
proach and, addressing the priest as the
lord bishop of Blois, despite his protests,
warn him of the witches that haunt the
wood. A little farther he finds himself in
the midst of strange company-a band
OF devils. dwarfs and other hideous crea-
lures, all dressed in scarlet, with a scar
let witch at their head. The abbes ser
wants take flight. The able, thinking they
are a lot of masqueraders, makes bold to
address them. In reply they repeat every
word he says, calling him the lord bishop
of Blois. They say that he must suffer-
and the punishment agreed upon Is that
he must buy a supper at the House of the
Scarlet Witch. He is blind-folded and,
when he can again see, he is In q room en-
tireiy draned in scarlet, and seated at a

she Is the friend of all the neer-do- wells

and he can do nothing with her on this
account. The king Is away now, and will
return on the morrow, and he hopes to
get Corinne within the convent walls be-
fore she can appeal to the king. In spite
of his haste, however, he determines to
appease his hunger at this rich spread I;

At this the Corsican withdrew and
went down stairs to the supper table.
The scarlet masks Of the company were
all laid aside now, and the suppers no
longer ate fish made of bread crumbs,
on the contrary, they were very merry
over flagons of rare, red wine and COB
let's of champagne and trout from the
Lake OF Geneva, and dishes Of carp's
tongues and sturgeon and mullet and
legs of venison and fat capons. When
they saw the officer they cried out joy
fully and hastened to ask how the Able
did
"Grimod, Grimod, what does he say,
what does he do, oh, tell us quickly
we die with impatience-you have
news, Grimod?"
The Corsican held up his hand for
quiet. Then, addressing the scarlet
witch, whose fresh and piquant face
belied her role, now that the mask was
laid aside, he said:

Able asks for your

Corinne clapped her pretty hands.
"Oh!' she cried. "how 1 love him.
