Capt. John W. Philip, the command

the Texas participated in the engage
ment off Santiago. in which the Spanish
fleet was utterly destroyed After the
action was ended, he called his crew
and officers to the quarter deck, snd
bareing his head he thanked God for
the almost bloodless victory. Then
turning to his men, he said:
81 want to make public acknowledge
ment here that L believe in God the
Father Almighty. 1 want all you
officers and men to lift your hats and
from your hearts offer silent thanks to
the Almighty.
Three was minute OF deep silence,
and then the ships company broke out
into three hearty cheers for their COM
mander.

while beating his way on a freight
train, is now at the county infirmary.
His home is in Fall River, Mass. He
is improving nicely, but it will take
about four weeks treatment before he

Teegarden Again.

Thursday afternoon Sheriff Marshall
received a telephone message to come
at once to the little village of Teegar-
den. He went and returned to Plym-
outh that night tired and hungry.
A house up in that neighborhood bad
been robbed and two watches and some
clothing were carried away by the
robbers. The Sheriff investigated the
matter but could get no clue to the
thieves.
At the hour of ten that night, just
when he was sleeping soundly, a tele-
phone message from Lapaz came in
notifying him to come at once as the
Teegarden robbers had been corralled
in that town. Mr.. Marshall called up
Carl Reynolds, the liveryman, to get
rig at once. and in company with con-
stable Ira Lower the trio left Plymouth
for Lapaz. Arriving in that city the
sheriff found four hobos in box car
but after a thorough investigation by
the officers they were convinced that
the hobos were not the parties wanted
1t proved to be wild goose chase, and
the officers returned to Plymouth at
three O'Clock Friday morning.
Teegarden seems to be a garden spot
for people who have no regard for the
commandments, as petty thievlng is
reported from that village almost every
week. At this time there is young
man lying in jail suffering from the
effects of terrible gun-shOt wound
which he received while burglarizing a
store in that town. 1t would be good
idea for the people of that little town
TO appoint Gideon Logan a special
officer. The chances are that Gid
would land all thieves that frequent
the place.

A Runaway,

Billy Haslanger, the genial bartender
for John Wolford, is having his fill of
trouble for so early in the week. On

misfortune to have runaway near the

being injured last Monday

Wants Legal Advice.

The young man who was shot while
trying to burglarize the Teegsrden
store and who now languishes i'll the
county bastile nursing the wound re-
ceived at the hands of Gideon Logan,
sent for Martindsle 81 Stevens Monday.
He wanted some legal advice. To a
man up tree, it would appear that a
"plea of guilty" would be about the
proper thing where an offender is caught
in the act.

The program commenced sharp at 2:::3O

twelve members answering to the
quotations from Lowell. A current
event from Mrs. SwanstOn on the sub
ject "Warship Maine" was discussed.
Mrs. Thorson gave the biography of
Lowell and followed with a description
of her visit to Westminster abbey.
Both were very instructive and enter

of washington Irving in his home'
and Mrs. McClory read the selection
'The Holy Grail" dwelling on Incl.

charming legend. At 4 O'Clock a limit
ed number of invited guests arrived
to listen to an able address by the
Rev. G. Turner, who took for his topic
Europe in Dread" The eloquent
speech furnished much food for
thought and reference. Later the
guests repaired to the dining room
where a dainty lunch was served BY

decorated in white and yellow bands

War on Cigarettes.

George Vannier, Jr., who is well
known In this city, is now u resident
Of Euclid, Mimi, a small town near
Crookston and holds the honorable
office of justice of the peace. There is
9 ruction in the village over tho en-
forcement of tho tobacco law and
recently a dozen or SO youngsters,
ranging in age from II to Is years,
were arraigned before Judge Vannier
and examined as to their habit of
smoking cigarettes. The testimony
developed the fact that Henry Karst,
the keeper Of a temperance saloon,
had supplied the boys with the "coffln
nails' and he was accordingly assessed
$40 and costs. Then MI. Karst pre-.
ferred o similar charge against Judge
Vannier. The allegations must have
been proven, as the latter vas also
assessed $40 and costs. Thus far
honors arc even OH both sides and il is
probable that the trade in cigarettes
will show Il considerable diminution in
the future.

Dedicated to the Major.

Jos. B. Stoeser tells the D. l.. !. O. he
never lost any wood from his pile
until the b. ps., were stopped. Does
that imply, Josef, that the piggers
now have to steal their wood because
they can't sell intoxicants any more

What a foolish question. A man of
Major Edwards standing and ability,
one who has drank us much whisky as
mo doubt) Major Edwards has, surely
ought to know that a blind pigger
does not have to steal wood to keep
warm in Jail, but it does not matter
how much whisky some men drink,
they can't always be brought to see
things in their right light.

Want. to Plead GUILTY.

Grand Forks correspondence OF st.

This was the somewhat unusual re-
quest contained in q letter to United
States District Attorney Bangs, written
by . prisoner at Devils Lake. The
mans name is Ora Rouple, and he is
held on the charge Of stealing govern
ment property from the abandoned
Fort Buford. It appears that since
the sort was abandoned by the depart
ment, the settlers have got into the
habit OF helping themselves to any
thing about the buildings that they
desired. Rouple was arrested for this
offense, and was held to the United
States grand jury. He w.ote to Mr..
Bangs, freely admitting his guilt. He
said that he and u companion ha1gone
to the fort and taken some doors, and
that the other man succeeded inevadinR
arrest. He was required to 60 to jail
in default Of bail, and said that he had
an aged father whom he had supported.

man would get along. He begged that
he might be sentenced rs soon as
possible. MI. Bangs wrote that he
would hasten matters as much as pos
sible.

A Suspicious silence.

wa SsASsH\Ss
There Is a suspicious silence now ut
Grand Forks concerning the move
ments of a certain gang" whose on
istence, we have been led to believe, is
a serious menace to the best interests
Of tho dear people. The Herald has
dismissed this subject, of such vital
Importance to its numerous readers,
with an abruptness that Is uncommon,
to say the best. The Normanden and
other lesser lights throughout the
state have taken their cue with ex.
traordinary promptness, and "mum's
the word" all along the line. Has then
that dangerous element-the gang
ceased to exist, or has it simply gained
OH accession to its ranks powerful
enough to silence all this clamor?
Unless we receive u satisfactory an.
swer to this question, we shall be com.
PEELED to put down all this hue and
cry of the past year denouncing a
corrupt ring, as SO much humbug used,
not to warn and arm the people, but to
gull them. Beware Of the "reformer'
who employs the alarm and resentment
Of the public for the sole purpose OF
gaining his own selfish ends.-Hills.
