Heavy Penalties for Selling Articles Of

The following law was passed at
the last session Of the Missouri leg
islature, taking effect Aug. 20, 1899:
Section /. That it shall he unlawful
for any person or corporation doing
business in this state to manufacture,
sell or offer to sell any article, COM

meanor and shall, upon conviction, be

come a part of the road fund of the
county in which such fine is collected.

Can't keep North Dakota in the
background. Jacob Yeager of
jamestown was a playmate in Switz-

were both boys. Dreyfus was in the
habit Of spending his summers in
Switzerland.
Col. A. w. Kimball, U. S. A. quar-
termaster at New York, was an ar
rival in the city today, accompanied
by Mrs Kimball. Col. Kimball is an
uncle Of Mrs. w. II. Winchester, and

Winchester.
Colonel Treumann says that in his
opinion all of the officers and most Of
the men would re-enter the national
guard on their return to the state and
at the next ,encampment a large per-
centage Of those who served in the
Philippines would be present. About
the only thing that Colonel Treumann
regrets in connection with the service
is that the regiment was not allowed
to go out with full formation so that
a place could have been found for
Colonel Peake.
Mrs. NJ. Fl. Jewell has been selected
as custodian Of exhibits that may be
entered by the Bismarck and Bur-
leigh county ladies at the state fair
at Mandan. Specimens of fancy
work, etchings and paintings will be
carefully protected and returned to
the owners Immediately after the fair.
Last year the Bismarck ladies secured
something like twenty-five prizes and
it Is hoped for the credit of the capital
city that interest in the enterprise will
not lag this year.
Melvin Henry, q discharged North
Dakota volunteer, writes President
Worst of the agricultural college that
he intended to stay in the Philippines
and engage in business, but says Cen
eral Otis would not permit him. He
tells it in this languages: Oh, yes;
General Otis would be very pleased
to have me remain with them, pro-
vided I would go into government en-
ploy, to drive mules or Cinnamon.
Could I get a license to start a legiti-
mate business concern? No sir. we
are not giving licenses to discharged
soldiers; a Spaniard, Englishman. Ger
man, Chinaman or niger can get a
license, but a. discharged soldier. oh,
no! Re-enlist or get off the island!'
This does not seem exactly square.

shall start for home. They have
been active for so long that this en-
forced idleness is becoming irksome
and they r getting anxious to re-
sumo their old places in civil life once
more. The more the scandals in the
other returning regiments are aired,
the more the North Dakotans rejoice
that no dissentions found their way
into their camp. The men speak in
the highest terms of their officers and
the officers are unanimous in declar-
ing that there was not in the whole
Eighth army corps another as fine q
body Of soldiers as the one they COM
manded.
