The concert given Monday even

Chicago, under the auspices Of the
Royal Neighbors, was the most
classical musical treat ever given
in Devils Lake. But very few of
our citizens did not have the plea

Sisters during the Chautauqua

given them Monday evening was
proof positive that the golden
opinions then won are still worthily

very pleasantly responded without
any of the old stereotyped excuses,
making themselves more than ever

Piled 1t on the PrInccss.

In China it is etiquette to regard one
as older than he or she really is. When
the Prince and Princess Henry of
Prussia visited Shanghai, they met n
notable mandarin, one of whose first
questions to the prince-this being an
invariable matter of Chinese politeness
was:
How old are you?'
"a little more than &c." answered the
prince. smiling.
'Indeedr said the mandarin. "Your
highness appears 80"
The mandarin then turned to the in
terpreter-Herr Voight, n German
and inquired the princess age. She
answered, "Thirty-two." The inter-
prefer interpreted. and the mandarin
made a remark in Chinese evidently in
tended to be complimentary. The in
terpreter blushed uneasily and hesitat-
ed to translate the remark The prince
saw the difficulty and laughingly COM
manded:

A Womnn,n Whim.

She was n woman who made a prac-
tice of being always amiable to the
clerks in the shops. and there was one
dry goods shop where she had traded
for many years, and the clerks were
like old friends. But there were some
business changes, and n new firm made
offers to the clerks who had been so
long with the old firm that the woman
had patronized, and they, almost to n
man and woman, left. The lifelong
patron of the shop was much incensed
at this. 1t was not fair or right, she
said, and In fact almost dishonorable.
So one day when she made n first
visit to the new shop one of the old
clerks who knew her well stepped for
ward to speak to her after the old cor
dial fashion But. no. this mildest
hammered of women turned her head
away with a cold stare and passed on
without recognition She could not be
cordial to any one who had acted so
disbonorably. No explanation is Of

new shop. 1t may have been just out
OF curiosity. or course one can shop
where one pleases--New York Times

nouncing Governor Shaw for appoint

Heavy Failure at ST. Petersburg Likely To
BE Widespread in Effect.

London, Aug. 25.-The Leader pub
fishes n dispatch from its st. Petersburg
correspondent, saying that the sus-
pension of NJ. Nonderweiss, million
aire of that city, has produced a de-
pressing effect on the bourse and in
financial circles. His capital was esti-
mated to have been between so 900, 900
and 100000 900 roubles, but after his
debts are paid he will scarcely have
5000. 900 roubles left. His fortune was
largely sunk in a group of undertake
ings, each one supporting the other He
regarded one of the most important
systems of railroads in Russia as his
own, and he was connected with this
road and with a number of steamers

sea, a machine factory. an insurance
company, a cement factory and num-
