spoke on the missionary work OF the
church. Rev. Rees is an able speaker.
and his exposition of the work that is
being done was instructive and en-
%cOuraging, and one to inspire to greater
efforts.
The several conference committees
that were appointed on the opening
day have been 'busily at work, and
their reports will probably be pre-
sented to the conference tomorrow
morning.
This morning the following class of
practitioners were admitted to full
membership In the conference, after an
examination by the committee of ex-
aminers S. A. Danford, LaNloure; A.
T. Bishop, Cakes; w. H. Gooderham.

L. Macarthur, Abercrombie: w. J.
Showers, Steele, and James N. Taylor,
Tower City. Rev. DanfOrd of La
Moure stood at the head of the class.
The next conference was voted to
Grand Forks. An invitation was pre-
scented from Fargo, but Grand Forks
secured the conference by a vote Of %
to Is. A vote of thanks was ten
dered to Fargo for the invitation. The
next conference will be a lay electoral
conference for the election of delegates
to the general conference and will con
sist of about 200 members.

Warts and HELPLESS Doctors.

The doctors excuse their Incompetence
by declaring that these n%uisances disap-
pear as u child grows older. I profess to
believe them. No one in the household
remembers the historic case of Cromwell,
fortunately. His warts did not vanish.
You SEQ them as plain as his nose on the
mask taken after death preserved at War
wick castle.
And there Is Cicero. Not that he him
self had warts to speak of, though I have
seen that statement in o sohoolbook re-
Gently. 1t vas an ancestor Of his who won
distinction that way, astonishing the Ro-
man public with an excrescence on the tip
of his nose of trefoil shape. Wherefc1o
they called him Cicero (vetch), and the
nickname chung to the family.
It is rather comforting than otherwise to
learn that the heroes and sages Of old were
afflicted with warts. Even the "godlike
Creeks had them, as Lucian tells us in
passing, and their mothers applied to old
women for charms. The doctors were as
helpless then as now, Of course with mora
excuse.-Pall Mall Gazette.

TAX CASE.
kidder County Tax Case Argued Be-
fore the Supreme Court at the Ses-
sion Thursday.

The suit of Kiddcr county against
the Northern Pacific road for the land

Kerr OF the Northern Pacific argued

The Miserable Moors.

Tho lives lived by the Moors are without
perhaps any exception the most ~precarious
and miserable that can be imagined. The
poor man is thrown into prison for sums
he never possessed and can never pay, the
rich to be squeezed Of all he possesses,
while those only can hope to escape who
are members Of families sufficiently pow
erful to arouse the fears of the local gov
ernor should he attempt extortion and not
sufficiently powerful to stir up the jealousy
and avarice of the sultan.
Even the governors of the provinces suf-
fer themselves as they make others suffer,
for just as they squeeze tho agricultufist
and the peasant SO are they in turn squeez-
ed by the sultan and his viziers, and,
should they fail by constant presents t.
maintain a good opinion at the court, they
gan expect only imprisonment and often

INTEREST.
Outsiders Are Interested in the Com
pletion of the Irvine Plant in
This State.

The st. Paul Globe says: Warden
N. T.. Boucher and the board Of prison
managers Of the North Dakota state
prison passed through the city yester-
day on their way to their home in the
%Flickertail state. The party has been
in Chicago for the past ten days pur-
chasing machinery for the new bind
ing Irvine plant for the state prison
authorized by the legislature at it's
recent session. 1t is the intention Of
the board to commence building opera
tons on the new plant Immediately,
although it is not thought the farmers
OF the state will receive any benefit
from it's output until next year. The
construction and equipment of the
plant involves an expenditure of $780,
600, and it will require from six to
eight months to get the buildings up
the factory in operation.
Warden Boucher says the new plant
will give the farmers binding Irvine on
a basis OF 10 cents per pound. as
against IA cents now charged by the
trust. 1t will, however. he some time
before they will be able to get the
price down to a level with that charged
by the Minnesota state prison, as the
difference in freight rates always has
to be figured in when computing the
cost to the consumer in North Dakota.
q have been drawn for q new
building 14OX4O. and contracts will be
let at the next meeting Of the board.
The structure will include an electric
light plant, which will furnish light and
power for the entire prison and the
new binding Irvine plant. which will be
situated on the first second and third
floors Of the building.
While in Chicago the board con-
tracted for a large amount of the ma
chinery necessary to operate the indus
try, but as there is no particular hurry
about the equipment Of the plant the
left several matters unsettled
pending further Investigation. The
machinery necessary for the o~pefatiOn
of the plant is largely controlled by the
trust, and the board will not find as
open a market in Chicago as it would
have liked, but expects to have all the
machinery ready to he put in place as
soon as the contractors turn over the
new buildings. The fiber machinery
Is all held at a very high figure. but
the board hopes to complete the build
ing and put in the machinery within
the limits Of the appropriation.
Our farmers" said Trustee Brad
lock. are taking !: great interest in
the plant, and are looking forward to
inc time when they will be indcpen-
dent of the Irvine trust. 1t is ii mat
ter of regret that we will he unable to
put our product on the market this
year. but the extent of the undertake
ing makes this impossible"

THE CITY OF THE SUN GOD.
4 Syrian Relic of Pagan Worship
md Human Sacrifices.

4 Syrian Relic Of Pagan Worship
and Human Sacrifices.
Baal 'Bck, the city of the sun god, lies
at the foot OF Anti-Lchnnon, in Syria. In
order tu reach it you must ride many miles
over bare brown plain, across ridges hoary
With olive and green with mulberry, be-
tween massive hills strcaked like the zebra.
Suddenly out of the silent fields spring
mighty walls and pillars-giants who lift
their heads into th"ambcr sky. The sight
OF these s%uperhuMnn columns, beside
which the tallest t,rcs look like blades of
grass, fills II with amazelncnt. 1t is not
alone their size and strength and beauty
that inspire wonder, but their very exist
ence In such a solitude, far from the track
Of mankind. We of tho nineteenth CEN
tury-mcck dependents on rail and steam
arc SO in the habit of assOcinting cities
with modern means Of communication
that we are astonished at the presence Of
massive ruins in tho heart Of u valley re
mote from river and sea.
AS we draw neal our wonder grows, for
out Of tho thick grove, whose dark
branches sweep and moan like u troubled
sea around the foot of :imperishable cliffs.
there rise new walls mt new columns,
massive, ornate, stately oven in their heap
ed confusion. This Is the Temple of tho
Sun, a relic Of pagan worship that has
booked unmovcd On the birth and death of
dynastics and faiths. Led as by some
strong cnchantment, VIC pass through the
grove, whose dark avenues, overgrown
with weeds, have echoed with tho shrieks
Of the victims of Baal, lord of the hcav-
ens.
There, in the shadow of that poplar,
may have stood the molten image, the hui
man figure with n bulls head and out
stretched arms, from which children drop
ped into the fiery lap. "Thcy caused their
sons and daughters to pass through tho
fire" "Thcy made themselves molten
images, even two calves, and made n grove
and worshiped all tho hosts Of heaven and
served Baal." 1t is not cnsy to associate
these bloody rites with such splendor oe
design and colossal workmanship, yet it
is beyond dispute shat these walls nave
seen the Worship Of Baal; that here incense
has been consumed in his honor; that his
priests, clothed in rich vestmcnts, nave
trodden these paths; that here mothers
have looked on dry eyed at the sacrifice of
their children, while the screams of tho
burning victims were deadened with flute
and drum.

HORSE PLANT.
Matter Of Horse Canning Discussed by
Stockmen at Dickinson and
Miles City.

At the meeting Of the stockmen Mt
Dickinson and Miles City the matter
Of establishing a factory for canning
horse meat at Medora, where the abat-
toirs Of the Marquis de Mores still
stand, was discussed at some length.
1t is said a stock company is being
formed at Miles City to run the plant
which can be bought for less than what
the lumber in the buildings cost. 1t
Is said that ponies, cayuses and pie
balds from Idaho, Montana and Wash
ington can be secured at as low as 81
each to supply the raw material for the
finished product.

From Fridays Daily. ]

At the Methodist conference this
morning, Bishop E. G. Andrews de-
livered an address to the assembled
ministers. The bishops remarks
were in the nature Of an exposition Of
what the model minister would be, and
his address was that was Of great
benefit to his hearers. The bishop Is
q churchman Of wide experience and
fitted especially for such an address
of instruction and assistance. He is
a fluent talker, impressive and pointed
in his Illustrations, and the address
was me to work much good.

Roasting meuts.

One of the small but essential points in
the roasting of meats often neglected or
not understood by the average kitchen
priestcss Is that hot fat, rather than hot
water, should be used to haste them. Start
the fat Of the roast with a little butter or
good drippings and then depend upon the
juices to continue the process. 1t should
be remembered, too, that all roast meats
need q hot oven to start with. Afterward
the heat should be tempered.
