Pembina people will regret to learn
that F. c. Warner has been appointed
agent at Grand Forks. The change
means less strenuous life to Mr.. War
ner, in that the clerical duties there will
not be So exacting as here and he will
have more outdoor work. As Mr.. War
ner has not been in the best of health for
some time this change will be agreeable
to him. On the other hand. Mr.. Warner
has proven SO capable, efficient and pop
ular at this station, where the duties are
more onerous and important, owing to
the customs work than at many larger
points, that Pembina people had come to
look upon him and his family as perma-
nent fixtures and the change will take
them as disagreeable surprise. Mr..
Warner has considerable valuable prop
erty interests here and farms in the vici-
nifty of Macarthur. The transfer to Grand
Forks will occur the coming week, but
the family will remain some time longer.
w. c. Shoemaker, who has been Mr..
Warmers able second will be promoted

ministers Of this locality are forming
combination, whereby they can keep
Judge Wallace from marrying so many

their legitimate business and it must
stop. They have looked into the matter
and find it would not interfere in any way
with interstate commerce laws, and just
now are on the fence whether to incor-
porate under the lawsof New Jersey or
Bruce County. Until the matter has
been definitely settled presume Judge
Wallace will continue to tie knots with

THEY STILL LOOK ALIKE.
Amusing Case of the Man Who Had
Double.

D0uDte.
ssI have sometimes been taken for
another man, said a Milwaukee busi-
ness man, "but when a woman rushed
out Of her house one day under the
impression that I was doctor, and
called me IN to see her sick baby, that
was the limit. I knew, Of course, just
as soon as she called me doctor whom
she thought she was addressing, and
to carry out the joke I went with her.
The baby had rather a bad attack Of
Group, but [ had experienced such
cases in my own family and knew
what to do. So I wrotea prescription
for her, told her how to administer
the medicine, and said I would look
in again in the evening. When I
drove along the street in the evening
I Wentin and found the child all right.
The mother was very happy at the re-
suit and [ could see no good reason
for informing her Of her mistake.
One day, long time after, friend
who met me with the doctor remarked
that we looked very much alike, and
that the manner Of wearing our boards
the same way was probably response
bic for much Of the similarity. Ithen
told the story Of how Twas once taken
for the doctor and prescribed for
sick child.
And so you were the man. said
the doctor. 7 could not imagine who
had been personating me when
woman came to my office and wanted
to pay me for attending her child, /
told her there was some mistake, as 7
had never been in her house. But she
said she was sure of it, and told how
she had to run out and happened to
see me passing. Finally had to tell
her I never made any charge for such
little thing as that, and since then
i have been recognized as her regular
physician, but it worried me good
deal to think that somebody had been
passing himself off for me-
In another case man aceosted me
on the street and seemed hurt because
I did not respond as cordially. He
called me Charlie and I knew his
mistake, so 7 told him it was a caselof
mistaken identity, but he would not
believe me and thought his old friend
was trying to shake him. nthe next
block 7 met Charlie and told him of
the circumstance, and how the friend
had really felt hurt, so Charlie post
ed off at once to straighten the mat
ter out. The next time I saw Charlie
Il told him that nothing would do but
that one of us must get his face shaved.
I passed along about my business, but
when Issaw Charlie the next day we
both had to laugh. He had justhad a
clean shave and SO had I, and we were
just as likely to be mistaken for each
other as before" Milwaukee Sentir

HE WANTED TO GET OUT.
Fever Patient Who Was Tired Of Dreary
Hospital Life.

The other day Richard Harding
Davis was asked by a aviYacious hostess
to tell some story about the Spanish
American war that was funny and not
gloomy, 'Sfor," said she, 9there must
have been very many amusing Incl
dents also"
sWel," said the young author, re-
fectively, "of course no great tragedy
is complete without its element OF
comedy. I remember particularly
one little incident in the crudely fixed
up hospital tent in Siboney, which
despite its pathos was SO droll as to
bring smile to even the faces of the
boys on the stretehers There was
one young fellow who had been laid
up with bad case Of fever He was
a big, raw-boned, overgroWn fellow,
came from sCiney,' he said, and as he
tossed about from side to side, he kept
telling me that he was restless as
wildcat, tired Of being chained to
blank cot, sick Of being coddled like
a baby, the smell Of disinfectants
made him iller; he was aching not
from fever, but from a longing to get
out into the air with the boys and be
in the fight.
"eCan't you get the doctor to let
me out, Mr.. Davis? he begged, pa
thetieally.

TWO COSTLY CAMERAS.
Metal Work of One Is of Gold Silvea
for the Other.

A London firm of Photographic ap-
paratus makers, during the sojourn Of
the Moorish ambassadors, constructed
q camera for the sultan Of Morocco
at a cost of $40, 500. The instrument
is Of the quarter plate size (34x41)
and differs in no respect as regards the
fittings from the ordinary camera
made by this firm for general pur-
poses. The metal work Of the camera
is constructed Of gold, including the
screws, and also the holders for retain-
ing the plates. The instrument occu-
pied the service of ten men for four
months, the polishing Of the base
boards alone requiring eight weeks
to accomplish. About $50 ounces of
gold have been utilized and the instru-
ment weighs Is pounds instead Of five
pounds, the weight Of the same CAM
era for ordinary use. It is a combina-
ton hand and stand camera with
double extension racking out from
the center and rising front. Another
camera was also made by the same firm
half plate in size-but in this in-
stance silver is employed instead Of
gold for embellishing it. The cost
of the second camera was s., 500. The
sultan of Morocco is stated to be an
expert amateur photographer.-Sci.

He MADE HIM PAY.
Slippery Customer for Once Was Obliged
to Pay Spot Cash.

Some little time ago carrier in the
neighborhood Of Nj was engaged
in removing the furniture Of certain
Well-knoWn man of the district.
As the latter was a notoriously slip
perry customer Mr.. c., the carrier,
personally superintended the unload
ing of the van, with an eye to the i'm
mediate settlement Of his bill on COM
pletion.
Unfortunately he was called away
on urgent business; but he intrusted
the affair to one Of his men, a very
trustworthy fellow.
Understand, BILL he said, ayou
don't come away without the money
on any account
{ Right, said Bill.
When the contents Of the van were
At length safely slowed in the house
Bill approached the man, who had
been fussing about in his keen, alert
way, and demanded payment.
s'Is everything out?' asked the lat
ter, gazing eagerly in the van. 'sAh,
my friend, I can't pay you to-day, be-
cause I haven't got the money-not
a farthing." And he looked at him
with sly triumph at his own mag
ined smartness.
sSYou think you're mighty clever,
don't you?' said Bill, coolly, waiting
till we cleared out; but I reckon you
didn't know what was left under the
sacking there!" and he nodded care
lessly inside the van.
@Ah, what's inside, then?" asked
the man, in quick dismay, darting in.
EsYou!" roared Bill, as he slammed
the door to and dropped the bar, with
q chuckle.
Half an hour later be arrived home.
"Well, Bill inquired his master,
got the money!"
sNo," answered Bill, to his conster-
nation, ssbut I've got the man. .
