Powerful War Auto Car.

MeSSrS. NickPrS. Sons * Maxim have
ordered from the inventor. Mr. Fred,
erick Simms. an experimental armor
protected road and rail motor car, says
the New York Herald. This car was
formally exhibited by Mr.. Simms on
the terrace of the Crystal palace, Lon
don. Mr. SimmS has designed really
powerful motor carriage, with Il frame
suited 10 support the weight of heavy
armOr protection. This frame is rec
tanguLaT and constructed Of heavy
steel channels. Careful study has been
given in order 10 combine i'll the ma
chine the greatest strength with the
minimum of weight. The idea is that
the car should he substa tial enough
to support if necessary weight OF
twelve tons, but il is not anticipatcd
that il will often he called upon to car
ry more than six tens. The engine
which supplies the motive power is Il

drOcarhOn engine of the Daimler type

ignition ana timing gear. The fuel burn
ed is petrol. for which tanks are sup
piled undcrnca'" he main frame, CaIa

He is said to have expressed pro-

hearing that the royal party will ride

Schools i'm Porto Rico.

James Preston. who has just return

Philadelphia Record: There are about
fifty American schOOlhouses in Porto
Rico now-the Washington. the Lin
coin. the Penn. the Mckinley. the JEFF
ferson. the Irving. the Hamilton. and
SO on-and about 1900 pupils are at
tending them. One of the principals
pointed out TO me young girl of sew

explained. twenty miles TO and from
school daily. slept on bare floor and
begged nearly all her food. she was SO
poor. This was one OF his best stu
dents.
"a boy had on shirt so much too
big for him that his whole person
could have slipped through the opening
at the neck. What's the trouble with
your shirt. my lad:' the principal ask
ed. The boy answered: This ain't mine:
It's fathers. Mines i'm the wash That
hoy would have come naked rather

The Game of Games.

OF golfites there are many:
AT tennis many play:
Pingpong has friends by legiOns.
And some still try cToQuet.
But when il comes to paS;imes
The greatest OF them all
In city and in country
Is just good old baseball.
It's played throughout the city
On every vacant lot.
And meTrily the urchins
The ball with viSOr swat.
The pitchers emhry Ctic
Are training on the streets,
And caJCherS are amazing
All watchers by their featS.
It's played throughout the country
WhcTe farming lads abound
And there. as in the city.
The hall is knocked around.
In every crossroads village,
No difference how small.
There's found team upholding
The honor of baseball
In city and in country
When rUojvTs cUDSrrgate
The all absorbing topic
Is baseball mp To date
They gather at the corner,
They gather in the store.
And hours they spend discussing
The features Of the score
So while d lot Of plstimcs
VIII now and then engage
Attention there is only
One game that's all the rage.
There may be grouchy fellows
Advancing foolish claims,
But when il comes to pleasure
Bas"halls ; the game of games.

FoRTNIGHTLY CLUB.

FIFTH ANNUAL BANQUET OF THE
l. CLUB HELD LAST NIGHT AT THE
RESIDENCE ORMRS. o. H. WILL.
The fifth anniversary OF the Fort
nightly Club was observed last night
with the usual banquet at the residence
of Mrs. Oscar H. Will. A very pleas
ant evening was passed by the mem
bers of the club and the invited guests.
The program consisted of a piano solo
by Mrs. Rawlings, a vocal solo by Mrs.
Klaus. the address of the PRESIDENT by
Mrs. F. H. Register, a review of the
club work by Miss Satterlund and a
piano duet by Mesdames Moore and
Smyth. After the program, the guests
sat down to a banquet, which consisted
Of many good things and was heartily
enjoyed. The club colors, pink and
white were used in the decorations,
and the tables were adorned with pink
and white carnations. Hand painted
programs in pink and white were also
used. After the completion of the lit
erary and musical program the gentle
men were called upon to write a de-
sc1iptlon of the costume of some lady
present and the ladies to identify the
costumes described, the feature being
productive of much amusement.
Miss Satterlund's paper is highly
spoken of as a general review of club
work. It dealt with the gradual de-
velopment of the work done by WON
els clubs throughout the country, and
with the organization and DEVELOPMENT
of club work in North Dakota, not
omitting a complimentary allusion to
the work of the Fortnightly club of
Bismarck. Mrs. Budlong's toast was
a gem, and all-of the features of the
program were enjoyable.
Mrs. A. L. Woods acted as toastmis-
tress after the banquet, and MI. Bell
responded to "The Absent Orators
Dr.. Rawlings spoke OF "The Engaged,
Disengaged and the Hopeless" Miss
Jones responded in her usual happy
fashion and Mrs. Budlong spoke of

Those present were: Messrs. and
Mesdames: c.. M Dahl, A. L. Woods,

WHERE IS LUNDY.

WHERE IS LUNDY.
Has D. E. Lundy of Leal. N. D., been
murdered in the Twin Cities for the
5 1000 which he had in his possession
when he disappeared?
This is the question which the St.
Paul and Minneapolis police are trying
to answer. Chief of Police O'Connor
of st. Paul and Chief of Detectives
Doyle of Minneapolis are working on
the case.
The first of November Lundy
shipped a carload of stock which got
into South ST. Paul Nov. 2. The G. L.
Haas Commission Co., who sold the
stock for him, held the returns, amount
ing to about $500, according to orders.
November 4 they were instructed ITO
send the money to Lundy in care OF
someone in North Minneapolis. This
was done, and the check came back
through the stockyards bank, having
been cashed by the Swedish-American
bank of Minneapolis. Lundy had
about 5000 cash with him when he left
South st. Paul.
A brother of the missing man, A. E
Lundy, also of Leal, is in the Twin
Cities investigating the matter. He
says the missing man was not addicted
to drink, and feels sure that he would
not voluntarily disappear.
The stock which was sold belonged
to A. E. Lundy.
