 The deceased was a member of the Christian church and a very lovely character, whose many virtues won her not only friends but an ardent love from her helpmeet, whose life is now barren of the sweet companions ship of one he loved. The sympathy of our community is his in the hour of grief

BOTH HOUSES BUSY.

Little Rock, March 12.- Two inci-
 dents out of the ordinary transpired
 in legislative circles yesterday. One
 was the reading of letter in the sen
 ate from Harry M. Ramey of Little
 Rock, making sensational charges
 against ex- Senator J. F. McNemer in connection with an insurance bill.
 MT. McNemer was out of the city yes
 terday, and his side of the matter could not be obtained.
 Tn the house, in the discussion of
 the Whitthorne bill to re-enact the
 old gambling laws, MT. McGuigan said that he had heard that two years ago
 gamblers in Hot Springs raised $17, 900 for the purpose of attempting to dignation arose in the house, and it was not subdued until Mir. McGuigan disclaimed any intention of reflecting upon the house. Mr. Whitthorne ap- pealed to the house to vindicate him by passing his bill, and thus saying whether his course in the past was worthy of the confidence of the gen.
 eral assembly, both now and in the
 past Numbers of the representatives went to Mr. Whitthorne and assured
 him they had misunderstood the pro- visions of his bill at first and gladly voted for it after understanding the
 matter. The house passed the meas ure by an almost unanimous vote.
 The house formally approved ar
 ticles of impeachment against Cham celIor Leatherman and presented the
 same to the senate. President Short appointed Senators Wilson, Hardy
 and Simpson a committee to arrange
 the preliminaries for the trial of the accused.
 The house reconsidered the vote by which it passed the Briant bill, sepa-
 rating school taxes paid by whites and negroes and making negro free schools IdepeDdent upon taxes paid by negroes. The house passed the Cate bill, mak- ing it unlawful for common carriers to accept for shipment outside the state
 any fish, except buffalo and catfish.
 The house reconsidered the vote by which Senator Price's worlds fair bill
 failed to pass, and the measure will come up again.

THE OLD MAN KNEW.

A boy out ran his allowance and other resources so much that he was in imminent need of aid. So he sat down and wrote to his father thus: "Dear Pal had the misfortune to be upset in boat while out on the river and lost the beautiful watch you gave me. I would like some money to em- ploy a diver to recover it.-Your af- fectionate son, Thomas" The old gentleman was no fool. He replied: "It is not worth while diving for it. It might SIS well be in soak in one place as in another. ."-Ex.

GAME wARDEN's WARNING.
All North Dakota Birds are Protected b,
Game Laws Except Sparrows
and Black Birds.

Clarence A. Hale, Game Warden
District No. l.: For the information
of boys and some that are not boys in
years, I desire to call attention to the
fact that under our game laws, song
and ins~ect.eating birds are prote cted,
Any n violating this law is guilty
of a misdemeanor, and upon con-
viction thereof is punishable by a fine
of $40 for each bird. This protects
practically all of the North Dakota
birds, excepting the English sparrow
and the black bird. Reports have
come to me of s'boys killing Birds"
and I will say that this will be look
ed after by myself and deputies and
guilty parties will be given the full
benefit Of the law.-Herald.

SOCIETY IN TIE WEST.
It II Friendly to the Newcomer and
Ever Ready to Receive Him ON
His Merits.

1t is a society almost wholly without
snobbishness. Now and then there be-
comes apparent a struggle to enter it
on the part of some one outside Of it;
but, because access is so simple, the
fact that a struggle is necessary nearly
always creates in itself a perpetual dis
qualification. 1t is a society exceed
ingly friendly to the newcomer very
ready to receive him on his own
merits; it has no feeling of it's own in
security to make it snub him because
1T does not know who he was before he
came. And while the visitor will be
asked many questions about his &C.
q~ualntances in other cities, he will not
be asked if he has met "the Rockmores
of Germantown" in order to discover
If he knows the right people," The
questions are put in a hopeful way,
with the hospitable wish to find mu-
tual friends of whom to talk, and to
bring the visitor and native into closer
touch, says Harper's Magazine.
There is a natural drawing together
and Independence, of course, among
the people who form the nucleus of this
society; whose fathers and grand
fathers have been friends, watching
the town grow from a village in the
forties to a city of Importance in the
twentieth c~entuary; and although
there is a small complacence among
the families that were here "from the
H"ST. y amounts N"ninl" to greater
&'niN"r'ty WITH "n"h m'hrr ~. amen
,eiuinyes. tnu1ir,rns arc all the hap
per Tor the absence OF the p~onu-1urtle
who c~ondescends to the newcomer be-
cause his relatives have been a long
time in the same pond. Here and there
there may be an individual who takes
to himself some credit that his family
have achieved distinction or continued
IN respectability through several sen
erations; but he does not p,ah the
claim, because he lives among people
who would laugh less al "the arrogant
strut of new wealth" than at a claim
OF privilege for high birth;" because
(the people would feeD to be tainted
with the former means at least that
you are proud Of something you your
self have accomplished; to possess the
latter means that you are in the ludi-
% latitude of being proud of your
self because Of something that ONE
body else did.
The members of this society live on
terms of singular intimacy with one
another, almost as in a village, meet
ing often, and rarely passing each other
on the street without pausing for more
than a greeting. When the warm
weather begins one has only to stroll
or drive about certain pleasant
portions of the city during the early
evening to see nearly all his friends,
who will be l%ounging each on his lawn,
or comfortably taking the air on the
broad porches; and the older inhabi-
tant easily remembers the day when
he was acquainted with every person
of respectable appearance in town.
Such intimacy, of course, entails an
amusingly large quantity of amazingly
small gossip.

DAKOTA AT TIL FAIR.
Lieut.. Gov. Bartlett Already is at Work
on the Plans For a Fine Showing at
St. Louis.

Lieut.. Gov. Bartlett, of Coopers-
town, who will have charge Of the
North Dakota exhibit at the st. Louis
fair, was here yesterday t confer with
Photographer Kitchin, Of Walhalla,
regarding a trip.over the state for the
purpose of taking out. door views for
use at the fair. Mr.. Kitchin had. a
number of outdoor views exhibited at
the Buffalo exposition and his work
attracted much attention, a number
of eastern photographers declaring
that the work was the finest thai had
yet been exhibited. It is the inten-
ton to use a large number Of photo-
graphs to beautify the North Dakota
exhibits in the several buildings and
at the same time present many of the
beauties of the state that could be
brought to the attention of fair visi-
tors in no other way. A commission
Of five will have charge of the display
at st. Louis, which will be in i'm
mediate charge Of MI. Bartlett. Up
to date but two men have been decided
upon to represent the state at the ex-
position. These ale James B. Street
Ell, Jr., of Larimore, and Prof. Wal
dron, Of the Agricultural college at
Fargo. The management of the ex-
position has decreed that no state will
be allowed to make its display
separate from the other states, and
on that accoun North Dakota will
have disvlpay in several Of the build
ings. The main disl lay will be in
the agricultural building, and a space
80 by 81 feet has been asked for in
that building. In addition displays
will be made in the Mining building,
Educational building, Forestry build
ing and probably in some Of the
others, a portion of the main display
may be duplicated in other buildings.
Each Of these displays will be looked
after by a nan elected for his ability
to set forth the desirable points of
North Dakota in a fascinating man
ner. The two men selected are be-
lieved to be especially we'll equipped
for this work and the others to be
elected will be fully as proficient.
Mr.. Bartlett had a conference while
here with J. Fl. Bosard, who is inter
ested in a county display at the fair.
He has the northern half of the
state to look after, and the several
counties in that section are expected
TO do something in the way Of making
a display of the product of each parti-
cular locality.
If present plans are carried out
North Dakota will make a showing at
the fair that will compare most favor
ably with any state Of the union

FORT TOTEM.
Rev. w. D. Reese Tells of the Improved
Conditions OF the Reservation,

n, NOuOlLlOuS Oh the RESERVATION.
Rev. W. D. Reese of Fort Totten,
who with his daughter, Miss Olive,
has been attending the Episcopal
convocation ii the city this week,
reports a genuine little boom on at
the reservation, near the old aban-
doned fort.
"The government still has in
charge at the reservation 1900 red
men of the old Dakota tribe. They
have settled down to a thorough
civilized life and many of them are
prominently identified with the
church. I have two very intelli-
gent Indians with me On this trip.
"They are thoroughly acquainted
with civilized customs and partake
of hotel hospitality with CONNIE nd
able grace and ease. Their future
is indeed bright.
"Oh, yes, we are having quite a
little boom at the reservation. The
government is caring we'll for its
charges. About $50, 900 is at pres.
ent being expended by Uncle Sam
in improvements. This money will
go toward the construction of a
lighting and heating plant and a sy )
tenn of sewers. The buildings are
all in good repair and sufficiently
large for all purposes and nothing i:
needed in this line. Forum.

:Deaf School Notes :
Mrs. James Gibney is visiting with
relatives at Denbigh this week.
From the Banner.

Mrs. James Gibney is visiting with
relatives at Denbigh this week.
This is the last issue of the Banner
for this year and we wish one and all
a pleasant and profitable vacation.
The year just passed has been rather
of a trying n for the School in many
ways yet it has been a year in which
h g school has made good progress.
The School was invited by Father
Augustine of St. Calls College, to
have a picnic in their grove south Of
town but as arrangements had been
made to go to Chautauqua, and only
one day could be taken, we had to de-
cline the kind invitation. He very
kindly and generously sent Mr..
Bangs five dollars to be used in buy
ing good things for the picnic.
Much to the delight Of the boys a
match game Of baseball with the team
of the D. L. Public School was ar
ranged for and took place Thursday
evening. Mr.. Bangs excused the
pupils from study and the older girls
took in the game. An exciting game
was played and one that was a credit
to our boys. The score was 10 to 6 in
favor of the visiting team. Another
game took place Friday and still
another has been planned for June 6
The conduct of the children has
been most excellent and their zeal
highly to be recommended. We have
as nice a lot Of girls and boys as can
be found anywhere. With slight ex-
ceptions the health of the school has
been excellent and we are able to re-
turn all children to their parents
again alive and we'll. Just when the
school will reopen in the fall we do
not know yet. Work has begun on
two new additions and the whole
work will BIZ pushed as rapidly as
| DOSSlU1O DIS SUO1 az wv o1O o0Ou1Cu ~
our bonds will be taken by State
Treasurer Mcmillan.
The day set for the picnic last week
was a disagreeable one so the happy
event was postponed until Monday last
and there certainly was nothing disa-
greeable about the weather even to
the most critical. Happy faces were
seen on every side and the windows
were full of faces right after break
fast to see that the lunch got off safely.
Promptly at half past ten, all set
out for the station to take the car that
was attached to a gasoline engine.
The Chautauqua grounds were reached
about a quarter past eleven and all
scattered to play in the woods, pick
flowers IL play games in the ball
park. Many games were played that
all could take pant in and which add
ed to the appetite Of everyone.
Lunch was served at half past twelve
to which all did more than ample
Justice. In the afternoon the older
boys played baseball while the others
formed an all-appreciative audience
on the grand stand and bleachers.
Later a visit to the lake shore was
made and then supper was had. AT
half past six, noses were counted and
then all were safely seated in the car
and the homeward journey begun.
The car went very slowly and the ride
was the more enjoyable for it. The
school was reached at half past eight
by a tired but happy crowd of child
rem after spending the day full of
pleasure without an accident OF an
unpleasant episode to mar the day.

LOCK UP STOCKS.
State Druggist Asks Questions as to Pre-
cedure Under Shiels Law.

A state druggist, in writing to The
Herald wants to know what a druggist
should do with his stock Of liquors
during the month Of July, during the
period that he will be out of a per-
NIT, owing to the going into effect of
the Shells law.
He also wants to know. if druggists
will be allowed to keep a small stock
of several kinds Of liquors on hand for
use in compounding medicines under
physicians prescriptions.
The letter was referred to a legal
gentleman, who said that druggists
should store their stocks Of liquors
during the dry month Of July, or put
them under lock and key. A large
stock of liquor would be taken as
prima facie evidence that the same
was being sold for illegitlmate pur-
poses and might give the druggist who
owned the stock considerable trouble.
The best plan would be to store the
stock and store it in a place not con
nected with the drug store property.
Any druggist would be allowed to
keep a small stock of the liquors that
are used in c~ompounding medicines,
to be used only in compounding un-
der a physicians prescription, but in
no case should he sell any of such
liquors under a physicians prescrip-
tion without it being used solely for
compromising drugs.-Herald.
