A CLAIRVOYANT STORY
TALES THEY TELL OF A FORTUNE
TELLER IN A NEW YORK TOWN.
She Finds Lost Articles and Her Gus
TONERS Are Pleased but Much
Puzzled.

Binghamton Letter in New York Sun.
This is a Enthusiastically proper middle
New York town. with the regulation num-
Der OF churches. banks, schools, mills, mill
sites and dam sites But more than this. 1t
has title TO distinction that outweighs all
other considerations. 1t is the home Of
soothsayer. a real No. I, first chop, topside
sayer OF soothing things, without any dis
count at all.
This oracular individual does not confne
herself to mystical illusions and yelled
prophecies OF vague and unnamed good for
tune certain to come some time in the future
IL you only wait long enough. She deals in
facts so hard and cold that they glitter.
and there is just a sufficient admixture OF
past present and future In them to drive
them home all the harder.
Almost any body can tell some kinds Of
facts from the past. but facts OF that sort
this woman fails TO mention. She does bust
ness with the facts that only two or three
persons know and they usually have a Wig
orous desire TO keep them dark.
Her special stronghold is the recovery of
stolen goods. or things that have been lost
and the range OF her operations seems to
have no particular limit. For instance, there
was the case the other day or the doctor 8
wife.
She had lost valuable brooch. AS usual
In such cases. IL was one TO which she was
attached for particular reasons. outside Of
its intrinsic value
1t happened that she had not worn it for
several months and supposed that II was in
the case with the rest OF her Jewels. When
she had occasion TO use II, 1t could not be
found.
There was a commotion 10 the house. An
inventory OF the jewels showed that the
brooch was the only article missing. That
seemed 10 dispose OF the theory that there
had been a robbery. at least by any one out
side Of the house
There was, OF course. the usual suspicion
that some one OF the servants had taken IL.
The house was searched from top TO bottom
Every nook and Granny was ransacked
The brooch could not be found.
Because II had been gift from the doctor
his wife unwilling To tell him that 1T
had been lost. until every possible means Of
recovering IL had been exhausted. In this di-
JENNA she thought OF the soothsayer.

The following group may be classed as
recreative games with small amount Of
physical work and suitable for the home:
Billiards, pool. shuttle board. bowling fenc-

bodily activity. also suitable for home exer-

games as billiards and pool. To those who
can afford 10 have them To alternate With
more active sports they are means OF great
mental relaxation and profit. Shuttle board
Is a game which can be INDUCED IN and en-
joyed by all members Of the family. a
greater amount OF exercise H. derived from
this than either billiards or pool. The game
consists OF sliding inon dices over A shuf-
fie board aud attempting TO land" them in
a given line. A shuttle board that Is covered
with canvas does away with the dust and
noise and makes the game more enjoyable

Lady Emily had TO wait upon tragic
events before she could reap her promised
inheritance. The women of the Korean court
had not lived easy lives, and the first wife
of the Emperor came TO an end which might
have warned Emily Brown OF the step She
was taking. She had been omnip0tent in the
kingdom. and every corner OF tho palace.
every street in Seoul, was watched by her
spies.
1t was said that she was too favorable to
Russia and there were other reasons why
she should be hated; and one day twenty
years ago, during trouble with Japan, the
Empress disappeared. and Korea was or
dered to 60 into mourning for twelve
months. Then the dead" Empress appeared
again at court and IL transpired thar she
had been struggled from the palace dis

Minot. Sept 90. : A meeting of all
the principal mine owners in Ward
county coal district met yesterday in
the parlors OF the Minot National
bank for the purpose OF fixing the
price on coal for the winter,
It is understood that the kenmare
mines are i'll favor, Of advancing
coal at the mines from So, the pres
ent price, TO 81. 80 per tor. Thus
far the coal mine owners have held
out for So a5 raise.
1t is argued that if the Ignite coal
mine operators advance the price of
coal to s2, so per ton it will cost the
consumer in Minot about 81 per ton
and that whenever Ignite reaches that
f~nre it will be to the advantage OF
the consumers to buy foreign soft coal.

Bismarck, N. D., Sept. 2s. The
state has an embarrassment of riches
in its permanent school found, and in
an effort to find Investment for it is
trafficking for the purchase of its own
obligations.
There is total of 5000, 600 to $500,

The law provides that this can only be
invested in bonds Of the United States,
bonds Of the state Of North Dakota,
bonds of school districts and loans in

The Carthage Disirct Epwouh
League Convention convened IN the
little city Of Liberal. in Barron
eoua,y, on Tuesday afternoon, June
3, for a three days session, Rev.
g. ~. Cosper, Of Lamar. the dis-
ifiei president presiding.
We were met At the depot by .
committee from the local chapter
and escorted to the 81. L. Church
and assigned 20 the homes where.
We were 20 be entertained during
our stay. II you want 10 know
anything concerning the hospitality
Of the Liberal people, ask eiiherof
the Rich Hill delegates and they
will soon convince you that these
people know how to make one feel
at home in their midst.
We have ell heard considerable
Of Liberal, as the founders Of the
town had boosted that no church
should ever be established there.
But churches ARE there, and for
three days at least, the Methodists
fairly s9ook the town. We have
a neat little church in the city and as
faithful a band of workers as can
be found any place, led by an earn
est and eonsecrated pastor, Rev.
6. NJ. Foster.
The sessions Of the convention
were enthusiastic and helpful. The
address b, DIR. Matt 5. Hughes OF
Kansas City, will not soon be tor
gotten by those fortunate enough 10
hear il. The same can be said OF
the address by DIR. Belts OF Kansas
City, Kans., who represents Beth
any Hospital, as he told OF the suf-
fering caused by the recent high
waters. Thisiouehed many hearts
who went home with the determi-
nation to do something for Bethany
which is doing 50 much for suffer-
ing humanity.
On Wednesday evening we en-
joyed q treat J n the way of q mus.
ieal and literary program. Rev.
and Mrs. Cosper sang a duet, and
Miss Jessie Cosper a solo, which
were received with hearty enoores.
A male quartet composed Of Revs.
James, Cosper. Sapp and Moore
pleased everybody with their sing.
ing. The address Of the evening
was delivered by Rev. c. {. James
of our city, on the subject "Ths
Xertebme of Literature" Il was :
mastery address and elected very
favorable commentator on ever
hand. The other numbers wer'
also very enjoyable.
Rev. Guy Z. Moore, 50 well ans
favorably known 10 u people.
talked 10 the convention concerning
the liquor traffic in a very pOinieC
aud pithy address.
The Junior League OF our church
WAS represented by Master Lyndor
Philer aud little Mss Inez James.
Both delivered r~ecitations during
the Junior program. Lyndon re.
ported the work Of the JunioI
League Of this place and received
many words OF praise for the man
uer ia which be did SO.
Young people and preachers Il
