A preacher came at a newspaper
man in this way: You editors
do not tell the truth. II you did
you could not live; your news
paper would be a failure" The
editor replied: "You are right.
and the minister who will at
all times tell the whole truth
about his members, alive or dead.
will not occupy his pulpit more
than one Sunday. and then he will
find it necessary to leave town in
a hurry. The press and the pull
pit go hand in hand with white
wash brushes and pleasant words
magnifying little virtues into big
ones. The pulpit, the pen and
the gravestone are the great saint
making triumvirate." And the
minister went away looking very
thoughtful, while the editor turned
to his work and told OF the sur
passing beauty OF the bride, white
in fact she was as homely as mud
fence.

The germ theory is that the ex.
citing cause OF each contagious or
infectious disease is some specific
living micro-organism, and that
these diseases are communi :ited
only by the transfereuce to and
development OF the specific para
site or germ within or upon the
animal infected. The germ theory
has been accepted generally by
the medical profession throughout
the world, and we may reasonably
expect that not only will the exact
cause OF each communicable dis
ease be determined but that some
wise disciple OF Esculapius will
discover the means OF destroying
the host OF microbes that are now
a menace to health and life. Some
day some wise guy will invent a
pill that will be sure death to the
booze microbe, and the temper.

long as the booze microbe lives
and has its being. however, the
chemists at the thirst parlors all
over the land will continue to dole
out the necessary needful to salts
~ the cravings OF the aforesaid
microbe. When the booze microbe
killer makes its appearance upon
this mundane spere, however, the
thirst parlor chemist will hnd his
occupation, like Othello's, gone,
went hence, to return no more. The
latest theory is that the germs oi
the booze habit are impaired to
Chicago babies through the medi
um Of milk from cows that eat the
refuse from Peoria distilieries.
This discovery was made by a milk
inspector. and he has enjoined the
dairy men OF that city to sell NO
more milk from these cattle. He
does not claim that he ever saw

Guilty Of Murder

Guilty of murder in the first de-
gree with recommendation of extreme
penalty, was the verdict of the Jury
at Fargo in the case of John Rooney.
Rooney was unaffected by the YER
dict and seemed to be the least con-
cerned man in the court room. He is
% years old, bright looking and rath-
er handsome.
Harold Sweet, the victim, and two
brothers, of White Earth, Mimi, were
camped outside the city limits the
night of Aug. 26, en- route to Court
nay, to work in the harvest fields.
Rooney and two chums ~endeavored to
hold the three boys up, but there was
considerable resistance, and the other
two men fled, leaving Rooney strug-
Cling with Harold Sweet, who fell
dead as a revolver was fired. Rooney
was seized by the other two Sweet
boys and held till the officers arrived.
The prisoner always asserted that
one Of his pals fired the shot to re-
lease him from Sweets hold.
The defense submitted no evidence
at the trial, but the attorney made a
strong argument. Rooney is sup
posed to have q criminal record in
Chicago, and is said to have ,promi-
nent relatives, who may assist him to
appeal.
