Whatcom, Wash, January 5th:-
Mrs. A. M. Ferguson who came here
from Winnipeg, Manitoba, relates how
that great destroyer of Kidney Com
plants. Dodd's Kidney Pills first
reached the extreme North West cor,
ner of the United States:
Il had used Dodd's Kidney Pills for
what the Doctors pronounced Bright's
Disease in Winnipeg" Mrs. Ferguson
says, "And the disease disappeared
entirely. That was about three years
ago and l enjoyed good health till
about two years later when removed
to WhatcOm.

about two months.

Dodd's Kidney Pills but could get
none till Druggist sent away and
got them for him.

began taking them" Others in What

what aftlict thousands of people who
do not know what is the matter with

worse than ever, until in time they

About cubans and Music.

IF there's any truth in what Shakes
peare says about the man who has no
music in his SOUL" said| Lieutenant
George Culver, who has seen service
in Cuba, both in the army and out,
the Cubans will always be fit for
treasons, strategems and spoils.' They
have less of what one might call in
,diginous music than any other PEG.
pie have ever seen. The Spaniards
are essentially musical. So are. the
Mexicans. In Mexico one hears not
only Spanish music, but 'greaser'
songs, in which the Indian weirdness
comes out strong.
But over in Cuba everything is
borrowed. The native Cuban sings
less than the average American when
he works. He doesn't begin to sing as
much as the Southern negro does.
He does not seem to originate melo-
dies. His dance music, even, is not
his own The genius Of the Cuban
does not lean toward concord Of
sweet sounds, and that lack in him
may account for the great difference
between the Cuban and the Mexican
character"

Faith.

A mother in one OF the suburbs of
New York, wishing to prepare the
minds of her two children for "a COM
ing event of great Importance, told
them that if they would like to have a
little brother or sister, she thought, if
they prayed earnestly every night and
morning, God would send them one.
In due time the desired baby ar
rived, to the children's great delight,
and evidently to the Strengthening Of
their faith, for the next day the father
came into his wife's room, saying:

North Dakota Farmer, Now in State
Prison, Will Get Another Chance to
Fight.
The supreme court court reverses
the district court of Cavalier county,
Judge Kneeshaw, and grants a new
trial to William Barry, now serving a
life sentence in the state penitentiary
for murder.
The Barry case attracted wide atten-
tioin throughout. the state some time
ago, Barry being prominent and rich
farmer of Cavalier county, who killed
Andrew Mellem, his hired man, in a
barn on his place.
Barry claimed that Mellem had in
vaded his home and betrayed his Sis
ter and after, giving him specified
time to pray, he killed him with a
knife. The trial was hard-fought on
both sides, the state being represented
by States Attorney Dickson and John
NJ. Cochrane, supreme judge-elect Of
the state, and the defense being repre-
sented by Tracy r. Bangs of Grand
Forks, who made the appeal to the SUI
preme court
The syllabus covers three type-writ-
ten pages, reversal being based on the
charge OF the court to the jury. This
the supreme court reviews, and, after
quoting the language objected to by
the defense, holds that it gives clear
expression to the views of the presid-
ing Judge, and hence is held to be a
judicial error.

The supreme court holds that the
common law rule prevailing in some
states and in the federal courts, per-

to their views upon the credibility of
testimony or its weight or effect has
been abrogated in this state; that the
plea of not guilty puts into issue every
essential element of offense charged.
