ABOUT MEN AND WOMEN.
Both Have Their FalIin4s, But, AZ.
cording to This Writer, Men Are
1t q DisadvAntage.

Women were put here to make the
world look pretty, though the fashion
papers have never guessed this, says a
facetious writer.
They are fond Of dressing, except at
dances and dinner parties. A great
traveller once met lady friend, whom
he had not seen for many years at q,
dance. "Why, how you have altered"
said the lady: II declare l should not
have known you from ADAM" Nor l
you," retorted the man, from Eve"
Another hobby is talking. They are
quite as g%arrulous when sober as men
are when in their cups, and their con-
versation is often just as well worth
hearing.
AS q rule, they have more heart than
head. This is apt to render them
thoughtless. A woman will walk to
the end Of a street, then turn sharply
round without looking to see whether
there is anyone Immediately behind
her, and as a consequence, gouge.your
eye out with the end of her sunshade.
Sometimes she will beg your pardon,
but I have known one to just flip the
eye of the ferrule into the gutter and
sail serenely On without saying 9
word.
Men T what women marry. They
drink and smoke and swear, and have
ever so many pockets, but won't go to
church. Perhaps if they wore bonnets
they might. They are more logical
than women, and also more geological.
Both men and women have sprung
from monkeys, but the women certain
ly sprang farther than the men.

Americans in. Canada.

A newspaper correspondent who
says that he has watched the changes
in the population of Canada for 50
years denies that there has been a
very large immigration from the Uni
ted States to the western provinces,
and makes the additional charge that
the Canadian census is regularly pad
ded. He says that the reports claimed
an increase of LOCO, 1000 all of foreign
birth between 1881 and 1891, while the
statistics of immigration showed that
but $4,000 persons of foreign birth had
entered Canada during that period.
He does not believe that more than TO-
600 or 10000 Americans have settled
in western Canada.

swEATB0x CONFESSIONS.
Recent Court Ruling ON Thi. Method
OF Compelling Accused Persons
to Tell What They Know. ,

Here is q recent court decision in
the court of appeals of the District
of Columbia, West VS.. United States,
which shows what a violation of the
legal rights of accused persons the So
called ''sweatbox" methods of the po-
lice are:
Where an officer, having a prisoner
in custody, said to him: "You have
been telling me a .lck of lies; now,
you had better tell the truth" where
upon the prisoner made a confession,
1t was held that the confession was in
voluntary, and it was error to admit
it in evidence and to submit to the
jury the question whether or lot it
was voluntary. Under the law, as
properly administered, a confession, if
forced, cannot be used against a per-
son charged with the commission of
crime. The sweatbox method of OBJ
tanning confessions to be used against
the parties making them is not sane
toned by the court. The court said
that words of exhortation to a confess
sion seemed often to be innocent
enough, and cited the following, all
OF which had been held sufficient to
vltlate the confessions. "You are I'M
Ger suspicion and you had better tell
all you KNOW" ut would be better
0 you to speak out" "You had bet
ter tell the truth" and "You had as
well tell all about it,"

HUSBANDS AFFECTIONS.
For This Mrs. Sarah A. Salisbury Sues
Ellen Nichols For $4,000.

Minot Optic: There are a number
of interesting and important cases to
be tried at the adjourned term of the
United States district court which will
be convened in this city next Tuesday
morning by Judge G. F. Amidon, but
none will be watched with more in
terest than that of Sarah A. Salisbury
against Ellen Nichols.
This action is brought by Mrs.
Salisbury to recover damages in the
sum of $40, 900 for the alienation of
her husbands affections by the defen-
dant. j. K. Salisbury and his wife
lived for a number of years at Mime
waukan, where the wife still lives.
Several months ago Mrs. Salisbury
started an action for divorce against
her husband, charging infdelity de-
sertion. This ase was partly tried,
but no division Of the property has
ever been decreed. Ellen Nichols
figured in the action as correspondent.
Service was secured on Ellen
Nichols at Asotan, Washington, across
the Snake river from Lewiston, Mont.
The summons was resisted on account
of she being a. non resident and on
that account the presentation was
transferred to the federal court. IN
til the trouble in the Salisbury family,
Ellen Nichols lived near Minnewau-
kan, but has since been making her
home in the west. P. J. McClory,
of Devils Lake, has charge Of the case
for Mrs. Salisbury and Tracy R.
Bangs will appear for Ellen Nichols.

CURIOUS GERMAN CoLLIEs.
Kew Breed of Dogs Whelped By
Wolves That Are Superior for
the Tending OF Flocks.

German shepherds, having had diff
fculty in getting dogs that we're not
lazy and Pampered, the German Col
lie club attempted to improve the
breed. The best dogs in the country
were collected and bred with wolves
from the Ardennes, with the result
that a stronger race of sheep dogs
came into existence. Two specimens
OF these dogs have been brought to
this country by Samuel w. Portyce,
a st. Louis railroad man, who is q
dog fancier. These dogs, says the
New York Herald of recent date, are
very much like the wolf in their ap-
pearance. They have the pointed
ear, the keen eye and the restless
ways of their wild ancestors. The
elder OF the two, Stella, is two years
old and is of a tawny yellow color.
Wolf is well-named, for he has all
the characteristics of his grandmoth-
er, a she wolf. He is nine months
old. Both 0i the dogs have been
trained to take. care Of sheep, and
they can round upSa flock in short
order. Like the wolf, they refuse to
sleep but in daytime and never so
happy as when circling around their
charges at night.
Bringing of the specimens to this
country was attended with difficulty.

II e SCHOOL,.

#iNorth Dakota Banner: Last Mon
:*:::ii;;y evening Senator Henry Hale, Rep
Fresentatives Charles Baker and
George H. Davis accompanied by Mr..
Joseph Kelly, president of the Farm
ers' R. R., paid the school a visit.
The object of their visit was to in
spect the school and to ascertain its
needs. After inspecting the build
ings the party assembled in Supt.
Bangs Office and discussed the needs
of the school. The gentlemen from
this district are satisfied that the
needs of the school are substantially
as outlined in the Supt's. report that
the amount recommended for needed
improvements is reasonable, and that
the same will be readily recommend
ed by any committee of the legisla-
ture appointed to visit the state in
stitution.
In this we would call attention to
the fact that we are not asking for a
single dollar out of the state treasury
but are simply asking to be allowed
to bond II lands for these improve
ments. Our needs are imperative.
The security is gilt edged. We are
the only institution in the state that
has not been allowed to issue land
grant bonds and there is no reason
why we should not receive from the
legislature all that we are asking for.
We have sixty children here now and
the limit of accommodation has been
reached. There are numerous appli-
cations now on file and the applicants
will be- obliged to postpone their n
trance till such time as we have more
room.

E STRONG TOBACCO.
PsFiQus, Grown In the south anA Put
Up in Ropes, 10 Too Powerful
for Most Smokers.

In many of the t~obacconists' shops
perique tobacco, chopped into granu-
lated form, is displayed for use by
pipe smokers. This is the same per
ique that has been grown by French
men and Spaniards in Louisiana since
before our revolutionary war, says the
New York Herald. 1t is q jet black,
intensely strong tobacco, famous for
its favor and its ability to wreck the
nerves.
. It is grown and made in St. James
parish, Louisiana, and the crop only
amounts to about 100000 pounds .
year,
The makers follow the primitive
processes which were in use $50 years
ago. The stems are taken from the
leaves and the latter put into q box,
under q heavy gradual pressure. This
causes the juice to ruiz out, even
through the wood Of the boxes. A
gradual process of fermentation and
curing takes place.
At the end of three months the to-
bacco is rolled into carrots" and
wrapped in cloths, tightly bound with
ropes. 1t is left in that way for a
year before it is ready for market.
The flavor of perique is considered
delicious by all pipe smokers, but is
too strong. The tendency of smokers
is continually toward lighter and
lighter tobacco, and perique is now
used almost solely for mixing with
very mild tobaccos to flavor it.

HOn-UHION UNIONS
FLOURISH IN INDIANA
Labor Leaders Alarmed Over Their
Rapid Growth.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. April 1S.-The
leaders Of organized labor in this city,
alarmed by reports from the cities of
the Indiana gas belt. where non-union
unions have been formed. sent man
there early this week to Investigate the
conditions, and his report was made to-
day.
The Investigator says that it cannot
be denied that the new organization Is
having a remarkable growth. and that
the chief reason for this is found in the
encouragement which the laboring men
are receiving from employers and from
business men who are not employers of
labor He found in all the towns a
strong disposition to resent the en-
croachments of the unions. and also
that many men who have been affiliated
with the unions in the past are taking
part in the new movement
Tie unions agent fell in with one of
the organizers of the non-union unions.
and was given a very candid outline of
the purposes OF the new organization.
No concealment was made of the fact
that the organization is distinctly anti
union. and in the gas belt will pay at
tention particularly to the building
trades. where there has been so much
trouble this spring In other parts of
the country, however, other trades viii
be looked after, and it was the belief
of the investigator that the outlook
where these organizations have been
formed is anything but promising for
the labor unions
The agent found that there are lodges
at Anderson. Muncie, and Euwood. and
that a lodge will be formed at Marion
