Most men have conscientious OF
religious scruples against doing GER
tain things which the law does not
regard as wrong, such as certain
violations Of the Sabbath for per
sonal gain. | do not believe that
such people gain anything ultimate
ly by doing things on the Sabbath
day which their consclences regard
as wrong. The farmer who cuts his
grain on Sunday in anticipation of
bad weather is sacrificing principle
for.gain and isithe loser thereby.
am a sincere believer that whatever
he gains by such methods is taken
away from him in some other way
and that he will not succeed any bet
ter than the neighbor who conscien-
tIousiy observes Gods day. I be-
lieve that 1t is possible to success
fully run any kind Of business and
keep IL closed on the sabbath day
with the possible exception OF those
which minister to the positive needs
OF people or animals, and these could
get along with less work than is as
ually done.

SENATOR BATES DRY SMOKE

Senator Bate Of Tennessee is a
passionate lover Of tobacco, yet the
cigar he carries in his mouth is al
ways unlighted. No, he is not tax
ing the cure; he explains it in this
way:
1t seems that during the war SEN
ator (then GeneraD Bate was riding
by the side of his brothers during a
battle. He felt the longing for a
smoke" coming on, and so drew
a fine favored Havana from his
pocket. lie scratched match
against the saddle and was just
about to light the weed when a shell
whizzed suddenly by, and the quick
rush of air accompanying the shell
put the match out. lie was about
to strike another when, turning, he
discovered that the shell had made
its mark, for there lay the dead
body of his brother. TO this day he
has sort of superstition regarding
lighted cigars, and this explains why
he only INDUCES in dry smoke"

Unmarried Enalishwomen.

There are a million more women
than men in Great Britain, and over
quarter of million more men
than women III Canada, New Zea-
land and Australia. At the ROYAL
Colonial institute recently Mrs.
Archibald r. Colquhoun sought to
discover why the superhuous wom-
en- do not 80 out and find the hus-
bands waiting for them abroad.
"The middle class girl" she said,
"will take great interest in domestic
economy classes and come home
with copious notes, but she will
hardly dust a room or help to make
a bed. She is willing to attend st.
John ambulance lectures, but is
bored to death if asked to nurse
sick relative" Then with the
death of the head of the family
comes poverty, and the supcrAuous
woman is generally proved to be the
incapable woman.-London Mail,

these dispatches two weeks ago. Grigs-
by was repres ented at the hearing by
Thurston & Ballinger, lawyers of this
city, the former being ex-senator John
M. Thurston of Nebraska. Senator
Hansbrough and Gamble and Represent
tatives Marshall, Burke and Martin,
representating the North and South
delegations in congress, were also
present, although they did not take
an active part in the hearing.
It has been said many times by the
opponents of Grigsby that the support
Of the district attorney by members Of
the North and South Dakota delega-
lions was either half-hearted or nor
NAL. Be that as it may, five Of them
were interested spectators at today's
hearing. The efforts of the lawyers
were directed largely toward disprov-
ing the charge that one $4,000 fee
which was paid to Grigsby by the
Pioneer Mining company at Nome was
bride. They sought to show that
the fee was simply a legitimate pay
ment for legal services, although ad-
mittedly a retainer" for services to
be rendered in the future.
This charge was made against the
district attorney in 1902. but no atten-
ton was paid to it by the department
of justice until after the return of the
departments special agents from
Nome last fall. The agents reported
against Grigsby on this particular
charge and accused him of other mis-
conduct.

The Russian dispatch that eleven

allowance for Russian coloring. The

doubtless be with the sturdy Japs.
Russia's dilstory and procrastinating

The year 1904 is destined to be
calamitous from it's opening. News OF
the dreadful fire at Baltimore and the
opening of the Russo-Japanese war
comes simultaneously. In the nearer
disaster at Baltimore, the events in
the far east assume an Importance to
us temporarily less than otherwise.
The disaster to the Maryland metropo-
lis is appalling, and in point of loss
approaches, if it does not exceed in
magnitude, the great Chicago fire of
thirty years ago. The entire business
heart of the city is eaten out by
flames, banks, newspaper offices,
wholesale and retail establishments,
and thousands of firms will be affect
ed. The loss is estimated in the
hundreds of millions, and the insur-
ance companies will be called upon for
$3O,oOo,O0o to $75,O00,000 in losses
Many individuals will suffer. and while
it will not check the growth of the city
more than temporarily, it will leave
blistering memory of ruined men
and beggared firms in many instances.
The city will rise as other cities have
risen, to a greater and better future,
but not until another generation will
the wounds he healed and the disaster
become less keen and bitter.

He Talked Too Much.

There goes young man whom l
saved from going to the dogs through
dliok, remarked a court stenographer.
He is tip top fellow and has plenty
of ability, but TWO or three years ago
he began to let red liquor get the best
of him. He had "a good position at
the time and | don't think he exactly
neglected his work, but it got to be a
common thing to see him standing
around barrooms IN the evening about
two-thirds full talking foolishly. A
few of his intimate friends took the
liberty of giving him a quiet hint.
As usual in such cases, he got highly
indignant and denied point blank that
he had ever been in the least under
the influence of liquor All the same,
he kept increasing the pace until it
became pretty easy to predict where
he was going to land, and it was at
that stage of the game | did my great
reformation act.
II was sitting in an uptown restau-
rant one evening When he came in
with some fellow and took a seat at
a table without seeing me. He was
Just drunk enough to be talkative
about his private affairs and on the
impulse of the moment pulled out
my notebook and took a full short
hand report Of every word he said.
1t was the usual maudlin rot Of a
booty man and included numerous
candid details of the speakers daily
lite.
Next morning copied the whole
thing neatly on the typewriter and
sent it around to his Office. In less
than half an hour he came tearing in
to me with his eyes fairly hanging
out of their sockets.
"Great heavens, Jack, he gasped,
what is this, anyhow P
"It's a stenographic report Of your
monologue at IS last evening" re-
piled, and gave him a brief explana-
ton.
"'Did I really talk like that P he
asked family.
az assure youitis an absolutely ver-
batim report, said l.
"He turned pale and walked out
and from that day to this he hasn't
taken a drink. His prospects at
present are splendid. All he needed
was to hear himself as others heard
him.
