MAUD CONNIE.

The shadows have fallen over the
pathway of Maud Come, the beauti-
full, brilliant brave, young Irish wo-
man. whose devotion to the cause Of
Irish freedom won for her the title Of
the s.sIrich Joan Of Arc" But ave short
years ago, she stood in life's sunlight,
respondent in her glory as the esoQunt
impressive, impestu0us advocate Of
the cause Of l.s-rty Of her dear mother
land. In whose cause no service she
could perform Seemed arduous. no
effort she was able to make sacsi-
fee. She was welded to the cause Of
Irish freedom. Her soul VS. ever
aflame with loe Of the little oppressed
little island In the sea; her sympathy
infinite; her enthusiasm limitless; her
willingness to labor for the cause she
loved boundless; her efforts to aid BY
patriotic devotion unremitting. She
was tireless worker for the oppres-
ed; faithful friend Of ireland and an
irreconcilable foe OF England She
was so firmly welded to her advocacy
the world over, Of the cause Of Ireland
that she turned a deaf ear to the
pleadings Of all who sought to turn
her until fate-cruel fatecame in
the form OF Major Mcbride, who
wood her successfully and won both
her heart and her hand
The Irish world envied him the
jewel he had Wona which might

lost. Ard no~ the sympathy OF the
Irish world goes out to her in the
fullest measure that her sun Of happi.
ness has been dimmed, and the shad-
ows Of sadness have fallen across her
pathway.
Her husband proved unworthy OF
the jewel he he'd won, and she sought
relief in the French court by praying
for legal separation from him. Her
prayer has been granted BY the civil
tribunal Of Seine. within whose
jurisdiction she has lived for years
which has granted her judicial
separation from her husband, but mol
an absolute divorce. which the conr1

Harvesting Progress.

The wheat harvest which began
two weeks ago, will be practically all
finished this week, and the grain all
into the shock under the most favor
able weather conditions for good quan-
tity. Tuesday and Wednesday of this
week there was quite strong wind
which dried out the grain in fine con-
dition for the threshers.
Some threshing has been done this
week. and it will be universal next
week. Probably one hundred loads of
wheat has been delivered in the eleva-
tors in Bottineau, much Of it being
No. hard grade. Only one farmer
has yet threshed enough to make an
estimate OF his yield and that was
Z bushels per acre on land that was
summer followed last year. These fig
ures are high, probably above the av-
elage for yield. but the quality of
the grain is excellent, unless wet wea-
ther catches it in the fields before the
thresbers get to it. There seems to
be plenty of help and plenty OF ma
chimes so far, and it the weather holds
good the crop will all be in the eleva-
tor early in the fall. .'r

FOR LAND FRAUD
E. E. Hazen was Arrested
atLansford by U.S.Dep-
uty Marshal.

Alleged land frauds in the vicinity
of Minot are being probed by the
United States officials, says a dispatch
from that place to the daily press.
Deputy United States Marshal q.
J. Stout of Fargo came here Saturday
to serve warrant on E E. Hazen Of
Lansford, charged with perpetrating
land fraud. He was released on
81, 900 bail.
It is alleged that Mr.. Hazen made a
contract with another person to file on
piece of land and to surrender it to
himself as soon as the patent was re-
ceived. This is the result of an ex-
haustive Investigation which the
United States officials have been max
ing in North Dakota for some time.
A few days ago it became known
that the investigation was extended to
Northwestern North Dakota and the
arrest of Mr.. Hazen followed. 3
It ia alleged that many homestead
ers in this section of the state violate
the law with reference to continuous
residence on the land. There is q
difference of opinion as to this point.
The law itself is very strict, but
construction is not always too exating.

OUTBID WALL STREET KINGS.
New York Express Clerk Makes Hand
some Profit on Canal Bonds.

New York.-When Samuel Byerley,
clerk in the office of the American Ex-
press company, obtained an award of
$5,8O0,000 Panama bonds from the
treasury department and successfully
arranged the transfer of his claim to
big banking concern, thus realizing
an immediate profit of from $4,000
to $4,000 on an investment of one
two-cent stamp, Mr.. Byerley was
hailed all over the country as "a
clever young man." Young, however,
he can scarcely be called, for he is
within two years of the half-century
mark, and has six children, the eldest
18 years of age. Nor can he called
poor by any means, for his comfort
able apartment is situated in a rath-
Or exclusive neighborhood. His couI,
was no accident, but the result of
study Of bond issues extending over
many years. Mr.. Byerleys private
hobby is French literature, and he is'
to spend his brilliantly won vacation
in France, taking trip that he has
looked forward to for years. Since
his achievement became known, Mr..
Byerley has been approached nv
scores OF propositions, which have
included every branch of industry
from zinc mining to the manufacture
Of baby food. :

Doubtless there are many good,
conscientious citizens in the state who
believe that the present Prohibition
law is grand success and that it is
a deterrent to drunkenness. Doubtless
they also believe that ''prohibition
prohibits. The fact remains howev-
er that the Gund Brewing Co. of La
Crosse, Wisconsin shipped into the
State of North Dakota during the year
1905, 112 car loads of Beer; and Gund's
Beer is not the most popular brand at
that. Go into any town in the state
and look over the druggists permit
book, and if you are at all credulous
you will believe from the evidence
that the whole community is afflicted
with many and various diseases. II
is noticeable that during the time that
druggists could not sell more than 6
Ialf pint of whiskey, and many oi
them did not take ont premit, thai
there was no increase in the deatt
rate. Humanity always wants rattle
box and in this good common wealth
the prohibition law furnishes The
amusement. How long are we going
to stand for this fetish and when will
members of the Legislature wake ny
to the fact that the Constitution clause
regarding the sale and manufacture O
iintoxicants in the state of North Da
kota is delusion and a snare and re
peal the same, or give the people al
large the chance to act upon it

GRAIN BUS : :
Committee of North Da-
kota Bankers after In
formation. A#.

F. ". Cathro of the First National
bank has just been notified of his ap-
pointment by President Hanna of the
North Dakota Bankers association as
one of committee of five to investi
gate the grain inspection business, and
will leave Monday for Duluth ex-
pecting to meet the other members of
the committe, and spend several days
in gathering information for report
to be made to the next legislature.
The other members of this commit.
tee are W. c. Macfadden secretary of
the association, Fargo. J. L. Cashel,
Grafton; NJ. F. Murphy, Grand Forks
and g. D. Lord of Cando.
The appointment of this committee
was authorized by resolutions passed
at the meeting of the Bankers Associa
tim held in Fargo the middle of last
month. That meeting was attended
by Senator Hudnall of Wisconsin, who
has been actively engaged during the
past few years, both as citizen and
member of the Wisconsin legisla-
ture, in reforming the business of
handling grain at the lake terminals.
Senator Hudnall is the author of tne
Wisconsin grain inspection law, by
which grain market is sought to be
esta blished at Superior in competition
with Duluth and Minneapolis, which
operates under the Minnesota law.
The Minnesota system is reputed to
be all in favor of the Minneapolis and
Duluth elevator companies. grades be-
ing SO fixed and classified that they
are enabled to buy larger per cent,
age of the Northwestern crop as No.
Northern; and through an inepxen'
sive cleaning operation they raise il
to, and sell it for, No. 1 hard.
A reasonable Interpretation of bust
ness methods. would make this opera
tion a legitimate one to certain ex.
tent, but such statistics as are at hand
tend to show larger percentage Of
the Northwestern crop Is bodgnt from
the farmers at much lower grade
than it is finally sold for by the eleva-
tor companies at Minneapolis and
Duluth.
As the financial guardians of the
farmers and business men of the state,
the bankers association has undertaken
the work of Investigation. at their own
expense. It is to be hoped their work
will be thorough, and the subsequent
report one that will be filled with
reliable information upon which tc
base remedy, if one is found te
be necessary. The members of the
committee are men who will make
it a business instead of pleasure trip
and we have every reason to expect
a tangeable result.

ton, for aid in some contemplated en-
terprise or to ward off famine and
