Henrietta Gresham.

Henrietta CrOsman. the gifted act
ress. has caught the automobile craze.
Miss Crosnlan was Il tardy convert to
this means of locOmotion, her loyalty
to horse long remaining steadfast,
but when at length she inclined to
autos her enthusiasm made up for lost
time. Naturally. Miss Crosman was
fond OF horses. She is an army girl
and from her earliest childhood has
been accustomed to the saddle. In
deed. she will probably continue an
ardent eluestrienne. but for all other
purposes she has adopted the motor
carriage. Today she probably has
greater variety of automobiles than
any woman in New York. For shop
ping and for her morning trip to the
theater for rehearsal she uses landau
with the chauffeur perched behind.
The front of the vehicle instead of be-
ing glass is of especially prepared
transparent material which while en-
abling Miss Crosman to look ahead
would do no damage in case it was
shattered in collision or by other
accident. Miss Crosman of course,
has to be careful of her face, hence
the elimination of glass in the manu-
facture of her autos. However, she
always wants to see where she is go
ing and what is ahead of her, within
of hers when riding, so her autos are
prepared to give her this view. For
her afternoon rides in the park, Miss
Crosman's choice is a runabout and
this vehicle she operates herself. Its
speed is limited to fifteen miles an
hour. For her calls and similar err
rands she uses an electric brougham
but for her Journeys to and from the
theater and her home at night she has
big car constructed on plans which
she herself prepared and which is a
model of convenience. 1t is sufficiently
roomy to accommodate the actress and
her two maids and to carry home the
heaps of flowers which are in nightly
contribution from her audience. Her
favorite vehicle is a touring car in
which on Sunday afternoons she is
given to long excursions in the coun-
try. This is equipped for every kind
of weather and has ample facilities
for luncheon baskets and other Access
series of an outing. All of Miss Cros-
mans automobiles We're made to order
and have numerous appointments and
conveniences of her own devising.

Wouldn't Tell,

The late Prof, w. G. T. Shedd of
Andover Theological seminary and the
late Hon. John F. Deane, we'll known
in Southern Vermont as lawyer and
politician. We're classmates and boon
companions at the university of YER
mont.
One night. returning very late from
convivial party, they met one of the
college professors, who promptly gave
chase. Deane, upon whom good living
had not then had its effect, was a very
active man, and has no difficulty in
escaping. Shedd, however, whether
from deeper potations or some other
cause, was less fortunate, and soon
measured his length on the campus.
The professor seized him by the COL
lar and sternly demanded, who was
that with you?"
With earnestness, though with diff
Guilty. Shedd replied, Il (hic) | won't
tell you"
Very well,' said the professor,
then shall run after him and find
OUT
Raising himself with great effort
upon his elbow, Shedd defiantly re-
torted: You may run af'er him, you
may run af'er him, but you can't cash

Undue Credit.

Years ago, according to Harper's
Weekly, while the Rev. Mr.. Shanda-
ioupe was student at the seminary,
he undertook, one vacation season, to
sell fire extinguishers. His pleasing
address and affability enabled him to
many many sales. However, he en-
countered the usual rebuffs which are
the experience of all agents. The
theological student had gained access
to the Office of a surly broker, and
forthwith began expatiating on the
deluging powers of his Incompatible
fire extinguisher. ITO h with it,"
roared the broker, fiendishly. "Oh,
my dear man." expostulated Shanda-
loupe, this extinguisher does not
deserve the extreme virtue with which
you credit it."

The spectacle of Judge of the
supreme court airing his personal
opinions as to the fitness of certain
party nominees in the columns of the
daily press of the state is by no means
an elevating one, but when, as in the
case of Judge Engerud, he threatens
to take the stump and use his best
endeavor to thwart the will of the
convention at the polls, or, failing in
this. to resign from the bench, not
only detracts sadly from the dignity
of his high office. but exhibits his
petty spleen in a most undignified
manner. Engerud's judgment in this
case may be superior to that of
SO6 duly accredited representatives
OF the republicans of the state,
but we Very much doubt it. OF
one thing the gentleman can rest
assured and that is that should he con-
tinue to allow his personal spite to
dominate his Judgment and common
sense it will net take him very long
to convince the public that he would
be doing the state an inestimable SER
vice by rendering his resignation forth
with. Possibly the supreme bench
might survive the shock.

Their Hotel Neiehbors.

At certain Denver hotel lives q
very charming little widow, who has
many masculine admirers. The other
day she was asked by one of them to
go out in the afternoon and play ten
mis-. At the courts she met man who
struck her fancy. So, between sets,
she and the new man would sit on the
grass and talk. 1t was during one of
these intermissions that he said: by
the way, Mrs. Blank. may l ask where
you live?"
ITO be sure" she replied. II live
at the such-and-such hotel"
That's queer" he said. 81 have
room there. too. However, I've had
it only week. I'm thinking of chang
ing. There is woman in the next
room to mine who comes in every
night about IL o'clock and wakes me
up with her noise II they don't GUST
her I'm going.
Il don't blame you,' said the little
widow. Il know just how you feel.
There's man in the next room to
mine who comes home full almost
every night and knocks the furniture
around. I'm going to make a COM
plant about him II he doesn't reform"
After the games had been played
the new young man walked down to
the hotel with her and her escort.
They went for their kegs together. The
clerk handed them 202 and 2O4. Their
rooms were adjoining.

Vaudeville.

The musical Reeds are to appear
next Tuesday with the Orpheum COM
pany and they certainly ought to gain
all kinds OF friends in this city, as
they present an act made up entirely
OF standard musical achievements,
playing a number of difficult instru-
ments and introducing new instru-
ment, the seven bell trumpet. that bids
fair to be as indispensable in n band
as the sousaphone. The Garnellas,
eccentric comedians. present Il clever
acroba,ic sketch entitled My Brother
Johnny"
Corinne will appear with a new
song. beautifully illustrated Ernie
and Honnegger present grotesque
act that they term a one-legged novel;
ty. The kinetescope has some sur
prtses in store for the patrons, the
leading picture being chase after a
runawaymonkey. There are quite a
number of others as we'll. Just as good
as ever.

not specially prepared for the English

waukee banker now serving ten
year sentence in the federal prison for
defalcation. 1t is stated this applica-
ton will be based on the claim that
the prisoners health is failing, and
the plea will be made that it will SIM
ply be an act of mercy to remit the
balance OF his sentence and restore
him to his family.
OF course 1t is easy to understand
that the personal friends of Mr.. Bige-
low would be greatly pleased to have
executive clemency shown in the case
of the Milwaukee banker. but the jus
tice or propriety of such action may
we'll be questioned.
Although MIR. Bigelow was an es-
Unable citizen in many ways before
he became involved in the trouble
which ended in his disgrace and en-
forced retirement from society. the
seriousness of his offense cannot be
disputed, any more than his personal
responsibility for violation OF the laws
His sentence was also considered very
moderate. under the circumstances.
and Il tendency toward leniency was
shown throughout his trial and in the
treatment which has been accorded
him since his arrival at prison.
He has served less than two years
ami under good behavior will complete
the balance of his sentence in about
five years. so that it cannot be consid-
cred any great hardship al least in
the sense of injustice to require him
to finish his time.
To pardon him on the specious plea
OF i'll health would be to arouse much
unfavorable criticism. and give the
appearance of favoring prisoner
simply because he was man OF means
and influence. with powerful friends
to interest themselves in his behalf.
If his sentence was just at all there
should be no more leniency shown
toward Bigelow than to any other
prisoner convicted OF Il great and
represensible crime against society.

SOME CITY EYESORES.

In every city, especially in the
northwest, are to be found number
of eyesores in the shape of vacant lots
which are allowed to grow up in
weels and which become dumping
ground for all sorts of rubbish includ-
ing broken. down wagons, discarded
machinery and dilapidated small build
fRgs.
Grand Forks has some of these. An
Illustration of the matter may be seen
at the corner of University avenue and
Third street. where the bill board is
erected. That corner is a disgrace to
the city. 1t is piled up with rubbish
and the rank vegetation which has
0vergrown the entire corner resen-
bles the appearance of a deserted
farm house.
That is merely sample of several
lots having the same appearance. 1t
is question as to how to remedy the
evil in many instances. Many of the
lots owned by non-residents who are
holding them for the raise in value
which will come through the improve
ment of nearby property by those who
are building up the city. Often these
people do not even pay the taxes on
the property, allowing them to accu-
mulate against the same and when a
sale is made fixing the price so that
the purchaser pays fixed amount and
the accrued taxes
In this way all money investments
in the property are avoided and the
increase in value being more than the
accumulation. 1t is difficult to avoid
the conditions under the law of this
state. The sale of real property UNI
der the delinquent tax law is very
cumbersome proceeding, and at the
same time on which gives little benefit
to the individual who purchases at a
tax sale. The right of the owner to
redeem without a sufficient damage
compensation to the purchaser as we'll
as the long time allowed for redemp-
ton and the consequent uncertainties
of title derived from tax purchase,
mike it difficult to enforce tax liens
against property.
Under these conditions there is no
means OF enforcing improvements of
property without doing so for the adj
vantage Of the owner. He having no
interest in the improvement of the
city is willing to permit his property
to be used for a dumping ground and
to be disgrace to the city. 1t is
impossible to appeal TO his civic pride
for he does not have any. If it were
within the power of the municipal
authorities to levy tax against such
property to keep it clean of rubbish
and to have the vegetation removed,
and such tax could be collected by a
sale of the property in reasonable
time, with short time limit for redemp-
tiOn and clear title after tax pur-
chase, the cities of the northwest
could be materially improved in ap-
pearance and at the same time they
could collect the taxes really due from
those who are disposed to profit by
the efforts of the progressive citizens
to improve the town.
