TIL" two important eleneut IF moral
character in a Judge are an earnest desire
to reach a just conclusion and courage
to enforce it Insofar as fear Of public
comment does not affect the courage OF a
judge, but only spurs him on to search his
conscience and TO reach the result which
approves Itself to his inrnCst heart, such
serves a useful purpose There

right freely to IN on their decisions

Grounds Will
Be Improved

AT the meeting Of the board
of trustees of the State School
for the Deaf, held the latter
part Of the past week, all the
members being present except
Mr.. Falahy, of Cando, it was de
cided to make noticeable i'm
provements in the grounds at
the school and with this end in
view the board had with them
at the meeting Mr.. j. v. Wich-
ler,s a landscape gardner Of
OWatonna, Mimi, who has a
wide reputation as an expert in
his line. He presented in de-
tail his plans for the grading
and laying out Of the grounds
which were quite elaborate and
complete and will require about
three years to work out as indi-
Gated on paper, but when COM
IpleIed the school I. will have
grounds which will be a source
of pride not only to it and the
city, but to the state at large.

School For Deaf
Awarded Prize

Superintendent D. F.. Bangs
has been notified that the North
Dak kotas school for the Deaf was
awarded a prize for the excel
lency Of its exhibit at the st.
Louis Exposition. The an
nouncement came as a surprise
to Mr.. Bangs, as the local school
had only money enough to cover
the most necessary expenses in
preparing the exhibit and when
the same was made it was done
with no thought Of prize but
rather from a feeling that the
North Dakota school had to do
something to keep in evidence.
Mr.. Bangs deserves much credit
for the manner in which this ex-
hibit was made. AS only ten
prizes were awarded all the
| schools in the country, goes to
show that the honor is a very
great one.

promising oung American, half
owner of the Sierra gold mine,
had part in which he was able
to display his versatility and he
won the house early in the first
act. Lyle Cowan, too made
quite a hit as Chauncy Ogle-

who always put his foot in his
mouth. Lyle surprised even his
friends in his part. Miss Adam

admirer Of rank, took off the self.
admiring society lady to perfec-
,tlon and won considerable ap-
plause. Miss McIlfresh, new to
the Devils Lake stage, earned a
place we'll worth having. She.
has good stage presence and an
easy, charming manner in the
style Of character. she portrayed
as Sierra Bengline a praire rose.
Miss Steichen as Lady Ginnevere
Landpoore an English primrose,
learned rapidly the ways Of the
Westerner and received well de-

the whole the piece ran smoothly

a!iI'gO All / and Office
Kept Opened

The Fargo Land offic 8 will not
be closed as reported it would
! be. Commissioners Richards Of
the u. S. land Office under date
OF February 8, 1906, replies to
the Bismarck Commercial Club,
in answer to the protest sent by
the club against the proposed
segregation Of five tiers Of town
ships in all 100 townships
from the Bismarck land district
to be attached to the Fargo dis
! trict. The commissioner says
that the change Of boundaries
referred to was rec nmended by
this office after careful consider
alton. and was directed BY the
president by executive order Of
January 81, 1906. It is not con-
sidered that the transfer of lands
@ from one district to another
materially affects the settler, or
puts him to any great inconven
fences or expense, because a visit
to the land Office is not required
Ito Institute or perfect an entry
or contest, as the law authorizes
the settler to go before a u. S..
commission oner or judge or clerk
of a court of record residing in
the county in which his land is
situated, and make all necessary
affidavits required by law and
the regulations of the depart
anent.
The register and receiver Of.
the Bismarck land office have
I also received a letter from the
general land office under date Of
February 8, saying that the
change in the boundary Of the
Bismarck land district will take
effect May 1, and adds the
\ ranges 81 and II to the Fargo
district. The tract books and
other records pertaining to the
lands in the district affected will
be forwarded to Fargo prior to
that date and no contests or final
I proof hearings will be had at
] Bismarck after April 80 coming
from the land in question. This
transfers to the Fargo district
about 100 townships containing
approximately 800, 900 acres of
government land still open to
settlement. 5is
According to the above deci-
6 sion of the u. S. land commits
sioner the three western ranges
in Stutsman county which have
been included in the Bismarck
land district will be transit
to the Fargo district as well as
the two eastern ranges in Kidder
county, Nos. 20 and II. The
StutsmaT ranges are 67, SO and
SO. Attorneys and others here
claim the change will be d great
convenience to all interested in
& government land matters and
that the Bismarck land office
having SO great a volume Of
business could not expedite mat
tiers as rapidly as can be done
with the territory in the Fargo
district. ,,s3s .5.

BURR ACT MAY NOT BE TESTED.
Mr.. Cozier Believes Suffolk County Should
Have Right to Sell Water

". c. Cozier. the Deputy Water Commissioner,
who has tapped the water supply OF Suffolk
County to bring about test action on the con-
stitUtionaty OF the Burr act, said last night that
he believed the people Of Suffolk would not try
to test Brooklyn's right to take the water. He
said:
This great volume of water is of absolutely no
use to the people of Suffolk, and I believe that
If a vote Of the people were taken they would al
most unanimously approve our taking 1t. Why
If We had all that additional water we would
have enough for Brooklyn and could spare Man
haitian 100000, 900 gallons daily besides
The only legitimate objection 10 our taking it
should come from Great South Bay. From
present five wells pumping more than
million gallons a day. I would very much like TO
get the Burr act tested, but 1 doubt If Suffolk
County win consider the game worth the candle,
especially in view OF the fact that a bill advo
eating the repeal of the act is now before the
Legislature. The people up there have no use
for the water, but it Is 10 their advantage 10
have Brooklyn grow and become a better market
for their farm produce 1 think the people of
Suffolk have much right TO sell US water as
the owners Of a Saratoga spring have. The Burr
act is evidently in restraint Of trade.

PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL
Nike Donlin Suspended-Yankees'
Game Agdin Postponed

Memphis. March 15.-Nike Donlin. the Giants
fast centre fielder, has been suspended indeh-
nitely By John J. McGraw. the manager OF the
team for iafractions Of the training rules he
announced this late last night. In speaking OF
the subject he said:
did not like 20 discipline Donlin. as he IS
valuable man, but Il has become, necessary, as
IL Is impossible TO play favorites- I have done
everything I could for Donlin TO keep him
straight and placed him with the New-York
Club when no one else wanted him There Is no
doubt that Donliu is one OF the finest ball play
ers in the game to-day in hitting and fielding.
I have put UP with lots OF things and have kept
out OF hts way not 10 find him doing some
thing that does not keep ball player in play
ing condition.
Donlin would not talk OF his suspension or
confirm a runor that he would play in an out
law league He is hardly likely TO take this
step however, in view OF recent rulings OF the
national commission, which were particularly
severe on those who played baseball in the out
law eagues
The weather here to-day was again unfavora-
bic for practice and the work was confined 10
two hours with the push ball The men went
OUT 10 Red Elm Park about noon. but were
back al the hotels shortly after o'clock.
