ROSCHELL GOES FREE.
Case in District Court Against Fake
Doctor Dismissed.

/
The criminal case OF State VS. A. Ros-
chell, for obtaining money under false
/ pretenses, was called at District court on
Wednesday afternoon, and was dismissed
j upon motion of the county attorney.
Uounty Attorney Madison stated that in
his own mind there was no doubt OF
Roschell's guilt, that If any man ought
to be in the penitentiary he believed
] Roschel shoald be there, but that, after
carefully considering the case he did not
believe that it would be possible to secure
u conviction.
Roschel is what Is called travelling
or fake doctor. 1t seems that he con-
tracted to cure crippled boy In Wheat
land township, and after securing pay
ment for tue treatment dissapered.
Ii 1t could be proven that Roschell is
not physician the case could be made
stick, but from what can be learned Ros-
hell probably studied medicine an was
physician of some sort before he be-
cams CRATER. In such case he
might prove himself guilty only OF
breech of contract.
] Whether or not Roschell returned the
money he swindled the Wheatland MAJ
out of, the Globe Republican does not
know. Suce an action, II be did, did
not or would not have saved him from
| prosecution.
The Roschell case, even though he
could not be legally punished, ought to
serve as warning TO everyone in Ford
county against patronizing travelling or
unknown doctors. The honest doctor,
the physician Of ability, is seldom on the
wing. He may change location oacasian
/ ally, but II he comes into town or coun
Try be comes as settler, and be counts
his acquaintance as valuable.
About the worst CRATER In the whole
diversified mess OF graft games, Is the
fake doctor. He takes advantag eof peo-
ple, when sickness has burdened their
judgement when they are ready like the
drowning, man to catch at straws

A Tree That ls Boon 10 Travellers.
Aneients Liked the Poplar.

One of the most remarkable trees
in the world is the travellers tree,
which grows in Madagascar. Its
leaves are so large that they are
used for partitions, and also for the
walls of houses, being in some cases
five feet in width and eight feet in
length. The property of the tree
that gives ii its name, however, is
that il affords pure, pleasant wateT>
even in the driest time. BY pierre
ing the thick part of the leaf stalk a
quart Vi this huid may be obtained
at once.
The popular tree was Of consid-
cradle note in the olden time. 1t
was "a favorite tree with conqucrors,
who often wore branches of it upon
their heads during their triumphs.
The idea is derived from the lcrrnd
that Hercules bound his brow with
chaplet Of poplar leaves after his
famous contest with the r5jber
Cacus at Mount Aventinc. Among
the Greeks the white poplar was
dedicated to time, because its leaves
we're continually in motion and be-
cause the dark side was supposed
TO represent night and the light side
day.

A Question of Grammar.

A boy who has evidently not
studied his grammar as he should
have done asks the editor why it
is not right to say more hand
some" most handsome" or "more
pretty" most pretty" as, accord
ing to the rule, adjectives of more
than one syllable require the al
verbs "morc" and most in COM
pairing them. Because adjectNes
of two sylIables ending in silent
or in Y do not require the adver5,
in comparison. This is an exec
ton to the rule, and boys and girls
should remember that the exec,
tions to rule are ac important :
the rule itself. "Handsomer
''handsomest," "prettier," ''pret-
test" are the correct forms.

ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
Directions For Making Dill or Dutch
Pickles.

Take a big stone jar that will hold
at least four gallons, or a keg with
out a head. Select cucumbers from
six to eight inches in length, wash
and wipe carefully SO as not to
bruise. Add two pounds coarse salt
to three gallons of water, boil and
skim, replacing the water that
cyaporatcs so as to keep the same
quantity. Put layer Of cucumbers
in the bottom of the jar, with one
small African red pepper, bunch
of dill seed in stalk and LAYER Of
green grape leaves to cover. Pro-
coed in this way until the vessel is
filled. Then cover with a LAYER of
cabbage leaves. On the very top
put IA good, big fiat stone. Pour in
the hot salt and water and let the
vessel stand while a quiet fermenta-
tion takes place. In two or three
weeks the cucumbers are done and
should be transparent like amber,
with a subacld flavor.

stamps of the face value of one
half sen and sen respectively were
issued, and they were available for
postage of letters only on the day
of the great review. Not more
than one copy of each kind was sod

The Screen Door as an Index.

You can always tell whether
man is married or single when you
see him go through a screen door,
says the Wellington (Kan.) News.
If he is married he approaches the
door cautiously, glances nervously
around, then takes off his hat and
swipes it up and down the door two
or three times. He then quietly
opens the door about two inches,
squeezes himself through and closes
it with a quick snap. The length
of time he has been married may be
determined by the degree of fear
and nervousness indicated in his
countenance.

Selling Shoes According to HoyIe.

There is an enterprising dealer in
mems shoes in Boston who, at one
time, was accustomed to display
sticking out of each pair of shoes
in his window three new 81 bills.
The accompanying announcement
used to read something like this
"Three of kind beat two pair"
On one occasion a bright young
man undertook to get the better of
the dealer. Entering the store, he
said to the proprietor, "lou sell
shoes according to the rules OF
poker, ! see"
"Yes," was the reply.

Poor Children Of the Rich.

serted that over and over again
some new incident is thrown upon
the screen to prove that wealth and
happiness are not accordant.

other things, these people decided
upon bea aLtiful rug, for which they
paid $500,
This rug will be for the music

''and the children must never, no,
never, dare to run or play upon it."
The man nodded a limpid approval.

a man and wife were looking at
carpets, and they finally purchased
a twenty dollar rug for the parlor
of their home As they left the

NAMES OF SHIPS.
SO Many Are Identical That Much Con-
fusion Constantly Results.


Any horse owner may give his
horse whatever name he chooses, as
no law will prevent him doing so,
However, it is safe to presume that
in the case of a valuable animal
bred for racing purposes the owner
will take good care that the name
given the quadruped be such as to
create no confusion with that of
any other race horse. Newspaper
owners are debarred by the copy
right law from duplicating the
names of rival publications, and the
same restriction applies TO theaters,
shops, road houses, etc. Shipown-
ers enjoy, in common with horse
owners, the privilege of giving their
craft any name which may suit their
fancy. A look at the register, how
ever, will convince any one of the
poor imagination many owners have
displayed in naming their vessels
and what inextricable muddle has
resulted from the repetition of
names.
When a ships name is free from
duplication in the ships own coun-
try, the evil is not great, as the pre-
caution of referring to the nation
alitv of the vessel will avoid all con-
fusion. When, on the other hand,
the same names are given several
deep sea vessels flying the same flag,
the modern shipping trade Theseus
who ventures in this labyrinth with
out the thread of Ariadne in the
shape of clew as to some partlcu-
lars of the ship he is endeavoring
to identify finds himself batlled at
every turn and constantly facing the
Minotaur who appears in the shape
of doubt and needless anxiety. Brit
ish shipowners, as representing the
larger share of the total tonnage
owned in the world, have been re.
sponsible in no small measure fol
this state of affairs. Among the
names especially relished by them
those evoking memories dear to the
heart of the loyal Britain have, OF
course, been repeated with the
greatest alacrity.-Shipping Illus
