POPULAR CIGAR sT4Na.

How the Stock is Kept Ju Right for
Immediate Consumpt ora
The National Cigar Stands Ccmpany's en-
terprise is being watched with intense inter
est by cigar and tobacco men all over the
world. The general impression is that it will
revolutionize the cigar-retailing business.
Judging from the verdict of smokers, the
company has fulfilled its promise to supply
the citizens of Ellsworth with high-grade
cigars at prices heretofore unknown in this
section. The stand which was recently
opened in e. G. Moore's drug stone has been
in operation long enough to prove Jnat it has
set high standard of cigar quality and at
the same time reduced prices.
The stand itself continues to attract atten-
ton because of it's unusual appointments.
Purely as an attractive display of cigars it
excites comment among smokers and nom
smokers alike. But its practical use as q
preserver of cigars is of course it's main
feature. Its scientific construction that
automatically maintains atmospheric condi-
lions best suited to cigars seems to have
done away with the usual cigar-stand COM
plants of ''too dry" or "too moist"
Even the sceptics are forced to acknowledge
that the 1000 druggists in the National Cigar
Stands Company can and do buy in quantities
sufficiently vast to make low prices possible.
The smokers themselves are learning by
direct personal experience that the prospects
are bright that their cigar bills will be cut in
in half.-Adpf.

WHO MARRIED WE|Tz
GIRL AND BEN
FLYNN?
Anxious Thompson Father in
City Looking for His Daugh-
ter, Barbara.
LEFT HOME ON OCT. 10
For Purpose Of Marrying Her
Lover-No Trace of Them
Since.

Jacob Weitz prominent farmer re-.
siding five miles west of Thompson,
N. D. is in the city today looking
for his daughter AMI a man named
Ben Flynn with whom 1t is alleged
she left the parental roof on the night
of the 10. The case is Il peculiar cne,
in that the man seemed highly re-
spectacle, courted the girl afterwards
took her with him presumably to be
married in this city, and row no trace
of the twain can be found.
Flynn is a stationary engineer, and
worked for Weitz for nearly two years.
He claimed Donaldson, MIMI. as his
home and gradually Won his way into
the affection of the daughter, Miss
Barbara. When Flynn left the Weitz
home a week ago last Friday. he told
the parents that as aoon as lie was
married to the. girl lie would write,
but SO far the old people have lleal
not word.
Mr.. Weitz said this morning that he
could see no cause for the enforced
silence, and for this reason he is now
investigating. Inquiries at the office
Of Judge Hassell in this city reveal
that no license has been issued the
pair. Telephone messages to the clerk
Of court at Crookston show the same
state of affairs in Polk county. 1t is
believed either the pair have dis
pensed with the formality of the mar
riage license, or else they sought other
fields whence to have knotted the
solemn ties of matrimony.
Chief Lowe and Chief Franklin are
working on the case.

He AND JUD BOTH "H|KED''
E. A. Williams, Territorial Represen.
tative In City, Came Here First
In 1872.

E. A. Williams, U. 8. surveyor gen.
eral. with headquarters at Bismarck,
is in the city for a few days and en-
tertained the Evening Times with
some of his experiences in the days
when he and Jud LaMoure represented
the present state of North Dakota in
the territorial legislature at Yankton.
They were the only representatives at
that time. Mr.. LaMoure reached
Yankton from the Pembina country on
snow shoes, while General Williams
travelled from Bismarck over the ice
of the Missouri on foot, the trip re-
quiring fourteen days, and many of the
nights being spent around camp fires
The. two representatives from the
northern section of the territory did
not communicate with each other on
the trip and were almost strangers
when they met in the first territorial
assembly. incidentally, it will be re-
membered that the sessions were held
in store room. and that while the
future statesman debated the wisdom
of laws while seated on store boxes,
the trader sold goods to the Indians
and the few white settlers over the
rude counter.
General Williams first came to Da-
kota in 1872, and has resided in the
state ever since.

on a motion to indefinitely postpone.

was again lined up with the foes of

The third attack was House bill No.

law by striking out the clauses pro
vlding imprisonment as part of the
penalty for violating the law, the pas
sage of which bill would have abso-
lutely nullified the prohibitory law.
The first test vote came on March 2.
when Mr. Burke moved to lay on the
table motion to indefinitely POSTPONE,
and on roll call voted AYE" (p. 633).
On March Bird the bill came up again.
Mr.. Burke leading the fight for it, but
action was deferred until the next
day, March 4th, when upon another
motion to indefinitely postpone and to
lay that motion on the table, Mr..
Burke again voted aye" (p. 71D.
On second motion to indefinitely
postpone. Mr.. Burke voted "No" In.
713). Oliver of Ransom then moved
that the bill be made a special order
for Saturday following, which, IL
adopted, would kill the bill, as the ses-
sion of the legislature expired by force
of law on Friday. Mr.. Burke, fighting
to the last, moved to lay the motion
upon the table Up. 713) which motion
was lost, and Mr.. divers finally
passed, and for that session the fight
against the prohibitory law was over.

.BAC0h's LILAC HEDGE FARM
The Senator VIII Move Family There.
on and Make 1t His Home
Hereafter.

]. D. Bacon has decided to become a
genuine farmer and will soon move to
his beautiful rural place known as the
Lilac Hedge farm near the city, where
he will devote his energies and time
to the raising of fine stock and diver
sified farming. The Lilac Hedge
farm is known throughout the state as
one OF the best kept, artistic and pros
porous modern farms Of the entire
northwest. The owner has been at
great expense to stock 1t with the fin
est blooded cattle to be found in the
country, and his herd of blooded cat
tie have been the admiration Of thous-
ands of spectators at every fair
where they have been exhibited. For
several years Mr.. Bacon has been 80
planning his business affairs that he
could get onto the farm and give it
his personal attention. The fire which
destroyed his buildings few months
ago, somewhat disaranged his plans,
but he will not permit that to entirely
destroy them.
Mr.. and Mrs. G. w. Brundage, Mrs.
Bacon's parents, who have been living
in the city for some time, are moving
to the farm now, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Bacon will join them in the spring.
In fact, the old folks will make their
home with the Bacon's on the farm.
Mr.. Brown has many business inter-
ests in the city. but he will give much
of his, personal attention to the farm
next. season and will make it one of
the ideal farms of the state. :. New
buildings. will be erected and a num-
Der Of improvements will be made.
Every variety of farm products which
give any assurance of success, will be
demonstrated and tested and the farm
will be Of Unreasonable value as an
experiment farm for the people of the
valley and the entire state.
