Horses More Valuable than Men.

1t used to be a favorite saying with
temperance orators that horse would
not get drunk, but 1t seems that horses
have dogenerated in recent years.
Reports from the northwestern states
says that horses up there have taken
to eating "loco weed," plant which
has effects that they like as well as
the topper likes his bitters; in fact they
will eat nothing else as long as they
can find it. 1t is deadly poison and
kills them In u short time. The farm
crs are going to work to extcrminate
the weed. We haven't heard a word
OF such actions interfering with tho
personal liberty Of the horse to eat it,
self to death If it wants to, or the prop
er control OF the weed being an i'm
provement over absolute prohibition.
The rule seems TO be, "Wheueycr you
see a loco weed, kill It," The difference
is evidently, that horses are valuable,
while men and women have no fixed
price In the market, Prairie City,

often good swimmers OF that type
drown, don't you. Their drowning is
imputed to cramp, but you will never
find one OF the drowned with his ears

"Why? III tell you why. Because
it isn't cramp that causes these drown
ings. It's a perforation OF the ear
drum, followed by Inconsistencies due
to the pressure OF the water.
"Cramp isn't after all, the deadly
thing it is made out to be. II you

MOTHERS.

III was Boston child, OF course, who
said when somebody asked her what
she considered mothers good for:
"Why, you see, God couldn't be
everywhere, and so he just had to
make mothers"
But it takes grace TO be good
mother, how doesn't it? She must be
wise and patient and good .na,ured and
serene and always ready to comfort
and help without losing her self-con.
troll. Prof. Swing once said he knew
many mothers whose children were
we'll washed, well scoded, we'll dressed,
and well whipped, but few whose chill
dren were inspired, and it certainly
takes grace TO lead such life before
tho children that they shall be inspired.
Ii you have good, healthy children,
full of animal spirits and frolicking
with fun and life, be thankful for it
even If they do make more noise some
times than it seems possible to bear;
for the weak and nervous child is ten
fold more of problem. There are
two general types of nervous children;
the active child always on the go, in
quisitive, and acquisitive but delicate
as the mimosa leaf, shrinking back into
itself at the first repulsc or harsh word,
and the pale, quiet, alfcctionate child,
thoughtful, responsive, reserved. The
child of the first type may be the en-
bryo philanthropist or leader of Grim.
inals, inventor or social iconoclast, as
his training tends, while the child of
the second type develops into the phil
osopher, the poet, tn man Of letters, or
the misanthrope, the reclusc, the an
archist rs the case may be. One of the
greatest mistakes in training nervous
child Is to think that strength can come
through opposition. Such child
should be guided, not driven. II afraid
to sleep in the dark, 1t should not be
forced to sleep in an unlighted room.
Timidity should not be ridiculed, but
patiently explained and argued away.
Tonics, gool, digestible food aud
open air life, avoidance of long hours
OF study, frequent changes Of air are
all not only serviceable, but one might
say indispensable in the transforna-
tion of the child Of nervous disposition
into the well poised man or woman. By
injudicious treatment such child may
be made 10 grow up physical and NOR

all the world. Under wise manage
ment the same child may develop into
a lovable type, gentle, affectionate,
sensitive and strong.

THE SCHOOL OF THE OZARKS
Work Will Begin Immediately and be
Vigorously Pushed.

Rev. A. Y. Beatie returned yester
day from Kansas City, where the com
mittee failed TO award the contract for
the first building which is to serve for
a home for the School Of the Ozarks, all
the bids being considered much too
high. This, however, is not to be
permitted to retard the erection of the
proposed school building. The exca-
waiting and quarrving will probably
begin Monday morning, and when that
is done the construction will be placed
in the hands OF competent superin-
tendent, and pushed with all possible
vigor, to the end that school may open
January first, according to program.

HabeasCorpus Frees Davidson and Defeats
Justice In Montana.

After spending ten days iu the
county Jail, Grover Davidson is once
more breathing the air of free man,
the authorities having failed to hold
him on the strength of representations
that he is wanted in Taney county,
Mo-, for some alleged criminal ofrense.
The habeas corpus proceedings insti-
,uted in his behalf by Attorney Ha-
thorne resulted entirely different than
anticipated by those Interested in the
prosecution. Judge Loud last night or
dered the discharge of Davidson, after
hearing the arguments of counsel for
the young man and County Attorney
Wilson, the latter representing Sheriff
}. w. Reese, who came here from Mis-
souri, to get Davidson.
Attorney Hathorne cited court de-
cisions In support of his contention
that the prosecution had not made a
proper showing. The mere assertion
that Davidson committed a crime,
without proof that an indictment had
been returned against the accused and
other legal steps taken, counsel urged
was insufficient to hold him, even
though the requisition from the gov
ernor of Missouri has passed through
the hands of Governor Toole in q
regular manner.
Judge Loud accepted this view of
the matter and granted the applica-
tion for Davidson's release.
Davidson was arrested August 1
upon information contained in a telc-
gram from Sheriff Reese, the message
stating that Davidson was wanted in
Forsyth, Mo-, on the charge of break
ing away from an officer. The sheriff
came to Billings and waited few days
for the reQuisition papers. In the
meantime habeas corpus proceedings
were started in behalf of Davidson, re-
sulting as stated,
From Sheriff Reese it was learned
that Davidson stood convicted of shoot
ing into a dwelling house at Forsyth,
Mo. This happened several weeks ago.
He was fined $50, but did not pay it,
as he got away from the sheriff jus,
after sentence was imposed, and came
TO Billings.
Sheriff Reese will leave for his home
some time today.
