COMPANY WAS "HELD UP"
Some Frank Evidence in the ClarL
Mine Case StartIes the Court.

DULUTH, Mimi, July 20.-In the
Clark mining case tried here the first
testimony of striking interest for
many days came out.
This is the case in which the Rog-
ers heirs are suing the company to re-
gain possession of land valued at ST.
100000, asserting that the company
and John M. McClintock, county at
torney here, and Attorney Wilson G..
Crosby conspired to defraud them.
Mr. McClintock was on the stand
and said frankly that they got every
cent out of the Clark Iron company
they possibly could. He also asserted
that E. w. Barles, who was working
with President Clark and in supposed
friendship and harmony with him,
was the person who put them on to
the fact that the Clark company had
a deed from the wrong Rogers and
that he got over s25 900 out of the set
Element they made with the company.
He admitted frankly that the COM
pany was held up, but says the heirs
got their proportionate share of the
money He also said at the time they
made the settlement he had doubts as
to whether they really had a good
claim and for a time was working a
bluff.

HOckETT DRUG co.
Government Loans Called In.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 20
Today is the last day of grace for the
return to the United States treasury
department of the call loans which the
government made to various banks
throughout the country last March to
relieve the stringency of the money
market. The whole loan placed by the
treasury department was $4,000, 900,
scattered throughout the country.
When placed with the banks, for which
municipal and other first-class securi-
ties were accepted at the time as col
lateral it was with the understanding
that the government would recall the
loans about July 10. To avoid embar-
rossment to the banks, however, Sec
rotary Shaw allowed the banks 10
days grace Nearly all the loans are
reported to have been returned dur
ing the last few days.

81 CAN'T MAKE A SOUND"
James Ray, Prominent North Dakotan,
Is Suddenly Stricken Dumb.

SURREY, N. D., July pa strange
case is that of James Ray, prominent
and prosperous farmer of this section,
who has been stricken dumb. All eff
forts of physicians to relieve him have
so far been unsuccessful.
Two weeks ago Mr. Ray saddled a
horse and rode to Minot, having some
business to transact. He returned
home later in the day, and after un-
saddling his horse went into the house
and sat down. 1t was noticed that he
said nothing to any member of the
family, but the significance of this was
not apparent at the time.
Soon afterward, however, it was no.
ticed that Ray was making strange
contortions with his face, and the fam
lily, growing alarmed, gathered about
him and piled him with qeustions. He
could make no reply, but finally Sc
cured paper and pencil and wrote, Il

declared that Mr.. Ray had suffered
paralysis of the larynX. He applied
remedies, but nothing he could do

Chief Justice SaysHe Sees Violence
In Constitution
WE NEED MORE PATRICK HENRYs"
CONSTRUCTIVE JUDGES ARE
cLAMoRED FOR TO STRETCH
MEANING TO COVER CASES.

The feature of the recent session of
the Arkansas Texas Bar association
was an address by Associate Justice
David ]. Brewer of the United States
supreme court on 1.-TWO Periods in the
History of the Supreme Court"
The two periods referred to were the
period of strict construction of the
Constitution, roughly speaking, the
period up to the civil war, and the
period of liberal construction. with it's
attendant tendency to functional en-
largement covering the period since
the civil war.
The speaker showed that during the
first period the Constitution and it's in
depreciation by Justice John Marshall
had been sacredly revered. Nothing
had been assumed by the judiciary and
the constructive jurist' was an I'M
known element. The rights of the
states had been jealousy guarded and
the general government held to the
powers granted it.
Since that period, however. a great
change had come. The federal govern
ment had become presumptive. The
individual had been made wholly sub
servient to the national idea.
1T is not how much the individual
would willingly give to his country,
but how much the nation could take
from him." said the speaker.
The colonial policy Of the govern
ment was held up to be a base traves-
ty on the original intention of our
forefathers who themselves fought
that they might be free from such
conditions. The government had come
to be considered a general dispensa-
tory, and Washington was the great
lobby camp of the world. More legis-
lation had been thrust upon congress
than it could attend to, and the gov
eminent had become a matter of COM
mittee legislation.
constructive" judges were clamored
for who could stretch and enlarge the
meaning of the Constitution. If there
were to be constitutional changes, the
speaker said, it should come by the
properly empowered channel, the peO
pc through their representatives. The
federal government is efficient, but
there are things greater than mere
efficiency. namely, the protection of
the individual and the upbuilding of
his sense of individual responsibility.
The speaker condemned in meas
ured terms the extension of police
powers, which had, he said, become
an ornniverous mouth with no sense
but to destroy, and had made
impotent the declaration of our right
to life, liberty, etc.
I'VE need more Haynes and Patrick
Henrys. and then we may again stand
in truth the land of the free and the
home of the brave" he concluded.

100000 IN ORNAMENTS.
Statue Of tho Virgin Studded With
Diamonds.

MADRID. July 2O.-Because the
wedding dress of Queen Victoria was
smeared with blood at the time a
borb was thrown during the passage
of the royal wedding procession, the
custom Of presenting the dress to the
statue of the virgin of Atocha, fol-
lowed for centuries by all the queens
of Spain, has been abandoned. The
new queens wedding garment will
now adorn a statute of the Virgin, the
property of the Spanish crown, which
was long in possession of the late
Queen Isabella, who for years kept it
in her bedroom.
AS it is the ornaments worn at pres
ent by this statue can be easily esti-
mated at 100000. Precious laces
adorn the body of the statue, while a
crown of solid gold, with seven dia-
mOnd stors, ornaments it's head. Dia-
mond tears are seen dropping from its
eyes and, as the statue represents Ma
ter DolOrOsa, seven StilettOS are i'm
bedded in its breast, each of them
having a handle Ornamented with
many precious stones
At the death of Queen Isabella the
statue was sent to the royal palace at
Madrid and was there placed in the
private royal chapel.t

For they knew these races were usually

Expert Smokers

The Japanese are experts on smoke
rings. and it is said in Japan it is con-
sidered no uncommon trick to blow
three rings of smoke in succession, the
second travelling through the first and
the third through both. Some stage per-
formers are credited with becoming so
expert in smoke blowing that they are
not only able to multiply the number
of rings thus made, but actually form
Japanese characters representing words
and sentences. One Japanese juggler,
it is declared, proposed to his wife by
forming the characters representing
his avowal of love through a thin
stream of smoke.

Don't Fold Your Arms.

BY folding your arms you pull the
shoulders forward, 1latten the chest
and impair deep breathing. The
position you hold your body in the
most of the time soon becomes its
natural position. Continuously fold
ing your arms across the chest will
develop fiat chest and a rounded
back, just as many another bad habit
works harm. Here are few hints which
you would do we'll to make habits: Keep
the hack of the neck close to the back
of the collar at all possible times. AL
ways carry the chest farther to the
front than any other part of the an
terror body. Draw the abdomen in
and up hundred times each day.
Take dozen deep slow breaths a
dozen times each day. To do these
exercises properly, dress loosely. You
cannot do them properly otherwise.
