ODD EPITAPH is AN ENIGMA.
Eccentric Man Has Strange Inscrip-
ton ON Monument to Parents.
Minneapolis, Nov. 27.-"Al1 men

are born with tattling tongues. but
blessed is the man who minds his
own business"
Isaac e. Wheeler, whose death oc-
eurred a few days ago at Mankato,
caused this enigmatic inscription TO
be carved on a beautiful monument
to his parents. erected in Sterling
cemetery a week preceding his death.
Wheeler is said TO have been even
more eccentric than Is indicated by
his selection of that Inscription for
the monument Statements published
here concerning him are to the effect
that before the death of his crippled
father he admonished the old man
that there was an easy and quick way
out of his troubles, and that he in
formed his mother in her declining
years that her days of usefulness
were over and that she was trial to
those about her.

South Dakota Federal Patronage
Settled in Unique Way By Roosevelt.

Washington. d. c., Nov. 27.--The
newest method of dispensing federal
patronage was exempAhed by Presi-
dent Roosevelt. There Is nothing
complex or intricate in the process.
which consists in the simple expe-
dent Of drawing lots or tossing a
coin.
Senators Gamble and Kittredge
both Of South Dakota. have been a,
swords points politically for a long
time. They are Republicans, but
each has sought TO eliminate the
other from the stage of politics with
the result that while both still are in
the senate all federal appointments
have been tied up.
Presidents Joke Bears Fruit.
At 10 O'Clock Senator's Gamble and
Kittredge met in the presidents Office
Neither knew the other was 10 be

method of settling your differences.

fists in the air

The president slowly opened the

paper lay upon bis palm. Then he

paper that lay upon the right palm

OLD MONEY
COMING OUT OF HIDING PLACES
IN SOCKS AND DEEP HOLES.
Bits of Script Bring Premium at
Local Retail Stores-Gold Coins
That Are Dirty.

The money stringency is bringing
out all sorts Of quaint coins Colo
that bears the unmistakable marks
of dirt, showing that 1t has been
buried, paper money with the odor of
old 'sox and odd silver of every de-
scription. One man in paying for
purchases at one Broadway store this
week rendered some script small
change. He had a five-cent bill. a
ten, fifteen. twenty and twenty-five
cent bill. and they were readily ac-
oepted. Some of the clerks in the
establishment wanted them and paid
a premium for them. It is safe to
say this is the first paper money of
less than the dollar denomination
seen for some time in this vicinity.

into this vortex of sensuous creation
that the innocent and guileless Paisi-
fal is lurei by Klingsor, intent upon
his moral downfall. And yet we see
how this noble youth is enabled to
resist all the allurements and tempta-
tons that beset him. How, even when
the arch temptress, Kundry, now

wondrous beauty and voluptuousness,
Is powerless to attract him. We sec
