Special to The Evenlng Times.
Glenullin, N. D., Feb. 26.-News has
been received of an attempt to lynch q
halfbreed by party of Russians, near
Leipzig, in Morton county, about forty
miles south of here.
The halfbreed and two or three Rus
SLAMS had been drinking in blind
pig. An alteration arose in which the
halfbreed stabbed, and perhaps fatally
wounded, one of the Russians. The
halfbreed attempted to escape, but
crowd of Russians pursued and cap
tured him.
The wretch was taken some distance
out of town, tied to small tree and
the forty or more Russians arming
themselves with powders, began to
stone him. A cowboy from a South
Dakota ranch rode up and attempted
to interfere to save the life of the
prisoner. He fired into the crowd and
wounded one man in the leg and roped
another and dragged him for some dis
tance. The remainder of the crowd
came to the rescue and the cowboy
had to flee to save his own life from
a volley of stones thrown at him.
This diversion, it seems, eventually
saved the life of the halfbreed, the
counsel of older heads among the Rus
slams finally prevailing.
The man who was stabbed is still
T.
who were injured in the attempt of the
cowboy to save the prisoner were not
seriously hurt and will recover.

Washington, Feb. 26.-It is expected
that Governor Magoon will refer to
Secretary Taft the question that has
been raised by the Cuban people of
the propriety of resembling the order
made by General Leonard Wood when
he was military governor of Cuba, pro-
hibiting cock fighting in the island.
Secretary Taft had such an experience
as Governor Magoon is now UNDER
going, when the former was governor
of the Philippines, and although he
was able to prevent cock fighting in
Manila, so deeply seated was the love
of this sport that he was obliged to
refrain from interfering with this
ancient institution outside of the capi-
tai Hence every holiday saw a pill
grinlage of citizens into suburban
towns to enjoy the sport. 1t is said
that Governor Magoon may decide TO
follow Secretary Taft's example in
this matter.

CARE OF THE BLANKETS.
NssdfuI Precautions to Be Taken
When Washing Them.

Blankets are difficulty to many
people, mostly because they cannot
make up their minds as to how often
they should be washed or how they
should be treated. In many houses
they are only washed once a year, at
the inevitable spring cleaning; but
somehow that does seem rather too
rare a proceeding. On the other
hand, 1t is really not necessary to
have them washed more than twice
a year; but they must have proper
care In the interval in the shape Of
airing, shaking. etc. II washed at
home they can be got up to perfection,
whereas by sending them out there
Is always the risk Of shrinking. A
washing machine is very good for
this purpose, especially as they should
never be rubbed by the hand: in fact
when there is no machine, and house
wives care for the well-being Of their
goods, they are always treated with
what Is commonly called q dolly"
This is d weIl-known continuance, by
means Of which the blanket is well
shaken and worked about in the tub,
so that 1t Is thoroughly cleaned with.
out being touched with the hands.
The water should only be lukewarm,
and no soda must be used--a little
washing powder or white soap well
lathered in the water is all that will
be required.

This grape-sugar is not poured over
the granules, as some people think,

the unsolicited appearance OF the

THERE IS A REASON.
The Medical Times Explains Why
Doctors Oppose Patent Medicines.

The Medical Times for April in q
moment of frankness explains the
whole opposition of physicians to pat
ent" medicines which are taken with
out prescription, in the following
words:
1--WE will hardly repeat here the
specific statement to the effect that
in one year $62,000,00O has been ex-
pended on patent medicines in the
United States. Enough to give every
practitioner in the country yearly
income Of $4,000. In the face Of such
facts as these, all talk of love of hui
mainly. altruism, self-abnegation and
the like becomes cheap and nauseat.
ing. 1t appears to us that such bun.
coAbe should give place to homely
common sense"
Reliable authority states that the
gross amount of the patent" medi-
cine business Is about $40,000,000 In
stead of $62,000,O 900 but taking the
Medical Times figures as correct they
represent an outlay Of considerably
less than 81 per capita for home medi-
cation. The cost of doctors fees ex-
elusive of medicines except such as
are dispensed for the same period,
probably was approximately $230.000.-
600. This is reached by allowing an
average income of $4,000 to each Of
the $4,000 physicians in the United
States. Even allowing that a gross
business of s62.OOO,000 is to be divid-
ed between $4,000 physicians the in
come of each would not be increased
more than $40.
