SeviQne in Versailles.

The chateau at Versailles can now boast of possessing portrait of the celebrated Mime. de Sevigne, who was one of the brightest stars of the court of Louis XIV, and who. strange to say. was not represented by her portrait there. M de Nol- hac, the curator, has just supplied this deficiency, having found fine portrait of the marquise at the age of 35 years. The portrait, which is of great beauty, presents the famous let ter writer with the long curls she brought into fashion, and which bore her name, and she wears the pearl necklace she described in her letters to her daughter

MADE IT SEEM PLEASANT.
Lawyer Talked Eloquently of Stay in
 the "Pen."

T gave such talk to clientS of mine not long ago on the pleasant fea- lures of prison life," said prominent local attorney recently. that l actual ly got to thinking for little while it would be great lark to spend few weeks in some good penitentiary.
 You see, the fellow was guilty, and l knew it. 1 didn't see how it would be possible to clear him, and I knew he would ct a lighter sentence by pleading guilty. But I had job try ing to talk him into changing his plea to guilty. He said he didn't think he would ever get reconciled to life in the penitentiary.
 T told him that, of course, there was a certain amount of prejudice against living in penitentiary, but that it always struck me that it wouldn't be half bad if man went with his mind made up to like it.
 The regular hours ought to be a great thing for man. told him. and if you are at all slick you can fix up some scheme to get out of hard work. Then you are clear out of the prosaic business affairs of the outer world. You go to bed at night knowing just what you will have to do the next day, and no one can get in where you are to molest you. You won't get more than couple of years, and that will just give you time to learn some good trade
 When l got through he decided to plead guilty, and 1 believe he was really looking forward to a year or two in the pen. n."-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

TOLD OF PRESIDENT M'klNlEY.
Incident ExempIifies His Devotion to
 His Wife.

The love which Mrs. Mckinley bore her husband was so much the ruling passion of her life that she was ex- tremely sensitive about him. In spite of herself, she was jealous even of the demands which the public made upon his time. Her love was matched by a most unusual devotion on the part of the president, as this heretofore unpublished incident illustrates. Col John N. Taylor, of East Liverpool, O., lifelong friend of Mir Mckinley, who was known in Washington as the man who had latch-key to the White House. took his little granddaughter Pauline Taylor. aged three, to the ex- ecutive mansion for visit.
 She climbed upon MT. Mckinley's knee and soon discovered his watch. Then she pried open the back of the case. as if looking for something.
 Why, MT. President" she lisped. It's empty. My papa has my mamma S picture in his watch"
 Mrs. McKinley's face fell on the in stant, but the president was not found wanting.
 T carry my wife's picture in my heart. Pauline" he said, quietly, and Mrs. Mckinley was all smiles again.

WATER.

Along with the ice famine comes threatened water famine We say threatened advisedly, because it can easily be averted by a sensible grasping of the situation.
 The extreme hot dry weather for the past ten days has caused decrease in the supply of the wells at the power house, and an increase in the amount of water necessary for practical purposes. Arrangements are being made by the town to relieve the situation, and it, as one factor, is doing all it can to that end. But the citizens can aid in the work, and 1t is the object of this article to tell what the town is doing and what the water patrons ought to do under the circumstances.
 The town has let the contract for an- other we'll at the power house, and work
  rives, which is expected every day.
 The town has contracted with the Ozan Lumber Go. to supplement the towns water supply with as much water from the Ozan wells as that in- stitution can spare without interference with it's own interests.
 The town has been forced to require the railroad company to only allow passenger trains to take water from the tank here, which is supplied from the stand pipe.
 And the town has beenIforced to shut off the street sprinkling until the situa- tion is relieved.
 But all this effort will be in vain if the water patrons continue to sprinkle gardens, lawns, and even cool off the hot sides of their homes from their yard hydrants. It is this use or abuse of the water privilege that is causing Sthe trouble With 1o0 or POO hydrants playing every evening for probably an hour at time, together with the necessary use of water, so depletes the supply that entire exhaustion is not un- likely, and even with the sacrifice the town is making would place the plant in condition that at times there might be no water for any purpose
 Let those, who are guilty of this habit, which is legitimate, but under the circumstances, foolish, stop it for two or three days, and we believe there would be no further trouble in the matter.
 Furthermore, many of the very people who are thus wasting the water have homes and other property, which may catch on fire at any time, and unless there is stop put to the practice men, toned, there would be no possible chance of fighting the flames.
 Take a sensible view of the matter and quit sprinkling your lawns and gar dens.

Senator Little. cand,d.cv


In commenting upon Col. Little 5
candidacy for United States senator
the Globe-Gazette, Of Wahpeton,
among IA number OF other rcompliment-
airy things, has this to say Of the
colonel:
He thoroughly understands all the
ins and-outs of legislation. lie has
been chairman Of the senate commit
tee on judiciary since statehood, hav-
ing been member of the senate since
that time. The statute Is filled with
laws enacted under Col. Little's legis-
lative mark Of approval. But very
few laws OF this state have been de-
clared unconstitutional by the SUI
preme court, which shows that the
judiciary committees of the lcgisla-
ture have been extremely careful
about sending questionable bills TO
the executive department."

Three 0auses Of Base Gall.

The Linton club went to Bismarck
last Saturday and played . series OF
three games with the team Of that
place. The first of the series was
pulled of Saturday afternoon and
should have been All easy victory for
the Lintcnites. But, after almost cinch-
Ing the game, a little poor base running
and some bad errors threw 1t away by
the score Of three to two. 1t was
nevertheless . close and interesting
contest. In the first inning the Reds
drew y single and two o-baggcrs and
only secured one run. Bismarck failed
to score until the fourth inning, when
two hits and stolen base netted .
run. They again scored twice in the
seventh on an error and two hits.
Linton made one In the seventh
through errors by the Capital City
crowd. w. Batter, OF Hazelton, and
Flanagan did the battery work for
Linton and Woodmansee and IA SOUTH
paw by the name Of Heinkes did the
same for Bismarck. In this game, as
we'll as those that followed, long
drives were much in evidence. Two
two-baggers we're made In this game.
In the two exhibitions the next after
noon total Of ten two. base hits were
made. The score by innings of the
first game Is as follows:
Linton. ......... 10 90 90 l 0 o. 9
Bismarck. ...... 90 o 1 o = DON 3
Sunday afternoon the second OF the
series was started. This was walk.
away for the Reds. Hanson, who
twirled for Fargo in the Northern
League last year and for the Oakes
aggregation this season, was OH the
rubber for Bismarck, and Ellert de-
livered the twisters for the Reds.
Hanson got all that was coming to
him in this game-being touched up
for eight hits in six innings, of which
four we're for two bases. Ellert passed
three, hit two and allowed five safe
ones, which, combined with seven err
rors, only netted four runs. The game
ended with the score nine to four In
favor Of the Linton bunch, the record
by innings being as follows:
Linton. ......... POOL l3llx- o.
Bismarck. ...... 0 o 90 l2 l o.
Now comes the sad story. AS soon
as the tirst Sunday game was over the
final one was called. Everything
started out beautifully, Kohl being
the first man up and drawing a two
bagger. But this was soon over when
the umpire called him out at the
plate, although 1t seemed to many
that he was entitled to a score. Bis
marck did nothing In the first inning,
but their fun began in the second.
Two bases on balls, one error and Q
hit gave them two runs. The game
stood this way until the fourth, when
Bismarck simply handed the Reds q
score by nice bunch of errors. In.
the fifth an error and asingle, followed
by a two-base hit by JOSS. the Hazel
ton man who was In center for Bis
marck, made Bismarck's score twice
as large. In the seventh single, a
fielder's choice and two two-basc hits
added three more runs to Bismarck's $
pile. Linton did not again score after
the fourth. In fact they did not again
hit safely after the first inning, Kohl
securing the only hit off the south
