a recent issue of an advertising
publication chronicles the return of
Gerald Pierce to his desk with the
Chicago Record Herald, after an
absence Of several months entailed by
a serious accident in an automobile
last fall. Pierce is the business
manager Of the Record Herald and so
well has he trained his assistants that
in his absence the advertising of the
paper has shown a healthy increase
and the circulation is booming.
Friends of Mr.. Pierce, who is son of
Ex-Governor Pierce and a former Bis
marcker, will be rejoiced that he has
SO far recovered as to return to
his work irrespective Of any business
considerations.

On the rrack.

The expression putting a witness
on the rack has an ancient origin
The courts had an unpleasant way OF
putting q refractory or unsatisfactory
witness on the rack. which was an
open wooden frame. upon. which was
laid the victim. His wrists and ankles
were tied to two rollers at opposite
ends Of the frame. The rollers were
then moved with levers until the ten.
sion caused the body to rise level with
the frame, and then questions were
addressed to the witness. IL he still
proved silent or IL his memory needed
refreshing, the rollers were moved
slowly until the wretch's bones started
from the sockets.

Must \ HUSTLE
If BISMARCK is TO HAVE "A
BALL TEAM FANS MUST
MOVE
ONLY FIVE DAYS REMAIN BE-
FORE THE TIME LIMIT
EXPIRES

If Bismarck intends to have ball
team of consequences this summer it
is up to the business men to take i'm
mediate action. The Tribune is
positive that it is the common opinion
of the citizens here that the Capital
City should be represented in the
North Dakota league about to be
formed Therefore it is important
that some one should make a start
to arrange the financial end without
any farther parley The conditions
are easy and Bismarck can easily
get in on this if some one will only
make the start.
On April 10th Mr.. w. J. Price of
Fargo, in response to various re
quests from different towns throughout
North Dakota and Minnesota called a
meeting at, Grand Forks of representa-
tives from Grand Forks, Devils Lake,
Minot, Bismarck, Jamestown, Fargo,
Crookston and Bemidji with the object
in view of organizing what might. be
called the Prairie League of Base
Ball Clubs
Represented at that meeting either
by proxy or in person was Minot,
Crookston, Grafton, Bemidji, Fargo,
Grand Forks and Bismarck. Tenn
porary organization was formed and
it was decided to form a league if
same could be done with the following
limitations: Salary limit not to ex-
coed $500 per month; each team to
guarantee $25 per game played on the
home grounds to the visiting team;
also rain guarantee of $25 per game;
each team to deposit in some desig-
mated treasury the sum of 5000 in
cash that they would go through the
season. The prospective season would
be on or about May 30th to August
18th. 1t was also decided at this
meeting that unless Bismarck could
induce jamestown to enter the pros
pectfve league it would not pay for
this league to consider Bismarck. The
same conclusion was arrived at re
garding Minot and Devils Lake as it
is the intention to keep compact
circuit with short mileage if this
league is formed. 4:
To complete the organization, if
Bismarck and jamestown go in, it
will be necessary to send representa-
tive to a meeting at Grand Forks not
later than the 9th inst, empowered
to act on the conditions named, and
be prepared at this meeting. to deposit
the $500 as guarantee that the
respective clubs will go through the
season and complete the organization,
agree ITO the $25 guarantee game, also
SIS rain guarantee II
The necessity of having Jamestown
in the league if Bismarck is a mem
her will be apparent because Of the
long distance to travel without a
break from Fargo, without stop at
either Jamestown or Valley City.

MUSIC AND SHORTHAND.
Two Lines of Work That Are Particu,
larry Bad For the Eyes.

Two Lines of Work That Are Particu-.
81 larry Bad For The Eyes.
"A St Louis oculist, chatting with
friends about the ms and outs Of his
profession, said that there were two
lines of work which for professional
reasons both the oculist and the OPP
5tician would be glad to see widely en-
couraged. One is music, particularly
piano playing. 5a
i Have you ever noticed, = said he,
"that the pianist's head as he sits up
right at the piano Is generally almost
three feet from the music? He reads
at long range. This of itself is bad,
involving as it does a continual strain
upon the eyes. If the pianist only sat
still, however, the case would not be
SO bad, but very few do. In executing
difficult passages or extended scales
they sway first to one side, then to
the other, sometimes foot in each
direction, lean back six inches, then
toward the music, all the time keeping
their eyes fixed upon the notes. and
curing all the changes of distance and
direction the delicate mechanism Of the
eye is constantly seeking to adjust it.
self to the distance so as to obtain the
clearest possible image of the notes.
The result is, of course, an overstrain,
and it Is a common thing when the
practice hour is over to see the mu-
stefan rub his eyes and to hear him re-
mark that music is bad for the eyes,
anyhow. 1t Is not good, indeed, for,
although in ordinary plano sheet music
the notes are large enough, the signs
of expression are often so small as to
cause an effort to see them properly,
and, besides, much piano playing, par
ticularly of the standard classics, is
done from small size editions, which
are to be had at much cheaper rates
than sheet music.
Shorthand work and typewriting
are as bad for the eyes in their way
as music. Most stenographers write
with medium pencil and in small
characters. The dots and dashes are
thus hard to decipher and themselves
strain the eyes. Then comes the tran
scription, which is worse. If stenog-
raphers would only learn to use type
writer as a pianist does the keyboard
that, is, to write without looking at the
keys the eye strain would not be so
severe, but very few Of them acquire
this degree Of confidence and proficien-
cy, SO the focus of the eye is always
changing, first reading the notes, then
dancing back and forth over the keys,
then looking at the typewriter page
and repeating these processes all day
long until the wonder is not that their
eyes are bad, but that they don't go
stone blind. If pianists would learn
to sit still while they are playing and
stenographers would acquire the art OF
using a typewriter without looking at
the keys, the demands on the time Of
the oculist and the services Of the OPP
tician would be lessened very materi-
ally, but as it is these two classes are
q great help both to the specialists and
to the man that makes spectacles, fur
nishing more business than any one
would suppose who is not in the pro-
fession. st. Louis Globe Democrat. Is.

FIGHT OVER OOG'S COLLAR

duced in Police Judge McAllister's
court Saturday afternoon Rags the
tramp dog, whose tax was paid snort
time ago by his boy and girl friends
in this city, was instrumental In hav-
ing the ill-will of two neighbor fami-
lies.
1t appears that the boys of John
Dalheim and viii VanPatter have had
several fstic encounters of late. In
fact they have become so frequent that
the elder Dalheim took matters in
hand Saturday and proceeded to the
VanPatter home where he endeavored
to express his thoughts in the vilest
of language.
Dalheim was arrested by complaint
of VanPatter, and when the facts be.
came known it was found that the
Dalheim boys claimed the collar of
Rags" and the VanPatter boys said
that they themselves pitched in" and
helped buy that collar.
1t was deemed proper by the court
upon the evidence introduced to dis
miss the case, and upon the promise
of the defendant to hereafter be less
hasty. In the meantime Rags" is
