GRAND FORKS COUNTY SENDS
ANOTHER DELEGATION OF
SERVANTS FOR THE
q As STATE S

Grand Forks, July 1.Sheriff Han
sson left Saturday evening for the
Bismarck penitentiary with four
prisoners, Paul Gladstone, who is
to serve year and three months,
Anthony Cole and Wallace McRae in
for a year, and Harry Smith a two
year man. To avoid demonstra-
ton at the Great Northern depot in
this city, Sheriff Hanson took Glad.
.stone and Cole in cab to the uni.
versity station of the Great Northern
two miles out, and they boarded the
8 % clock train at that point. The
sheriff did this because on the ar
rival of Gladstone from Superior a
few weeks ago he was followed to the
Jail by some boys, who sang and
caused the prisoner a good deal OF
mental suffering by their talk
Gladstone had made no request in
regard to the matter, it was stated
last night. q. %
Judge Mclaughlin, John Laidley
and Fred Lincoln accompanied the
sheriff on his trip and assisted in
guarding the prisoners. Before he
started the judge took out an acct
dent insurance policy.
Gladstone has been cheerful the
past few days. Since receiving his
sentence he has felt relieved and
was anxious to begin serving his
term. He will do some literary
work in jail.

The Historians Hens.

July Lippincott's: An Indiana
man tells OF ethe efforts of an au-
thor belonging to the Hossier school
OF; historical novelists to put in his
leisure time as 'then farmer" in
that state. The literary person s
venture afforded his agricultural
neighbors no end of amusement.
During his first year the amateur
farmer discovered that all his little
chickens, which were confined in
.coops, were languishing at the point
of death. The novelist went over
his Then literature" to s locate the
cause of the trouble, but to no, avail.
Finally he called upon an old chap
named Rawlins, to whom he put
the question: --.
what do you suppose is the mat.
ter with those chiclens?"
'"Well, dunno" said Rawlins.
what do you feed 'em?" .gga=
.sFedd them!''' exclaimed the nov.
elist-farmer. ssWhy, I don't feed
them anything" .. ....a
Then, how'd you s'pose they was
a-goin' to live?'' -l ~
IT presumed" replied the literary
person, sethat the old hens had milk
enough for them now"

Why Japan Makes No Treaty With
~ the United States.

the United States.
A. Maurice Law in the July Fo-
rum: When the conventions with
France and Russia are signed Japan
will have reached an understanding
with all the great powers with the
exception of the United States and
Germany. Is the exclusion of these
two powers accidental or interna-
tional; in other words, does the
policy Of Japan make it impossible
or inadvisable for her to reach the
same agreement with the United
States and Geramny that she has
found it to her advantage to reach
with Great Britain, France and Rus
STA? It is well known that the feel
ing in high government circles in
Japan against Germany is bitter,
which is an answer in part to the
question, but that does not explain
the exclusion of the United States,
unless the reason is to be found in
certain recent events in the United
States. An understanding between
Japan and the United States would
invole an agreement on the part of
Japan to respect American posses
sion Of the Philippines and the
Hawaiian Islands, and it is quite evil
dent Japan is not willing to make
any such agreement at present. 1t
is as foolish for a writer to be
guilty of sensationalism as it is for
him to blink the truth. A clash with
Japan is possible, of cource, but not
probable; but relations between the
United States and Japan are not on
such a footing that she would re
gard it as wise not to retain the
fullest liberty of action. The Phil
ippines might conceivably prove a
menace to Japan or a weakness to
the United States; the Hawaiian
Islands are an arrow pointed at the
heart Of the United States, to para
phrase the expression used by Japan
in regard to Korea. Hence the prob
able explanation of the Discrimination
| of Japan to round out her treaty
1 making by convention with the
United States.

REPELLED BY The GUARDS
Sixty Robbers Derail and Attempt to
=: Rob Train.

TiAis, Transcaucasia, Dec. 14.-A
band of sixty robbers attacked and
derailed the mail train running be-
tween Tiflis and Baku near the sta
ton Of Salakhlu. The train was car
rying a large sum of money. The
trs in gua1d repnlsed the bandits after
a fight in which many passengers and
soldiers were wounded. The bandits
finally retreated, leaving four dead
behind them.
The attack was daringly conceived
and carried out. Thirty yards of
track on a down grade had been torn
up and the train, running at full
speed, plunged it's way over the ties.
Both locomotives and most of the
cars were ditched. The robbers, who
were in hiding nearby, Immediately
came out and advanced on the train
guard and passengers. They threw
eight bombs and opened a heavy fire
on the confused travellers. The train
guard rallied and returned the fire
from behind the mass of Wreckage
They held their ground tenaciously
until the robbers were driven of, car
rying their wounded.
A hospital train has brought a num-
Der OF wounded passengers and guards
into Tiflis. Troops are in pursuit Of
the robbers. 49,.

SHIPWORM DRIVEN OFF
BY RIVER POLLUTION

Because of the fact that sewage is
emptied into the Hudson river in
quantities sufficient to poison the
water for animal matter, the teredo,
or ship worm is now so scarce in that
river that the life of piles driven into
the river bed in pier construction is
reckoned to be twenty years longer
than was the case a few years ago.
Alexander Potter, consulting engi-
neer, is authority for the above state
ment and he declares that the result
is that the cost of pier maintenance
along the river front is materially
lessened. AS a matter of fact, pier
maintenance is an important item
with the large railroads and trans
~portation companies and it is of ma
terial interest to such companies to
learn of the destruction of the teredo,
IA description of which, given by Mr..
Potter, impresses one of the hither-
to unheralded terrors of unpolluted
water. An ordinary encyclopaedia
is content to state that a teredo is a
ship worm or mollusk which causes
terrible ravages on wood, but Mr,
Potter claims to be better informed
on the subject and the waters of the
rivers hereabouts are well rid of the
terrible creatures he describes.
: After explaining that the female
teredo has the habit of laying a mil
lion eggs during a short but ~eventful
life, Mr.. Potter says it begins life as
a swimmer and later it develops eyes
and a single foot, which is a soft
