When the Hon. Beverly Tucker. min.

presented to Queen Victoria she indi.
Gated that he be seated by that slight
motion Of her plump hand which all
England obeyed. Tucker was portly
and heavy, and the only available chair
was fragile and small. He appeared
not to notice the invitation. A moment
later it was repeated, for even at that
first interview began the queens Xix
ing for Minister Tucker, which ripened
into such an intimate friendship as NO
other American ever enjoyed with her
majesty. Still the weakness Of things
terrestrial was more potent than the
finger Of Victoria, and Tucker again
ignored the command. Then the queen
put 1t in words. when Tucker. with q
profound bow. replied:
"Your majesty, / never sit In the
presence OF royalty"
II accept the compliment at your
hands, replied the queen, land now
you must accept comfort at mine.'
Comfort: exclaimed Mr.. Tucker.

Exhibits From North Dakota Are Of

The North Dakota state fair opened
at Grand Forks with 10000 people in
attendance, and under very favorable
circumstances. The gates were
opened at 8 a. M, and at 10 the formal
opening of the fair took place. At 2
o'clock in the afternoon there was an
address by Governor John Burke.
There are numerous special features,
and the exhibits are the most extern

The first day was Grand Forks day
and the business places were closed

A light shower fell during the af-
ternoon and settled the dust. The

dent, G. e. Batcheller, Fingal; vice

er, G.. H. HOLSTER, Fargo. The com
mittee on resolutions urged upon the
United States government the neces
sity Of taking steps to bring about
safe and conservative valuation of the
assets Of all corporations Offering
stocks and bonds for sale. It was
recommended that the national bank
ing laws be changed sc as to permit
first mortgage loans on real estate Sc
curity. A national currency based or
assets was opposed, and an elastic
but safe currency favored. 1t was
recommended that the committee or
grain grading insist that railway com
panies furnish cars with a minimum
capacity Of $4,000 pounds, or that they
allow cars to be shipped with this
amount. 1t was insisted that express
companies give up the issuance Of
money elders or submit to the same
regulations as the banking institu
tions.
The committee on taxation urged
that the association make an effort te
secure a more uniform assessment fol
the banks of the state. The reports
were adopted.

Cannot Receive More Than the Stat
utory Allowance.
Judge Goss of Minot has rendered a
decision in the case of Nehemiah
Davis VS.. ]. w. Fabrick, as county
auditor.
Some time ago Judge Davis man
damused the county for $4,000, which
he claimed was due as back salary.
1t was the contention of the plaintiff
that under the present law the county
judges salary in Ward county should
be $4,000 per year. This figure was
derived through the combined salaries
Of $1,000 under the increased jurisdic-
ton and $1,000 under the probate Sec
ton, which salary is based upon the
present valuation of the county.
The contention of the county was
that the salary Of the county Judge
within the state of North Dakota could
not exceed the sum of $4,000 per year
under the state statute.
Judge Goss took the matter under
Amusement ana handed down a de-
cision d%issolving the mandamus, hold
ing that the salary of the county Judge
could not be greater than $4,000 per
year.,

A NEW POINT OF LAW.
Can Remote Heirs Recover Damages
From Railroad Company?

From Railroad Company?
An interesting and heretofore un-
tried point of law has been brought
out in the case Of Arvid Satterberg,
administrator, VS.. the 500 railroad,
which was heard by Judge Goss in
chambers at Minot.
The case arises from the death Of
John Satterberg in the Enderlin
wreck last December and was heard
upon a demurrer %interposed by the
500 to the complaint of the admins
traitor.
Heretofore it has been generally un-
derstood by the public and bar that
the heirs to a person killed in a rail-
road wreck were entitled to damages.
The point brought up by the 500 at
this time is that the term heirs means
the widow, husband or children and
not any relative further removed. In
the ease at point some of the heirs
are the sisters of the deceased who
were entirely dependent upon him.
Judge Goss will be called upon to
decide this important matter as the
statute being comparatively recent
has never been construed by the
courts in this state.

Several hail storms occurred in

was extensive damage to crops. The
path of the storm was about half a

Langdon line train was just passing
on its way to Grand Forks, and forty
eight windows in the coaches were
broken. Passengers describe the hail
stones as large chunks of ice, which
covered the ground in places until it
was white. There was some wind &C.
c%ompanying the hail. The storm
