INTERESTING HABEAs CORPUS
CASE

The application for writ of habeas
corpus applied for in the supreme
court, growing out of the Mandan case
against an alleged blind pigger pre-
sents novel and unusual question.
The grand jury failed to bring in an
Indictment against one charged with
violating the prohibition law Judge
Burke, the trial judge, dissatisfied with
this action in the face of evidence
presented to the grand jury, severely
reprimanded the jury, discharged the
body, ordered another jury drawn and
denied the motion for the dismissal
of the prisoner, pending action by this
new grand jury. Counsel for the de-
PENDANT contends that his client is en-
titled to discharge and his liberty. The
supreme court will, it is understood,
be callsd upon to pass on the question.
Under the provisions of the statute in
relation to the finding and presenta
ton of an indictment and the provi
sions of law in relation to plea of jeop
ardy there may exist a question fol
the suprsme court in Judge Burke's
action, but it is quite evident that The

The receipts of the q. S. land Of
fice at Bismarck last month were $685.
S47.s0, which was the largest monthly
amount this year with the exception
of April when tho receipts were but
$500 in excess of October. From this
time on the number of final proofs will
be very heavy and the contest work
will also increase. The opportunities
for obtaining free government land are
passing rapidly.

There was a large delegation from
Stark county and the new county of
Dunn at Governor BHrke's Office We'd
nesday and Thursday arguing this mat
ter of naming the county seat town for
Dunn county.
1t appears that Stark county is
greatly interested in the matter, from
the fact that a number of Dickinson
business men own a large tract of land
in the western part of the county,
where they are anxious to have the
seat Of government placed. On the
other hand the people at Taylor would
like to have the Dunn county seat
placed in the eastern part for the rea-
son that they believe that it will be.

At the close of Office hours at the

Led. The Dickinson delegation, how
lever, feel that they viii win out in
the matter. The matter has been left

ton and while the subject has en-
gendersd considerable rivalry, it is
safe to say that his final decision will
be eminently satisfactory to all parties
interested.

A Curious Widows Cap.

A very curious cap forms the "wid-
ow's weeds of the Australia aborigine
in one part of the great island CONT
nent. Near the northeast bend of the
Murray river it is the GSlstom for Wild
ows to attend upon the tombs of their
departed lords. Then, after shaving
their heads, they cover them with pipe
clay, kneaded into a paste. The head
is first covered with net to prevent
the clay from sticking too tightly to
the skin-a misfortune Which is partly
ayerted by the amount of grease with
which every Australian native is anont-
ed. A layer of this clay several inches
in thickness is plastered over the head
and when dry forms a sort of skull
cap exactly fitting the head on which
it was nodded AS it weighs several
pounds, the widows cap cannot be
comfortable.

The Reason Was Plain.

There was woman" said law
yer, whose husband was killed ia a
railroad accident. The railroad, to
avoid suit, gave her $1,000 damages.
The sum satisfied the woman, but a
month or two afterward, taking up a
newspaper, she read about man who
had lost his leg in the same accident,
and, behold, this man was given by
the company damages to the amount or
$780, 1t made the woman mad. She
fastened at once to the Office OF the
railways claim adjuster. She said
bitterly:
"'How is this? Here you give a
man $500 for the loss of his leg,
while you only gave me $1,000 for the
loss Of my husband
"The claim adjuster smiled amiabiy
and said in a soothing voice:
"'Madam, the reason is quite plain.
The $500 won't provide the poor
man with a new leg, whereas with
your $4,000 you can easily get a. new
husband and perhaps better one. =

Pretty Close.

A certain elderly lady was in fairly
good position and lived in one of the
suburbs of a large town. One morn
ing she went to her butcher with a
basket filed with wooden skewers. She
told him she he'd saved them-that they
had been weighed to her as meat and
that she had brought them to receive
their weight back again in meat! Is
there a man bold enough to carry econ
omy so far? -s~w -
Perhaps the WEAKNESSES of mean
people are more often actuated By
feelings of avarice than by those OF
economy. 1t would be difficult, for in
stance, to find q worse case than the
following: An old man once wrote Il
letter to friend, and wishing to save
his stamp, he ordered his servant to
take it to it's address. 1t was raining,
and the girl wore new dress that she
was afraid of spelling She looked into
the street, saw boy she knew, and.
calling out to him, she said, Deliver
this letter for me, and ! will give you
q penny" The miser heard the offer
and said, "Give me the penny, and /
will carry the letter myself" What is
more, he did SOLOMON Captain.

London Theaters Charm.

One of the delicious treats London
offers Americans is the acting and ac-
cessories of her theaters. The Or
chestra stalls or balcony stalls are very
sumptuous and very roomy and are
evidently created on purpose to ap-
peal to hearty diners. The usher is
very tidy young woman in black dress
and coquettish cap and apron, pos
sessed Of sweet face and still sweet
err voice. You pay her sixpence for
each programme The stage settings
are perfect in detail. Best of all is the
elocution Of the players. From the
rising of the curtain even unto the 60
ing down of the same, each and every
word uttered is as clear and tuneful as
the tinkle of a silver bell. You don't
have to wait till the middle of the first
act before you can even guess what
the plot is about Under these unusual
circumstances the interest one takes in
a play is greatly enhanced, and he
wonders why an American company is
not as we'll drilled.-Travel Magazine.

a Monster Rodent.

The Brazilian capybara is large,
stOutly built rodent. Imagine q rat
weighing $50 pounds With a huge head,
an upper lip foot long and close set
eyes and one has an idea of the beast.
He is the largest of the rodent tribe
and has harsh, coarse hair, more like
briStleS than fur. This hair is mixed
black and yellow, of dingy appearance
In his native haunts the capybara has
a huge, fat stomach which almost
drags on the ground. He is water
loving animal and can dive and stay
under for eight or ten minutes at a
time. The jaguar Of South America
preys upon the capybara, and the In
dams kill him for his flesh, which
when smoked is said to be as delicious
as a Kentucky ham, although it has a
certain musky flavor. The capybara
makes a sound when alarmed some
what between dogs bark and a pigs
grunt. He was once called the hydro
choerus, or water hog, and lives on a
vegetable diet.

vane is, Of course, longer on one side

would not turn with the wind, but it's
weight is the same on both sides. II

Dear Miss Blank-We agree to the COM

fact that we do not care to open a con-
test with woman lawyer.
To which this reply was sent:
Gentlemen-I note yours agreeing to a
settlement, although / cannot congratu-
late you on your gallantry in begging the
question. Like the original Adam, you

Of the noise Of London streets caused

hideous rumbling in the streets by
many churches doors that peoples
ears are stopped with the noise, where
by they are debarred of their edifying
which makes faith so fruitless, good
works so barren and charity as cold
