What is commonly meant by reading
the riot act" is better known than the
origin OF the phrase. The historical
riot act was passed by the British Par
Lament in the reign of George l. in

ted when twelve or more persons I'M
lawfully, riotously and unanimously
assemble together to the disturbance
Of the public peace, so to continue to-
gether for an hour after being COM
handed to dispense by the sheriff or
undersherin or a justice or the mayor
Of the borough.
In the reading" of the British riot
act. which is a necessary preliminary
70 it's being put into operation, it is not
customary to recite the whole of the
statute which is rather long one, but
only the following proclamation, which
Ii contains: "Our sovereign lord the

SAVING THEIR LEADER.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

In 1918 went out the first British ex-
petition prepared to winter as near the
north pole as possible. The vessels
were the Dorothea and Trent, the first
under the command of David Buchan,
the other under that of John Franklin.
Neither officer writes w. G. Gordon
In Round About the North Pole had
been in the arctic region before; but
Buchan had done excellent service in
surveying Newfoundland, and Franklin
had been marked for special duty owing
to his work in Australian seas.
They were instructed to proceed to
the north pole, thence to continue on
to Behring strait direct, or by the best
route they could find, to make their
way to the Sandwich islands or New
Albion, and thence to come back
through Behring strait eastward, keep
ing in sight and approaching the coast
of America whenever the ice would
permit them to do so.
A nice little program. But they
started too early in a bad season. They
made accurate surveys and other OBJ
servations in exploration they did lit
tie but they had many adventures.
of Cloven Cliff there was a walrus
dght, begun by the seamen and ccntin-
lIed by the walruses when they found
themselves more at home in the water
than on the ice. They rose in numbers
about the boats, rushing at them, snort
ing with rage, endeavoring to upset
them or stave them I'm by hooking their
tusks on the gunwales, or butting at
them with their heads.
ut was the opinion of our people"
saws Beechey, chat in this assault the
walruses were led on by one animal in
particular, a much larger and more
! formidable beast than any of the 9th
ers; and they directed their efforts
more particularly toward him, but he
withstood all the blows of their toma-
hawks without flinching, and his tough
hide resisted the entry of the whale
lances. which were, unfortunately, not
very sharp, and soon bent double.
1.-THE herd was so numerous and their
attacks so incessant that there was not
time to load a musket, which, indeed,
was the only effectual mode of serious
ly inJuring them.
'sThe purser, fortunately, had his
gun loaded. and the whole now being
nearly exhausted with chopping and
sticking at their assailants, he snatched
1t up, and, thrusting the muzzle down
the throat of the leader, fired into him.
"The wound proved mortal, and the
animal fell back amongst his compan-
ions, who Immediately desisted from
their attack, assembled round him, and
in a moment quilted the boat, swim
ming away as hard as they could with
their leader, whom they actually bore
up with their tusks, and assiduously
| preserved from sinking"

Artificial Tech.

1t is certain that the ancients had a
knowledge Of dentistry; but it is diff
cult to determine when or by whom the
use of artificial teeth was introduced.
Herodotus says that the Egyptians had
dentists for the teeth" In the British
Museum there are various dental in
struments which had been found in the
ruins of Pompeii, and Galen, In the
second century, describes the method Of
extracting teeth by means OF forceps.
Belzoni says that artificial teeth were
in use in antiquity, since he found
some specimens In the Catacombs.
Modern dentistry admits that the
first TO teach how to make artificial
teeth was the Arabian, Albucasis, and
in his work, al Tariff" are drawings
of instruments used for this purpose.
The earliest known allusion to arti-
fetal teeth is by Martialis, in the first
century:
"You use without blush false teeth
and hair;
But, Laelia, your squint is past repair"
Ben Jonson mentions false teeth IN

Some Carnival Attractions.

The committee on sports appointed
by the Firemen have been fortunate
in securing some very good attrac
tions for the Street Carnival.
IL a. m. Friday, June 18th, the
Colored Gophers of St. Paul will
play the River lls-Ellsworth
league team, and you can make ur
your mind right now that those
colo'd boys will have to play ball
all the time. The Colored Gophers
have made the best record of any
ball team that ever played ball in
the northwest, barring none. 1t
will be worth coming miles just to
see their great catcher, Rat" John
son, perform with his big mitt.
Here is just little suggestion to
those who will attend the big game:
If its tworth seeing it certainly is
worth paying for. The regular
price of Is cents each will be
charged. Now you know it would
seem awful small of you to have
the Fire Department pay for your
amusement, so be right show the
Gophers I'VE are no cheap skates, 5"
and hand over the price of admis-
sion.
The night of the 18th dance will
be put on at Opera Hall that has
never been excelled as far as good
music goes.
At 9 O'Clock pm, Friday the 18th,
there will be wrestling match be-
tween Jim McAuley, (the crack
wrestler who beat our friend Nels
Sonju) and Whitmore, the champion
wrestler of the Fire Departments of
the Twin Cities, best two out of
three. 1t will be a battle royal.
The winner takes the whole purse.
AS the managers of these wrestlers
are both anxious to make showing
the going will be fast and furious.
AS curtain raiser Howard Griffin
will box young Baker Nelson 6
rounds. These lads are both very
clever with the mitts.
Pitcher Pratt will wrestle young
O'Brien for the best two out of
three. Neither of these young men
need recommendation as to their
ability as middle-weight wrestlers.
One sure thing-the one who wins
will have to go some, as they have
long talked of coming together on
the mat. Both have hosts of ad-
mirerS.

innings, and in the 9TH and 9th he
let them down in one, two, three
order. In each OF the other innings
they sent four men to bat, but could
not score. Four hits was all that
Pratt would let them make, and they
were valuelesS. 1t was a good
game, but it was all high school,
and when it was over the score was
5 to O, and the Normal had 0. They
simply couldn't help themselves.
They were up against a tough propo"
Sition, and were outclassed. The
result leaves no doubt as to the
championship. The next game is
billed for Friday, when the highs
meet the crack Mechanic Arts High
team of St. Paul on High camp is.
Game called at $3.50. 1t will test the
locals. See it. Then see the game
on the same campus Saturday at
1880 p. m. between the locals and
Minneapolis Central. That too will
be royal game. Symes will prob
ably pitch the Friday game and
Pratt the Saturday game.

school campus

And still they win. 1t seems to
be their year. One win week is
about all that most high school
teams can accomplish, but the local
has made it three in the last five
days. Not bad, Ell? With their
appetite wheted by their victory
over ST. Thomas, and maddened by
the scare that Galahad gave them in
the first four innings Tuesday, they
went over to Normal campus last
evening for gore. 1t was a perfect
day for a game, and record crowd
was on hand. Normal was con-
fdent. So were their rooters. High
was no less so. Merrihew tried to
do the pitching for the Normal, but
quit at the end of the third inning
when the score was to 0 against
him. O'Brien succeeded him, and
high proceeded to score one more
in the fourth and then added one IN
the ninth for good measure. Mean
while, Pratt, pitching for the highs,
was at all times master of the situa-
ton. In each of the first three
