company about year ago.
Mrs. L. w. Richards was the
first to file on a homestead in the
Valley. She was located by A. L.
Martin on the claim where she now
resides which joins the Beach
townsite on the north. She came
in 1901 and the following year saw
a large number of homesteads
taken. and each year the number
increased until today the govern
ment land is all occupied and a
great deal of the railroad land is
under cultivation.
The Missouri Slope paid in the
neighborhood Of $1.00 an acre for
the land and retailed it at about
$3.50. Today the same land sells
from SIS to $35 per acre, and is
still going up.
It can be truly said that the
Golden Valley is the garden spot
of North Dakota.

RABELAls CLUB WAS POPULAR.
or English Dining Organizations
Americans Liked This the Best.

Probably of all the English dining
clubs that most hospitable to Ameri-
cans was the Rabelias, which was
founded more than IA quarter of a CEN
fury ago, which nourished for per-
haps ten years and which has been
defunct for now nearly Is years, says
Brander Matthews in Putnam's. IL
had among its organizers the late
Lord Houghton, that stanch friend OF
the union through all the uncertain
years of the civil war, and Sir Walter
Besant, always untiring in his efforts
to assure the solidarity of the English
speaking peoples Among the origi-
nal members when the Rabelais gave
its dinner in 1879 were Charles God
frey Leland, Bret Harte and Henry
James, all then residents in England.
Longfellow. Lowell and Holmes were
elected to the club in 1880. Afterward
other Americans were added to the
ROLE. a. Abbey, Lawrence Barrett.
John Hay, w d. Howells, Clarence
King and the present writer. OF alb
these. the one who took the most ac-
tive part in the earliest days of the
clubs existence was Leland, the au-
thor of Hans Breitmann."
This dinner of the Rabelais club to
DIR. Holmes in 1856, arranged long be-
fore he left his beloved Boston, whose.
bard he was and whose titles to glory
he was ever glad to proclaim-this
dinner was the largest ever given by
the club and it was perhaps its last
effort to establish itself solidly. Other
dinners there were from time to time
within the next two or three years;
and then there were no more, and
the Radicals club ceased to be. II had
run its course, and 1t came to an un.
timely end at last, for some reason
not easy to ascertain.

to remain in the room. Justice Blanch-
said

Today's examination of talesmen
showed that the defense apparently
has preference for married men and
men without pronounced religious af
fliations. Each talesman was asked
whether he was prejudiced against
members Of the theatrical profession
and whether he had any special feel
ings about crimes of the nature
charged.
one of the counsel for the defense
was quoted this evening as saying
that the district attorneys office hal
engaged private detectives to watch
the jurors, attorneys and witnesses for
the defense.
Helen Van Hagen, the 14-year-old
girl, who is the youngest of the com
plainants, is expected to take the
stand tomorrow morning as the first
witness against the actor. Several

William F. Perry in the Penitentiary
for Forgery.

William F. Perry, formerly of
Raleigh, was tried for forgery in
Edgecombe county some days ago
and was sentenced to the penitentiary
for one year. While the officers were
en- route to Raleigh with Perry he
made his escape from the train near
Auburn, but was recaptured at Gar
ner Sunday night and brought to
Raleigh Monday and placed in the
penitentiary to serve his sentence.
Perry is we'll known in Raleigh,
where he was employed for some
time by a sewing machine company
and he was also a rural mail carrier
for several months until he got into
some trouble. 1t is reported that
Perry received money from patrons
of his route to send off money orders,
but that he pocketed the money
until trouble began to brew, when
the amounts were made good. But
the postal authorities we're not salts
fed about the matters and Perry
quit the service and left the city be-
fore he was caught. Perry married
in this city.
