the ssore. She bore her sufferings with
q Christian fortitude that challenged
the admiration of all, and to the very
end she was patient and cheerful.
Though cut off in the bloom of young
womanhood, it is certain that she has
entered upon life of eternal happi-
ness, and our community's loss is

Arizona's New Seal.

The territory of Arizona has ac-
quired new great seal, says n Phenix
correspondent of the Los Angeles
Times. The old seal was adjudged
out of date, its design being about as
stiff as the decorations ON the tombs
of the pbaraohs. In accordance with
the legislative act establishing it. it
contained what purported to be rep
resentation of the San Francisco noun
tains, a pine tree Il cactus and deer
These features are included in the new
seal also, but they are far more life
like and more true to nature. The de
signer is Warren L. Rollins, an artist
who has spent much time in Arizona
painting the Grand canyon and in
studying Indian types.

GOLDEN RULE JUDGE.
Toledo Jurist Has Flags, Plants and
Notices In His Courtroom.

Ioledo Jurlst 1as Flags, Plants and
Notices In His Courtroom.
Judge Austin, who recently took
charge of the police court in Toledo.
o., has adopted the Golden Rule plan
for dispensing justice, says a Toledo
dispatch to the New York Sun.
His first move in preparing for his
new duties was to have notices placed
on the walls of the courtroom. Fur
ther touches of adornment were to be
added by the installation of a large
American flag and palms and other
plants.
Over the bench is the motto "Do
unto others as you would have others
do unto you" Other notices on the
walls are "A wrong confessed is half
redressed," "Men may rise on stepping
stones Of their dead selves to higher
things" Honor and shame from no
condition rise; act well your part
there all the honor lies"
These notices are intended to have
a guiding influence upon prisoners, at
torneys, court attaches and juries.
Judge Austin will bar all minors and
1oafers from the courtroom. He has
been dubbed the Golden Rule Judge

An English officials Narrow Escape
In France In 1870.
The thrilling adventure which befell
Captain Haworth. one of Queen Vic
rOria's messengers, vlvidly illustrates
the perils of the diplomatic service
when member of that corps is
raversing n country where the storm
and stress of war IS raging.
1t was during the Franco-German
war, and Captain Haworth was on his
way home charged with dispatches
from the English ambassador, then at
Tours. He got as far rs the town Of
lie Mans. when something suggested
to the excited townsfolk the idea that
he was n prussian spy.
He was arrested. carried before the
juge de paix and required to give an
account of himself. He explained that
he was in the service of the British
government and produced his creden-
tials. He was then asked to show the
contents of the little bag which, as he
affirmed. contained his official dis
patches. This he absolutely refused
ernment label and seal.
His refusal was thought suspicious
and he was plainly told that unless he
could produce some more satisfactory
evidence he must be prepared to die,
The unlucly messenger was actually
led away for execution and was saved
only by some little glimmering of com
mon sense in the captain of the guard
he was committed to.
This officer demonstrated with his
prisoner on the folly of refusing TO
satisfy the court by submitting his pa.
pers to their inspection. Captain Ha-
worth told him that their bullets should
go through that bag and his breast at
the same time and that then they
would have to reckon with the British
government. The officer seemed to be
impressed and sent him back to the
authorities. After further parley the
Englishman was ordered to clear out
of the town with all speed, an order
which he did his best to comply with.

How the Great Heron Stabs Fish With

How the Great Heron Stabs Fish With
Its Lancelike Bill.
While the kingfsher feeds by day,
the great heron begins his fishing at
dusk just as the stars peep forth.
When l am about to make the last few
casts and stop fishing In trout pool
l hear the loud whiz of his vast stretch
of wings passing close by, flying low
to favorite shallow part of the river,
and down drop his long legs, and he
settles right down to business motion.
less as Il stone. Sometimes for half an
hour not feather moves.
He watches with unwearied patience
When he does strike 1t is as quick and
as sure as fate, for the first luckless
fish that approaches within his reach
is seized with surprising deXterity.
Like the kingfisher. the heron beats to
death those fish of larger size, swallow
ing them whole, headforemost, such
being their uniform positions when
found in the stomach. He will then
at once assume the same attitude of
silent watchfulness, and the finny tribe,
though frightened at his first dash
among them, return again in a short
interval only to be transfiXed with his
long lance shaped bill.
Hornaday's Natural History" says:
when heron is fishing it stalks slow.
ly and silently along the shore, prefer.
ably in water about six inches deep,
its head carried well forward, but
about on a level with its shoulders,
while its big eyes kecnly scrutiniZe ev.
cry object in the water. 1t takes long
steps and plants each foot softly in the
true still hunter fashion to avoid
alarming its game. When fish is
found within range the kinks of the
neck fly straight and the fish is seized
between the mandibles. The fish is
not stabbed through and through"
This latter statement is only correct
when small fish are taken. l have II
on expert authority that herons re.
pcatedly stab large trout up to two
pounds in weight, making a hole in

j Dickinson Press: J. Olson, one of

ton of the Missouri Valley Milling

ed by. a dynamite explosion shortly
after the noon hour Monday. The
condemned concrete foundations are

ing had just laid the fuse when Olson
came along to go to his work ,is an

ers, who were running away from
the explosion, shouted to him and
warned him of the danger but he did
not seem to comprehend what they
were saying and continued to walk
toward the spot where the dynamite
would go off. -o s~. .,-,a ~
Before they could make him u:.der-
stand the danger he was running into,
the explosion went off and he was
struck in the shoulder by piece of
the concrete. He was removed to
the office building and a doctor sum
moned and later was taken to the
Stein hospital for treatment. His es
cape from serious, if not fatal injury
was miraculous but it was found that
he was merely bruised and no bones

that he will be discharged from the

LIQUOR AT. ELECTION I: [ ] {. ! |.
AN EVIL WHICH DECENT PEO-
PIE AND SELF RESPECTING
81 CANDIDATES SHOULD CON.
DENIM. s&s#r ~ w. ~ ~ -.

The Valley City Times-Record calls
attention to one of the worst feat
ures of Amtrican elections-one that
has in times past debased elections
in this city, but which, happily, was
less in evidence at the late election
than ever beforein the following
words: "
There is one election curse which
all right minded people should place
most emphatic public disapprovaI up
on, and that is the use of intoxicat-
ing liquors in political campaigns.
Every close election in a town of
any size. even here in North Dako-
ia, is decided by a few fellows who
can be bought and the beer parties
which they hold. A small percentage
of every community, while it is large
" non-tax paying is irresponsible,
can be bought with a few cases of
beer, a few gallons of whisky and a
drunken spree. During the recent
campaign in Valley City and Barnes
county, as in every other town and
community in the state, a well organ
lied group Of politicians endeavored
to carry the election by the free use
of liquor. Great quantities of beer
was shipped in as well as much whis-
ky Big beer parties we're held and
scores of citizens we're drunken and
irrespo nsible. It is a blot on the
good name Of the community.
1t is a mistaken notion that these
beer parties are necessary or that
candidate must buy intoxicants to
carry an election. This portion Of
the community can be ignored by any
politician who has the courage to
openly set his face against that sort
OF thing and stand squarely for a
clean campaign and a decent election,
In fact, 1t is time that the better
portion Of every community, put abe
mark Of disapproyal on such cam
paign methods by demanding that ey
cry candidate who expects their sup.
, port must pledge himself to conduct
a clean campaign. s2ss
