The increase of stomach troubles in

A story is told in Harper's Weekly
Of farmer who went into the store
Of one of his neighbors and asked him

The man received the knitting nee

SENATOR M'CUMBER
GOOD TO ORPHANS
HE SAVES A QUARTER SECTION
OF LAND FOR MINOR HEIRS.

Dickinson, N. D., April "A very
interesting final proof recently came
up at the Dickinson United States
land Office. 1t appears that certain
Carl Fairman made entry in 1899 for
the southeast quarter of section "a,
township 141, range SO west. This
entry was Cancelled by commissioner S
letter dated May 10, 1907, for failure
to make proof within the statutory
period. Fairman, who died without
leaving will, is survived by a wife
and four minor children. Mrs. Fair
man was taken to the hospital for the
insane at jamestown three years prior
to her husbands death. She is still
hopelessly insane. The care of the
children has been left to Father Rab.

dren were sent to the Catholic orphan
asylum, where they are being cared
for at the present time. The guar
dian took steps to prove up on the
16O acres belonging to the estate.
Here he met obstacles. The testimo.
ny at the first final proof, offered in
the fall of 1907, showed that the en-
tryman resided for some time, by mis-
take, a short distance from his own
homestead. He changed his residence
and resided on his land until his
death. After proof second it was dis
covered that the land in question had
been open for entry since May. 1907,
but in the rush in the land Office did
not become matter of record until
late in the year. Father Rabsteinek
succeeded in getting a second hear
ing of the proof. This piece of land
is valued at $4,000, and is the only
heritage of the poor orphans. The
second proof was successful and the
administrator is very thankful for the
good services gratuitously rendered
by Messrs. Mcbride and Baker and
Senator McCumber, who labored on
| the merits of the case, and to Regis.

| their careful attention to the various
details of the case. The children will
receive their land, thanks to Senator

To the Editor of the Sun:
Sir-I have read with interest the
letter of our esteemed w. D. Howells,
dated Rome, aMrch 10, in today's Sun
but disagree with him. The pride OF
no loyal American in Americas ma
tive scenery should be brought down
to the level of the south shore OF
Long Island on returning from the
Mediterranean, as Mr.. Howells puts
it, If the loyal American has first Wis.
tied the Pacific coast of his own
America.
There he can see "silent pinnacles
of aged snow" and a beauty that
equals anything in the world if he will
return via the Pacific and see first
Cape Flattery and the snow capped
Olympics guarding the entrance tc
the straits and that great interior
waterway, Puget sound, and then il
he comes to Alaska we will show him
a marvellous coast line with snow
capped mountains and pine clad hills
with living glaciers feeding the sea
and altogether far surprising any
thing Europe has to offer.
See America first. ~

BELKNAP A SUICIDE
LATEST THEORY REGARDING THE
DEATH OF HETTlNGER COUNTY
MAN.


New England, N. D., April Mrs.
George Belknap accompanied the body
OF her husband back to his old home
in Iowa last week. Mr.. Belknap died
March II, as was believed, from, the
effects of blow from a poker, re-
received while engaged in family
row at the home of George Laid.
Belknap was able to drive home, and
it seemed improbable that he would
die from his injuries. A four ounce
bottle, with three-fourths of the lau-
danum gone, which was found later in
his bed, leads to the conclusion that
Belknap was suicide.

The Man and His Job
By Herbert J. lHapgood

The idea that salesman is little more than an
itnerant joke book is fast becoming obsolete The old
school drummer regarded his stock stories equally as
valuable his samples and he figured the one was
of little without the other.
Buyers, however, are not placing orders with the
man who tells the funniest What they are
good goods and low prices and good joke will never
take the place of poor line of samples
A salesman who expects to do vaudeville stunt for
the benefit of the buyer and his assistants had better quit
the business and go on the stage. When man wants
good laugh he goes to the theatre and buys It, When
he wants to buy his spring line of goods however he
has too much on his mind to laugh string of Jokes
most of which were rescued from the flood by none
other than Noah
The drummer, who banks selling goods on the
strength of funny stories is little better than the coored
supplement of Sunday newspaper and his clothes US
uay bear out the coored effect to great degree OF
excelency His fashy tie and big-checkered suit not
to mention his many hued hose rainbow hat band
render total effect equal to hasty glance at the week
ly funny sheet And then the okes-the talkatveness
and that tnsincere perpetual smile. All this however
is not craftsmanship and the buyer with modern ideas
will have of it.
Joke book drummers obsolete They have had
their day and at last are more.

DEMOCRATS HELP

While Edward w. Townsend, Demo-
cratic nominee for Congress of the
Seventh district. and his running mate
for State Senator, Harry V. Osborne,
were speeding by the New Auditorium
In Orange street last night they en-
countered William Fellowes Morgan,
the Republican candidate for sheriff.
The latter had concluded his address
at the Republican meeting at the Audi
torium and was waiting for a trolley
car when he was extended an invita-
ton to ride to his next meeting place
by the Democratic candidates, and he
accepted.
Later when asked what was the
topic of their conversation Mr.. Osborne
smiling. said: I'VE talked about the
defeat of the Giants by Chicago"
Mr.. Townsend aroused his auditors
at the meetings he addressed last night
by stating hat there was no congress
sional representative of the Seventh
district al present. He reiterated what
he has said all along. that Mr.. Parker
has delivered his political proxy to
Speaker Cannon. Both candidates were
loudly cheered as they entered the
rooms of the Eleventh Ward Demo
cratic Club.

JERSEY MAN BACK
FROM ARCTIC WITH
STORY OF TRAGEDY
Randolph FRANKIE, of Hoboken,
Tells of DR.. Cooks Fatal
Dash to Pole.
Special to the Evening star.l

ST. JOHNS, N. F., oct ~10.-Randolph
Francke, of Hoboken, n. J., arrived
here yesterday on the Peary auxiliary
steamer Erick with the information
that DR.. f. A. Cook. of New York, the
Arctic explorer who started north
eighteen months age is probably lost.
Francke and Cook were companions on
a Notwithstanding trip in Greenland.
AT the head a Melville bay the doctor
left the party to make a dash for the
pole. This was in March, 1908. Moth
ing has been heard of him since.
Francke's story evoked much con-
Germ with regard to the fate of DR..
Cook. Usually the dash over the polar
sea occupies two or three months, and,
starting in the middle of March from
Cape Hubbard, he should not make
very decided progress to get back early
in June
There is, of course, the possibility
hat DR.. Cook and his two Eskimo
helpers may have persisted on the
Arctic wastes or in some desolate sec
ton of the North.
>ast probably a relief expedition will
be Mt North next yea in quest of
DIR. ok, as he has not reached the
sout(rn part of Greenland in time to
