The Fate of a Spy. ':
How a Russian Circle Handled

Copyright. 1909. by American Press Asso- ciation.l
 We don't realize here in America bow many undercurrents there are of foreign influences. For instance, we nave thousands of Russian political reiugees among us, and we have hun dreds of Russian government spies to watch them. We are as unconscious or the plot and counterplot constantly gong on between these two foreign classes as we are of the vast traffic in the subways underlying the city of l New York It is only when we go uown there that we see life and mo-
 uoh, such as are above, and 1t is only when one gets the confidence of a
 russian refugee that he is introduced o lhls constant war between them and the spies.

MANY RELICS FOUND
ALONG the Mp. GRADE

Mandan Pioneer-The graders in the
vicinity of old Fort Berthold and Fort
Clark are collecting a valuable bunch
of Indian relics. Up at Mandan Lake
the line cuts through an old Indian
graveyard and the graders are digging
out all kinds of skeletons. arrowheads.
beads and other appurtenances of the
aborigines. The grave of an Indian
chief was uncovered in which were
several specimens of arrowheads- that
are without equal, while in one grave
were several elk teeth that were polished
like ivory, one Of which was a perfect
blue. This is hard to account for, as
the Indian may have in some unknown
way colored it or the effect of the wet
earth might have changed it's color.
One skull was uncovered that was in
fine condition and indicated a man of
about forty-five years of age, in which
the teeth were in perfect condition and
were ivory white. Nearly all of the
skulls that were discovered have fine
teeth in them and it seems that the old
Indians new had any use for dentists.
The bodies, or rather the skeletons.
found are all in a sitting position and
in nearly all the graves are found beads
and in some crude weapons. In one
grave were found several buffalo heads
along with the Indian. What that sig
nifies is a matter of conjecture.

BORROWING TROUBLE

The Fl Paso Times seems to be borrowing trouble. It is apprehensive lest the warm dis cussion now on within the republican party on the tariff question will disrupt the organization and ultimately lead it to defeat.
 The honest, sincere discussion of the tariff question, both within and without the republican party, is a sign that should be heralded with pleasure by all thinking people. It means that in the end the problem will be rightfully solved.
 The tariff question, however, is not threaten ing the republican party, nor is it causing un- easiness among the rank and file of that organ ization. They will prefer to pay the freight, and compromise their convictions, before en- trusting the matter to democratic hands.
 Should period of depression chance along about election time and while high tariff schedule is being enforced, the demorcatic par ty, on some pretext or another, might ride to victory as it has in the past which deduction leads to the conclusion that it would be we'll for the unterrifed to get down on their bunker bones daily and pray for industrial storm clouds.

THE OCTOBER BRIDE

Why the June bride in song and story to the approximate exclusion of all other brides?
 Not that we have anything whatsoever to say that is not all in praise of her-bless her!-and warmly appreciative, of course; but why should she be idealized far beyond that saccharine standard vouchsafed her no less deserving sis ters9
 AS a month of beauty, promise, and gladness, October has far the better of it when compared with June. The plain, unvarnished truth is, June is a pretty lazy, hay, languid month and while it is upon us it is something of bore. Mar riages scheduled for June are largely products of February, March, and April speculation. Dis tance lends enchantment to the Junetime, as brutal as a recital of the facts may seem to those of ardently sentimental persuasion. Anticipat- ing June is an unalloyed, sweet delight; realizing it is a painful awakening. We doubt not that James Russell Lowell was sitting tight by a cheerful winter fire when he wrote

The Medici balls were three pills in allusion to their profession of medicine. The balls on the rich crest of the Medici were blue, and only during the last half century have they, in the pawn brokers signs, been gilded The position of the balls is popularly believed to indicate that there are two chances to one that what is taken there will not be redeemed

Progress of Dentistry.

v DVHFFVFTT'
 The dentists increase in number. Ninety years ago there were not one hundred in the United States. The census for 1910 will show more than 30,000. Harvard's fine new dental college in Huntingdon avenue is an indication of this growth. But not only numerically, but in skill has the profession made marvellous pro gress. The public has also been educated to a realization of its value. There are very few so indifferent to their physical welfare as not to avail themselves of the opportunities to safe guard it at the very portals. Perhaps nothing has contributed more to the lengthening out of the span of life now an established fact, than the better care of the teeth.

EGternal House Decoration.

EGterRdt House Decoration.
 The city council of Leipzig awards prizes for the attractiveness of dwellings because that adds to the beauty of the city as whole To competitors there are sent upon application free illustrated pamphlets upon the care of plants. The most frequent method of decorating houses is by placing artistically painted wooden boxes containing collections of variegated flowers upon the window sills. The windows are ire quently entirely framed in by climbing vines. Torches and balconies are better suited for floral decoration, as large pot plants and all sorts of vines can be used In the residential sections of Leipzig nearly every house has some floral decoration. Small, unostentatious houses thus frequently attract much attention.
