WORTH SEEING.
The Hagenbeek-Wallaoe Display Of
Horses, Animals And Cages
is Beautiful.

The movement which was attempt
ed d few years ago to eliminate the
parade feature Of circus day has
signally failed. and the Hagenbeck-
Wallace Combined Shows were instru-
mental in retaining that part of the
circus which is enjoyed by thousands
who are not able to attend the per-
formances. When this enterprise
visits this city September %, the pop
ulace will turn out en- masse, for they
have the reputation of making a
street parade we'll worth taking time
to see.
While only small percentage Of
the people can own automobiles and
appreciate them. every man, woman
and child admires beautiful horse
For years the name of Wallace has
been synonymous for fine horses, p
because he himself has always per-
sonally taken pride in horse flesh.
When he first embarked in the show
business he adopted as slogan "The
finest horses Of any show on earth, {"
and that he has lived up to it is at
tested by the millions of people who
have seen the Wallace parade
The Carl Hagenbeck Trained Ami
NAL Shows have always been credited
with having the best trained wild
beasts ever exhibited, and since these
two shows have combined the display
of the wild animals in the open cages
adds an unusual feature to parade
that has already gained a national
reputation because of its brilliancy
and novelty.
According to the daily schedule it
is the plan to have the parade on the
streets at 10 o'clock, and this is gen
orally done, The very nature of the
circus business, however, subjects
them to unexpected delays at times
and they can not always guarantee to
be right on the dot But rather than
miss the grandest street parade, the
most pleasing one ever witnessed, the
public is urged to be in good positions
to view it at the usual hour Of 10
o'clock.

CONFIDENCE men
RESOURCEFUL
MooRHEAD MAN WOULD NOT
DRINK so THEY USED A SAND.
WIcH AS DOPE MEpIUM-sEc-
TON MEN AT LEAL FIND THE
STOLEN PockETsooK.

This is the story or stozsn pocket
book, but names nave been suppress
ed and the story is told to show that
it does not pay to make condolences
with strangers when travelling and
that there are more ways than one In
the administration Of knock out
drops"
A Moorhead man was travelling
from Leal, N. d. He got into CONVEX
sation with three strangers on the
train and during the course of friendly
talks and exchanges of courtesies the
strangers became aware that the
Moorhead man had a fat pocketboolx.
considerable In currency and over
$4,000 In drafts and bank certificates
OF deposit.
Something was done to make the
Moorhead man suspicious and he per-
sisted in refusing anything to drink
from the hands of his friends" The
latter are always resourceful and one
Of them innocently hied himself into
the buffet car and purchased four
sandwiches. Returning to the party
with the refreshments they were hand
ed out, one of them being accepted by
Mr.. Moorhead. He never suspected a
sandwich and he ate the bite-and
went to sleep. When he awakened 'the
friends" had disappeared and so had
his pocketbook. He says he was not
sleepy until he had eaten the sandwich.
On return Of the loser of the book
to Moorhead he took his local banker
into his confidence. few days ago
the president of a national bank writ
ing to the Moorhead banker told him
OF the finding OF a pocketbook contain
ing valuable papers by railway sec
ton hands and that the contents of
the book exposed the fact that 1t was
the property OF a Moorhead man. Proof
of property was made and the lost
pocketbook, simply minus the cur
rency,, was returned to the loser by
the president of one of the Moorhead
National banks and considerable en-
barrassment was removed. Tonight
three boxes of choice Havanas will
leave Moorhead addressed to three sec
ton hands near Leal, N D., as recog-
milton Of their honesty and good judg-
ment in placing the book in hands
which would likely lead to the owner
OF the lost property.

JAPANESE POLICY
IS one OF PEACE
KATSURA CABINET MAKES CLEAR
THAT IT is OPPOSED TO
"sWAsH 5ucKING."

Toxic, Dec. 22.--'It is not Japan's de-
sire or Japan's intention TO encroach
upon the rights of others or to win
way in the world by 'swash buckling''
This is the position of the mikados
government, as made clear in semi
official statements which have just
been issued to the resident diplomats
here
Japan, the ministry declares, has
gone through a period of bitter expert
ence and her statesmen have pronted
by that experience. The clearing Of
the atmosphere will, it is believed. make
Japan's situation among the nations
an easier enc, and will tend to relieve
the suspicious which the people of the
United States and other powers have
sometimes entertained as to Japan's
international intentions.
Immediately following the war;"
says the spokesman for the Japanese
government, in making clear the pres
ent position and policy of his nation,
there was widespread leaven OF
bombast, and the mass of people were
inclined to wave the sword and shout
Of great deeds done and greater deeds
to follow. There was no desire on the
part of the ruling forces toencourage
this, but the sentiment oftheoutside
world was aroused against Japan be-
cause of this Chauvinistic element.
'Tt may be said that it took two
years at least for the government
forces in Japan to realize fully the
danger of this spirit, which pervaded
the empire
