FEAR EVIL SPIRITS
MoHAMMEpANs suPERsTlTious
BEYOND BELIEF.
Every Move in Daily Life Preceded by
Pious CALCULATIONS Calculated to
Offset Work Of the
Bad Jim.

Mohammedans believe implicitly In
the participation of spirits tJinn),
both good and evil, in most OF the con-
Germs OF daily human life. explaining
that Jim become visible or Invisible
at will. either by rapid extension or
ratification, and consequent diminu-
tion of the particles of which they are
composed, and that good Jim are i'm
mediately recognized by their re-
splendent beauty, the bad ones being
correspondingly hideous and shocking.
Many cultivated Mohammedans even
in this twentieth century, says the
Queen, profess not only TO have seen
Jim but also to have held converse
with them, and to possess certain tai
ismans by which the services Of good
Jim may be secured as well as
formulas by which bad ones can be put
To confusion.
Constant endeavors are made-ex-
cept during the Feast OF Ramadan,
when all evil spirits are supposed TO
be kept in strict durance In the bow
els OF the earthly daily sprinkling
ones, with salt or iron filing, for which
bad Jim are considered to have es-
pecial aversion, to insure their ex-
ehIsion from the dwelling places OF the
SONS of the faithful"
The favorite abiding places OF Jim
are supposed to be empty houses.
crossroads, baths, any uncovered jugs
or basins or food receptacles and
yawning mouths. So good Moslems
not only lock their doors when obliged
TO leave their houses, but besprinkle
and cover UP In so far as they can
every article OF domestic use whose
emptiness would tempt rowing evil
spirit to enter into possession, besides
making use Of the special prayers Or
dered by the Koran to keep such visi-
tants at bay.
The words II seek refuge with God
from Satan the stoned" or I'm the
name of God the compassionate
the merciful," are constantly upon the
lips OF Moslems, for without previous
pious CALCULATIONS OF the kind to dissi-
pate evil presences they dare not I'M
dertake even the most ordinary bust
ness OF their day, neither enter nor
leave house, meet with or paS& from
friend, partake Of meal, commence
or complete any commercial matter or
journey, take a bath, nor csen kill any
animal for food, lest the bad Jim take
possession as life ceases and work
madness or destruction upon the sac
religious mortal who presumed to eat
or make other use of 1t.
Probably for the same reason is the
singing OF continuous antiphonal
funeral chant kept up by relatives and
watchers from the moment the breath
leaves human body till 1t is safely
hidden away under the sod; usually
as short a period as possible among
Mohammedans, "a hours or less being
the customary interval between death
and burial.

OBITUARY

Died at Wahpeton, Nicholas
Richard, engineer at the Indian
School on Monday at 2 o'clock
p. NJ, Nov. 8. He was born at
Luxenburg, Germany, July 4,
1854
He Came to Wahpeton in the
early eighties and later he went
to Pawnee. Oklahoma where
he held a government position
for 10 years. he returned July
1907 to Wahpeton with a desire
to visit and made application
to the Government from Paw
nee for the position as engineer
at the Wahpeton Indian School
which position he had to resign
two months ago OH account of
his health.
In the fall of 1908 he was
taken sick with pneumonia
and the effect of the sickness
never seemed to leave him.
About a week ago his disease
seemed to take a turn for the
worse until death relieved him
of his sufferings. He suffered
much, but bore it bravely to
the end.
He leaves besides a widow,
two sons Matthias Richard who
holds government position at
Lower Brule, So. OAK, at the
Indian School and John Rich
ard in Kansas.
The funeral was held from
the Bohemian Catholic Church
Wednesday morning.

interested in this locality, aud
to induce them to come here
to investigate with a view to
locate in business here if con.
ditions seem to warrant it.
Several men have expressed
themselves as willing to sub.
scribe $4,000 or more towards
securing suitable industrial
agent for several months IF
service.
If such a move were to de.
velope favorably, and bring
good results, it is possible that
it would lead to securing a
competent man at a salary of
ST 800 to $1,000 who would de.
vote his entire time to public
work. If the offices of secre
tary of the commercial club,
city auditor and secretary of
the county fair association
were all combined in one
efficient person who would
devote his entire time to their
advancement aud not he dis
tracted by his own private
business, the expense of his
salary would not be much
greater than the total now paid
several men. At present these
men carry on semi-public func-
tions as side-lines to more or
less distraction from their bus
iness. They simpely cannot
afford to give their best atten-
tion to public affairs. The
proposed change ought to COM
mand services of a man who
would actually bring new lines
of paying business to Wahpe-
ton. The present time is op-
perfume for considering it, for
Wahpeton seems to be on the
turn for healthy growth.

HANG E
School Officers Oh Legislation
Meet and Recommend I'm
portant Change.

At its annual meeting last
March, President NJ. n. Bor-
man of the Richland County
School Officers Association APP
pointed committee of five on
legislation as follows: b. w,
ShouweiIer. Alfred Coppin. Ole
1. Moer, James NcHugh and
F.. S. Cameron. AS a result of
a recent consultation between
Mr.. Bormau aud County Su-
perintendent, meeting of this
committee was held Saturday
afternoon the 9th inst, at the
County superintendent office
to consider possible improve
ments in the school laws, and
to formulate a statement of
recommended changes from
the standpoint of school boards.
Messrs. Borman, Moen. Gamer
on and Coppin attended. Mr..
McHugh could not come aniMr.
Schouweiler is no niger a
member.
Supt. Barnes plan is to fur
nish copy of this statement
to every county superintendent
of North Dakota, with the sug-
gestion that it be presented to
the school officers in each coun-
ty at their next annual meet
ing. If the changes recon-
mended by Richland County's
legislative committee m
good to school officers thruout
the state, it is expected that
they will pass resolutions of
approval. One can see that a
united demand from each of
the 46 counties of the state
ought to have great weight
with the next Legislature, and
probably result in changes
which all school officers every
where in the state w o u l d
recommend as needed.
The committee made no at
tempt to cover the entire field
of desired changes; but a few
conditions that are unjust in
the existing laws were picked

out and alterations called for
as follows:
Sec. 8O8 Amended covers
. meetings of the district school
board. Members receive $500
per year for their services, or
$500 for each quarterly meet
ing. 1t is recommended that
they receive $500 for h
special meeting which they at.
tend, mot exceeding eight in
any one Year, and also ten cents
a mile for distance actually and
necessarily travelled between
their homes and the place of
meeting i'll their districts, for
every meeting they attend.
In order to put no school Of
iicer to loss of money in attend.
ing annual meetings of the
school officers, it is recon-
mended that members a II d
clerks shall like wise receive
the ten cents mileage and $500
per day for distance and time
actually and necessarily con
sumed in attendance.
A request was made that the
committee on revision of the
school laws, which is to report
at the next meeting of the leg
islature. provide an arrange
ment such that entirely separ-
ate div 81 ons be made for laws
covering common school, spec
ial and independent school dis
tricts, with possibly a fourth
division covering provisions
which apply to all school dis
tricts in general. IF this can
not be done, a compilation ex.
Guiding provisions intended
for only special aud independ-
ent districts would save confu.
sion.
At the suggestion of Mr..
Cameron, it was recommended
that the state high g c b o o l
board be enlarged. Under Sec.
1881 it now consists of the gov
ernor, superintendent of public
instruction and president of
the state university. The two
added members should be ap-
pointed by the superintendent
of public instruction, one of
them a city superintende mt in
a district maintaining a first
class high school and the other
a county superintendent. In
