Fargo, May 29.-Attorney General
Miller has engaged Hon. T. F. McCue
of Darlington to take charge of the
interests OF the state in the appeal of
the railroad companies from the de-
cision Of the state supreme court in
the coal rate case Mr.: McCue was
attorney general when these cases
were brought and had full charge of
them personally and is therefore ia
miliar with every phase Of the litiga-
ton. The appeal is made directly to
the United States supreme court by
railroad companies. and the state
court has issued an order that the
statute rate be enforced pending the
decision on the appeal. The casf will
probably be argued this fall In Fash
ington:: Mr.. McCue Is in Fargo to-
day, and when asked If this report
was correct, responded:
eyes, Attorney General Miller has
asked me to appear in these cases for
the state, and I am very confident
that we have good case, though the
railroad companies will undoubtedly
make hard fight to have the ruling
of the state court set aside. Hardly
any one realizes how important this
case is to the people of North Dakota.
I find that even with our little laund-
ry at Darlington, it will effect a saw
ing of $500 per year on the cost of its
fuel" t,:4

A TRAGIC EXPERIENCE.
The Climax of a Woman's Return Tri
to Her Home.

The Climax Of Woman's Return Trip
to Her Home.
A New York woman had a curious
and tragic experience, one that seems
more like q grewsome page from
French fiction than the plain recital Of
fact.
This woman started out with her
husband to accompany him part way
on business trip he was taking to
a southern city. 1t was arranged that
she should stop to visit some friends
at point about halfway on the jour-
ney and after a two days stay should
proceed and rejoin her husband at his
destination and return with him. She
made her visit and when she reached
the town where she had expected to
meet her husband found that he was
not at the hotel where he had been
stopping, but had left hurriedly for
New York the day before. She waited
long enough to send kilograms to her
husbands office and to their house in
New York asking if he had arrived
and to receive a negative answer from
each place.
Concluding that he had been unable
to reach her by telegraph while she
was on the road, she decided to return
home. She was disappointed. but not
at all perturbed, as she journeyed
northward. She had to change cars
twice on. the way. Each change in
volved a wait of ten or fifteen min
utes at small junction town. AS she
was pacing up and down the station
platform at each Of these places she
saw q big. pine covered coffin box un-
loaded from the express car and put
aboard the northbound train. At Jer-
sey City the same box was being un-
loaded, and it crossed the ferry with
her in a hearse. She noted idly that
one of the hearse horses was white
and the other black. She went first
to her husbands office. but the hour
was late in the afternoon, and it was
closed. Then she went uptown to her
home.
AS she was about to enter the apart
ment house a hearse drawn by a
white horse and q black one drove up,
and the undertaken climbed down and
pressed the button below her name on
the row Of call bells at the entrance.
She asked him what 1t meant. Think
ing she was some inquiring stranger.
the undertaken told her that he was
bringing home the body Of a man who
had died on a train near the city
whence she had just come and that
the undertaken who had taken charge
of the body had forwarded it in COM
pliance with the dying mans request
In a daZe the woman asked the dead
mans name. Then she fell fainting
to the floor. 1t was her husband.-

Etiquette at Covent Garden.

Etiquette at Covent Garden Is al
most as strict as that which prevails
in the servants hall of great man.
sion, says London NJ. A. 2. No prima
donna must be addressed by an in
ferior, and the presentation Of bou-
quets is delicate matter, regulated
with due regard for the feelings of
the ladies. The claque still prevails
but, as only the less eminent singers
employ these 'aids to Success" nobody
is ever deceived. The management
knows nothing Of these men, who are
hired by the singers to 60 into the
gallery and applaud their employers
vociferously. The custom is very COM
mon on the continent, where it also
takes the more Objectionable form of
hiring men to hiss rivals off the stage.
Happily that sort Of thing would not
be tolerated in England, and SO the
claque is confined to the minor mem
bers Of the company. who bring over
with them an Unsuitable desire for ap-
plause and are so determined to get il
that they leave nothing to chance. The
claQuers receive a fee Of 2 shillings
in addition to the payment for theil
seats.
