THE N, r. DAN AT DICKINSON
Not DISTURBED.

Nassau William Senior. the English
political economist, was a frequent
guest Of Lord Lansdowne at Lans-
downe House and on n occasion was
busily writing, quite distracted as
usual, in a room full of company when
Tom Moore was singing. The scratch
Of his pen was not an agreeable ac-
compartment, and at last one of the
company asked very politely, "You are
not fond of music, Mr.. Senior?" NO"

THE WRONG NOTE.

Moxart's Outbreak at an Opera Per-.
Torrance at MarseiIles.
Mozart, being once on a visit at
Marseilles, went incognito to hear the
performance Of his 'villanella Rapita."
He had reason to be toaerably well
satisfied till in the midst Of the princi.
pal aria the orchestra, through some
error in the copying Of the score,
sounded a D natural where the com.
poser had written D sharp. This sub
%stitution did not injure the harmony,
but gave a commonplace character to
the phrase and obscured the sentiment
Of the composer.
Mozart no sooner heard it khan he
started up vehemently and from the
middle Of the pit cried out in a voice
Of thunder, "Will you play D sharp.
you wretchesr
The sensation produced in the thea
ter may be imagined. The actors were
astounded, the lady who vas singing
stopped short, the orchestra followed
her example, and the audience, with
loud EXPLANATIONS, demanded the ex-
pulsion Of the offender. He was &C.
cordingly seized and required to name
himself. He did SO, and at the name
of Mozart the clamor subsidized and
was succeeded by shouts Of applause
from all sides.
1t was insisted that the opera should
be recommended. Mozart was installed
in the orchestra and directed the
whole performance. This time the D
sharp a played in its proper place,
and the musicians themselves were
surprised at the superior effect pro
duced. After the opera Mozart was
conducted in triumph to his hotel.

COIN aRowlAa CONTEST
AND FARMERS IHsTlrUT

Superintendent Lloyd RAIDER is sending
out a circular letter to the members of
the corn growing contest in this county
which. it 10 hoped. will arouse General
inteEest not only in the contest but
in the farmers institute which win
be held in the armory at the same
time.
The full text Of the letter follows:
70 Members Of Corn Growing Contest -
Arrangements have now been COM
pleted for our corn contest which will
be held ip the armory in Dickinon on
the 18th of November in connection
with q Farmers' institute under the
supervision Of Supt. T. A. Hoverstad
of the Agricultural college of Fargo
and an excellent program will be ar
RANGED for that day and evening.
! sincerely hope that every boy and
girl in the county who have taken part
in the corn raising will be present and
that you will bring your parents and
friends with you as the meeting will
be interesting and instructive to all.
It is my belief that no part of educa-
tion is Of greater importance and Ger :
tainly no part SO sadly neglected as that
which has to do with the soil and its
products. It is q fact to be regretted
that a great state standing almost at
the head in agriculture should have done
so little in the past in the way of max
ing agriculture a part of the child's
early training. Beginning with this
month elementary agriculture will be
made a regular branch in the public
schools.
The main feature of this meeting will
be your corn exhibit. but in addition
to this will be samples of all kinds of
farm products including gains, grasses
and vegetables and I want you 10 send
me any fine sample you may have of
any farm product as well as your twelve
ears of corn and I shall see that it has
q place in the show and a card at
tached bearing the name of the person
who raised it.
Any Of these samples left at the
postofice in Antelope, State bank at
Richardton. Bank of Taylor. bank at
Gladstone OF bank at Belaeld will be
taken care of by me and brought to
Dickinson. These must be received at
this Office or left at one of the above
named places on or before November l..
I am depending on the school boys
and girls Of the county. to help me in
making this meeting a great success
and one of much interest to all and I
want you to interest your parents and
friends and ask them to come with you
and also bring or send some thing for
the exhibit. Let us make this the
starter of a stark county fair.
Very Respectfully.
Lloyd RAIDER.

MENT-TO FLY TODAY,

George L. Bumbaugh, the aviator
made his second successful flight yes
terday afternoon about o'clock in his
dirigible balloon. Captain Bumbaugh
remained in the air just seventeen
minutes. He flew from the starting
place, at South Eighth and H streets,
to the river, thence east on South A II
Eighth street and back again to his
headquarters.
1t is estimated that fully forty thous.
and persons witnessed the flight of the
big gas bag. propelled by four cycle
engine. and guided at will by the oper-
ator. To many who had not witnessed
the flight of the day previous the sight
was revelation. Especially was this
true to visiting farmers in the city yes
terday, who gazed in open-mouthed
establishment at the hugh monster of
the air, soaring as gracefully as a bird,
four hundred feet above terra firma
Only once did the aviator strike an
unusually strong current of air. How
ever the balloon did not become un-
manageable, and the captain soon re-
gained perfect control of the airship,
by nimbly jumping around on the light
frame work. The novelty is big fea-
ture for the festival and hundreds
were attracted to this city purely for
the purpose of witnessing the sensa-
tional flight of the air bird. Bum.
baugh will make another flight this
afternoon.

OLD TIME DENTISTRY.
o0eer lnstruneats In Harvard Den
tai Schools Collection.


Like many other Of the new" pro-
fessions. dentistry is q very old one.
1t is known that 100 years before the
beginning Of the Christian era Egyp-
tan dentists filled teeth with gold. but
no trace Of their methods Of doing their
work has ever been found. Aescula-
Plus, the patron Of physicians, was the
first famous dentist in Roman history.
and the old Romans used a toothpick
very much like the little wooden one
that is made today. The Arablans
ages ago produced a dentifrice, but II
soon seemed to be very generally used.
The story of dentistry is told In the
instruments it has employed. As they
ginning in the sixteenth century. but
their evolution has been slow. In the
Harvard Dental school In Boston there
is a collection Of instruments used by
dentists in the first half of the last CEN
fury. One OF the formidable tools it
includes is what was called a key,
doubtless from it's peculiar shape.
which was used for extracting teeth.
the process being to slowly and pain
fully twist and pry the offending molar
out Of its place. In order that no mis-
take should be made the dentist began
operations by hammering and prod
ding one tooth after another with q
sort Of bludgeon until he had satisfied
himself-not to mention the tortured
patient-that he had found the most
sensitive one and therefore the most
likely candidate for extraction.
The grandfathers Of the delicate steel
tools that lie In rows on the modern
dentists table were small in number,
but large In awfulness. There are in
the Harvard collection chisels and NAL
lets. rude forceps for removing the
teeth, miniature crowbars used to re-
pair cavities for filling. fles for sharp
ening the cutting and grinding sur
faces Of teeth and one particularly
horrid instrument, known as the pei
lean. with which teeth were Gifted"
How rapidly and recently dentistry
has become one of the important
sciences appears in the fact that In
the middle Of the last century black
smiths were doing their best-or worst
to relieve the victims Of the tooth
ache, while today institutions like the
Harvard Dental school attract stu
dents from all over the world. Be
sides. while It was sure torture to go
to the dentist in the so called good
old days" such a visit now In COM
paratively comfortable, so far has tho
profession gone In the direction Of per-
forming its operations without caus-
ing pain.

which this Nervine saved me.
